phone 1(brand new) - camera lens was pushed in(after buying a $500 phone and needing to have it for two years I want it to be perfect) - this was within the first 24 hours of receiving the phone from FedEx after waiting 3 weeks due to back orders.
phone2(brand new)- speaker blew
phone 3(refurb)- speaker blew
phone 4(refurb)- I think the recovery partition fudged up could have been from rooting, it was the weirdest thing, I flashed a ROM, shadow ROM to be exact(but not blaming that by any means), and instead of seeing my splash screen, I hear 3 beeps and black screen and the notification light is casually blinking green. I freak out. The only thing I can do is get into HBOOT mode, which took my phone from S-OFF, to S-ON(even weirder) and if I tried to get into recovery or start the phone or anything it would just 3 beep and blink the green light.. Well after some messing around I plugged it in and get a red light, so I turn it on, and it works,.. I think yay im saved.. no I pull out the power cord as its booting up and bang, 3 beep black screen blinking light. so I pull batt again!, and plug it in red light, turn it on and wait.. it fully boots!, it works normal, giving me root privileges still (even though it was clearly s-on) and I try a reboot, band 3 beep. so I pull batt and plug in get red light, and go to hboot(still s-on) and with it plugged in I could get into recovery, which was still cwm.. so Ithink sweet! and wipe everything and try installing a ROM to no avail without the power cord. eventually someone saved my life and got me a signed PB31IMG.zip for me to flash with s-on to get me to stock. it still gave me 3 beep without plugged in to power. but at least I was back to stock to send it back for my phone number 5 which is working good so far, and I'm not gong to be flashing ROMs like a mad man.(yes the MD5 matched up before I flashed the ROM, as I always check before ever flashing anything.
phone 5(refurb) working good.
this is within 3 months.
