I had a weird problem last week whereby my screen froze. Carried out hard and soft reset and then a factory reset (2*soft keys and reset button).

Once factory reset, I had the problem when your device boots up and you need to tap the screen to set the device up and the screen would not respond to any taps.

A couple of days later (I had reverted back to my old Wizard), the phone came to life but acted strangely. Sometimes it was if the screen had been pressed 100’s of time in different places, and it scrolled through all the apps on the screen until I pressed the Sleep button.

Now it seems to work OK, but will randomly lock up. Also there is a faint line about 2 or 3 pixels wide all the way along the left hand side of the screen. So its looks as though the screen / digitiser is buggered.

Also the USB socket seems to be a bit cracked and does not look straight.

I was using Schap 2.3 and am worried if I hand it in to tmob to fix will they refuse due to the non-standard rom. I have read through the sticky above, but there only seems to be ROMs for the HTC and AT&T models.

Is it worth risking handing it in as is, or do I really need to revert back to the original set-up,a nyone in the UK had there Kasier fixed with a non-standard ROM?

Thanks

check link in my signature - i made some legal steps against t-fuck UK, so dont worry, just go to the shop and ask them to carry out warranty repair, if it will be declined(it'll take about a month I guess) follow my steps. If U'll need any explanations....help just contact me thru PM, ICQ... I' be glad 2 hlp U and fuck them again :-)

there's a dumped original t-mobile rom available here so you can always flash it and then return the phone.

i live in the netherlands ,and here you can do whatever you like with your tmobile phone, as long as it fits in the warranty, when you return it to the shop i change nothing and they say nothing. had a universal before and had to bring it back for 4 times, evry time with another rom... and no complaines.
