G1 Woes
Currently dealing with TMobile G1 issues.
My original G1 (HTC Dream) has integrity issues – things go corrupt and apps get trashed for no reason. I’ve done like 3 factory resets and formatted the SD Card a few times but I just needed a new HTC Dream. Clearly this one’s fubar. Called TMobile and they say “sure, we’ll send you a new or like new G1″. Yeah… I got the “like new” treatement because the new replacement has an issue with the SIM card. It can’t communicate with the SIM card after 10 minutes. I called TMobile and they’re going to send me ANOTHER new or like new G1.
And then the smarmy rep says to me (after I explain to him that they deal with so many G1 returns for tech issues that they can’t possibly be spending enough time with each unit to fully test it and make sure it’s really refurbished and fixed).. he says “Oh, I’m sure you’re gonna get a good one this time”. Like he has any clue what I’m going to get from the factory. All he’s doing is fielding upset calls on the phone and punching requests into a queue for the factory to fulfill. Yeah, he’s suuure. :)
I’ll give them one more chance. If they fk it up again, I’m running to the Droid (drool).
