I seriously skeptical about that. Have you ask the local Samsung service center if they can service this model?

TS,

Time to go to V11.

can check for me if local samsung service center can repair captivate?

if can then my target will be captivate, if not....still donno

The seller gave me a warranty card from the supplier. So yeah, have to go to the supplier's location to claim the warranty.


Right now at my hometown for 2 weeks bro. Don't think my place have a samsung service center.

can help me online ask?
I donno where can ask...

AFAIK, samsung don't do repair for AP products. even if paid

so where can i repair it?

AP company where u buy it. so, if want to buy AP samsung phone, better buy from AP company that is, well, u can expect to stand strong for next 2-3 years unlike SE/nokia, u can still send AP phones to their respective repair agent, but must paid as it is not ori.

to the same ap company that I buy from?
free of charge? during warranty period and after warranty period?

after warranty, need to pay lor btw, warranty is based on terms and condition too. like, waterdamage, usually no warranty

i just scare after warranty no place to repair it, and must send back to US to repair
or when the parts need to be replace, need to wait the parts send from US to repair...

if the above condition wont happen, then i will choose it.

i'm searching for a cheap, basic phone with the best reception. my w660i always looses signal when i'm in rural or small kampung area.

pls recommend.

For really basic, try a Nokia C1-00. Good reception and excellent battery life

For something a bit more, get a Nokia X2. Also good reception (tested reception in pasir puteh ) and with 5MP camera, stereo loudspeakers and priced at only about RM320 brand new

AP company likes PDAgadgets can stand loong if u buy from them

u confirm it is not because of your telco reception?

1. Brand - any
2. Budget - 300-500
3. Specs - any
4. Type/Size. - any

i am considering SE elm and Nokia 5230 which is better.

so even after warranty, they still offer repairing service just need to pay only?

if i buy from lowyat forum(garage sales), then after warranty everything gone?

What is the main purpose for you to get a new phone?

If i am not mistaken, user still have to pay for the hardware except for the manufacturing defect despite phone is still under warranty.

they got their own AP company. check with seller first like pda gadgets, it is at mid valley. but sometimes, there is always lots of repair shop

so if i buy this phone, sure got place where i can repair the phone?

and the time needed will be very long? in case it need to replace parts...?

For Samsung, it is hard to say. But mostly, Nokia and SE users no need to worry no 1 to repair their phone if anything goes wrong.

Spare parts is a major issue, but finding the person who knows how to repair it is not easy as well.

then what should I do?

does samsung wave 2 ( bada os) support flash?
