Should I get the -update1 OTB for recently bought? - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just wonder if someone can tell me: I bought a brand new Nexus One Tmobile a couple days ago. I thought I would get the -update1 (ERE27) right out of the box, but surprisingly I didn't. However, I did receive the OTA update after a couple hours later though. Is it normal, hope it wasn't refurbished?

If it was manufactured and packed prior to the ERE27 release then I can't see any reason they'd unbox and reflash every device. I'd imagine they will ship and receive the OTA like any other phone manufactured during that time period. I don't think this is any indication it is a refurb.

at&ts release for 6.1 for tilt?

does anyone know when its going to go down? i know they said mid july, but i haven't heard anything about a release date from those guys yet...
It should be out towards the end of the month. I heard they were shipping Tilts with 6.1 now.
only at&t would do something that weird, ship them before they have the update available for download on their site.

The most hilarious/pathetic thing is I'm going to have to ship this one back too for replacement

Son, you have issues.
Seriously I've had my Tilt for over 8 months now and it still works great.
checked ATT's forums yesterday and on their forum there is a thread saying it's rumored to be released the 20th.

Well, I think it would have been nicer, and more accurate to say my phones have issues.
I have gone through 6 Tilts in the following manner.
-The first 2 had non functioning speaker phones. I received them this way, I did not break them. I actually kept one like this for several months, out of sheer frustration of dealing with hours on the phone to AT&T again.
-The next one the microphone did not work at all, not for placing calls, receiving calls, not on speakerphone, and did not even work for recording. The phone never worked, it was received with a non functioning microphone.
-One arrived with glue all over the casing
-The following one began (after 3 months) to lose signal completely. The signal would be at 2 bars, then shoot up to 4 bars for a second, then drop completely out, and would not recover for several minutes. This happened at times and in locations where my other telephone (Razr V3xx) had perfect 4 bar reception. By the way, the phone was never dropped, or in a any way damaged, and was always kept in a case when not in use. I tried everything including disabling 3G, changing radios etc. Several soft and hard resets, and many missed calls later I decided it could not be normal behavior, which was confirmed by AT&T.
-And finally the last one I received on Monday, arrived with a broken "tilt" mechanism. In order to tilt the screen, it must be forcefully pushed, at which time it makes a horrible creaking noise as if it's going to break.

I'm on Tilt #5 myself. But I only count 2 since AT&T caused the other three.
1: Had since launch. Face buttons stopped working
2: Refurb replacement. Scratched camera, keyboard, and loose hinges.
3: Refurb replacement. Scratched keyboard, and loose hinges.

OMG, you got bluetooth headphone?! How did you manage that? Any suggestions as to what I should say to them to hopefully get some too, after going through so many crappy phones? Right now, I am stuck with one that doesn't even have basic phone signal at times.
PS: What kind of headphones?

Anybody Sent Their N1 to HTC for Hardware Issues?

I need to send my phone in to have the screen replaced, but they did give me a disclaimer. They said should the phone not be able to be reflashed, they'd have to replace the motherboard.
Anybody send in their phone with a different ROM loaded, or should I just restore to factory before sending in?
Thanks.
should be in QA anyways I had my bootloader unlocked sent it in to HTC and they replaced the motherboard meaning the IMEI was different but I have the same phone come back to me because the serial number stayed the same weird. But came back in a locked state. try to make it as stock as possible when I spoke to the rep they said they gave ma a courtesy repair..
I sent my phone in with the unofficial ERE36B installed (with locked bootloader) and they reflashed it with ERE27 for me.
And it would appear they forgot to set the S-ON flag as well, so yay me.
I sent my phone off for the 3rd time this week. Each time I have been unlocked and had a custom rom installed.
1. Teflon peeled off on the chin (March 2010)
2. Dust under the left bottom corner of screen (May 2010)
3. Dust under right top of screen! (June 2010)
The 3rd time I rung them as I am currently in California on business, I asked for a straight swap (as I know they do in the US), and they happily sent a replacement to my supplier in Orange county for my attention.
Boxed my old one up and they collected and delivered it to HTC today.
VERY VERY pleased with the service they have given me, each time I received my original back, it had been reflashed to locked and stock rom.
What was amazing is how dirty my trackball was, it was virtually black in comparison to a new handset and I treat my N1 like a baby.
However I'm pleased we can now root without unlocking the bootloader, guess what I'll be doing when I get back ;-)
HTH.
Interesting Amdathlonuk. Did yours go to Houston TX? Or a different facility?
My N1 was mailed off end of June, overnight. It was scanned in on July 2nd. I'm finally getting the phone back tomorrow. It's taken three weeks to get the damn thing back. My service experience has been awful.
I was using a RAZR for the time being, because I couldn't get a G1 Dream to work on ATT. I was able to get it activated and have been using the G1 for the past three weeks. I thought that I would be happy with the G1, but I'm ready to throw the stupid POS into the ocean. That phone sucks. Just get me my N1 back.

That's discouraging for me. I sent mine back a week ago (got delivered Monday), for a supposed straight swap. I still haven't heard anything back from them. A swap shouldn't take 4 days?

PSA: check for dead pixels

Just as a heads up to all the new Nexus owners, and to future owners: check for dead pixels, immediately and a few hours later. Just a few minutes ago, I had one rear its ugly head. Call Google and they'll do an advance replacement no questions asked.
Annoying, but hey.

Generally an "Advanced Replacement" Implies that they either cross ship, you a new one as soon as yours is in the mail, or they send you the box to ship the old one back when they send the new one out. Can't really speak to which way Google is doing it. But hopefully someone who's started the process can provide better details.

With the N4, they would put a charge on your credit card while they send out the replacement. Then you put your phone in the replacement's box and ship back with the prepaid label. When they get it back they remove the charge. I believe the hold charge was $200.
How are you even spotting pixels, a magnifying glass? Lol

This is what they're doing, they give you a link to order a replacement where they place a hold charge on a card. They give you a pre-paid shipping label and tell me I'm free to ship the device back to them whenever and in the box it came in. So, I'll wait until I receive my replacement before shipping the defective device out.

:cyclops: I have good eyes, lol. When I saw this thread I used a dead pixel locating app that simply shows solid colors on the screen. My dead pixel is located around the top right corner. The pixels are so small I can't really imagine how I'd ever notice a problem during any normal use.
You can unstick some pixels (not dead pixels) by re-energizing them through rapidly turning them on and off. There are apps on Google play that you can test and unstick (some) pixels, or you can return the phone.

Then get an advance swap. Use the existing one for however many weeks it takes, and then send your original back after the new one arrives.
Might help to unlock the bootloader now, so that when it's time for the swap you can take a nandroid backup and preserve your app data. Relock and flash to stock after backing up and before you send it back in.
Update: all replacement orders are placed on the same queue as everyone else. My replacement device is set to leave the warehouse in 2-3 weeks, and according to my receipt, I have 21 days from the day my replacement order was placed to ship my defective device back to Google.
Conclusion? I'll be without a Nexus 5 for an undetermined amount of time. Luckily I still have my old HTC One, but this is something you'll want to know, especially if you don't have a backup device.

That's what I thought, but I called to double check and the representative confirmed that the email wording is correct: it's 21 days from the day the replacement order is placed. Obviously I was miffed, but she told me there's nothing I can do and that the best she can advise is to wait as long as possible before sending out my defective phone.
Annoying.
Edit: I emailed the representative I spoke to last night for clarification. The woman on the phone today seemed to think what we all thought (that the 21 days starts from the day of receipt of the replacement), so perhaps there's some confusion as to the official modus operandi. I'll report back whenever he gets back to me.

Normally I would consider doing something like this, but given Google's track record, I have no confidence that stock levels will be restored anytime soon. As I said before, luckily I have my HTC One to fall back on, but I'll still hold onto my 5 for a week. I was reading the defects thread and it seems people are getting RMA devices faster than those who order normally despite what the Play page tells.

With my Nexus 7 3G, it took over a week for the replacement to arrive and then I was out of town for two weeks before I could pick up the package as it missed delivery on the day of my flight out. By the time I sent it in, it was slightly beyond three weeks. I was never charged extra. I phoned Google to be sure, and they said that if they charge me and then end up receiving the device back after all, they will reverse the charge.

Anyone RMA their n6 through motorola recently?

I started my RMA on Dec 3 and I still have no progress made on it after several "supervisor" escalations. I attempted to call and talk and short of blowing up their social media, I have no idea what else to do. They just keep telling me to wait 72 hours after escalation but considering its been a day short of 3 weeks without my device, i'm getting immensely frustrated considering I JUST had to go through this for my Moto360 (which took 1.5 months). Anyone have any tips to try and get the ball rolling so I can have my phone back before christmas? I'm stuck using an OPO right now and its horrible compared to the 6.
I had to open an RMA on 12/8. They got my device and that was all I knew. I actuallt called this morning to see what the status was becasue the site doesn't give you much. Thy told me they had the device and that I should be getting my replacement n 4 to 5 business days.
Did you get an email that they received your device? Otherwise I'd call back and have them make sure to get that process started. They had to issue me a new RMA number since "the system" didn't process my phone when they received it.

Question Reaching a dead end with Google Support

I'm here because I don't know what else to do.
I ordered a Pixel 7 from the official Google Store on October the 7th, received the phone on the 15th, and discovered right away that the rear cameras aren't working. I tried everything but it was clear it was a hardware issue. I called Google Support. They went through many steps to try and fix the issue but nothing worked. So I was prompted to get a replacement device. I sent my phone back on the same day with UPS, and 2 days later the phone reached its destination (I have a proof of delivery). And since then I got complete silence from Google.
I already talked to them twice, inquiring about the whereabouts of my replacement device, or the whole replacement process, but I got nothing. My RMA status page on the Google Store website is empty, doesn't show my returned phone nor my replacement device. Yesterday I went through the 3rd phone call with Google, was told that my case will be handled by the Pixel management team or so, and that I should hang up and wait for an answer from them later.
I just left off the chat with Google Support again. They told me that another agent is already working on the issue and that I should check my email. I haven't received any emails, of course.
It's been more than 2 weeks since I placed my order for this phone. Is this what I get for ordering their new device on the announcement day? And what other steps can I take in order to get my replacement device?
Same case than you but the problem was bubles beetween frame and screen.waiting for a solution.
1 week and no new notice.
i think someone is stealing packages or something between destination and the store or something.This is not normal...

Be careful disputing the charges. Google has deactivated the associated account of people that have done that in the past. Everything just goes poof.

I have actually been doing that today and they are just as useless.
First they tried to send me back to phone support after I told them I had tried that twice already
Then they asked me to send the details over via DM only for them to then tell me the same as phone support "We have escalated to one of our specialists who will investigate and be in touch via email" - no one gets in touch, no emails, nothing.
Totally useless.

Google store has notoriously terrible support. Just the other day they literally told me to go take my business elsewhere because I wanted to get a pixel 7 pro.
A friend of mine once ordered a pixel phone and he got a pixel box with no phone in it. He spent hours trying to prove it and work it out, the shipping weight was off so there was hard of it and right there, but Google refused to do anything. Lost a customer for life over that.
Just a general FYI, if you RMA anything with almost any company using the device's warranty, the replacement is "refurbished” i.e not brand new.

Yes I had that happen before with them trying to fob me off with a refurb in exchange for a phone which was just weeks old.
This time I told them I just wanted a full refund as I only had the phone 3 days before the screen up and died on me.
I had issues with the P6 and now issues with the P7
This whole thing has left a real bad taste in my mouth and I can not see my self buying another Google product again after this.

Yep, the only reason I bought my phone through Google was the store credit + Google One 10% and even then I was crossing my fingers hoping nothing was wrong with it because I know first hand and second hand what a nightmare it is to deal with their Store support. I think the phrase "Too Big to Care" applies to Google.
I could have gone to Best Buy and gotten a $200 credit there (same phone trade in value offered as Google Store) and in retrospect, I probably should have done that since Google Store only offers overpriced accessories ($90 for a Wireless stand charger!?)

Let me get this right. You sent the phone back on 15th and it took 2 days to ship (17th?). And you got your money back 25th? Which means your phone was in support center for just over a week?
For me this is totally normal, never got my phone back in one week if it needed maintenance.
And I know that Google can be a piece of fieces, I've fought with them about my Pixel 3 for 5 months. That was long. Week? Nah bro, you're fine.
