i need to find out how to download games in to my palm pre..can anyone help? also theres a messga telling me that i might have lost data to call sprint..does that mean i have to reset my palm to restore?
I have the same exact crack in my phone…starts at the power jack input and is slowly creeping into my screen….great
are all the phones like that or just mine and yours. I don’t wanna have to go back to bell and then have it happen again.
it was just the newer ones that had these problems because pre tried to produce these things wayyyy to quickly. dumbasses
I have a crack in the top left corner of mine. My power button also stopped working today :/
I have about a milimetre of play, do you think I should exchange?
to all that are flaming this gentleman, you better get to know your facts. many, many, early pre adopters had this issue. some cracks originated from the side and some from the center button.
dieter bohn is a respectable palm owner and reviewer, not just some schmuck.
And this is why theyre releasing the Palm Pixi
OMG…what a dumbass! To anyone that owns a Plam Pre. The only way your Pre would be f*cked like this guys is if you dropped it. I can’t believe anyone that would drop their phone would make a Youtube vid and make it seem it was a Palm Pre defect. Welcome to America…I guess…LAME VID!!!
hey my touch screen doesnt want 2 work no more nd i need help plz right bak
he probly droped it
mine slides side to side a lot too and in the top left corner when u press on it it squeaks
Honestly, I was just about to buy one. Now, no way. I think I’ll wait on the second gen.
Wow. From a few iPhone videos I just watched and people bashing it after, I thought the pre was made out of gold, wipes your ass, and did your laundry. I guess it has it’s problems too.
I really could care less about the hardware.. mine is mostly intact.
WTF is up with not being able to Copy and Paste in the body of a TEXT..no TEXT FORWARDING?
It is like they skipped all the little details
please tell if i just dont know what im doing with the phone
I’ve had my pre for a few days now… And I treat it like a baby. I actually still keep it in the little case it came with until I can get an Invishield for it. I guess Im not like most people who treat the phone like its meant for war… its a plastic phone, treat it as such, and ya wont have any issues.
So if you bought your pre at a corporate sprint store, and you have any issues, you should take it back before the 30 day mark…
PS To the guy who made this video. You know that crack by the battery door is your fault! How the hell did that happen? LOL & I seen the matte-black-battery cover i know you have the touchstone charger.. LOL
The front half of my screen is loose so my pre makes the same wobbly noise! I took it back to Wireless Wizards (3rd party store) yesterday and they ordered a “replacement” phone for me. So i should have my NEW PRE tomorrow FREE OF CHARGE.
I do have warranty which is why the replacement phone is free, & I am passed the 30 day mark (bought my pre the 1st day it came out) but its not a problem, and I was told i probably would have had to pay if I had bought it at a corporate sprint store.
I actually switched FROM the Iphone 3G to the Pre, I love mine, now that I’ve exchanged it–mine had a couple of those issues, plus a speaker hiss every time I closed an app. Not that big a deal to me…iphone is good, pre is good–fanboys are dumb as hell. Both are going to give the smartphone market some needed competition.
He’s using the Touchstone battery back cover.
I must be lucky because I have not had any issues like this with my Palm Pre. Palm really needs to watch their QA if they want to beat Apple. I know that I got a newer shipment of Palm Pres so maybe I got a newer version.
The Palm Pre in your video also has a non-glossy back. Mine does like the front does, that’s weird. I wonder if you got an older model.
whatever you say…btw, you wouldn’t happen to have a relative named Felix Unger, do you?
