Cingular 8125

Wizard

The Cingular 8125 (also known in Latin America as QTEK A9100) takes the features and power of the 2125, a world phone, a messaging device, and an entertainment center and ratchets up the functionality with large QWERTY keyboard and bigger display. The Cingular 8100 is the same but without the camera.

This device is very similar to the T-Mobile MDA, the QTek 9100, and other HTC Wizard WIZA100-based devices, with most of the differences being with the buttons and with the keyboard design, but there may be some hidden differences. Check the T-Mobile MDA pages for more information.

This device uses Windows Mobile 5 (WM5), so software and tips intended for other WM5 devices may work on this one also.

richbutler1 8125 touch screen failure design flaw, reply 2 get noticed by HTC (page: 1 2) 32 Apr 19 2008, 11:20 AM EDT by Anonymous
Thread started: Nov 14 2007, 7:48 PM EST  Watch
My 8125 touch screen has failed. I also just went past warranty period. I've seen hundeds of others with the same issue while googling a fix...none to be found expect shelling out more cash on a flawed product. If you are sick of companies like this putting products out that are not well tested or ready for prime time and want to spend a couple of minutes to do something about it read on:

1) Post a reply to this thread and state your problem; let this be one master list of those with this issue
2) If you are an HTC representative, let your company know that we are upset and demand an appropriate replacement/fix immediately even for those outside of warranty. This is a pervasive design flaw and you know it
3) Send an email to HTC and let them know you are upset and the problem, it's easy start here: http://member.htc.com/CustomerService/CS_Mail.aspx
4) If you know of a writer in a major technical magazine, I would love to tell them my experience and would put some time and effort into finding others with this same product defect problem
5) If you are or know a lawyer interested in looking into or starting a class action lawsuit against HTC, please contact me at richbutler1 *** a *** yahoo *** com

I am not a litigious person, but this is not right and HTC is skirting the issue. You should really carefully consider their products if this is their behavior.
