My 1.5 yrs old HTC 820 Desire crashed randomly after a Software update from HTC . It was a 25 k phone and now the HTC service center is telling me that mother board is gone and they need 12000 Rs to repair that.
i have read on android forums & many people are complaining about the same.
This looks like a trick /error caused by HTC corporation where in they infect these phones through their update. Cheap tactics by companies like this should be stopped by Government. They should either recall their phones or repair it for free as it is a common problem caused by their own software update.
Why should consumers pay for faulty design. Indian consumers are not dumping yards for faults product designs. Had this been somewhere else in the world heavy penalties would have been imposed. for more similar grievances please open the link below.
