Hey Guys - just registered. nice to see this group. I have had my M003 for about 3 days now. of course - like everyone else - the charger went out in about 30 minutes (prong actually stayed in outlet when I pulled it out). After ripping it open and putting prong back in, i noticed the connectors were not touching. Chrome portion of screen also has some serious scratches under the surface. Anyways - thats the minor problem - the screen turns distorted and green after some time that I am now thinking has to do with the battery heating up. I am about to take the whole thing apart and have our company IT screw with it to see what can be upgraded/fixed so at least it works. So all in all - not my best purchase - wanted to see if anyone here has any advise. Has anyone had luck with warranty repair through Eken? Shenit, who i bought form is very flaky and won't respond. I guess thats what i get from buying from them. Thanks, JB

It's probably just bad soldering - easy fix

I had some similar issues as described here. Thought it was the batt at first. However, I loaded up the firmware over (don't use those Chinese sd cards.....seem to have another issue with that use a kingston or something) down loadable from slate droid as well, and then ensured all my app data for market and google apps and a few others were cleared. Seems to work fine now!

Hey guys, i recently purchased my M003 8 inch from bigboxstore.com, I got my piece after it was getting rotten in customs warehouse, guess what when i open it, the screen is cracked.I have 2 questions: I need to replace it but i am sure the buyer wont agree because they pretty much didnt respond efficiently when tablet was in transition from china. Now where can i get a replacement for a cracked screen that i have? my lcd works fine it shows the entire screen but i think the touch panel is gone due to the crack on the tablet. I cant click on any icons and they simply wont respond to touch.:mad: secondly, my tablet heats up pretty much on the reverse, any problem?I would really really appreciate if someone could help me with both my questions?thanks guys for listening up. Cheers.[quote name='JMB;7375]Hey Guys - just registered. nice to see this group.
