XDA camera and software £51 plus p&p - MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories

For anybody interested, I saw this on ebay, there is a buy now option so you dont have to bid.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3347226287&category=42394

I bought one of these (can't resist gadgets).
It's OK and does what it's supposed to do. The included s/w is surprisingly good. Can't see myself using it very often though: my casio Exilim is not much bigger, and much better quality.
Bizarrely, what looks like a button on the front of the camera, is just decoration.

I have just ordered one from ebay. and when i asked the seller about the button. ... he said.......... Well its not a button its a mirror so you can set the timer and take a picture of yourself.

Sh*t it will be only shipped in the UK

The Seller is in the USA but will ship anywhere, If not i will get one and ship it to you if needed

i bought one, works well except it doesnt lock into the sd slot!! paid by paypal and had it 5 working days later.

the same here, it works ok and dose stay in the SD slot, but its not locked in tho.

i wonder why!??
i have the same problem too...
although i checked... the SD card looks exactly the same as an SD memory card...
why wont it lock?
i've see SD-FM Radio now too... and bluetooth
i wonder if they do the same.

they will require SDIO
i have the xda cam mine does the same also doent stay in but i must say video on them is quite good
pics arent to bad either

For Hungarian users:
The Speedshop GSM shop start to sell the SD camera for Wallaby:

AT&T Tilt without a camera?! WTF?

Hey All,
I recently bought a brand new AT&T Tilt off ebay that has no camera. I have been trying to get the camera working, but apparently it is pointless to try. The box says it has a 3.0mp camera and everywhere else in the documentation. I contacted the seller and he claims this is some rare business edition that has the camera removed. This really sucks he advertised it saying it had the camera, I need a camera on my phone for my work.
Is this really a legit product does AT&T really make these with the cameras removed?

It's the 8900 model that has the camera removed. The 8925 is the Tilt with the camera on it.
Check under the battery for the model number.
The regular Tilt should show:
KAIS100
The Tilt NC (Non Camera) (8900) should show:
KAIS110

Along with no camera, isn't this the model they also didn't include the video drivers in?
Oh wait a minute............

He needs his phone to not have a camera for work. You might be able to work out a trade.

Does anywhere on the posting of the auction does it say has a camera or not?
The auction says must be returned within 3 days, and i've spent the last 6 trying to figure out why the camera doesn't work. He won't take it back since it has been more than 3 days. Im going to leave neg feedback but that seems pointless since ebay is getting rid of it. I guess ill have to ebay it to someone else ;(
Does the back panel have a camera hole? Shouldn't take too long to figure out why the camera doesn't work from that.

It doesn't matter if it says 3 days or 6 days to return it back. If the auction was for att tilt with the camera, then you are entailed for what was auctioned.
File a claim with eBay (Paypal) and your money will be refunded to you. You have to ship back the item on your expense.
Can you post the link to the item in question?
KOR!
I would highly recommend adding something to let the bidders know it doesn't have a camera so they don't make the same mistake you did. As you well know, just not mentioning a camera, doesn't mean they won't assume there isn't one.

Fully agree!
Not only that the listing in the above link reads:
Brand: HTC
Model: 8925
Type: Smartphone (PDA Phone)
Camera: --
Condition: --
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Since the PDA Phone is listed as Model: 8925, therefore according to the specs of the model, the PDA Phone should have a camera. Thus, the buyer can claim refund based on truth in adverting. Of course, the model: 8900, has the camera removed.
KOR!

All over that page it says No Camera. I can understand how someone might not catch it if because you just assume all new cell phones have a camera, but to come on here and say "he advertised it saying it had the camera" is just wrong.
Check with the guy from my post #5. And I still say you should bite the bullet and say in big bold NO CAMERA if you sell it on Ebay. Do the right thing.
Good Luck,
Feedback regarding Sellers still exists

I agree 100%. The auction says "This version comes without the camera." What more can the seller do? He says it in at least 3 places.
Seems negative feedback to this seller would be terribly unwarranted.
If that is the actual link to the ebay listing, you should not leave him negative feedback. It clearly states no camera. I sell quite a bit on ebay and try to list things clearly. People do make mistakes, I understand, but don't leave negative feedback for your mistake.
Jefff
Note: Seller's Brother. I am an eBay seller on eBay but I will keep who I am private if the buyer chooses to retaliate against myself as well.
I rarely go on here but my brother forwarded a message to me from a potential buyer on eBay regarding this (thank you). He has a lot of finals right now so he may leave a reply.
The listing is quite clear of there being no camera. When purchasing an item, it be good if you paid attention to the FEATURES listed.
I don't see how my brother ever fooled you into purchasing a CAMERA VERSION Tilt. If you are to spend this kind of money on a phone, it be good researching what 8900 meant when you saw everyone having the 8925 model listed in the keywords.
Yeah dude you have to read carefully. Sell it.
Aint no sympathy from me, it does clearly state that the model is without camera
Mixed messages
Yes... it does say no camera on there a couple times... but the model number also is listed as AT&T 8925... not AT&T 8900... so overall mixed messages. I could see this either way. The buyer should have requested more info though prior to buying.
Ebay said:
This one is Europe/Asia model, it may not work with 850mhz in US, please note that if you buy it and it doesn't work we will not be responsible. It will work with any other GSM in US only for AT&T 850mhz it may not work. It is your responsibility to make sure your carrier will accept this gsm frequency . we don't issue refunds for no connects .

I hope he doesn't post on here in a while that he was sold a phone advertised to work in North America and it doesn't.

anyone want to swap tilt vs. kaiser?

i will give my tilt, (it's in mint condition) and a black crystal cover (even some bucks) for an htc tytnII even with scratches or little dents (not on the screen).
thank you
ken
......error:553177900......cannot compute.....process invalid.......SCREEN
...Are you serious?
i am completely serious... i know that noone want to do this but i'll ask...
are you selling your tilt at all?..if so how much?
i want to swap my tilt with a kaiser but if noone comes out i'll sell it an buy a kaiser. i'll sell it for 420USD + shipping (420USD is likely 320Euros).
It has a black crystal cover, 3.5" headphone adapter with mic., it's in MINT condition and always had a screen protector on it.
errrr .... no
sorry!
edit: nm - I miss-read your post
Why sell it ?
if you need the second camera, there is a mod here on the forums will show you how to add it , and software wise there are so many roms here , that i am sure one of them will fit your needs,
BTW not to rain on your parade, the going price here in the states is about $300 more or less
i know what you ar sayin but i can't find a front camera nowhere in the forum nor in fleabay, i searched everywhere and offered a bounty if someone find it but noone answered, maybe u can tell me more, i'm very addicted to my kaiser i dont want to sell mine but i have to if i dont find a solution.
You must be proud of your tilt.
Here are some good links to read, but i have not found the thread that has step by step instructions for adding the camera....give me a bit to find it...

Lets us know if you find it.....
FYI I know there was a thread for doing this, but search is not bring it up
I will sell you my TYTN II for 200 euros. Ita in mint condition with a lot of added applications (tom tom 7 with maps, skyfire, memmaid etc. Also I have the desktop charger and case.
@ F2504x4: the thread on howardforums is what i saw for making an idea on what i have to do. if you take apart your tilt you will find a chip where the front cam have to go inserted, and then you have to buy a new front face cover with the cam cover. the mobo already has the connector for the front cam it's a plug'n'play thing. but i cant find the cam nowhere in the wole internet!!!
@leon sprouse: i know you want to sell me your tytnII the price is so good but i have to sell my tilt first because i have no money to afford yours
anyways thank you for the advice and for the time giving to me

@chumley EX: i am very proud and satysfied of my tilt but i live in Italy and my girlfriend whant to videocall me because i work far away from home
Does it transform or something different than the other Tilts or is the proudness you have for the phone the reasoning behind the jacked up price?

are you A Professional thread crapper?
I don't think he is, but $450 for a Tilt... I bought my Tytn 2 with 2 extra batteries and an additional pouch for $430 6 months ago. Tilts were already going for $350 at that time
@chumley EX: why don't you chill out boy? i'm just tryin to sell my tilt!
Maybe the price is too high, maybe i can sell it for lower but if i sell my tilt for lower i can't buy a tytnII because it is more expensive
i can sell it for no less than 250€

Next can you use punctuation, it makes it a lot easier to read!
I would expect (maybe) $140 (£65~) to $180 (£110~)
But the prices in the usa may differ from me just converting the prices!
Go on eBay and put some g1s similar to yours, on your watching list and see what they go for.
Hope this helps!
Thanks dude yea i know BIG difference overseas $$$ LOL

[Q] Spare part : sim reader

Hello,
Some days are better than others...
I managed to break several of the small metal pins in the sim reader, don't ask me how but I did it =(
I unmounted the phone and it's really just a small circuit board linked to the motherboard with a single ribbon
I have googled for where to find this spare part but no chance so far
Would you know where I could find this part and help me revive my Nexus S ?
Thanks for your help
Thanks for deleting my useless post : just found out a link in the post below !
Sorry =(
Did you find a solution ? My sim card reader (or sim card tray) is broken too and I can't find the replacement part to buy...
Couldn't you guys just do a warranty claim? It shouldn't break that easily unless you were messing with it.
I can't claim warranty since it's "customer induced damage" : needed to insert my sim card into an Ipad. Not willing to lose my micro sim adapter, I put it in the Nexus S without a sim in an tore the pins when taking it out
Moreover, I live in Europe and Samsung has after-sales per region, if not country. they would'nt accept an US purchased handset anyway.
Didn't find any trace of this spare part on any other site but globaldirectpart and it's still showing as "Coming soon"....
I am in Brazil and the phone hasn't arrived in here so Samsung Brasil don't touch it.... despite the fact that they are going to say that this is not covered by warranty.
I did not find anywhere else too...
How about insurance then? But I'm assuming you don't have that either or can't.
Good luck to finding the part though. Globaldirectpart seems to have a tendency of inflating price.

Don't have any insurance for my phones and it wouldn't work either cos I damaged the phone myself =)
I don't really mind the price since it would cost me about 50 euros including shipping due to the exchange rate between $ and €. Just missing my phone a lot and tired of waiting =)

http://www.globaldirectparts.com/Nexus-S-GT-I9020T-SIM-Card-Tray-p/smsng6098700.htm
Thanks but we've known that for weeks =)
The best part is the "Coming soon" !!!
Yep! We still waiting for the replacement part to be available... I read about a guy that replaced it with a Galaxy S part... but I did not figure out how.
I called a few suppliers in Asia but no luck so far
it's killing me to have my Nexus S in a drawer for a 10 bucks spare part =(
Yes, me too... that's why I love Apple and my iPhone... Samsung sucks... If I find it anywhere I will post it. I will try to find some more information about replacing it with Galaxy S part.
Do you have any link about this guy using the Galaxy S tray ?
update
Anyone have an update on this? I just broke one of the pins inside the sim tray as well....I am unable to find the parts anywhere online. This is driving me nuts....I'll even pay to repair it!
How did you break yours? I can see the op breaking his with an empty micro sim adapter, but if this is breaking from normal usage, that's not good..
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
Not yet. I've read that it is possible to replace it with the Galaxy S sim tray. I've bought one and I am waiting it to arrive. I should have it in one week.
It seems that this sim tray is not good at all...
Bad News! The Galaxy S connector is different from the Nexus S one. Look at the picture:
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
I believe that the guy who changed it, changed only the sim part, keeping the "sim board" the same... I don't know how to do it, I will try to find out, if anyone know, please help me.
if you read the post carefully, the guy did say sim tray, you can use most sim tray, as long as the pins are position 3+3 at each sides, but you must know how to solder/desolder.
Do you know how do I do it ? I know how to solder/desolder, but I don't know exactly what should I do.
Here is a picture of the Galaxy S Sim Tray. Should I desolder this points marked by the red arrow (and off course in the oposite side) and sold it to the Nexus S board ? Is the sim tray just fixed by this solded points ?
