AT&T Tilt Speaker/Microphone Broken *YIKES* Replacement? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I successfully replaced some hardware on my AT&T Tilt to OEM hardware however one of the gold contact points on the object that seems to be the speaker/microphone flew off somehow... I tried to ghetto duct-tape it but I can't hear or receive sound - I can only get sound on speakerphone but nobody can hear me.
****. Can I buy this piece?

bump because I'm scared

it is on the inside of the face plate? Right behind the blinking lights?

Calling with speaker on, problem.

Hi,
When I'm making a call with my Kaiser using speaker on option, receiver can't hear me, sometimes it works but usually don't.
I have found on the web other people having the same problem with this phone.
Is there any solution for that ? Does anyone of you have this problem aswell ?
Your not alone! I get that same problem... if you find something out let me know. I thought I was the only one. I'm afraid to send my phone in because i'll get a refurb back and I don't like refurbs at all.
Hi:
You probably won't get a refurb, I think they must not have refurbs yet.
The reason I say this, is that I have had 3 Tilts so far, and STILL have the speaker issue. All 3 had the same white sticker as my new one(I believe the sticker color is what indicates whether it is a refurb or not, but don't shoot me if I'm wrong ).
Anyway, I have decided I just have to live with the dysfunctional speakerphone, because it's either that, or switch to another phone, which I can't do, since I love the Tilt
Some people have suggested that turning off Microphone AGC in system helps, but it did nothing for me.
PS: Please post here if anyone finds a solution to the speakerphone issue.
Same here
I have the same problem.. I realized it recently and it has been a huge disappointment.
Trying being on a work call. It's a disaster.
I have no idea what to do now?
i have the same thing all the units are not usable for speakerphone i dont know anyone that doesnt have the same problem

Ever try a non ATT rom? I bought my tilt and just flashed it without touching the AT&T stuff and it seems to work fine...

Honestly I am not very tech saavy, and am afraid to flash since it would void my warranty. For example, if I get the red light of death, and I have the wrong ROM on it, I'd be out of luck, and right now I am way too broke to take that chance lol.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

Lol I just saw your RLoD posts in the upgrading forum. And its just me, but I find frying the phone usually works really well for warranty service. >_>

Calling Warranty People...

Hey,
My phone's charging port broke. Like the actual phone charging part broke, not the adapter(obviously, lol).
Anyways, what can I do? I'm under warranty and am going to call them, but they say I shouldn't say what actually happened as the problem. I also have a different ROM than the ATT Rom, but can't change it back.
I'm also interested in the Fuze, but I doubt I can exchange for that? If I can, what do I need to do, but if not what should I say for a good excuse to get me a new phone?
Thanks a bunch guys
Lol..if your phones charging port's broken (I dunno how you managed to do that but oh well) its highly unlikely that you'll get it replaced under warranty. Warranty will replace things like faulty motherboards, manufacturing defects and the likes.....not physical damage. You can still try your luck at an explanation and hope it works. Try to leverage the Christmas spirit in on this one
The people at AT&T literally told me to call warranty, one told me to make-up something like it is dropping text messages /etc
Any idea if this works?

Sorry for the misunderstanding.
They said I should call the warranty people and lie to them, say that it was something else like a reception problem or something.
Does anyone have experience with this? Will it not work because when Is end in my phone it will be obvious the charging port broke? I am just looking for suggestions, thanks a lot guys

Sorry for this but yes I saw that thread. Many of them are talking about warranties and software problems. Generally if it is a hardware problem, warranty wouldn't fix it I thought. But the actual AT&T rep told me to lie and say it was dropping calls and they would send me a new one. So I was wondering a couple things after hearing this, as to what my best options are, should I use
1) Call and tell the truth
2) Call and make up something
--If I do and they take my word, what will happen when I send the phone in and the charger is broke? Could we say that possibly happened during shipping?
I'm just wondering if I have any choices other than buying a new $400 phone.
When you call, just say that the device is not synching or charging properly, and go from there.
If the USB port was not properly soldered to the motherboard in the first place, then it could break through no fault of your own. let HTC figure out.
Unless you did break it yourself by trting to jam the USB in upside down or something...

I really have no idea how it broke. It is just like one section of the thing you plug in. Like I didn't even notice it, because it still plugs in. It is just one of the prongs is deattached(but still right beside the others, thus it could still be plugged in) and the deattached one I can move around with my stylus.

Help.. Bricked G1 (HTC Dream)

ok, to make it easier to explain, I made a video. Sorry for talking so low.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypQBEARaw9E
I recorded that with my G1, the "broken" G1 is my brothers.
We have a serious problem, we cannot exchange it, we bought it last week and since we bought it has been having problems. We were going to take it to the store and then yesterday morning, it was like that, it was working "fine" at night. The problem is that we took it to the store, and the "dot" behind the battery is red, which "means" it got wet... but it didn't, I'm not going to lie, it didn't get wet my brother has taken care of that phone more than anything, it still has all the plastic protectors, even if the phone was acting really weird...
Ok ok, to the point. It doesn't do anything, as you saw in the video, when you press the power button the buttons flash until I depress it, and then they just stay on. The same happens when I try going into recovery, or bootloader modes, nothing... I decided to leave it like that for a few hours, nothing.
Either the device is bricked, the screen is damaged, or the whole device is screwed.... What do you guys think??
Thanks in advance.

It could very well be all 3. Did you guys get this from T-Mobile?
The dot in the battery compartment of my phone is red (well, orange I supposed) and my phone has never been wet and is working fine. I'd argue the case if I were you.

Yes we did get it directly from a (official) T-Mobile store (not a 3rd party retailer).. we went there and they complained about the phone "getting wet"... the phone looks perfect and never gotten wet.

I am going to argue, I already started arguing by calling tmobile directly but they *****ed about why didnt i take the phone within the 14-day warranty if it was giving me issues and waited for this to happen....... they couldn't do anything, whatever, I'm going to try to take this further because, just like you, I can assure you my phone hasn't gotten wet.
Can you help me an send me a picture of your phone? So I could have some proof, my own phone's dot is white, and some other phones from friends/family are also white...
Thanks!
I've heard stories of that indicator turning red/pink when people have left the phone in the bathroom while showering... supposedly a lot of steam can turn it red.

Yeah they told me about this, and I actually *****ed my brother about this but he doesn't do this, I do, and my phone is fine. Anyways, he told me he just leaves the phone charging in the room while he showers...
So I had to get a new one by claiming the insurance ($130 deductible.....) there was no win for me here...... the only thing was that I was able to keep the damaged phone.
I called HTC to try and figure out how much it would be to fix it. The lady that answered the phone said the symptoms were like those of a bad motherboard, and she said it'd cost me around $475 to fix it, wait, what??.....
So, know, idk what to do with this crap. I might try to repair it.
Thanks anyways guys!

Ah, right. Tell you what... since I'm volunteering my time to trace the circuit and my phone works perfectly, there is nothing for me to gain out of this, so I'm not the one to be asking for money.
If you can't afford it yourself, might be a community thing, but hold off for a while, there is someone else I've been communicating with privately who may be sending a bricked board, if it works out, then I won't need yours.
Ill volunteer a bricked board

Find a broken G1 on eBay or CG and try repairing it yourself. Might run you under $100 to do this and it's probably a great learning experience...not to mention you could end up with another working G1.

I think it is not covered by the warranty so there is 3 solution:
1- you have an insurance for your phone which can cover this damage
2- you pay to repair it
3- you buy a new phone
I feel you.. I dropped mine from the 3rd floor and it died :/
Luckily I managed to get a new one from my insurance.
If it's only a home insurance you've got, make up a story that you dropped it at home somewhere
u might say u dropped it from a 3m high table
anyway i hope u luck buddy i would feel bad if my xperia dropped from 2nd floor.

Ummm ...next time you crash your car (your fault) will you not claim on insurance?
AFAIK insurance covers faulty devices, or when they brake by themselves.
Just pay for it to be fixed.

You are right. My bad.
I remembered that the store guys offered me insurance, but I declined.
I can fix anything software related (xda ftw ) and if the hardware brakes, I'll just send it to a random phone repair shop. No need to pay huge cash for insurance.

We can rebuild him....
My Xperia fell off my motorcycle and got run over by a car coming behind. I got a new casing and display from one of the Hong Kong parts vendors and rebuilt it myself from a YouTube video on how to assemble/disassemble X1.
It's like BRAND NEW!
Give it a shot. Check out the YouTube video first to see if you think you can pull it off.
Good luck!
