I've recently gotten into the hobby of buying broken phones and reselling them for just enough more to cover my costs. (that's why i'm calling it a hobby).
However, I recently purchased a pretty smashed up Tilt - it needed a new LCD and an entirely new housing.
After investing that $140, I've come to find that the mainboard is probably bad, as it wont power on.
Rather than toss my money in the crapper, I want to see about replacing the mainboard, but cant find ANYONE who sells them online...perhaps I'm searching by the wrong terms, but I'm no web n00b...and I'm coming up blank.
Does anyone know of a reputable website whereby I can purchase items like the mainboard for the Tilt? Does anyone who reads these forums WORK for HTC, and like to strike a deal?
Please, PM me if you know anyone that sells these hard-to-find HTC parts...
Thanks!!

I have thousands of HTC Parts, unfortunately I dont have any of the Tilt Boards, but let me know if you need anything else and I will have a look.
Do you have a website thru which you sell them? I am actually in need of either an LCD for an 8525 with the gold ribbon cable, or the flex cable for an 8525 for use with an LCD with the black ribbon cable (stupid of HTC to make 2 different configurations for the same model, dont you think?)
LMK!

HTC Himalaya mainboard, GSM version?
I have one with water damage to the mainboard and a problematic dock port, would be a shame to scrap it, the LCD and digitizer both work, and when the battery is charged it works perfectly, apart from when it comes to syncing (problematic port) (and if you don't just have HTC parts, I am also looking for a mainboard for a nokia 6300 and an LCD / Digitizer for an HP Ipaq 2210 / 2215 lol)
pm me if you have any of this stuff please

HTC P3600 mainboard
Hi!

do anyone have a mainboard of HTC p3400 or p3400i?
HTC Diamond mainboard
Anyone having HTC Diamond mainboard? I was offered to repair mine for $400, looking for cheaper options..
Yup, just like the title says.
And before anyone yells at me, YES i did the search button but nothing...
I checked ebay, and for some reason no one has a motherboard... and I don't want to risk it with buying one with a cracked screen that might have a messed motherboard.
HTC wants to charge me $352.26 for a new motherboard AND lcd... when only the motherboard wasn't working (last i checked, the lcd was working... unless THEY did something at the repair)
I've seen this before in another thread. I believe the consensus was that there was no place to buy them except risking eBay.
Damn...
So how much do you think HTC would charge to repair the motherboard separately from the LCD ?
So I recently broke my mini usb port when trying to fix the pins so it would work with my car charger. The first time I did this it worked flawlessly, but when I did it again the 5th pin broke. I know you can buy a replacement piece for like $5, but how hard is it to fix yourself? I talked to my dad who used to be an electrical engineer and he said you need a special soldering gun to install it. Is this true? If so, would it be like around $100 to have someone do? Also, does anyone know if a computer repair store could fix it? I have had my phone for about a year so I believe the warranty is gone since I didn't get an extended one. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Problem fixed
I had this same problem with my at&t tilt, broken usb port. I search the web and found a company called pocketpctechs.com. Order the sync connector repair service which is around $80. i sent them my phone and they fixed my problem hopefully this is helpful.
80 bucks? ow ._.
this happened to me a while back. Found ppctech and place my order as well. just went down there and dropped my phone off since it was close by. Picked it up the same day. Price is kind of steep, but couldnt find anything else. Tech who fixed it asked me if I like the modded rom I had on it and he was thinking of puting it on there too. lol
Thanks. I would prefer to take it to a shop because I can't be without a phone for a couple days. Could a computer repair shop do this kind of work if I bring in the part? I got one of those local.
why dont you ask that shop if they will be able to do it?
i need a htc at&t tilt mainboard. please help...
Moved as not ROM Development.
Check out ebay may be cheaper just to buy a new Kaiser\Tilt
The only place to get a reliable one is through HTC, and that is the same cost as a new phone. Get one with a broken screen off ebay; that is what I did when I bricked my phone. Just transfered my working LCD screen and I was back up for about $100
Hi, does anyone know where I can get this part: htc-hd7-motherboard-flex-cable
Or is anyone selling a broken HD7 for real cheap?
You can try Alibaba.com. I'm not promoting but that's the place to get parts.
Thanks, I'm trying one of the suppliers now.
