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

I cracked the screen on my HTC 8925. Does anyone know if I can replace it with a screen from the 8525? Is it compatible?
i know this isn't really a constructive post, but DAMN that was fast...

Hello,
I cracked mine too.
Look at this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336410
The only thing I'm not being able to do is open my device, it's kind of glued.
You can also call HTC, they said replacement is about $170 to $370 depending on the damage. You have to request an RMA # and send in your device.
Good luck!
Mario.

I'll answer my own question: No, an 8925 screen can't be easily replaced with a 8525 one.

More detail would be useful. Is it a different part number? Make? etc
Or do you just mean it's possible but not easy or difficult to dismantle the Kaiser??

I don't have many more details. I took it into a cell phone repair shop. The guy had a spare 8525 screen, but when he dismantled the Kaiser he found that the 8525 screen couldn't plug into the 8925. He didn't really describe it further. I've since talked directly to HTC, and they'll replace it for $172. Said it would take about 10 days.

did u talk to HTC in the US or Europe?
Inexpensive HTC 8925 Repairs
I've seen a lot of people posting asking where they can get their AT&T Tilt (HTC 8925) fixed and usually see prices in the $150+ range. I actually own a small company that does AT&T Tilt screen repairs for just $79 plus shipping (usually $6.95). That price includes parts and labor.
We've repaired a lot of these phones and can do the repair in under 24 hours in almost all cases.
so i bought my tilt like 2 months ago..today at the gym..i dropped it..and cracked the screen..now the screen is completly white with a big ol' crack going through it...
my first question is..what kinda warrenty does att have/ what can i do to get this replaced?
number 2...i have a custom rom....but since i cant actually see anything on the screen..how do i go about flashing the original back so my warrenty isnt void? if i just flash it regularly would that work..and leave it on the phone without setting it up or anything??
thanks in advance
Broken Screen is "Physical Damage" & as such not covered by the Mfg's warranty.
Your choices are send it to a center for repair, buy a new device, or buy the LCD & digitizer & install it yourself.
If HTC repair finds the damage is your fault they charge $28 to fix anything not there fault. When you send it to them they ask for credit card number for this . I just had to send my phone back and this is what happened
Actually HTC will charge way more than $28 for things not covered by warranty (like "physical damage"). I spoke with a HTC repair person on the phone the other day and she told me that the average bill for repairs on the kaiser was $140 or so.
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
The mini usb has failed on my Trinity. Do I need a new main board? If so do you have one?

HTC P3600 mainboard
Hi!
have you maybe got a mainboard for HTC P3600? i have ruined mine accidentally.
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 ?
.. to remove personal data and sell it for spares ?
As I understand there is nothing like an SD card inside, is it embedded to the motherboard somewhere ?

There is no way to access Internal Storage.
Hi Hertc,
I had the same problem and i had to return it back to Bestbuy guys and atleast i had insurance on the phone by bestbuy so i got the new HtC touch Diamond phone by Best buy. HTC people said its a bug in the motherboard and that is not repairable.

Mine is not covered by the warranty (hard floor impact ) and the price quoted for the MB replacement is more than they ask for a used Diamond-2 in excellent condition on eBay.
I will probably have to break it apart and sell screen, battery etc. separately destroying the motherboard .. do not want anyone accessing my personal details, could cost more than what I can get for the whole broken phone ...
Anyone needs a replacement screen ?
Need the screen
Hi. I actually do need the screen, got HTC Diamond as a gift, does turn on, I can hear the sounds but no picture. I am guessing I need the new screen. I would need that screen.
