Hey guys, thanks for reading.
I've bought my Jade about 15 months ago, and been using it ever since. Most of the time it was on vibrate/silent, and when the ringer was on I put it on ring & vibrate.
However, it suddenly doesn't vibrate anymore, at all.
Is there any way I could fix this myself, without voiding warranty?
Thanks in advance!
Hey...
You can buy vibrator from ebay for 3.99$
It is very easy to replace it
It happened to my speaker and vibrator....
I bought two vibrator and two speaker... for further use...
I also suggest you buy speaker for your device...
About warranty..... Does it have void label on it's screws? If your answer is yes so you can not replace it....
Yea i have a sticker labeled 'VOID' on one of them.
So DYI is not an option.
Thanks for the reply.

The speaker on the back of my Tilt is pretty much dead, which means no speakerphone, no music and worst of all, it doesn't ring! Has anyone found a replacement one or a place that sells them? I've had no luck searching.

It does have a 1 year warranty from att, assuming its under a year and you are with att.
whats a warranty?
I thought I had bought it well over a year ago, but I just checked again and it turns out I bought it on Oct. 7th 2007, so I'm in luck! (hopefully) Guess I need to reflash and go find an att store.
But for the sake of others who might need a speaker and not have a warranty, or for future reference, does anyone know where to get one?
ebay or from someone that broke their phone.
Hi all
I am facing a problem for which I could not find sufficient material/ solution. My X1 was working fine and awesome. But one day I noticed that my touchscreen is not working in Landscape mode when I open QWERTY board. Once I close the QWERTY board, the screen will return to the portrait mode and starts responding to the touch. If I am browsing in portrait mode and then select the option for "Landscape" mode without opening QWERTY board, it is still working fine. It only does not work when I slide out the keypad.
One more thing, when I slide out the key pad and close again, my screen alignment also gets disturbed most of the times and I have to align screen. This all happened before upgrade, so we cannot blame upgrade also.
Please help me out as it really feels bad to not to use keypad and screen simultaneously.
Any help will be cordially appreciated.
Regards
Gajendra
HEY!!
I actually experienced the EXACT same problem half a year ago. Definitely it is a hardware problem!! Screen do not respond to the touchscreen only when keyboard is out and that screen alignment is always out afterwards. My alignment was out when that happened and I cannot even press on the start button as it does not respond to the wrong alignment. Because of the screen, my microphone was screwed up as well, people on the other side of the line sometimes will not be able to hear what I am saying during a phone call at all.
I send it in to SE Canada and they fixed 5 different items on my phone within 10 days!!
Items they fixed (for reference):
Conductive Fabric Display
EMI Gasket
Rigid Flex PCB Assy
Conductive Fabric Rigid Flex P
BtB Connector
Do not know what these things are but they fixed my phone and the screen is all good now.
Cheers,
@Eric
Hey Eric
Thanks for your reply. Would you mind telling me the cost that you incurred in the process?
If it is a hardware problem, then there is nothing that I can do. I will also have to go for it.
Please do revert.

Gajendra
Cost? I assume you got your warranty left, since it hasn't even been 2 years since the X1 launched?
Just restore Stock ROM and Stock SPL and send it in.

Hi Noon
Thanks for your response. I have purchased this handset from Singapore and currently I am in Miami. I am not sure if the warranty is international. That is the reason I was asking about the cost. I bought it in Feb'08.
I am not much of a geek and hence did not understand about the restore that you mentioned. Is it something like hard reset to get the factory settings??? I have recently upgraded my phone through SE website.
Thanks for your understanding.
Regards
Gajendra
I had exactly this problem!
The problem is the flex cable, which has worn out, and so short circuits itself when you slide open the phone!
u either, send it in for warranty repair, or repair it yourself, a bit fiddly but if you don't have warranty, your only option.
Its a COMPLETELY HARDWARE problem, no amount of software could fix this
and if you've only ever flashed with Sony Ericsson Update, then there is absolutely no need to restore anything! just send it in for repair
Should be ~$50 USD
@Jonny & Samurai
Thanks buddies!!
I really appreciate your responses.
Regards
Gajendra
when i sent mine in to get fixed it was free! under warrenty!
all i had to pay for was the postage to the nearest SE service centre!
As other have said, I fixed it under warranty so it was free beside the postage that I had to pay. I do believe warranty is international as my x1 is x1i and I get warranty coverage in Canada, which only sells x1a.
But I don't know if its 1 yr or 2 yr warranty?!?! I checked my repair receipt and it says 1 year, so I don't know!!
Anywayz, good luck on the repair!!!

1st of all, sorry, no need to restore anything, i just assumed you had a custom ROM.
2nd; feb'08? uhm, do you mean '09 or did you get your X1 ½ year ahead of us? ;P
You could send it in directly to Sony for only the postage cost.
If you meant feb'09 your 1year standard warranty has probably run out... but there's this rule/law about manufactauring errors ( at least in Sweden) if your ( electronical) device stop working due to production error (which this clearly is, among other usual X1 related problems) within 2 years time, the producer is still responsible to repair/replace your device!
I hope it works out for you, good luck =)
I bought a galaxy s on ebay, was like new a week old.
Found it to be very fast and amazing but the headphone port seems to be having problems. only one side of the headphones work for some reason and if i twist the headphone jack inside the port and hold it at a certain place occasionally both work.
Have tested in 4 different set of earphones which are fully working and I get the same problem. If I unroot my phone and ask the seller for the original reciept will I be able to get the phone repaired under warranty?
thanks
My usb port didnt work anymore after a week i got this phone. It was sent back rooted and had unofficial firmware. They replaced the port for free however. You need the receipt though..
The samsung employee told me they didn't care about unofficial software. The procedure to make everything default is a 10 sec job
You replacement will be under factory warranty, just like mine

I had same problem. Brought it to SC and they found out headset was faulty. Replaced headset. Headset/accessories only 6 months warranty. So go get it checked out. They didn't even check the phone. So I won't worry too much about custom roms unless you really have an issue with the phone itself.
God bless.
Thanks for the replies. Found out it was due to the fact that the gel case I have on my phone prevented the headphone Jack going all the way into the port. Stupid mistake I know but at least I know its now sorted.

Hi, someone's having this problem too?
I bought my RAZR from Telcel... the call volume was clear and loud the first two months, i could hear the calls in and outside of an assembly plant (it's very noisy in my work) but now I can't make calls without a pair of earphones because it's now sounds too low from the earpiece...
I'm thinking about bringing my phone to my Carrier Customer Support to see if they change my phone to another one, or change the earpiece or whatever... i'm still paying for it.
If they want to charge me for the reparation or service i'm going to change the piece myself, but in ebay there's not parts available or is there compatible earpieces around... suggestions?

You have Motorola's international warranty and therefore the repair should not be the problem. As you describe symptoms it looks like the earpiece is broken. It is one of the most common failures among cellulars. I doubt that you'll find spare earpiece on the market though. The phone is relatively new and it is hard to get any replacement part. And why bother with repairment yourself if you could get it for free? Not mentioned that RAZR I has compact design and no approach to the interior is provided. You'll more likely damage it than repair it if you are not a professional...
Well... technically, I don't have any warranty from Motorola because i've unlocked the bootloader... i want it to send to my carrier customer service, but i dont have phone for backup and neither for microsim cards... and JB is out... oh well
Hello
I'm really really frustrated.
I have an issue with my headphone jack. The sound from my headphone comes only from the left ear. I tried 4 different headphones and they all have the same problem.
I am on android marshmallow..
My phone still has warranty but I had a loooong story with the warranty company here in Canada.
The first issue with the phone's vibration.. The vibrating device was faulty and it made weird sounds.. So I sent the phone to be fixed because I'm covered by the warranty. After few weeks I received the phone with the same problem, so I talked to them and they told me to send it back to them.. After few weeks I receive a replacement but the replaced phone had the same problem and an additional problem.. The volume buttons were loose.. Very loose (apparently the phone that I have received is more faulty than the first phone).. I got really mad and I called them again and they told to send it back again.. (They are playing some kind of a sick game) so I've sent it back again. They called me and told me that the phone is water damaged and I'm no longer under warranty coverage... I did not believe what I heard.. I'm 100% sure that my phone did not go even near water.. Any way I got over it and received the phone today.. I upgraded the phone to marshmallow via adb and promised my self that I will never deal with this company again ... Tonight I wanted to listen to some music through my headphones but the sound is coming only through the left side... Apparently they managed to ruin my phone even more!
I'm really really really mad and frustrated..
