I killed my Kaiser by flashing a Touch Diamond ROM to it.
Sent it to repair service and they say the Mainboard needs to be replaced,but the price for repair is ultragious .
I realy need the device,it was a big help in my confused life style.
Can anyone tell me how can i fix it myself. Or where i can buy a mainboard. Or where can i send the device to repair for a cheaper service?
Sorry i have started a new thread,but i think this is a serious matter,cause HTC TyTN II is not a toy"I know i done to it the same as to a toy" and its expensive. Please help.
Thanks in advance for all your help guys.

Touch diamond isn't all that great. It's lyk a Nokia platform on a PDA, why'd u flash it to a kaiser anyway ?!
About the raw materials, you can easily get the main board (for cheep) through any cellphone spareparts shop online through google . As far as repair is concerned, its as easy as performing a hardware upgrade for your pc; un-plug--> plug. If you're still scared, you can google for a stp by stp instructions.

As for where to purchase parts, I'd normally tell you to go here: http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~unit~HTC_TyTN_II-972~area~home.htm but they don't have motherboards.
Your best bet might be to buy something from eBay with a cracked screen, because the motherboard, cpu & chipset is usually the most expensive part, and if you fry that it's usually easier to just buy new...
Hope this helps!

Thankx Alex.
I knew that wise words and advice would come out of the inner you.
I went to Mike Channon Home Page and left a message there,im still waiting for a reply.
I will go get the Device from the repair shop tomorrow. Ididnt accepted the price.
I will try and fix it myself,as i have the hability to fix Electronic things as PCs,Laptops,Mobiles etc,thank GOD.
Im low on economic status,but i will try Ebay my friend.
First Kitchen i used was the one with all your OEM Packages. So i love your work.
Hope you keep up in the good path of life .
For some of the others, should ignore any inconscient reply.
Of course i didn wanted to kill my Device. I just cooked HTC Touch Diamond ROM in a Kaiser Kitchen,added some Apps from the ROM i cooked based on C. Stu ROM to make it more colorfull,more alive to our eyes. But it went wrong,and if Man doesnt commited mistakes,so there wouldnt be positive results. Test we need. Mistakes have to occur in order to get better things.
People in Ethiopia have a more confused life than me. Im not an egocentric person, but cool .
I always learned things the hard way .
While I changed my screen I broke the keyboard connector on the mainboard. The brown plastic closing mechanism broke to parts. Any clue where I could buy a new one and if it is possible to change it (solder?)?

he cooked the rom first ... and i'm guessing something didn't go right. OFCOURSE he just didn't straight flash a diamond rom .. he's a cook so i think he knows better than that.

Im sorry for what append to you device. It doesnt make us feel good.
What did realy append ?
What part do you need ?
I have the solution for that. If you need a new Mainboard i can get it for you.
I dont make crazy prices. Probably a new device for the price of a Mainboard,thats what ive done,but im searching for a Mainboard supplier thought .
If you want to know more PM me.

Nope,i didnt straight flashed a Diamond Rom.
I knew i had to cook it. But forgot that i had to Port XIP and probably SYS from a Kaiser ROM to the Diamond one, or the reverse.
Im still on the learning process. But as you must know,Time is the Master.
And learning and take actions till they come correct its a bit time consuming. And i dont have much time these days.
I learned the hard way. I believe thats one thing that will never appen again .
Im waiting for my new Kaiser to arrive. Couldnt find a Mainboard supplier yet.
But i can get Kaisers for less then the price they asked me in the repair shop.
hi all , i bricked my w8 and i send it to service the other day ...my phone got hardbricked and i cant find a solution ..so i asked my dad to send to to a repairman, at 1st the man said its a simple problem and can be fix in a day or two , so 2 days has passed and i asked my dad is my w8 fixed? my dad said the foreman has overlook and the problem is more severe ...so i got a little scare and i heard of this method called JTAG ..and i am just wondering does all repairman knows JTAG? i saw a vid and it looks dam hard. ..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujH_IpsskLg
so heres the details
model:w8
reason for brick:unlocking bootloader
phone age : 3weeks
As you can see in the video you linked in your post, or in the link I posted in the "bootloader unlock warning" thread, it requires ...
a) ... specialized hardware (RIFF Box + JTAG Interface or Qualcomm Resurrection Cable)
b) ... a solid knowledge about getting the hardware and related software to good use
In theory any trained service monkey should be able to do the trick, given the repair shop has the hardware to accomplish the job. A authorized SE service center has the required hardware, and trained technicians, for sure.
Anyhow ... to point the finger at the "unlock warning" thread ... now, once you get your phone back READ THE MANUFACTURING CODE of your phone CLOSELY and do NOT attempt to unlock the bootloader again if the phone is within the critical range.
oh..so most repairman knows how to repair a bricked phone yes ? =) ..but still if i am right it will not be covered by my warranty? and how much will it cost?

warranty = no because the warranty sealed has been broken
cost? ask the repairman LOL
cause i'm curious too about se center cost and repair man cost..
i think i might be able to trick the repairman saying that i was trying to update my software then this happened =) hehe

is this a repairman or se center?
Why would you trick the repair man since it will not reduce the cost (i think)
erm..it's a retailer at a mall my dad bought the phone from...and if the retailer knows my phone is still under warranty wont the repair be free?

Thanks Pal. Yeah, 3K seems to be THE cheapest price i got after checking many Samsung Service centers at the moment but not sure how it can vary this drastically. Wondering if it would be original board. Anyway shall check again.
BTW, do we get these kinda motherboards in open market so we can fix it ourselves?
Thanks
Jei Kumar
Did you brick your device or something?
The samsung service center guys always say that you need to replace the motherboard to unbrick it. But actually, they just use jtag to fix your device! If you have warranty, you need not worry. But if you don't, then it is very difficult to get your phone fixed.
The last time I bricked my phone, they said the motherboard is 5000k.
Good luck!

Havent bricked yet but got water poured on it accidently. Its functioning all well but got problem with charging. The battery icon graphic shows the "charging" status even after unplugged. And much worse is the phone gets switched off in 15-20 mins though it was put on charge for hours together.
The warranty is over so had dis assembled every accessory from the motherboard and tried cleaning the board and power connector unit with spirit, axe/denim deodarant and what not.... no good so far...
Surpise is, the phone still works well while its on ... Love this phone

When checked the same service cemter today, they claim the price to be INR 4400
Had asked them if they can get me the board so i can fix it myself but it also seem to be not possible as they claim the board would be blank without any IMEI # and they had to update the board with my IMEI #
Seems like no other option now than to replace the board.
Thanks everyone.
Hi Guys
So I bought an HTC one, international version two months back from eBay India. (It has no warranty)
Recently, the charging port on the device has malfunctioned. HTC won't replace it for obvious reasons
and my seller has no hardware warranty. Is there a way in which I can get it repaired/replaced.
All suggestions are welcome (Even do-it-yourself ones).
Thanks

Im sure there are many hardware repair stores in India. Locate one nd give it fr repair. However, im sure that it will b quite expensive nd may require a motherboard replacement.
Which city do u live in ??

That actually depends on how bad the problem actually is. If the full motherboard needs to be replaced, then it will cost u much more than 5000 INR. So i wud suggest that u show it to a repair shop nd ask the quotation before actually asking them to do it.
However, im baffled as to why HTC wont do it themselves. If there's no warranty, it won't be done fr free. But i live in Dubai nd here HTC outsources their hardware services to another company, who does all kinds of repairs.
Keep this in mind, HTC has listed quite a few service centres in Delhi on their website
http://www.htc.com/in/support/service-center.html
Check wat they have to say. Ive got many devices repaired by these local hardware technicians in Mumbai. I dont think IT support is any worse in New Delhi

Actually, i did go the HTc center, they said there was a problem with the micro USB alone, but as this was an international version, they didnt have the parts for it.

Hello,
I live in India. I bought an HTC One from a seller on ebay, who has imported the phone from Hong Kong.
Few days ago, the phone's charging port stopped functioning properly. I took the phone to HTC Service Center to get the port repaired. But the repair person at the service center says that as the phone is from out of India, the charging port is not compatible with the one he has in stock.
He says he can put it in, but it may cause issues.
Can anyone please give me advice about this? What difference do connectors have and what issues can be caused due to this? The service centre guy says he cant say what issues may occur, anything may go wrong because of it...
Im sorry I know its a trivial question but I hoped that if anyone has any hardware knowledge about this, they could help me take a decision whether i should put in the "non-compatible" charging connector.
Thanks in advance

The charging connector is universal. Did you speak to the service rep or the technician?
Edit: are they doing it for free??

No, they are charging some amount, i guess some Rs. 500 or so
I spoke to the technician..
Try aftermarket repair there are also good technician can help you charging points are now same for all companies at least HTC won't use two different types

I'd say, don't go to an aftermarket technician. If HTC is taking only 500, get it done there. At least they'll disassemble and reassemble the phone the right way. Also, aftermarket parts aren't the same quality as the ones HTC will give you. I've bought an LCD assembly aftermarket, and there is a noticeable difference, between OEM and that (although it is 100% genuine, it just isn't as good)

I was considering taking it to an aftermarket repair centre but I had concerns about the way they handle the housing...unfortunately the HTC One is so difficult to open without damaging its outer body

if he do whatever you say then tell him just put new connector NO Problem !!
Update: For anyone who may have a similar problem, I got it replaced from HTC Service Center and it works fine! No issues.
