Please don't even attempt to change the screen yourself. Give the phone to HTC, they'll repair it. They'll charge, but its much better than trying to do it yourself

I can't send it back as it as no screen on it at all the person I bought it off as all ready attempted to open it and when I had a look the cables were broke. I only got it cheap so I thought I would have a try at fixing it my self. You can see where they have tried to force it open and when i got the screen off one of the cables was snapped

Hmmm, I think HTC will just charge extra because the phone has been opened. But I don't think they will deny repairing it. See if they are willing to do it

I have just done that but the best they could tell me was send it in and wait for a quote and either send it back unrepaired for £27 or to dispose the device free of charge. Just dont know if its worth it though as i remember a few years ago sending my sensation in and because the screen had a little crack in it they wanted £200 just to fix the screen
Thanks replaced the screen and working great so far

What the **** just happened to my phone ???? NEED HELP !!!

I just bought an 8925 a couple of weeks ago (about a year used) and it was working fine...Best phone I've had so far...Yesterday I'm sitting in my car, I start the TT software and drive off. As I'm driving off I plug the phone into the car charger and pouf! Phone just blacks out. No lights no nothing. I tried to plug the phone into a wall charger, data cable, car charger, nothing. No light, no sign of life at all...
I also had just purchased a new battery for it, tried it and still the same, nothing at all....Suggestions ???????? PLEASE !!!!!!
What kind of car charger do you have? There are reports that if you use a cheap, generic charger it may fry your phone.

THIS ONE. If it is fried, what can I do ? I mean, I'm sure I can't do much about the phone itself but can I maybe go after CellularAccessory.com ???
Good luck...
It's indeed highly recommended to only use HTC car chargers, there have been many reports of similar cases.
I dont think you are gona have much luck trying to go after the place you bought the charger from they usually have disclaimers about damage caused by anything they sell. If the phone truely is dead and going on your description you have probably fried components on the board, is to try claming on your household contents insurance just say it went pop when you plugged it in at home using your htc charger. Failing that if your phone is still under waranty then try the place you bought it from. DONT say you used a non branded charger though or you are screwed lol. Good Luck.
Charger
Damn, paid $3.95 for a multipurpose car charger and it fried your Tilt. I can't imagine that. I'd be p*ssed.
take it to att and see if its still in warranty and get a new one..if its out of waranty then call htc in usa and it should still be covered (manufactures warranty is 15 months). Htc devices are the most knoqwn swapped out phones with warranty exchanges..its very simple..ive exchanged my tilt 4 times now. I dont even break a sweat if something even SEEMS wrong..i used to freak out and try to fix things myself but i eneded up doing more damage than needed and luckily att is so nice and understanding..i just emediately take it in and get a new one now..even if something doesnt feel right..if need be i throw it in boot loader mode and say it wont boot.
It probably should be noted that nobody is suggesting you defraud HTC or AT&T on an open forum, especially senior members. Since your device is regulated by the FCC and it would probably make it a Federal offense, I think I would stick to the basics in any discussions with everyone. If they don't ask, fine, If they do ask then use your own judgment.

I will definately try that, but my only concern is that it's an unlocked att phone that I'm using in Montreal, Canada...Should I go to HTC Canada or USA???
Just tried calling HTC North America (the # that's on their website (425) 679-5318) and it just answers but with no sound at all..It's like if someone picks up the phone but it's just muted....I waited around 3 minutes thinking someone would probably end up answering, but no...
just take it into an att device support center (look on there site or call them) and just tell them it wont turn on..its not defrauding them its honest..as ling as its not PHYSICALLY DAMAGED (as in mving parts were damaged by dropping or mishandling) or WATER DAMAGED (as in the white square on the back is pink) then your good..This happened to me the frst time..i left it on a charge all night and next morning it wouldnt charge nor turn on and att took it with ease.
Wow, a three dollar car charger that is multipurpose for a several hundred dollar device.....the real question is...why? Before you ever plug anything into an electronic device please, please check the output voltage and amperage, a lesson to all.
Ok I was finally able to reach the repair dept. at HTC. They told me the phone is still under warranty so I sent it to their repair center in Indianapolis in the hopes they will be able to exchange it...
I do believe the phone is completely fried, but is there a way for them to still detect what caused it to fry ? Also, they told me that any third-party application they find on the phone voids the warranty, will they be able to see what was installed on the phone ??

If the phone is fryed I doubt they will be able to get it working thus they wont be able to see whats been installed on it and anything could have fryed it such as a power surge while it was plugged in at home. Just wait and see i guess.
once they take it apart they will be able to figure out the problem. sometimes not easy .

LOL at your post..
"Htc devices are the most knoqwn swapped out phones with warranty exchanges"
Where do you get facts like that, I though nokias were the most swapped.. Is there a website that has these stats?
Either way, good luck on that exchange.

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.

Thanks, and yeah I was already looking into one, found one locally with a broken screen this guy might be giving it to me for like 30 bucks so that'd be great. I have the tools and everything, Ive fixed phones, including iPhones, and also HW unlock on iPhones when there was that moment were SW unlock was not possible and I did like 2 HW unlocks... ok too much talk
Thanks anyways to every one, If I can't fix this I'd definately consider sending the MB to lbcoder
My ebay board just arrive! i hope to fix my phone tomorrow.
Shoulda just swap the stickers and got the warranty replacement.

[Q] A repair shop replaced my digitizer with a non-working, how to prove it?

Hello, recently, my phone fell in the water.
I gave it to an repair shop named "My Mobiles".
The place looked like they "couldn't" scam people.
After two days of "servicing", they showed me the mobile.
They said that sometimes the phone wouldn't on.
The touch screen was working perfectly, someone showed me the working of the mobile, unlocked the lockscreen, scrolled through the different home screens.
They would service for another day, flash, and return it back to me.
The next day, they gave it to me.
They said that the touchscreen wasn't working perfectly in some places.
I wanted to test it, they said that the electricity wasn't there and they couldn't charge right now.
I went home with my mobile.
I charged it for a long time.
Then, when I turned it one, I couldn't access the touchscreen whatsoever.
I'm pretty sure that they replaced the digitizer with an non-working one.
But, I'm not sure how to prove it. So, is there any documentation provided that says that can identify the id of my digitizer?
I live in India, and good people here are a million-to-one.
What can I do?
Thank you.

Hah, yeah.
But how do I confirm about the digitizer?
I have to confirm that I'm right.
So, how do I do that?
Or is it just better to buy a digitizer?
(I sincerely don't see any point arguing with a bunch of dumbasses in a room full of "judges")
How much would the digitizer cost and which trusted place do I get it from?
I would recommend you to take your phone to that shop once more..
They must fix any error they made..
Or it would be better to take your parents along with you..(if you are a kid..)

Yeah, I did think of that, but the previous day, the digitizer was working, atleast accessible.
But, the next day, it didn't even respond.. I don't understand how that could that happen !
They did say that "it's an motherboard problem", but the mobile is working perfectly other than the battery and the touchscreen..
And, has someone used a new digitizer, successfully?
Is there any tutorial to replace the digitizer? I did find this : http://erkinson.altervista.org/en/sony-ericsson-xperia-x8-smontaggio-e-sostituzione-display-touch/

Why not? It shows you what you have to remove(1 and 2) to replace digitizer. Then whatever you remove you place it back, while you are replacing the digitizer.
If you are not familiar with this stuff i advise you to leave it to someone who know how to do it.

Broke my Xperia 1 ii Screen and Suggestions for Repair?

So I dropped my Xperia 1 ii yesterday at work and the screen cracked. Ironically my tempered glass I ordered came in today from Amazon. Is there anywhere I can go to repair my screen or buy a screen replacement?
Also has anyone else new their screen on their Xperia 1 ii? If so, where and how did you replace it? Does Sony repair these phones if I send it to them? Any idea on pricing etc? I really don't wanna have wasted $1,200. Someone please help me!
Hi there, I dropped mine too few days ago. Did you have yours fix? If so, can you point me the way? I'm in US, btw. thanks

did you guys get yours fixed? if yes can you help me get mine fixed too.
I bought it from amazon and used it for a week and then I used another brand charger I had to charge it and it was fine until it ran out of charge and turned off now it's stuck on the sony logo screen when I try to turn it on. I tried the 812-920-4185 and it keeps going to voice mail so left a voice mail and emailed them too but I still haven't gotten a reply. the phone was used for only a week or two.

do you still have original charger ?
what happens when charge it while off
fully charge it and hold the power button and volume up (or down) same time then release when logo appears, it should open the recovery menu, clear cache x2 and reboot
if still not booting then connect to PC and do a reset repair using companion
using a 3rd party charger should make no difference unless it is faulty
if all else fails return it under warranty
there are plenty of forums that will help you resolve this problem including Sony support forum
Whether your Xperia screen is cracked or your phone won't turn on, iFixScreens store has skilled and certified technicians ready to fix your phone. Our smartphone repair is always quick and affordable, with high-quality parts. All the repairs we perform are backed by a 180 Days hassle-free warranty.

Question Device dead?

Hi,
my device does not power on neither is detect when plugged via USB or when plugged to charger.
I've already tried holding power button, power button + vol UP/down and nothing happens.
It had 60% of charge when it happened.
Now I'm just waiting to the battery completely dies to try to charge it again.
Or is there another command to reset it ?
Thanks
Try a hard reboot, hold power button for 10-15 seconds or disconnect the battery.

Hardware failure. Maybe the battery, the C port pcb, a loose connector or the mobo, in roughly that order.
Yeah, I'm started to think about hardware failure.
I disassembled it, everthing seems fine though. But the main board, memory and so I have no way to check it.
Thanks
So I'm giving up.... Leave it to spare parts, try to sell it as that....

May just be the battery. Any swelling is a failure but may fail without swelling. Older, degraded batteries are more likely to fail.
Try inspecting the ribbon cable jack pins. Simply detaching them then reattaching them is all it takes.

There is no RMA for me as I live in Brazil. With the cost to send it back it`s cheaper and faster to get a new one.

I thought that was the case, but I should have asked you that first. If you can't find the problem try taking it to a local repair shop. It may not be as bad as it seems. Could be a bad C port pcb which are cheap.

It will be close. Here in Brazil we have to pay taxes and import fees. So if I sent it it will cost (doing conversion) around 45usd shipping,+ 10 for insurance.
Then to get it back is about 60% of the product price to import it back + the service to get it fix.
So buying a new one it better, but I've already decided not buying OnePlus again the lack of tools to let us manage the phone was the real issue here... And also all the posts that users getting their phones bricked, even with beta android 13, how a company release something that a user can't go back in an easy way?
Sorry but OnePlus was nice, now it's just company and less users..

And I agree. This will be my last OnePlus device for sure. I was toying with the idea of getting the nothing phone. Slower SOC but it looks amazing all the same
Just got the device in EDL mode. Now just need to find the full image for NE2213 in OPS format that is the one that MSM Tool needs. Anyone has any ideia ?
PS: Already tried to use the decrypt and encrypt tool to generate but I don't have the correct settings.xml file for this device.
And now I found out that V2.0.67 or V3 can read .ofp file...but those version require username/password.

Msm tool is locked down. It requires a technicians username and password. It also requires a phone home.
There's one loser whos going around selling stolen credentials for Msm. Hate to say it, but that might be your best bet?
Thanks, but not gonna pay a cent... If people starts to pay then we'll never get the tool for free.
So I prefer to lose the device or just keep it stored until the tool is available.
For the time being I'm back to my mi 10t.
And if the time for the phone support ends, just going to buy Samsung or htc if they get back on business

Admirable. Good luck with Samsung. Wish their bootloader's we're unlockable in the states. Otherwise I'd ditch oneplus too

Now this... This is news to me. Able to elaborate on this a bit more? Every Samsung I've had the bootloader couldn't be unlocked. Even the U variants.
What magic tricks do you have?
