doesnt help!
hey buddy thanks for yr help but its an american website..can u suggest me a one in uk/thanks..
I've bought a screen from them. They sent it pretty quickly (complete with instructions -with pics- on how to change it) Though like they say you shouldn't do it if you're faint-hearted.
I couldn't find anyone doing the same in the UK and I searched a looong time.
Good luck

hey guys,
here's the thing
A friend of mine has a broken screem on his XDA II(Qtek 2020), I have a XDA I but my sound isn't working so good, I can get his broken XDA II for free, but is it possible to put my XDA I screen into the XDA II??
if so, what is the safest way to do this?
if not, where can I buy a cheap, broken XDA II for the screen or where can I buy a new XDA II screen...
or
where can I get my XDA I to whit my sound problem (I live in the Netherlands-->limburg)
plz help...

The screen will not fit, what is the nature of your sound problem on xda 1?
i really don't know
sometimes the sound is perfect, but when i make a call, it's not that good at all, and sometimes when I put my headphones in, i can't talk, just listen, and when this happens, the sound's death...
but is it possible to get some of the XDA II parts into the XDA I such as the processor or the memory'??
I dont think it is viable to transplant any of the innards of the xda2 to the xda1, sorry.
So a few days back, my mini pro started to act weird; when the keyboard was out the touchscreen wouldn't work. By the evening the whole screen stopped working. Warranty is out, so I tore down the whole phone, checked all the connections but in vain. I flashed the phone back to stock firmware, but still stuck with no touchscreen. I think this is a pure hardware problem. And I'm kinda scared to give my phone to these private dealers, they might swap out the original parts for fake ones, learned the hard way when I gave in my old Nokia for repair.
So I thought I'd share my problem with you guys, any help would be appreciated.

Bro, its an hardware issue.. The flex that connects from motherboard to the display is damanged.. Give it to the nearest Sony ericsson service center n get it replaced.. Do not give it to private vendors.they tend to spoil your phone.. Dont worry even if ur not on stock ROM or kernel.. Just tel them not to upgrade your software during the process..else it'l be fixed. Cheers..

Thanks for the real quick reply man, I thought so. With that in mind I took the phone apart and check the connections. Finding them intact I came to quite the same conclusion.
Any idea how much this would cost?

Here it cost me about 1.5k.. Not much tho. ;-)

I love my xperia but could not face another month of it been gone for repair and it only been not even 5 months old.
Did not want to leave but too many issues for a flag ship device. Still sending it off for repair but atleast have a phone that works hehehe well for the moment.

Id bet money that you will have problems with your samsung at some point. No flagship is free of issues.

C`mon man...we`re not interested in selling or throwing your phone to garbage!
we all know about the xperia s problems.we do not need you to remind us of them.
unless u have to say something usefull( e.g how to get rid of those annoyng bugs from ics or how to repair the yellow tint...or how to improve the battery life) please leave us and buy a ugly Samsung...or HTC or whatever you like! you will find that all the phones have their problems
at least....xperia s with all his problems is a f#^#n` sexy phone...the rest are just...phones
fake HD Pentile display vs Sony's bravia engine HD display.
No thanks.
If not because of the yellow tint issue that was killing me, i would keep it until the 2013 line realeased.
Xperia S is hell a of a sexy phone.
100% agree but cause I need a phone that works and could not face another 5weeks with out it been repaired had no choice. Now I am no fan of Sammy far from it but when I will have an average of 40 calls a day on my mobile (busy upto 65) needed something that would work.
I still much prefer the xperia S but how it looks is not that important or how it feels if that was the case might have chosen the lumia.
Now I have no preconceptions that Sammy make a better phone this actually feels so plasticly you would not believe but when it comes to making and receiving a call its working. I do not have to worry now (at the moment) about people complaining they can't here me with all the beeps cause proximity is bust, and nore do I have to strain cause yellow tint was getting worse and worse, or the endless FC just using the contacts looking up a number (after re flashing bringing back to stock etc.)
Yes my robot who built my xperia was on the oil too much but when they could not issue a replacement why should I stay.

I never had any problems on the S with force closes and such (system apps anyways). I would much rather have a yellow screen (that can be repaired) than a blue screened plastic fantastic device to be honest. You can't fix the cheap body and a blue screen.
Everyone has their opinions and such so it doesn't matter. I find this thread in general a bit unnecessary but whatev

Well it was more to say good bye more than anything else.

Hi there Folks....
My SGS3 Pebble Blue suddenly went dead. I leave my phone overnight with 17% battery charge, I dont remember well if the wifi was on, but in the morning it was completely dead, no button respond at all. Thinking that the battery has been emptied, i plug in the charger, but the phone doesnt respond, not even the LED nor the battery display that is charging. So, I leave it on the charger for a couple of hours, like 3 or 4 hours but still its dead.
My SGS3 is running at Omega ROM v34, everything is working fine before the incident, no lags, no system crashes. It is made in vietnam and I got it from a local network provider in Phillippines.
What can i possibly do to revive my SGS3? I could not send it to Samsung for warranty because, first it is running in custom firmware, next is warranty is completely void because i have already replaced my LCD Screen last month. I dropped my phone and the Screen was damaged so I ordered a screen replacement and I myself replaced the damaged screen.
Please help, I have no idea what happened....
Sounds like the S3 "Sudden Death" issue that was in the media some days ago (so the chance is high that it is a physical defect and you can't do much against it...).
Try a google "Galaxy S3 Sudden Death" search and you should get tons of informations about the issue. As far as i know Samsung Support repairs/replaces damaged devices without trouble.
Looks like they replace the mainboard on those damaged devices. Some people are saying that it might be some sort of planned obsolescence that kicks in to early.
That would also explain why Samsung is not talking about those issues at all and repairing/replacing damaged devices without further asking.

Unfortunately my S3 died on me as well on the eve of new year!
I'm waiting for the holidays to be over so I can send it to the Samsung service center.
Hopefully, they will cover the repairs with the warranty and they will not notice that my phone is rooted and running on custom software..

Does it mean that my mobo died even if I can still boot in download mode?
Thank you!
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk HD
Yes... To double check... Go to download mode and see whether brand name ''i9300''is there... If no, pit partition messed up... Confirm motherboard dead..

Have sent in the unit yesterday to the service center. They have checked the download mode and asked me if I did some rooting and I said no.
From the download mode they cannot see the product name but there is no custom binary download numbers too so they said it is covered by warranty and just this morning, I called them up to follow up and they said they already ordered a new motherboard. I asked again if there are no problems with regards to the warranty and they have confirmed that it is indeed covered. Hopefully, in a week I'll get the repaired unit

So have you gotten your phone back yet? Which service center did you bring your unit to?
