Hi !
The front of my Blue Angel is damaged and I don't find any store for these parts.
The SD card adapter doesn't work anymore. (SD could be inserted but they are not blocked in the adapter) Do you think I can repair it ? (I am experienced in repairing electronic devices)
Best regards,

Hello to everyone!
I have problem about my Tytn (Hermes 200) that a connector (for a screen flex cable) on my motherboard is damaged. Is it possible to fix it -for example to change that connector with a new one (because I have another Tytn with usb port broken but that connector is ok)? Does anyone know how to do so? I really need help...
thanks in advance
or if someone know where I can find a new motherboard cheap?
While I'm waiting for my Transformer+dock to be delivered, I'm looking to see if someone has experience using a USB cardreader on it.
I want to use my transformer to view pictures from my Sony camera (so it uses MemoryStick). So either I use the (bulky) proprietary camera USB cable or I use an external cardreader to access the Memorystick...
I suppose the internal cardreader in the dock doesn't support MS, right?
Any suggestions?
The eeePads card reader is micro SD and the docks card reader is full sized SD.. BUT here's an elegant suggestion to solve your problem... :
..I bought a 16Gb Class6 microSD card on amazon uk that came with a full sized SD adaptor & Sony memory stick adaptor bunled in
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0032CJIUG/ref=oss_product
.. so you put that card & memory stick adaptor in your Sony camera to take pix.. then when you're ready to view on the tablet, simply take the card out of its adaptor from the camera and put directly into the tablet (micro SD) or swap it into the full sized SD adaptor and read via the dock..
Nice!
Thanx for the tip.
Hi
i just got my Pipo M8 from Spemall.com
it look very good but i have some minor issues , questions :
1. can i calibrate the touch screen ? when the tabket is placed on the table the touch isnt working well
also the rotation doesnt always work .
2.the Battery status allways shows charging 99% , all the time it shows 100% even when its not connected to the wall , i left the tablet in stby mode over night and in the morning is was dead .The games are runing well also the sound is good
what can i do ?
do i need to replace the firmware ?
thanks
TK
Hi,
1. it doesn't seem we can calibrate the screen. Once in my hands, the tablet is working well, but on a flat support the touch screen isn't so reactive
2. leave your M8 plugged to DC one night and you'll calibrate the battery. I've done this and now when the battery is fully charged, the white light shut down, and the tablet indicates "battery charged".
I've had problems with charger : when I was using my tablet while it was charging, the DC connector moves a little, and the tablet stops charging. In fact, I've noticed the little plug was not fully in the tablet, so I've cut less than 1 mm of black plastic and now it stays fully in the tablet, even if I move it while using it.
Another issue : I'm still unable to use TF cards on this tablet. I've tried 2GB and 8GB microSD cards, none are recognized. When I use them with USB adapter + USB cable on the host port, they are recognized... Have you successfully used TF cards in the TF card port with your M8 ?

This is because of very low quality charger supplied with PiPo. You should better throw it away and buy new, better one.
I've disassembled the tablet, and I've identified why the micro SD card does not work. Pins of the socket connector are to short to touch the Micro SD card, the connector is defective... I'm going to buy a new one and solder it instead of the old one.

It's not easy but it can be done without major difficulty.
Less than 5$ for this piece on eBay for instance : http://tinyurl.com/aee9y8j
Edit :
Finally that was a faulty little spring which was the cause of this problem. I've adjusted it and now the TF Card stay in front of the pins and Android is able to use the card ! great !!

- take your tablet from the rear side in one of the two round corners
- insert a nail in the round corner and pull off the corner
- then a thin plastic card, unlock each hook one by one along the edges
you'll find the mainboard, the batteries (that are approximately 2 or 3 mm thick), the connectors that are very roughly soldered, the logic board of the screen...
sorry for those poor pictures :
Brightness issue Pipo M8 3G
I've got Pipo M8 3G, and I have an issue with the screen brightness. When I dim the screen all the way down (minimum brightness) it starts to flicker (seems that lcd backlight flicker). It is very well visible on the white background (while browsing internet) and there is no problem if the brightness is set to more than 20%.
Has anyone got same problem, any solutions how to fix that

Yes, what charger did you try and does it solve the touch screen issue when charging.
HI!
I have a problem with a HTC One Max.
it can not read the Sim Card (GSM)
I opened the Sims Card Reader and it seems that there are some Pins Broken.
Did someone of you know how much Pins have to be connected to the Sim Card (O2 Germany)
and may be a Idea to easily repair it
Have a Look:
greetings
May it be possible with some Solder drops and than Tape the Sim on top of it?
Very easy but cheap method!?
Hello,
A few weeks ago, I replaced my screen because my smartphone had fallen. When disconnecting the antenna cable, the coax connection on the PCB was broken. So I ordered a new PCB. However, with the new PCB, I no longer have any coverage. Is it possible that the PCB is not suitable for the European / Belgian network (GSM/Edge/3g/lte). I also noticed that the PCB I received differs a lot from the design that was in my smartphone. The PCB under the smartphone is the defective PCB, the mounted PCB is the PCB is the new PCB. You can find a picture here: https://imgur.com/Wzmq0p0 When my broken screen was still on the smartphone, I had full range and there was nothing wrong with the network. The connections of the cable is also not damaged: https://imgur.com/H4WkFmA Screenshot of no coverage, but SIM card data that is read: https://imgur.com/tkOhXI9 I tested 2 sim cards that I in the Pocophone. Both are from another provider. Neither got a signal. In my other smartphone, both SIM cards were connected to the network and worked as expected. Does somebody know if I ordered the wrong PCB foe Belgium?
Are you certain that the antenna cable is good?
If it's damaged the sim should show up but with no network at all. (Exactly the behavior that you're having)

The chips' small differences are normal between an aftermarket and an original imo

some blue resistor is missing in new one, i think!
The antenna was damaged a bit, but i also ordereda new one with the damaged one worked.
Because the antenna cable of the pocophone was out of stock, i ordered another one from xiaomi. It was a little bit longer but, still the same issue

In the pic it seems like the antenna cable is a bit smashed by the bezel when it was screwed together. You could try with another cable and test for signal before reassembling the phone.
I made 2 movies to show that there should be a difference and that the issue is not the antenna cable.
In this movie, I installed the new PCB and there is no networkconnectivity:

In this movie, I installed the PCB without COAX-connection for the antenna, but just tape. I'm using is now with tape for about 5 days:

Does anyone have an idea, where to fine the correct PCB to use in Belgium (Europe)?
I contacted the company, but they only say they buy it from "Iparts Buy".
Any help would be appreciated.
Did you ever get this issue resolved. I'm having the same problem
Hey
Here is a link to a trusted shop in Germany (mobiltec24). I can't post a link. I'm a new member.
I have the same problem as you. I am also looking for a solution. I buy a pocophone without mobilenetwork. I can't unlock the bootloader without SIM Card.
Having the same issue, any update ?
