Does anyone have a Siemens SX56 wit AT&T that they want to trade for a T-Mobile ???
I am about to try to switch the T-Mobile over to AT&T but I thought I would check first to see if anyone would like to trade?
Thanks
Rick :?:
Trade what though? They are the exact same phone, cept for the case has a slightly different color.
You would go through the trouble just to get a different color case?
maybe he have not unlocked the phone
not that thats as much trouble as sending 2 phones back and forth
All ya need to do it like spend 10 minutes of your life and you can unlock the phone very easily.
OK
You talked me into it.
Thanks
Rick :wink:
RICK! simply go to Jeff's Kitchen (in this website somewhere)
select the windows you want (2003/2002)
and just download and install!!

Sounds like a blown fuse on the motherboard, do a search on this forum for details of repair procedure.
How long you had the unit?
If you, like myself, are not as technically advanced as some others, and you haven't had the phone long, send it back to whomever the manufacturer was and they will likely fix it. I bought an Siemens SX56 from ebay a couple of months ago and had the exact same problem, told me to do a hard reset first, that did nothing, then I sent it in to get fixed, apparently it was easier and cheaper for them to just send me a new unit because in about a week and half, I had one at my door. Of course, the unit I sent in was unlocked, as I use cingular and the Siemens is an ATT phone, but the new unit was locked to ATT, that's how I found this site, I had it unlocked in 5 minutes. Anyway, if you have had the phone less than 60 days, I would send it in and get it fixed.
that's one problem,
I live in the netherlands, and i bought it from my uncle who lives in Singapore....and he bought it there....
But I'll check the forum to see what I can do about it....
thnx anyway

Dear h0t_Sh0t, I have few advices that might help..
1- Check if your device has International warrenty.
2- Check is the connector socket is loose from inside or not well connected, this is where the little thing goes inside the imate to connect. Mine got loose one month ago, and then was almost broke, then did not charge or make Sunc, I got it to be repaired at almost US $ 65.
Hope this helps.

I've dropped my Qtek 2020 / XDA II several times, and last time some of the plastic on the back broke.
So........ where can I get a new housing / case for my XDA?
I'd like to know too. As well as a couple of cracks in the housing, I've also gradually lost the chrome on the edges of the direction pad. As I originally bought my XDA2 second hand, I can't take it to O2 for repairs.
I've kept an eye open on eBay, but apart from one auction a long time ago I've never seen any replacement housings up for sale.
I think O2 service centre will carry out repairs if you pay.
yep - but that will cost me around 150 euro
Anyone :shock:
have you try http://www.siansmobiles.co.uk/
Thanks!!!!!

Evening,
I purchased a dummy Xda 2 from eBay for 20 euros inc p&p from Germany. Simply needed a torx 6 and a very small phillips and it took about 5-10mins to change housing, now mine looks like new even included a new stylus, the only problem is the barcode sticker containing IMEI found behind the battery cannot be swapped over.
If you want to try this mail me if you need help
Regards

Not sure about i-mate, I would just keep checking eBay for i-mate dummy, there is an Xda II dummy
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=80478&item=6411671474&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW
XDA casing cost a lot becouse it has a 4 layer.. one at the front one at the center and one is the cover for battery and the last one is the black on the upper back of the xda..
Hello to all.
I'm looking for housing for my xdaII. I search on the net for housing for qtek 2020,spv M1000,o2 xdaII but I can't find anyone,not even on www.siansmobiles.co.uk. anybody know where I can find what I'm looking for?
many thanks.
Hello, you can make a question at www.buy-online.ro or www.q-tek.ro , if you find one let me know.
from q-tek.ro I receive answer but no hope for me.they say that never happened,and this product is not for sell,maybe if I send xda they can try to send to producer for repair,but this will cost to much I think.
still looking for housing or dummy,maybe I'll find somewhere.
gabiz_ro i advice you to try again because one of my friends had a broken display and they were able to provide a new one for him, and i know that this was't possible about 2 moths ago. Maybe now they can help you.
thanks for info
Hi all, Im new to this Forum, I have a real problem I bought an HTC HD2 phone from the local free ads paper the man who I bought it off delivered it to my house face to face I give him £200 cash its brand new. It was working perfect for 5days now I think its been Blacklisted, I live in the UK and its illegal to change IMEI numbers here I dont want to do it as I do not want to be in trouble the number that was advertised in the free ads is no longer vaild, it dont ring so I cant get hold of this man. I just want to get my £200 back
Any advice will be great I dont want to contact the police becuase I dont know where this person live and they will surly take the phone off me and I will defo be down £200.
Ive listed it on ebay anyone who wants the link can contact me on msn. My question is that it if I sell it to someone who lives in the USA will the phone work for them as a friend told me it will becuase this phone is only blocked in the UK.
I really like this phone to and im real gutted whats happend to me any help or advice would be great . Thank you all for viewing my post and I hope to here some solutions to this problem
I found the real problem with signal issues of the HTC Titan.
I have 2 HTC Titan
I bought a second HTC Titan from AT&T for a penny & I thought of trying the back cover on my first Titan.
The results are astonishing. The back cover was all that was wrong on my device. With the second Titan I purchased from AT&T on the Web, there is no problem with the sigral.
I have now ordered a new cover from Ebay & will try to get a replacement from HTC for my original cover that was defective.
I really think there was a bad batch of those back covers for this Titan & we where the unlucky ones to get them.
If you know someone that has no issues with his Titan, try his back cover on your phone.
Hope this help someone.
Good luck.
Hi, could this solve the WiFi issues?

How can you tell the difference between covers?
Photo please..
There is no difference at all between the covers that I have. The only thing I can figure out is that the contacts tabs on the inside of the covers that does not work, do not make a contact with the antenna that is embedded in the bothom plastic of the cover.
I do not know if the WiFi problem is related to this, (as I think the WiFi antenna is located in an other place on the cover) but for me the slow download speed I was getting before I change the cover, & the low signal or no signal was directly ralated to the lack of good antenna.
In order to come up with this solution, I went great lengths in order to find the right tab that was the antenna. I even install a temporary antenna (See immage) on the outside of the thone & I was getting better signal.
But after receiving my second Titan from AT&T online order I tried the cover from that secont Titan & Voila !! Very good service & signal.
Hope this help.

If someone want to buy a replacement on eBay, I think he should be carefull on choosing the right cover, because on eBay, they sell a BLACK cover & a SILVER like on AT&T, & I think it is because in the USA, AT&T has a different frequency than in Europe.
I was hoping to get HTC to provide me with a new cover, but having install an exterior antenna on it, kind of ruined the warranty. That is why I order one on Ebay from China.
I sure would like HTC to acknoledge the problem & provide us with a replacement back cover. But we could be wayting a long time.

To answer your direct question, & not to confuse anyone, the new cover that I have installed on my Titan comes from an other AT&T Titan phone.
But for those people in Europe, I know that they have a different Back cover because of the Carrier operation frequency.
Hope this help.
I have 2 back covers at the moment, i got one from china that im using at the moment and im removing the paint and polishing the original, and after reading this ive just tested both of them and found the one from china does give worse reception than the original. But ive found that if your very very gentle and careful you can tweak the contacts on the phone so they make better contact with the case, and now both backs work fine. This might not be a permanent fix as taking the case on and off may push them back but it may be useful if anyones stuck while waiting for a new back .

Hello there,
I just called HTC & they are shipping me a replacement back cover for my HTC Titan.
They do replace one accessory during the warranty period.
So if you still have a problem with your reception, maybe try a different cover that HTC can ship to you.
Hope this help.
Thanks pjodm
My new back cover will be shipped tomarrow. Hope i get a good one.

HTC Customer service told me that we have 15 days after receiving the new cover to call them back if things have not improve or else.
My hope is high because I have something to compare with.
I took a long time to explain them all what I did to find what was the problem, & told them that there was lots of other Titan Fans that where fustrated with this issue.
Hope the message get across higher echelons in HTC Company.
Spread the word if this fixed your problem.

It is a great phone, i would say go buy it, i'm sure you'll like it. I am very impressed of mine.
I bought mine on AMAZON. It's the black cover (and not from China!).
The frequency doesn't have anything to do with it as it's in the phone's configuration, not the back cover...
Anyway, I'm using it since yesterday and all I can say is.... WOOWW!! What a huge difference. I'm starting to love my phone again !!!
(Before that, I was about to throw it on a wall ....)

At least it solved mine.....
Humor me...
Take your old backplate... at the bottom (shown on this pic)
http://wmpoweruser.com/htc-titan-having-antenna-issues/
scrape it with a file.
I did this... (even accidentally scraped one completely off) and i went from 2-3 bars to 4 and 5, never dropping below 4 on ATT 3g plus (says 4g on US version of titan)
Will test tomorrow to full confirm but i think i just saved myself from buying a new back.
If this improved i may to in on all of the connections to backplate.
