I recently determined the flash light and vibrator parts for my MDA are part of the problem for my MDA not booting up. Once replaced with my other MDA's parts or just removing it completely, the MDA boots up fine.
Would anybody know where to buy the flash light and vibrator alone?
The only search results I find on ebay are WHOLE MDA's sold for parts.
I would appreciate the help as having two MDA's is better than one ! Thank you!

My second MDA just had its baclight die. Its on, but very dim, even when connected to a charger. This was a replacement MDA from TMobile, and I only have had it for a couple months. I hope their customer service will send me a new one, this gets to be quite irritating.
Will the US ever get an MDA2? If so, I have a AT&T T616 I can use in the meantime if I can hold out and upgrade there. I just seem to have bad luck with the mda 1's
MDA no backlight
I have the same problem. First, i thought it was the LCD Touch Screen, so i bought another LCD touch screen from Ebay and replaced it, but the same thing happen when i turn my MDA on, still no backlight. My next guess would be the flex cable. Anyone has solution for this, please share. thanks.
Ihave same problem...

Hello
2 days ago I got a T-mobile MDA from a friend. Only the MDA and a cradle. It had not been used for at least half a year. At first I could not make it work as it did not react to the stylus on the touch screen. But after some resets it slowly came on, and was fairly working (slow sometimes)
As I wanted English SW, I downloaded one and installed. After some time the problem came again, and I decided to switch back. Then it stopped working again.
Sometimes I can get to the calibrating touch screen, but then it stop reacting.
I read about similar problems on this website, but I cannot install the file tpenable.exe until I get into operating system, and can use the touch pad.
I tried with a couple of ROM-versions, but it seems to have no influence. Still, to me it feels like a SW-problem.
Anyone have some suggestions?

Follow up
Here is a follow up on my problem:
I discovered that if I press hard at the lower quater of the touch screen, sometimes it works again. This points more to a HW problem.
I took the MDA apart a couple of times, but could not see anything wrong. Does anybody know how the touch screen technically works?
I noticed in another post about someone with a similar problem. Do anybody know what exactly he was soldering?

Hi,
i bought a used mda via ebay and got it yesterday.
First thing i noticed was that the touchscreen didnt work right... i somhow managed to get through the calibration tool that poops up if i turn the device on. After that the touchscreen worked really good for 1 day and then suddenly it stopped working completely...
Anyone had this problem before and can give me some advice ?? I already got a 20e refund but i want to try to repair the device instead of selling it as broken.
And another question i have: Can i use the wm 2003se on a german device ??
Thank you
Seraptin
Edit: got it repaired myself... I opened the device and cleaned everything... there is still some dirt between the glass and the screen.. if anyone knows how to remove the glass to clean that, im listening But i dont think thats possible anyway.
my screen is broken
Hi,
Glad to read that you have repaired it yourself. I just dropped mine on the floor yesterday and the screen is broken. Touch screen still works but the screen is cracked and I can see a black spot. I wish someone can help me purchase a new screen. I would try to install it myself.

hi guys,
quick question.
ive just replaced my dopod838pro housing and upon completion, WM6 wont auto-rotate. where have i gone wrong?? is it something to do with the little square of yellow plastic???
please help
thanks,
Drooch
also
the screen backlight sensor wont work either.
ive done a hard-reset, changed the yellow plastic to the original plastic from the OEM housing. all the connections are firmly connected and i am still suffering from
- no auto-rotate when sliding device
- keyboard backlight wont activate
please help as i dont want to send it 1500Km to get it fixed (outside of warrenty as well!)

Did u solve your problem? I have the same problem with you
Solution
I recently ran into the same problem swapping to a new housing. As it turns out the housing I bought did not come with the magnet needed for the phone to recognize that the keyboard had been slid out. Just take the magnet from the old housing and attach it to the new housing. See the below link for pictures.
