I am trying to track down battery replacements for the Viewsonic G Tablet; and yes I did go through all of the threads to see if this information has already been posted elsewhere.
I would like to have the information handy in case mine decide to crap out. Has anyone been able to find a source, part number or anything on this subject?
Wasnt aware that the battery was exchangable.
You will have to open the case and remove/replace it yourself or send it in to viewsonic. I would just prefer to replace it myself...
Any leads on this would be great... I would love to have the option to do this myself so I wouldn't have to bring my Gtab back to stock and ship it to Viewsonic.
Is there someone out there willing to open their tab and get numbers off the battery to research this?
Someone has done a tear down, I think you would need to find out what the make/model of the battery is. Once that is done, you shouldn't have a problem sourcing one.
Pictures of the inside of the gtablet here:

Here are two pics, battery and label. I wonder if there is a source which sells this battery? My tab won't charge up and I'm thinking it could be the battery.
Does anybody know the price on a new Battery ??

I can't figure out where to get one, much less the cost.

How old is you gTab? Seem really odd that it would already have killed the battery... likely a hardware failure of some sort
Going to call Viewsonic tomorrow and see how much one is going to be.

I bought it from woot this year... I was thinking a bad battery, perhaps, although hardware failure is a possibility.
The tablet works fine if the charger is plugged in.
raven, I'm going to try that too but I'm not very hopeful that they can help.
I may also go down to the battery store and see if they can make one.
Can you give me the measurements? In inches or milimeter. I am actually going to take mine apart tonight, you can get single cell lipo batteries in about any configuration imaginable. I was just looking at thin cells in 10K mah it would take a couple days to charge but would last a couple on a charge also. The main thing to be accurate on would be thickness I would think.
I've already put mine back together, sorry.
I called up Viewsonic and they want me to send in the tablet so they can look at it. And they said if they found something wrong they would replace the tablet free of charge. lol
Ha! They said the same thing to me, I mailed it yesterday.
Thats awesome, but I would prefer being able to just purchase parts if I could. What would be crazy if they sent you the new dual boot version instead.
There is a guy (rosco_pc) who is in China and had gotten some other gTab parts over there; I asked him if he'd seen the battery anywhere. He checked with the suppliers he used and said he wasn't able to locate one.
He gave me these characters to use in a search:
万利达电池
Part of that is "Malata" and part of it is "battery" (IIRC). Malata makes a lot of electronics, so sifting through the search results from that are tiring. But you could try it.
I found a wholesaler who had one very close to ours, but you had to buy 1000 at a time.
Malta Info
Try malta dot com. My gTab show up on the web market as Malta VEGAn-TAB for selection.

For some reason my 1st post didn't take!
Try the AT&T store. A colleague of mine dropped his new iPhone 4 last week smashing the camera lens. On the off chance he went to the AT&T store, and although the part was not there in the store, they have ordered it for him free/gratis. Never hurts to ask! I was dumbfounded when he told me this, but it happened nevertheless.
Guess my 1st post did take cos' I see you posted the same question in both General and Q&A, and I apparently responded to both.
Please don't do this again!

Damn! He posted it in a 3rd???
/ignore from now on!!!
It seems i've made something wrong...
yes i've posted in three forums, just because i didn't know in which one the topic fit the best :
1-Atrix 4G General
Discussion about the AT&T Motorola Atrix 4G (general, tips & tricks, Q&A, etc)
It is a general question (looking for spare parts) and the forum description includes Q&A.
2-Atrix 4G Q&A
For all of your questions relating to the AT&T Motorola Atrix 4G
This is a question!
3-Atrix 4G Accessories
Accessories for the AT&T Motorola Atrix 4G (cases, screen protectors, batteries, etc)
not an accesorie but about spare part, so it is related.
I just wanted to maximize the chance to get an answer by posting in these forums.
Before posting, i've checked that in any of them there was a thread about replacement part for power button/fingerprint reader replacement part.
So please calm down, there is no need to ask for ignore/ban me. As all of you (i hope!) i'm human and we can do mistake and learn from. I did one and i won't do it again.
Back to the original topic
Thank you CaelanT for your answer but i'm in europe, so reaching a AT&T store will be difficult/very expensive for me...
(yes, i've posted in ATRIX 4 AT&T forum, but for this replacement part it doesn't matter, and this phone is not only sold in US: canada, belgium, UK, fance... and this is the only one forum about Motorola Atrix in this website),
It is easy to find replacement part for screen or other part on the net, but i've spent one full day looking for fingerprint reader and found..... nothing!
Moreover it is a pity for a phone which is so easy to open and replace/repair itself (tutorial available on ifixit)
Anyone else has any idea/suggestions/websites for replacement parts?
You posted a question............so I am guessing Q&A not every forum!
This is all I could find in a quick search for parts:

I am having the very same issue and none of the replies here are helping. All I am seeing is persons complaining and sending people all over the place to other post which dont have the answer. I have been searching online for a solution and I am not seeing anything other than take it back to at&t which is not possible because at&t is in America.
Anyways If there is someone kind enough to (1) explain where is the actual power button located (in the finger print scanner or under the scanner) and (2) what to change to get this fix( eg a ribbon, the finger print scanner or is there a button I should buy). I am not looking for a work around what I want to do is change what ever it is that I need to change to get fix.
Thing is, power burton is a soft button sitting below the fingerprint reader, it is completely independant. Thing is, i dont remeber if it is soldered to the motherboard or is apart. Either way, i think tou need to get it from another atrix.
Here at the forum a user posted a site that sells spare parts at low prices, perhaos they have what you need!

It's part of one of the flex cables.
There is a picture of it here at the iFixit teardown:
http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Motorola+Atrix+4G+Teardown/4964/2
and one with the tape removed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2379939
Have you tried ebay? There spares all over the place and if you don't find the flex itself you may as well buy an Atrix with a broken LCD and use it for parts.

Two ebay sellers told me that the flex cable dont come with the power button so I took your advise and bought one that is damage, lcd and digitizer. This will in fact work out better for me being that my digitizer is bad ( already had order one which is on its way) I broke off the wifi button on the board and not the power button got damage.
So for all the people out ther asking about the power BUTTON ITS RIGHT UNDER THE FINGERPRINT SCANNER AND IS NOT SOLD ON THE FLEX CABLE YOU HAVE TO GET IT FROM AN OLD ATRIX SAME FROM THE WIFI EITHER GET IT FROM ANOTHER ATRIX OR BUY A MOTHERBOARD .. I have no idea where to get a board from.
Hello everyone Sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong forums.
I just bought the Samsung Note so now I am trying to sell my unlocked SGS2 on Ebay. I have the charger, extra battery, and unlock code for device (in case person ever has to do a master reset). Of course its refurbished 9 has been used for 2 months) but is in good condition despite a barely noticeable, minor scratch on back cover (see pic).
What is a fair/good asking price?
I'd recommend looking at auctions on there that have already ended and get a good idea from that. That's the best way I've found to determine current value of specific items on there.
How about you post in the classified section instead of trying to sneak your ad in where it doesn't belong?

Ummm actually I'm NOT trying to sell it on here. keyword was "EBAY" I simply asked a QUESTION b/c I was unsure if my asking price of $275 on ads I'VE ALREADY PLACED elsewhere was too much or little. So how about you enjoy your night and thank you very much for you sarcastic/pointless response.
Whatever you say. I'm sure that since you did mention eBay that you have no way to actually see what they are selling for there instead of coming in here where probably few people have actually sold their SGSIIs and weren't really trying to squeeze in an ad without anyone noticing. Uh huh.
Lol whatever you say dude.

Hi everyone, I really need some help/suggestions..
I ordered a replacement usb flex cable, and my replacement part arrived today - but another more serious problem has arisen - one of the screws on the back of the Galaxy S2 won't budge and is now worn down after repeated attempts to remove it
All 6 of the other screws came out perfectly, but one screw in the bottom left of the phone is completely stuck, I tried so hard to remove it but it won't move or turn at all...what could be the reason? Is there glue in that area inside the phone that might've melted and re-stuck? It's terrible, I was waiting a month for my replacement part, and now I can't open it!! :crying:
Please help me if you have any advice!
Just curious, what kind of thought processes do you go through that results in you deciding it's a good idea to post the same thing twice in the forum ? I'm asking because try as I may, I just can't comprehend posting an issue twice (or more in some cases with other people) making it more likely to get a response/help with your issue.
Help me out ?
Yeah, that's a totally fair actually. I was going to come and post this here as a new thread, in the hopes that it'd get some attention from people who might possibly have had the same problem before. At the same time though I had somebody wanting an update on the situation in a thread about USB flex cables. I was lazy, and I just copy/pasted the text.
I'd be happy to remove this thread if you'd like - I just thought it'd be buried and go unnoticed if left in the thread about USB flex cables - and since it's such a rare problem which I really would like some help with, I thought it needed all the attention it could get.
Sorry for the double post..
Points for honesty Nah, leave this thread. If you have this closed & just rely on the post you made to that other guy's thread, fair chance it will get lost/buried & you won't get an answer.

No one knows any site beside Ebay...??
I used to go to cnn.cn, but it seems like the site is down now, who knows how long it been like that.
Amazon. Remember to get the ones with buttons already on it. Saves a lot of time and effort.
