It's a hardware problem, you need to give it to a service center, your battery might be dead, or the motherboard maybe...

See, that's why i told you to give it to a service center, I'm not an expert in hardware issues, it was just a guess, anyway, it's great that it was fixed, congratulations :good::good:

By a service center, i meant any technician not the phone's specific service center, the phone's specific service center will always be expensive, my English isn't well, so i didn't remember saying "local repair shop" :silly:

Corrupt Bootloader :-( Dead Qtek2020... Need Urgent help...

I was updating my bootloader using the pnewbootloader.exe app found on the xda developers FTP this morning and something weird happened.
When the app was done it wrote 000000x000000 at the end and that was it. After updating my bootloader I restarted my phone, but it wouldn't start. It just froze at a black screen. Nothing.... I doubt if it's even on. Tried charging it and then turning it on but no responce. Even the Led is dead. I tried all sorts of methods to bring back to life but all has failed. It won't even charge for god's sake. I noticed that when i remove the battery and charge it without the battery, the led would turn red. Otherwise the device is completely unresponsive.
I desperatly need help hear you guys. This is a call for all the Pocket PC geniuses out there. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you have only two options..
GO TO THE NEAREST SERVICE CENTER and let them fix it for you
or
Do this (the instruction is for wallaby)
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WallabyJTAG
if you get the result : 000000000:00000000 .. you upgrade your device correctly.. but why it kills your device .. i really dont know ..
the correct bootloader for HIMALAYA are boot_1.03.nb0,boot_1.01.nb0 and bootloader_1.06.nb0 ..the other bootloader in FTP the 515.nb0, 517.nb0 is for WALLABY .. bootloader_for_wm5.0 is not a bootloader but an IPL thats why i added in the name and warned not to use it.
anyway i already gives my warning about Downgrading/Upgrading a bootloader
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=124909#124909
and was about to post HOW to do it .. but i change my mind since i also kill my Device due to some research and experimenting using an older than 1.01 bootloader

where can I find a service center here in manila?
tnx a lot
Thanks for your tip but ......
Well from what it seems I must have fried my device.... Now my question would be, how the hell are they gonna fix it ? And how much will it cost ?
If it's a matter of flashing a new bootloader then it shouldn't cost too much, but if they plan to replace a rom chip then I would suspect high repair charges.
If any body has any idea how much it might cost to have this problem fixed please don't hesitate to mention it cause it will surely make a difference.
If it's gonna cost me alot then I would rather buy a used xdaII and use it as spare parts for my original xdaII. Probably change the whole PCB and have it replaced with the used xdaII's PCB

if it is under warranty .. just dont tell them about flashing your bootloader .. they will fix it with no cost .. but if already out-of-warranty .. then i dont know how much really it cost for them to repair it ..
but there is always one fact in service center .. no matter how big or small they will do to your device .. it will take long before you can get your device back ..

I got one question here .....
First of all allow me to extend my thanks to Toenailed for his help on this. Now for my question. I don't get ..... How come, after all the software and hardware knowledge we've got here in this forum, we still can't fix corrupted bootloaders ? Can it be true that service centers have special hardware equipment designed to flash corrupted bootloaders ?
I live in U.A.E, Dubai .... and to be honest, I'm pretty sure that the service center is gonna tell me that the PCB needs complete replacement. Our service centers prefer to replace rather than to fix. I bet if I tell them about the bootloader issue they won't have a clue and insist on replacing the main PCB.
I seriously don't know what to do. I'M STUCK !!!!
is there a way that bootloader can be done without the need of the service centers?can you teach us?
Ok you guys this is ****'n serious **** ....
I sent my phone to the service center this afternoon, and guess what .... they couldn't understand what happened and have sugested to have the PCB changed. Changing a PCB would cost 1,400.00 DHS This is sooooooooooo ****'n expensive. A used pocket pc would cost 1200.00 DHS. I got so pissed off at this. Our service centers prefer to replace than to repair.
Now, it's been 18 hours without my pda and it's been a living hell so far. I'm so ****'n desperate right now that I could actually kiss the guy that comes up with a solution.
This is a call to all pocket pc experts including ( Buzz Lightyear, Toenailed, and Mamaich ) PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE you guys ... This is really heart breaking. I'm currently trying some reviving methods but so far I haven't been lucky with anything. I really hope you come up with a solution u guys !!!
There's only one way to fix the Bootloader is by using the Jtag method to the PCB which is not described or anyone went into this experimentation especially on the HIMALAYA's Board or later ones..
I'm sorry to disappoint you my friend but pray if Toenaild will go further more and study it :roll: and making it easy to happen...
I'm really stuck here .....`
Buzz Lightyear & ToeNailed
For God's sake please come up with a simplified version of the steps needed to repair a corrupted bootloader. I'm sooooooooooooo ****'n desperate now. Our local market doesn't even have spare parts or pcbs.

sorry mate, i can't help in this case...
I am willing to buy your unit for 150-200 USD (you pay shipping). please let me know if you are interested.
I am in Europe.
and, if you are not satisfied with my offer, take into account that for 450 USD you can get a brand new one with warranty here (not officially, surely )
i finally got my device back ..
i didnt pay even a centavos since it is still under warranty .. they replace the motherboard
i already ask them how much it will cost if i will pay the board and they said it should be around 1,950 to 2,950 Philippine Pesos (35.45USD to 54USD)

brightpoint doesn't repair xda anymore as per their customer representative. It took me 2 hours to got to their service center and spend time waiting for my turn just to tell me that they no longer repair/reprogram xda. What a waste of time and effort. Can you please advise me where to get this services, tnx.

[Q] [HELP] Xperia neo L Auto-touch screen Problem.

Posting in behalf of my friend .
The Screen is auto-clicking itself and when i re-flash stock firmware the problem still goes on .
The Sony Authorized Service Center , says that it will be repaired but he gave his phone 3 times there they are unable to repair.
Please Help him.
Firmware reflash didn't help.
Sony service center didn't help.. or didn't want to be bother with..
How exactly can we help you/him?
Depending on laws in your country, demand new device, since this one was 3 times on repair.

or you could send to sony for a free repair as this is known as a manufacturing issue and is covered by sonys 2 year warrenty which comes with all xperias
all you are required to have is proof of purchase and the device its self (also a sony service centre in your country)

Rma is Return merchandise authorization. It just means returning the device to the company for refund, repair or replacement.

Have you got it repaired from official mmx service centre or any local repair shop? Are these parts are genuine? and was your phone still under warranty? I'm using a310 and after accidentally dropping it in water the screen became dull. So, when I will come to india i want it to get repaired?

1. I got it repaired in a good local shop who gave me the gurantee that nothing would go wrong.
2. Og parts are never availablw anywhere except the service centre.
3. The Micromax service centre takes two to three weeks to repair it because of scarcity of parts and in any local shop would take just a couple of hours.
4. I have a A310.
I have micromax nitro canvas a311, my mobile display was broken its 9 month old but I have one year warrenty it is possible to change my display under the warrenty. I went to care center but they said it is not possible to change display under warrenty display will cost 5500! I really dunno what to do?
I want that information

You want what information? Describe in detail whenever you ask something on XDA.
Broken screen replacement
Can anyone give me reliable source for spare parts outside of India, or even other compatibility models?
As i understand A311 is clone of Coolpad Great God F1 - or one of submodels.
I promise never ever buy indian phone!!!

Well I did asked on their service center. They said that is comes in combo (Screen+Digitalizer) but a local repair shop claim he can replace my digitilzer without screen replacement. You better should ask local service shops near you.
Yep. That's possible. But it's way too hard and has a high chance of failure. That's why the people at service center tend to replace the complete assembly. If you can get it changed by a professional then it might be worth it but don't even think about changing it yourself. I tried it and failed.
