I've read the other posts about people having broken/malfunctioning vibrate on thier Wallabies, and have the same problem. I just figured I would ask ya'll if you've had this problem, or might know why vibrate ceases to function. In all reality, it crapped out before the ROM update, which I was hoping would fix it, but this still did not. Anyway, please tell us if thier is a solution/reason. Think it's a Motherboard prob, or vibe prob? Thanks ya'll.
EDIT: My motor was burnt up... got a hold of another vibe motor and swapped. Works great now.
most probably ur vibrator has screwed up...
The vibrator on the XDA II keeps screwing up every now and then. I guess the build quality is not so good on the inner side of the XDA IIs. The vibrator has konked of more than once for me, the speaker gives an irritating noise speaking on a phone call....that makes me use the headphones all the time, and service guys dont have a clue on how to fix it.
hmm, welcome to the world

where did you get the rom upgrade from .
you can create (cook) your own custom rom from the rom kitchen
Hi, I have the Galaxy Note i717 and had to replace my charging port as it had stopped charging reliably. I bought one of the many on ebay for around 8 bucks. I proceeded to put it in when I received it but to my dismay I no longer could get service at all, just wifi. So just to verify it was nothing I broke I put the old pcb back in and service returned. At that time I believed it was just a defective unit, so second try at it same thing no service old one works fine. Is this a problem anyone has ran into before? Any help I would appreciate.

It is quite possible that either your new port is the wrong part, or is damaged.
The port wiring is different between models ...I.E. SGH-I717, N7000, and other note models.
Even the charge cables are different part numbers between models, but visually look identical.
It just sounds like the port wiring is different to me ..
I suggest getting the port directly from samsung...even though it will cost a bit more.
At least then you have a fall back if the port won't function.
Or perhaps have the port repaired by Samsung directly ....
I'm sorry I can't offer more help .g

Well both pcb boards that they sent me have the same markings as the one I removed. They also say on them SGH_I717_SUB_REV1.0_1107
So I do believe it to be the correct part. Just to clarify the new boards do charge the phone just cellular service stops. Maybe by some crazy luck I got two faulty boards. I wasn't sure they were going to send me a replacement so I ordered from another company as well so I guess I will have to see if that one works,
Interesting ....
The part seems okay ...
And the odds of two bad ports in a row is remote at best ....
Some time ago I saw a thread about an extra wire that traveled down from the antenna to the charging port....
And users were reporting that this very small wire was being damaged or missed when the port was serviced.
I've never seen this wire or connection ......but I figured I'd bring it up ..
Try a general search on the topic ...and see if it yields a result.....
I just remember it being a big deal ....g
Just wanted to update the post in case this happens to anyone else. After getting the free replacement for the first part I believed to be defective I also ordered from another company as it took more than a month for my replacement, so I believed them to had stood me up. Well the one from the other company arrived today, and worked. Maybe the others were for different networks or something. I don't know if that is possible Rogers vs ATT frequencies and what not but it worked and all is well.

I am having issues as well...
My phone has a Rev1.0_1107 part, and I cannot charge unless I play with the cable, so i decided to replace this port.
1st was from China (ebay) and received no signal, only wifi. Rev1.0_1107
2nd was a replacement from the same company, same issue. Rev1.0_1107
3rd was from a place in CA (ebay) and is Rev2.0_1206 and same issues.
I can put my original part in there, and I get signal just fine... anybody have any ideas on this matter? It's frustrating to have to keep battery swapping and would like to get this fixed.

Noted... thanks. I have searched them out and they only appear to have the cable for the N7000. Can anyone else recommend a place to buy these from?
Just noticed that when it's near my window, I get 1 bar of service... So it's like my signal strength is uber weak. I have a microcell in my home, and it is functioning properly (other ATT phones are connecting just fine) and works again as soon I put the original cable back.
Hi,I have a samsung Note N7000.
I'm have a similar issue,start with high power charging issue every 5seconds.I bought a replacement from ebay company in New Jerse it fixed that problem.but it created a problem when I make a call the other end can not hear me.I email the company and they sent #2 replacement.after
the charging port board was installed now I dont have any signal for service.the pcb# N7000/i9220_sub_Rev1.0.
I'm going try different company.what should I be looking for?I'm wasting too much time on this.

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I wanted to bring this to others attention. What Gregsarg said about a white wire running down from the antenna is correct, or at least it is on an i717. It runs down from the right hand side of the board, behind where the flex board connects and onto the little round connector on the flex board, it's probably that that's been missed off of some phones as would be noticed by only getting 1 bar of signal! I've also noticed that the UK version of the note only has 4 brass connectors on the flex board 2 for the antenna and 2 for the speaker whereas the i717 has 5, 3 for the antenna and 2 for the speaker. I'm not sure what the difference is between a white or black i717 to be honest, i'd have thought it would only be the outer casing that had changed, I can't see them changing parts too, that just sounds stupid!
Anyway, the reason I'm posting is not just because of the above, it's because i'm in the middle of fixing an i717 for someone and was searching to see if a N7000 part would fit and although it looks as though it would I'm not willing to test that theory! I will say though that the missing brass connector is also connected to brass connector 2 on the Ariel/speaker module but on the flex board that connector also has a resistor above it which would likely cause an issue!
The part that i'm ordering is from a company in the UK but is a Rev 2.0 board and not the rev 1.0 that is in it already so i'm hoping that's not an issue else i'm gonna have to buy from China which is cheaper but will likely take an age to get here and the customer wants it done ASAP so what they want they get! I will update this thread once i've fitted the part and got it running along with a link to where I got it from.

When getting the part, Revision usually does matter. Also the serial number under the revision number (Usually starting with DRC or DRG) can also matter. Getting the identical one is usually the best bet (albeit not the easiest considering people on ebay use stock images and don't show you the ACTUAL part you're getting.)

I got the new part this morning, it was a REV 2.0 board and after putting it all back together including the white/grey ariel wire I can report that it's working perfectly, as good a signal as it had before and is now charging properly. The link to the UK based seller is here for anyone interested that needs a replacement in the UK - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300819833823?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 The part is £19.99 with no P&P and arrived in 1 day. Just in case the link doesn't work then the name of the supplier is gravedigga1.
EDIT:- I heard back from my customer today who has reported having problems with wifi, signal and loudspeaker! Therefore the Rev 2.0 part won't act as a decent replacement for the Rev 1.0 unfortunately. I wasn't able to fully test as the customer didn't leave his sim card in and he uses 1 of those weird networks which I don't have a sim for. I have managed to source another UK supplier on ebay for an even cheaper price of £12 and they verified that it is a Rev 1.0 board they have in stock and have put 1 aside for me. Once I know that one works for definite i'll report back again just to update the thread but this time the customer is bringing the phone when the new part is here so it can be tested fully before it goes back to him!
I just find it strange that even though the Rev 2.0 is exactly the same in every way as the Rev 1.0 board that it has these issues although i've not heard of the loudspeaker problem before so I think there's a fault with it anyway.
Yeah these notes are getting really dodgy in their old age. We've decided to basically not fix abutting except the screens anymore because getting the right parts is a nightmare.

This may be a little off key here and if I'm in the wrong thread I apologize but...
I have the i717, bought the charging port off of eBay and replaced it. After plugging in the phone the touch keys at the bottom lit up like I was in business. After allowing the phone to "charge" for about 2 hours, the touch keys were the only thing to work and light up on the phone. I could press the lock key on the side and the touch keys would come off and on like it was on the lock screen but the screen was black. Has anyone encountered this before? If so, please help!
Thank you
Btw, it seemed like the phone was charged/charging bc those touch keys were on...
samsung sgh-i717 usb port
Well I have tried three different suppliers and I have not found a board that works correctly . Some boards that network strength is weak , some boards the microphone doesn't work , some boards that speaker won't play . I have reinstalled my original board back in my phone and every time it returns back to working properly. I just need the USB /charge port to work . Please if you have any ideas let me know ib6469 @ yahoo . com . Thank you very much for or help
Pease Help..i717..charge port
Hello ,
My name is Russ and I have a Samsung Galaxy Note SGH-i717 ( AT&T ) which I love . About two months ago the charge port quit working , so I ordered one from Ebay ( Flex cable , Mic/USB board ) , installed it and my signal was weak after installing it so I reinstalled the original board and it went back to full power . I thought it was a bad board , so they sent me another , I installed board #2 and the speaker on the back had no sound , put my board back in and the speaker went back working . So I had the supplier send me another board #3 . I got it installed , and the Mic wouldn't pick up , I put my board back in everything goes back to normal . So I thought it might be the supplier , so I tried a different supplier , same thing . In total I have tried three different suppliers and I lost count on how many boards I have installed .. Every time I can reinstall the original board and it will stop whatever it's doing wrong . My board Number is SGH_I717_SUB_REV1.0_1107 , DRBL12IN BF , 69 . I am at a lost , I don't know if there's something I'm doing wrong . Thank You for your time ib6469 ( Russ )
same issu
Please let me know if anyone has had any luck finding a board that works... i am in the exact same boat... email me at bnanda0827 at yahoo.com

So it looks like basically fixing the charge port on a galaxy note just isn't going to hapen if you want service. Nobody has found a solution?
