Expect a price shock tho
i think that back housing, battery cover are the same on MDA II and XDA II, right?
Right!
Actually, the whole housing fits the MDA2, i-MATE, 2020, and such since they are all Himalayas!
I remember seeing some place that sells them for about $50 U.S. Dollars but I cant find the link anymore...
Hi there,
today I accidentally broke the touchscreen of my MDA Compact.
I am now doing an investigation for prices for Screen to repair the damn thing myself and prices for reparation.
It seems that it is very expensive.
Does someone know where to find cheap prices.
Maybe a cheap second handed screen could be found?
If it will be too expensive I will consider bying a S110 or 9090.
Do you agree?
Thanks!
Hello,
Welcome to the the club of people who need spare parts. In your case you might find somebody who sells you an new or used screen, but in all other cases in needing spare parts we are out of luck. It seems that HTC Europe and all most every repair service wount sell spare parts.
I have a friend in Asia who is looking for me if he can get some spare parts for me.
If not, than I have to buy somebodies dead magician and use it for spare parts. Maybe it's something for you in case you can get a new screen for an good price.
Well let me know if you want to sell your dead magician.
Good luck
Hi I live in the United Staes. I am now presented with an opportunity to be able to buy the O2 Exec. So basically I have 2 choices, the Imate Jasjar which is available here, thus with warranty coverage, or the O2 XDA Exec which I really want for its color. I don't really know if there is a hardware difference. I want to buy the O2 Exec from one of the members here. He was kind enough to offer the responsibility to send it to O2 if there is a problem with it later.
Does the I-Mate Jasjar have the corporate settings too?
So if you guys were me, what would you guys go for?
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
Having owned both a JJ and Exec I would, at this point, recommend the Exec because:
- in Corporate mode it is quicker and has more storage space
- it does not appear to have the SMS notification bug
And like you I prefer the all black colour of the XDA.
Also in the UK you can get an unlocked Exec for less than £300 while a JJ can be £540/£640 (contract/SIM free).
The hardware is identical, and the corporate settings on the Exec closely resemble the Jasjar install when you skip the customization after a hard reset. In all honesty, I ended up buying the Exec, it looks way cooler, it also has BLUE keyboard backlight instead of red, which makes it much much better visible at night.
@Jah. Could you kindly elaborate what the SMS notification bug is. I am asking this because for me on the JJ ocasionally when a new SMS arrives it causes my phone to freeze. Just wondering if this is what you are referring to as the bug.
Kind Regards

Unfortunate for me that I don't know anyone in the UK. I'll be buying the Unopened Box O2 Exec for £500.
That is what I paid as well, and not too bad in comparison with Jasjar and Qtek 9000 prices.

Did you bought it direct from O2 or from one of the members here?
Any tips as to check the validity of the sale?
I already asked the seller to send me pictures of the SEALED box. Is there actually a seal or it is just in a box?
@srmz
Yes, that is it. Search here there a whole thread on the SMS problem
@cktlcmd
This is probably something you already considered and checked, but I thought I'd bring it up just in case. My main concern would be the question of whether it's locked or unlocked. For £500 I would imagine it should be unlocked. Which carrier will you be using?

From what I know, all O2 Exec are unlocked. I will be using Cingulair in New Jersey. Do you also have a universal? If yes, how is the reception? Any comments? Thanks for responding.

Yes, I have a Jasjar and use T-Mobile. I'm not a big user on the voice side of things and haven't had any problems with reception, but my limited use of that aspect might not make me the best source for an opinion.
I do use the data connection often (which is why I like T-Mobile's $19.99 unlimited data) and haven't had any problem getting a signal that way.
Ultimately I'm really happy with it because it's just the device I've been wanting. I use it for just about everything.
OK, I just bought the BRAND NEW, UNOPENED, O2 XDA Exec. I can't wait for it to be on my hands. Any tips as to a good screen protector, and where to buy it from? A link would be really appreciated.
Would you mind sharing where & how much for the unit? I am interested in getting one to be used in CA on T-Mo. Thanks.

I bought it from one of the members here for 550 UK including shipping and handling via FEDEX to New Jersey.
Basically, I just waited and watch this site for most of my free time. I just grabbed it when it presented itself. :wink:
Thanks for the info, I think I'll wait till next week & get the Qtek version locally, just don;t care the colour of the iMate version.....

I bought my screen protectors from PPC Techs at http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~unit~iMATE_JASJAR-496~area~home.htm
Their WriteSHIELDS come in two flavors, the C2 (Crystal Clear) and the AG (Anti Glare.) I've used both and found they are both very good. I have a crystal one on my old Dell and have never had to change it. To me, the crystal one is so clear that you really don't know it's there. That said, I have the anti glare one for my Universal, primarily because of the phone aspect. The anti glare version (which also stands up to usage very well) is also good with keeping fingerprints to a minimum so it works better when you have it up to your face too. PPC Techs offers a package where you can get one of each and that's actually what I bought for the Universal, I'm just using the AG currently.

I bought my Jasjar from Convergent Technology at http://www.convergentech.com/
Their price looks to be $1079.99, down from $1199.99 when I bought it. The color (colour )was never an issue for me, so I went with a company I had already worked with to give me a bit more confidence that any issues I might have (which I haven't, fortunately) would be worked out with a minimum of headaches.
kelford, thanks for the info, the vendor you used is fairly pricey, e.g. their price on the K-Jam is nealry $150 over what MMB charges! I had to do a double take to make sure they are not posting C$

sclui56, that very well could be. at the time i was looking to buy though, every vendor i found (except ebay) had the JJs for $1,200 so there didn't seem much of a choice at the time. that was when it was first out though, (some sites still listed pre-order status when this vendor had them in stock) and prices hadn't started falling yet. obviously their prices drop much slower than everyone else's! they must have less gravity or something.
in any event, there were two reasons i bought from them. 1) all of my previous PDA purchases had been direct through Dell so this one was a little different and being such a high ticket item there was a real trust concern. going with someone i knew was important. 2) (and probably even more importantly) i wanted it now!!! so yes, i could have waited and saved some money, but now i've had all this time to play with the JJ!

Thanks for the tip Kelford.
like my previous HTC devices, dropped this one too. But unlike those old models, very difficult to find a new housing for Athena. Doesn't come cheap from HTC.
Has anybody been through this.
Theres already a thread about an online outfit selling black x7500 cases. Think they wanted $100.. Have a search.
Athena/U1000 Housing
Thanks for the advice. I am looking for the original housing of the unit. Not an add-on protective case. Living close to Shenzhen (birthplace of all accessories) is very useful for me. Unfortunately, cannot find the original body of U1000 so far.

geekyfellow, madhadder is talking about a new metal factory enclosure like you want, not a carrying case.
I'm just about one day of receiving my TyTN II (Kaiser), but I need some help with the accessories.
1. Where is the cheapest and best places to get accessories to Tytn II who ships internationally (Denmark)? Has to be EU countries or else have to pay extra stupid local Danish taxes.
2. Which screen protectors will protect the whole TyTN II best? Have read a long thread, without haven't found out which is the best. Have heard good things about Martins Field, but what is the most safe bet?
3. Is there a thread which have gathered a list of good applications to TyTN II, because I don't know where to start?
Thanks for any answers.
Anyone that can help?
Did you search for any of this?
Can't help with number 1.
There are many good screen protectors. I got mine on eBay. Did you know the Tytn ll comes with a screen protector. Invisible shield, Boxwave Clear Touch, and NuShield are good brand names or try this on for size; http://www.epinions.com/content_1950392452
As far as question 3 is concerned, do a search for "must have apps". There are several threads in xda and many other forums. Don't get hung up on the Tytn ll compatability, just look for windows mobile stuff.
Enjoy the new toy!
Jep I did, but it doesn't give you much help when searching on international shipping.
I will try and search for must have, but I didn't know it came with screen protectors. Cause when I wrote the shop for what the package includes, the didn't mention that at all! Do you know how they are the ones that comes with?
I WILL enjoy it
