Hi guys,
I am looking around for a speaker for my XDAII... I havent been successful.... all the shops want to charge me for the repair when all I want is the part.
Does anyone have an XDA they use for spare parts to sell me their speaker or maybe a dead device they want to sell ???
I am in London... willing to pay by paypal/cheque etc...
Urgent requirement!
Thanks,
Hi, saw your post and as luck would have it, i have an imate pda for spares and the speaker is still intact. I'm in cape town South Africa... PM me for more details
I just bought a used iMate Jam and it appears that the speaker is not working. How do would I test that to see if it is the problem?
I was hoping it was a software problem but seeing your post I now know the speakers do fail.
Thanks,
Jeff

All,
I recently purchased a T-Mobile UK MDA Compact and when I make a phone call the audio through the ear piece is very poor. The other person in the conversation keep getting a echo so they hear themselves repeating words also if they talk loudly the ear piece distorts. I took the phone to a T-mobile shop and they agreed with me and suggested I get a new SIM card which I did but it made no difference.
I also found that if I hold the MDA compact next to my ear with or without a sim card inserted and switched on I can hear some electrical interference coming from the ear piece.
I spoke with T-Mobile UK who said they was not aware of any problem but will send me a replacement. I have had 4 replacements now and all have the same problems poor audio and electrical interference and it is driving me mad now.
I used to have an old Siemens S55 and the audio conversation on that was so much better, it was like talking face to face with the person.
The only way I have managed to resolve this problem is too use my Sony HBH600 Bluetooth headset with the MDA Compact which produces much better audio. Has anyone else experienced these issues I am having?
Will a ROM update fix this problem?
Has anyone used the original i-mate Jam on T-Mobile UK and got these problems?
I spoke with a T-Mobile UK engineer who said the MDA Compact’s have downgraded audio in comparisons to other manufactures but in my opinion the audio is terrible.
Thanks

Hi Msuk,
Its not just you. I believe the problem is with the unit its self. I did read somewhere on this site that the problem lies in the earpiece speaker itself.
The link said that it was of low quality. The author of the post replaced the internal speaker with that of a better grade and the was a marked improvement on the quality of the audio. This unfortuantly seems to be the only way at the moment to improve the quality. I belive he replaced the speaker with one from a nokia 6610 as it was an exact replacement.
Just looking for link......
found it :

Hope this helps
It was me who replaced the speaker and YES a ROM upgrade to the latest ROM WILL improve the sound quality! So I suggest you first upgrade your MDA to the 1.11 ROM which is the latest (imate ROM seems to be the best so far) and if that doesn't help then try to change the speaker to a nokia 6610 one! But they seem to be exactly the same anyway! Just in some cases with the first T-Mobile ROMs the Magician was set to a very high volume that was making the speaker to blow up cause it could not handle the power load!
Thanks all, can someone tell me where I can get the latest i-mate 1.11 rom?
Thanks
Here is the link to the latest imate ROM http://www.imate.com/support/JAM/ROM/JAM_WWE_11100_132_11100.exe you have to unzip it to a folder and get the cracked MAUpgrade from XDA-Developers FTP, copy it to the folder you created with the ROM files and then RUN the cracked MAUpgrade and flash your T-Mobile phone with the imate ROM. In case you have problems the first time you try to upgrade then run again the cracked exe file and the second attempt will make it to the end of the upgrade procedure!
Hi,
Thanks for your response, when I upgrade my MDA with the i-mate 1.11 rom will I need to change the country code at all?
If so how do I do this and change it to what ?
Thanks
Msuk
Hi,
I am unable to connect to the ftp server could someone please send me the cracked MAUpgrade?
Also do I need to disable the USB connection in my ActiveSync before I run the MAUpgrade?
Thanks
Msuk
Hi,
I managed to get the cracked MAUpgrade but when I run it I get a country code error, does anyone know how I can get round this?
Thanks
Msuk
Hi katsj,
I have the MA_Dangaard_WWE_11100_129_11100 rom is there any advantage to upgrading to JAM_WWE_11100_132_11100.
And would it be better to do fresh install on all my apps or just restore from previous back. I'm not sure if restoring backups on a new rom will replace new setting and files the new rom upgrade puts in place.
Thanks
So, is there a point of changing the speaker if it is the same as 6610 one? Do I have to solder anything if I want to change speaker in my MDA Compact?
And what about the microphone? People who I call to, complaint that they hear me with triple echo?
I have a newest rom 1.11 for MDA Compact
Hi msuk,
I used this one it gave me no country error.
Hi. I recently upgraded my dopod 838 with the following rom
K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020710_ship.exe
because I was having problems with my stylus alignment(it kept screwing up atleast 20 times a day).
The phone worked well.. incoming calls and out going calls and media player...
after using media player, I could no longer get sound out of my phone.. All my calls were going through but I nor the person on other side could hear anything..
My phone rings to incoming calls but thats about... no sound otherwise.
I got the original dopod 838 rom
RUU_Wizard_1031305_116_11210_DopodAsia_WWE_Ship
from their site www.dopodasia.com but this rom didn't revive the sound either...
Other roms i tried were:
CUSTOM_RUU_Prodigy_2170702_217_20710_TMO_US.exe
Dopod_838_CHT_RUU.exe
186504-ruu_9100_2170702_21707102_20710_qtek_wwe_ship.exe
..no sound
Can I change a registry entry or something? or anything?? please help me.. I'm desperate!

Hi guys,
since I saw some users from India, I thought of asking you some questions. I am planning to buy a Qtek9100 or Kjam. Just wanted to know, if there are any service centers in India, preferably Mumbai or Bangalore ?
Also, any feedback using these phones will be appreciated.
I bought a Qtek S200 while visiting Britain during last April. The phone worked well until recently. Now it is stuck to headphone mode. It rings, but when answered none of the parties can hear each other. Any kind of sound is directed not to the speaker but to the earphone. Unfortunately the IMEI sends me to a service called Teleservice, and I am situated in Turkey, and when called this service wasnt even sure that they were servicing Qtek. Anyway, after 2 days of inspection they tell me that there was a problem with the mainboard and since this unit was bought abroad it was out of warranty. Years ago I had a problem with my Ipaq bought again in London, and Compaq had sent DHL to pick it up at my house sent to Ireland replaced and sent back with no charge. I dont know whether Qtek has a similar worldwide warranty, but at least I should have found a place, a person whom I could communicate, not a third party service.
Should I go on using it with headphones all the time?
WHAT kind of a company is that, you cant even find a way to communicate with them.
I sympathise with you about your situation. Especially the rotten support from Qtek :twisted:
Wanted to register mine on their website but was sent on a round-robin
In any case other people have had similar problem on the Atom and have resolved it by a few repeated insert and remove of the headset jack. Some say it is internal "shorting".
Good luck :wink:
Hi everyone! I wanna congratulate you xda developers for your excelente work in this world of the PDA. Sorry if my english is not right in some cases, in from Venezuela and it is hard to practice english with other thing that isn't the directv or movies
I buy a Hermes sometime ago and everything was ok, but last week the bluetooth stop working, it wasn't go on. Y some cases said Bluetooth Hardware Error. That scare me out. I can said that I take care of my phone like it was my child.. and sometimes better than my child it is sad but true.
I want to know if there is something I can do because that device have no guarantee here in my country and for politic reasons I can't easily send this device to USA for technical asistance.. so, I have to do it myself.
I have seen this links:
- http://www.pdacenter.ru/razborka/razbor_hermes/
- http://inuchanbt.blog54.fc2.com/blog-entry-100.html
But I don't know exactly where is the bluetooth antenna on the hermes so a have not open it because I will be driving blind.. For and start, can anyone tell me exactly were is the bluetooth antenna on the hermes??
I apreciate your help, and I hope that the bluetooth isn't bad, I think that find a new bluetooth antenna for this device is like try to find a PENTIUM MMX new and unboxed!
Thanks for your help!
Hi folks,
The USB connector on my Universal (an O2 XDA Exec) came loose a few weeks ago, so it's basically useless to me. I managed to get some charge into it by very carefully positioning it with tweezers so that it rests on the PCB correctly, but that's too much hassle for daily use. With the charge available, I did a factory reset to clear the onboard memory.
Other than that, and the main camera not working, everything is fine; the ROM is upgraded to WM6 thanks to the good folks here.
If somebody in the UK wants it for spares or whatever, just let me know - no fee, but something to cover postage would be appreciated, or I'm based near Staines if you want to meet up to get it. Please reply to this thread, so that everybody knows when it's taken.
Cheers,
Darren
Hi Darren,
I'd appreciate it, if it's still available please. I'll PM you
Is it still available? I'd really could use a screen!
Thanks!
Hi Darren
I would very interested in the Uni if is still available as mine needs a few bits and pieces after a dodgy recasing effort by a so called expert. I live in the UK and will gladly cover your postage.
If still available please PM
Hi folks,
Sorry for the late response. My XDA Developers account profile had an old email address, so I didn't get notified of your replies.
As the first person to reply, xiasma gets the phone.
Cheers,
Darren
