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
I have it ,but i m in Egypt Cairo

Has any one taken a universal apart, or could help me with some guidelines.
Read the Wiki or do some searching.. :evil:
We have the whole service manual of the thing! :roll:

Please post the link of the service manual!!!
Please scan it in if you don't have it in electronic form.
When I say "we", I'm referring to the users of this forum...
It's available for download from the FTP server.. :roll:
And you would know this if you bothered using 20sek on SEARCHING!
A search for UNIVERSAL SERVICE MANUAL gives all the info you need!
quiblet:
You are new to this site; please use the search function before asking. :!:
I find it highly unlikely that your problems are unique and never asked before.
Leek:
I'm at work, so I don't have FTP access.
It should be in the upload folder if I remember corectly.. :wink:
Are you saying I'm not a "user"?
I spent hours searching. I browsed the FTP server.
The Wizard manual is there (Prodigy dah dah dah).
In fact, I helped people find it, by linking to it (see my posts). We're not all clueless, but the site needs improvement as far as linking information. Just a week ago, the Wiki was entirely broken.
I don't see a Universal manual. I browsed around 6 days ago. I haven't seen any recent anouncements of a new one.
The Wiki has no link on the Universal page to any service manual. Lots of technical information and pictures, but no PDF service manual -- nothing like the Wizard's.
I'm a computer scientist and have been programming assembly code since 1985, so it's not like I can't navigate.
leek:
It was there when I downloaded a few weeks ago..
If it has been removed, I shall extend my sincere appologies to you.
I shall allso see if I have a copy on my harddrive when I get home..
Well, it looks like I don't have to appologize at all!
It took me less than a minute when I found a computer with FTP acces..
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Un...C_CONFIDENTIAL_-_UNIVERSAL_SERVICE_MANUAL.pdf
Now, I haven't been programming since 1985, cuz I was born in 1985.
But root\Universal\Manuals etc doesn't seem to be the worst place to look for a manual, is it?
Anyway; I'm glad you took the time to write a constructive reply to my post..
Most people don't bother..
Strange... I did not see that last week when I searched. If it was there, I don't know how I missed it.
I will fix the Wiki (assuming it works again) to point to it.
You have redeemed yourself. And so shall I.
Thanks - I have taken the Universal completely apart.

I have a headset fault that I have tried to fix by inserting the headset several times. And looks like I need a Motherboard. Does anyone know where I can get one????
Try this. You will have to send it to them I think.

Been trying to access to the ftp server and look at the service manual. but then it just say permission denied when i key in my user name. Do i need any special rights to enter the ftp site?
You need to right click on this link, select copy shortcut, open your browser and paste into the address bar.

eh? surely all you need is a 3.5mm 4 point headphone jack? the usual fault is the detection microswitch 'sticks' in place and closes the circuit so the phone always thinks there is a headset attached. What makes you thnk you need a board? And why isn't your unit under warranty being less than a year old? :?: ( exec brand universals have 2 years)
Richard
p.s if you *really* need a board drop me a pm.
Thanks for the info !
I have the 4 point jack that came with the unit, as for the microswitch is there any way to reset it ?? manually.
I bought my unit from Ebay shortly after the unit developed this fault and the O2 warranty states that the original purchaser only can use the warranty, HTC Europe on reading the website will repair it but for a charge.
So I'm painfully living with the fault currently.

Does the microswitch work? Have you put a metre accross the contacts and checked it? Usually they just stick rather than fail, but they are available as a spare if you look hard enough. ( Farnell's / CPC etc )
HTCeurope will not ( from experience ) repair XDA branded units. As for the warranty not being transferrable according to their terms, threaten to sue as it's against your 'hooman writes' or summat- works for me :wink: ( but never tried with o2 )
Richard
Where is the microswitch ????
Where can I measure on the actual headset jack??
Thanks

It's *inside* the socket, when you insert the headphone jack plug, it depresses to detect insertion. You measure across the contacts.

I see 4 contacts on the top of the Jack plug, I have measured for open & closed circuit but have come to no conclusion - to fix this If I unsolder the heaset Jack and then turn the unit on again will this cancel the microswitch just to prove the fault?? Then I will buy another jack??
Your thoughts
Thanks

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
I searched a lot of websites , but non of them offers mainboard for HD .
I need your help if anyone knows a place or someone who sells .
It's ok if taken from a broken device , i just need the part working fine
The audio/headphone jack in my HD2 T-mobile US broke and I want to replace it. I have been looking all over the internet to find the replacement part, part number or service manual of the HD2. Unfortunately, I have not found anything. Would anybody please provide the part number or place where I can buy new connector/socket?
Thanks in advance.
I am also interested to find this part. Have you had success in finding it?
Hi,
If yall there need it and I can try to get for you. Just drop me a pm
Cheers
