To cut a long story short, i dropped my xda2 in the toilet at work!
so went home and claimed it on my house insurance and i now own a lovely spvm2000 but im left with this xda2 thats been down the pan, the thing switches on and it all appears to work fine except its black listed, obviously coz i claimed on insurance so i will open it up and sling the pcb in the bin, unless anyone wants some componets from that, but i shall not be selling the phone complete or the pcb seperate. so for sale i have everything else here is a list of what i can think of
fully working screen with no scratches
houseing(scratched but back cover is fine)
4 styli (3 in original o2 retail pckaging)
all the box with instruction and sw cd
leather case
aluminium case (scratched)
Genuine Battery
Cradle
thats all i can think of atm, if u want any of it just make me and offer, dont want much for the stuff as its just sitting there redundant now and not being used!
if u can think of anything else that came with the phone that ive not listed let me know and ill let u know if i got it!

My 2i's charging connector broke. Sent it back to O2's repair centre and they specifically said that the mainboard has to be changed. Anybody here know of any thrifty way to get hold of a mainboard or a something similar? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Vincent
fixed same problem my self
Hi ,
I received a similar device from a collegue.
His charging connector was completely severed from his mainbord.
I opened the device and solderd it back on my self. Device is working again.
If you have te same problem maybe it's cheaper to find someone who can do this for you then looking for a replacement mailboard.
I have to say I had to try it 2 time because the connections where really tiny.
GreetZ
Rob
exactly...tiny...
You're right, it's very small, plus I have fat fingers. Well, maybe I should get someone to do it for me. I was hoping for a short cut solution and not too expensive one as well. I might try that after the holidays..
Hi There,
I recently had to replace my screen with one I got from ebay. However being slightly careless I damaged the ribbon cable that connects the screen to the Mainbored
Has anyone got any ideas where i may be able to locate one of these?
attached is a picture of the damaged part.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

You can order one from http://cnn.cn/shop/8525tytn-flex-cable-p-1732.html
That’s brilliant thanks, just ordered one. On the picture they have on there site I couldn’t see the black connecter which holds the cable in place. Guess ill see if it comes with it!
Thanks for you help much much appreciated.
can anyone say from where to get the flex cable nopw am in needliy urgent of the flex cable
sorry for my poor english
You can get both types on ebay(uk). Look for a username of shop-uk and they have both black and gold flex types (getting one myself to fix a hermes!). I think they are £15.99 GBP
Well ladies and jerks, I regret to inform you that my MDA is completely dead. I was in a car accident the other day and it went flying through the air and when I grabbed it off the floor of my car the USB charge plug was loose and had trouble connecting to the computer but still worked. Since then I had put a drop of super glue in there to hold the plug still and everything was fine untill this morning. My phone was left off with no battery in it untill the glue dried and still, everything was fine.
Now this morning when I went to grab my phone it was completely frozen and had 1% of battery life left so I soft reset and plugged the phone in and it was charging fine. I connected it to the computer and it would not connect at all. Now after playing with the cable a bit to get it to connect to the computer, the charge port is completely dead. It will not even let it charge with the charger and the little silver piece inside the plug is falling out.
Does anyone here have any idea what I should do to save my Wizard? I fear it may be the end for it.
Here's the big problem though. My device is CID unlocked and still has the TNT.1437 firmware on it so my warrenty is completely void. T-Mobile will not send me a handset exchange like this.
hi
t-mobile wouldn't send you a warranty replacement even if you had the official windows mobile on it. that is because, after you read the terms and conditions of the warranty, it does not include and in fact states quite clearly that 'excessive' use of the usb cable resulting in damaged charging port will not be replaced.
i realise this is not very helpful, so allow me to be helpful!
download the wizard service manual, if you PM me your email address i can email you a copy of one
what you will have to do is first obtain a new mini usb port from ebay or somewhere similar, i will try to hunt one down in america for you
following the service manual, you need to dismantle your handset, use some sort of rubbing alcohol (nail varnish remover) to get rid of the super glue you put on, first try to re-solder the old connector back onto where it came, or if not solder on the new one after removing the old one.
to be honest, you dont have anything to lose, but you could gain a working mda again!
good luck, and just a disclaimer to say im not responsible for any damage done to yourself, your device or anything else.

dharvey
hi
so sry to hear about ur accident and damaged MDA
t-mobile will certainly wont give u warranty replacement. It happened with me once also and only way out was ,I took it to a mobile repair shop and got the usb connector replaced for very nominal price.
duke_stix is right,get a mini usb and solder it. If u can do it,very well or take it to a techy to do it properly.
Once it's repaired it will be as good as new,goodluck

Good advice except don't use rubbing alcohol, it damages plastic. Use adhesive remover instead. (At my hospital we use little adhesive remover wipes similar to the alcohol prep pads.) We are told to use this method when cleaning adhesives from plastics and it works.

Thanks. Have you had any luck trying to find a service manual? I have been looking but with no success...
Well I managed to find a wizard service manual written in English for the US and got my MDA taken apart correctly without damaging it(I hope) only to find that all 9 contacts for the USB port are completely severed. Unfortunately I don't have the soldering skills to fix this on my own and there are no local repair shops where I can get it fixed seeing as how I am also out of a car...(see first post) so I am back to a Razr... UGH.... Anyways, I will remain an active member of the community and continue to help others with issues they may be having and help others flash roms because I found that I enjoy helping others.
I will, however, be leaving for a period of time in a few months because I am being deployed and most likely will not be returning with a Wizard but an HTC TyTN II. Don't worry though, I won't forget my friends back here in the Wizard forum( I know too much about these things to just pack up and leave now...)
Hi
sry to hear that,
But just another idea popped in my mind,if u can manage to get mini usb port than u can take it to any electronics repair shop, like tv,radio or any pc repair shop,it can be soldered,since u say u have the service manual u can show them the circuit layout,they can fix it.
yet,if u happen to have any sort or make of mobile (Motorolla,Nokia,samsung) which is pretty old and spent,of which u got no use,c if it has a mini usb port,usually every mobile does have it,and it has 9 connectors,take it out and get it soldered to ur mda.
Well, since its gonner,there's no harn in trying,

Thats a good idea, but I will probably just end up buying a new one off ebay for my girlfriend and play with hers all the time and then I already bought a TyTN II for myself.
Thanks.
So how about that manual??
That would be Sweeeet !!

First and Foremost,
Thank you sir, for answering the call of your nation. This American & his family thanks you from the bottom of our hearts.
In my ancestral culture's view, a patriot is second only to Saints & the Lord himself. May God watch over you & your team members.
I HAD to tell you that because every serviceman needs to know just how much Americans honor and cherish you!!!
(NEVER pay attention to the liberal media, they are sick diseased haters & hypocrites who are lucky to live in a land where they are allowed to lambast & denegrate those who are truly honorable.)
About your wizard, there are several ways to connect electronic components these days. If an adhesive was used, forget about it. If it was truly soldered, nothing can be easier! You can do it yourself (make sure to get a bulb vacuum for removing old solder and a modern soldering gun). It is so easy, in fact, that a authorized repair facility may do it for you for cheap! And you could always mail it to them, too.
Good Luck & God Speed dharvey4651.
similar problem?
My MDA will charge fine through the USB cable, but will not sync/connect -- it's not even appearing in Device Manager.
Does anyone know if this is definitely a hardware issue, presumably involving the USB port?
Thanks in advance,
Will Stewart
it is possible, your USB cable has problem or try another PC.
If you still cannot fix, donate to me ...
In the middle of disassembling my Legend to replace a bad digitizer, I broke the ribbon cable connecting the power button to the PCB. I haven't reassembled it yet, but I can't see how it's going to work.

EDIT:
It seems this is the piece I need to replace.

Anyone know where I could go about finding one of these? The part number turns up nothing on Google.
I would find a service center and ask there, or I would solder it , it's just two wires....
But be sure you purchase a part with the ribbon cable on it, what I've seen it didn't look like it was there...
Good luck...
Called HTC service center. Unfortunately they don't sell parts direct.
I thought about soldering it, however the ribbon broke so close to the base that I am not sure I would be able to get access to the conductor.
Anyone have a trashed Legend that I could buy for parts?
