hi there, does anyone knows were to get a new screen on the web for the jasjar?
Nigh on impossible at the moment. The device is so new that there are very few spares. Best bet is to send it to HTC and pay for them to fix it.
i need an english keyboard from a dummy MDA Pro . i'll pay for it.
thanks
If you will disassemble the Universal, please post the pictures. What LCD do you have ?
Is it Sony ACX526AKM ?
Thinking of getting one of them, which one is a better device? Since both of there are basically the same device with different housing, is it possible for me to flash atom's ROM to rw6828 and vice versa just like those prophet like dopod 818pro, imate jamin and qdek s200?
One more question, do I really need 192mb ROM in atom exec or 128mb in atom is sufficient enough?
Get the HP my friend, the Atom and Atom Exec have faulty LCD screens. I know because I have had 3 Atoms and 2 Exec's replaced and the devices still squeal like a mosquito. O2 is horrible to deal with each time the device needs to be sent away you can expect it to be gone for at the very least a month and they do not give extended warranty for the time spent at the service centre.
Hi homer285, thanks for your reply, just curious, if there is LCD problem in atom/exec then HP should suffer the same since they are sharing the same device except for the housing and design. Anyway, I am testing the HP now, so far so good except for the wifi range and battery life...

Not necassarily true, I am yet to hear the HP has this problem and I think you'll find there's more than just housing and design difference.
Borrow one unit rw6828 back for testing, the wifi reception not very good, I have Apple Airport Express in my study room next to my bedroom, the signal only one bar where my 4 yrs old Toshiba notebook has 4 bars. Battery life also not very good, having the phone in standby mode for about 6 hours (played 2 songs, make and received 3-4 short phone calls), the battery drain from 100% to 49%. Does Atom did the same?
O2 Atom or HP 6828 (I've found something better!)
Hi All,
After having the O2 Atom for 3 weeks, I've decided to sell it off. I hate to say this, I have been a firm supporter of O2 from the days of XDAII to the days of O2 Mini, but I am sad to say O2 Atom is the worst of the lot I have ever used. I don't think it can get any worse (hmm maybe I am wrong and it can get worse?!). Maybe all the good phones are by HTC and this real bad one is by Quatar (or is it spelt that way? Who cares, I'm never gonna buy any phone from that manufacturer again).
This is what I have found bad about the Atom:
1) Bad design of hardware buttons (both O2 & HP)
- Why would any manufacturer design a hardware that doesn't take advantage of the new OS?? WM5 was design with ease of use in mind with the introduction of the left/right hardware keys (much like the nokia h/keys).
- Imagine you get the latest OS but you still have to touch the screen to access those quick menus, is this dumb or what?!
2) FM Radio is almost useless (reception & design)
- Poor reception (my pocket radio gets better reception, but then again this is a PDA phone so what the heck ..)
- Poor design because you need to have the wired headset attached to it when you want to hear the radio!
3) Cheap Plastic Cover
- Reminds me of the USD2 cheap nokia cover made in china (both the HP & Atom) squeaks, both the top and bottom does not allign properly
- I personally feel that both the XDAII & Mini built is much better (feels more solid)
- For the price you are paying for the Atom Exec, we should be getting the state of the art carbon fibers casing.
After I have sold it off, I have moved on to the Dopod 838pro. Any regrets? Other than the steep price (hey it's only USD100 more that then Atom Exec..) & microSD, it's a dream phone!!
Specs:
- GSM 850/900/1800/1900, GPRS, EDGE, UMTS(3G), HSDPA(3.5G)
- 13 hardware keys (1 dedicated video call key)
- a side slide out keyboard (w smart backlight) & Real Wheel (not jog dail)
- 2M pixel camera
- 802.11g Wi-Fi (802.11b compatible)
- 128mb flash 64mb RAM
... I can't ask for more. So .. for those planning to get an Atom Exec ... I would strongly recommend you check out the 838 Pro or in some place it's called the TyTN, HTC hermes, O2 Trion, Qtek 9600, iMate JasJam etc ..

Hi,
Yesterday my Qtek 2020i's display broke.
Repairing will cost 200 EUR, this is too much if you can get one new for 350 EUR.
However, I found this display:
http://cgi.ebay.at/orginal-Display-...QQihZ012QQcategoryZ123195QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
It says, that it's also compatible with XDA 2i and MDA 2i but Qtek 2020i is not listed (only 2020).
Can I make sure that Qtek 2020i is the same as XDA 2i?
And, more important, the model number for the selled display is: 60H00022-00
I opened my Qtek but my model number is 60H00022-03 :-(
Does anybody know if that display will also work?
If not, I've a big problem!
Are there other solutions then?
Thank you very much in advance!
Niki
Qtek 2020i is the XDAIIi, yes.
If you are competent in DIY repair, try E-Bay for parts.
Keywords: Dopod 696 screen
The screen component is made up of 2 essential parts, the touch screen digitizer and the LCD screen.
Let hope not all of your two components are broken.
If the digitizer is cracked, the cost is rather low.
I have bought a MDA Compact 2 from ebay. The touchscreen was broken so I built in a new one. First i unlocked the sim lock and then I installed WM 6 with touch and flo. The problem is: When I turn on the phone it can't find any networks and the speaker is making weard noises. When i turn off the phone the loudspeaker is working again. Can anybody help me?
Sorry for my bad english
You probably made some mistakes down the road when you were putting the phone back together after the touchscreen replacement. Check if everything's plugged in correctly inside.
I have checked everything. The problem is that everything works perfect. Maybe I will sell this phone on ebay and buy a new one. Maybe i will buy a compact 3. Can I unlock there wifi or do i have to buy a xda orbit or an htc?
Thx for all replys
hey all... just hoping some of the veteran Prophet owners can help me out...
i have a Magician, who i love, but her USB connector is damaged and so she's become so difficult to charge... so i want to upgrade... now i bought a Wizard off ebay but never was able to use the keyboard as it doesn't work... that said, i like the phone, but can't get used to the lack of responsiveness... so would you advise me to sell my Magician and my Wizard, and get a wizard, or a Prophet? what will it be like for me upgrading from the Magician?
(this is also in the Wizard forum, so i can get a balanced answer)
