My dopod 838pro has this no gsm problem more than two months. I see there is no solution apart from sending it for repair. I'm from Brunei and there is just no expertise here to deal with the problem. Can anyone give me an or name me a shop where I can get my dopod fixed ? Brunei is neighbour to Singapore,Malaysia and Indonesia. Heck I'd even send this to UK if it's the only place I could get it repaired. Please help. Thanks
My Hermes device too, No GSM. I'm wondering is there anyone in XDA-Dev would be able to help this out?
Cheapest thing to do is buy another Hermes off ebay. Either swap Mainboards or better yet, get a fully functioning one. Would be cheaper than getting fixed as they just replace the mainboard, Most places will just try to get you to upgrade.
Could also be the antenna's bung too. At least if you get a spare you have spare parts...
Cheers...

Hello all,
Just ordered my Exec . Already got an XDA2s on contract.
I dont want to use the new number it will come with, so can I just put my old sim into the Exec and all will be fine???? :?: :?: :?:
Cheers

Hi
Of course.
If it's not sim-locked.
If you purchased it from the same provider that your old number, you won't have any trouble for sure.
If not, then you may need to unlock it (but not for sure).
Haha, they let you order it?
Was that online?
We are having a HUGE debate over wether any will ship out.
O2 still dont actualy have them on the system for sale when you phone.
it should work , But u wont b able to use the 3G connection because the simcard that comes with the XDA exec is a umts (3G) and the one from the XDA2s is a gsm sim.
Does anyone have any unlocking Software, as i bought mine through 02 but want to stick my Orange 3G sim in it, as i can not wait any longer for Orange to get of their Arses and release it.
Thanks
Brian
yeah they let me order it.....I did it online, but when I spoke to them they offered to order it over the phone.
Apparently (and I really dont believe this) they have a load coming in tomorrow and it will be with me monday............we shall see......
Hi,
Has anyone ever dealt with these people? I have been trying now for 2 days to get hold of them to get my JJ repaired.
They arent answering Telephone, the phone number given in the message is hard to make out and every connetation i have figured is a dead number. I faxed and emailed even and no reply.
So do I hand over my phone to someone i cant even get a hold of?!
Where else can i send my JJ for repair?
Cheers
Stot
What happend with you JJ?
www.htceurope.com <-- try them
I dropped it from about 2' and now its pretty dead.
ill try this number tomorrow thanks.

Ohhh..
My MDA Compact is much stronger.
I think it is not possible repair it by waranty.
Try to call to I-mate directly or speak with customer service at www.clubimate.com
I know expansys have had thiers repaired there - there must be a secret backdoor! I would ask I-mate if they have another number for them.
I realise that its not a warranty repair, but its probly cheaper than the £650 i paid for it. :lol:

Interesting.
So i called the HTC service center. And they were happy to take it for repair until i mentioned it was an I-Mate.
Aparently the motherboard in the different devices are different and they cant touch them. :evil:
Back to the drawing board.. Maybe id be best off sending it to spain or something.

Hi,
Where can I get spare parts for the Wizard/ MDA Vario?
Specifically a new battery cover. I have dropped my phone and the tabs have bust off the cover.
Tried the net, can't find anything.
HELP!!!!
Cheers,
Steve.
Buy a dummy !!!
Hi,
My solution to a similar problem was to purchase a dummy wizard in ebay.
The battery cover is fixed with tape. You can extract it easily with a knife without damaging it.
Regards.

htc-europe and htc-america sell spare parts. use the contact option on either website. i bought a cover for gbp 10
Well, I tried HTC UK and they told me they can't sell parts to me as my phone is badged and supplied with T-Mobile, so I have to go to them for parts.
Tried T-mobile who said it wasn't down to them as I took the contract out through an Internet company called Mobile Fun, and to try them for the parts.
Rang Mobile Fun and after being on the phone listening to crap music for 15 mins(!) in a supposed queue, they advise me to try Ebay!!!!!!
So does anyone else have any ideas or could someone who is allowed to buy parts from HTC get me one, and I will reimburse their costs and postage??
Thanks,
Steve.
My second hand Qtek 9100 has a problem today... the screen shows nothing but a blank white, the phone still working tho just can't see anything on the screen. ... have to get it repaired. I am living in Vancouver, Canada and no local store can help me repair that.. Does anybody here know a repair service provider in North America? Thanks a lot!
I am having the same problem
Hi there:
I am also from Vancouver and I am having the same problem. I am waiting to hear back from Cingular wireless who is directing me to HTC to see where I can send my Cingular 8125 for repair.
Did you try contacting your Phone/service provider? If your phone is less than a year old, they are suppose to fix it for free.
Beside that you can try http://pocketpctechs.com/main~unit~Qtek_9100-513~area~repairs~action~updateunit.htm
They are located in California.
Hello, I have a T-Mobile MDA Compact II with WM5 which worked fine for quite some time. A few days back the device suddenly switched off during navigation (don't think it was the battery) and after switching it on again it told me that the sim card is not inserted or invalid.
Help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & cu

Try pressing the sim card a little. Maybe put something between the sim card and the battery. See if it helps.
hello vlodeck,
thanks for the suggestion.... I've tried it but with no luck. I'm still getting 'sim card is missing' when tuning on the phone :-(

wf
hard reset or just go repair the phone
I have the same problem

Have you taken yours to a phone repair shop?
also i purchased mine from eBay, and found out that it is only 4 months old so i might try to track the warranty down from T-Mobile if i can, if not i might take mine to the phone repair shop.

Since the case of the broken one was like brand new i baught another mda compact II from ebay and changed the main boards over, now it works perfectly (cross fingers, touch wood), the shop told me that it was complicated to take the main board out and change it, so here is me, a laptop and pc tech, i took it apart and had it back together within 15 mins and iv never touched a pda before, so quite happy with myself anyway i hope this mainboard doesnt break like the other, thanks.
