Hi
First i would say that my english is not so good
But the problem i have is that my hermes/tytn is wery loose in the slide mekanism.
Is there a way to get it tighter?
Any help would be nice!
Thank's
If you get a bit of thick sticky tape and put it over the groves. Slice it down the middle of each grove and that should help keep it a bit tighter.
There is a tutorial here somewhere.
aha, almost like the Nokia N95 fix then
Thank's for fast reply!

There is only one way to truly fix this problem and that is to correct the defect in the sliders/runners:

This has been discussed here in other threads and the above fix has been done with reported success (including me) and is also contained in the Hermes wiki.
Here's one of the threads:

NB: Does require dismantling and is warranty voiding.

Can someone tell me how to take apart (or point me to a site that does) the Magician? I've got a buddy who anodizes paintball guns, and I thought it would be kinda cool to have the aluminum housing of my magician anodized... but I can't figure out how to get it open. I undid the two screws, but that didn't seem to loosen anything, and I'm afraid to use too much force prying on things (for obvious reasons :? ). Any help would be appreciated.
Here you are

Very helpful. Thanks!

I'd love one myself. I've always accumulated one for every phone, pda, and laptop I've ever had. Rarely needed them, but emergencies always seem to happen when time is a critical issue.
Talking of which, is there any value in broken ipaq's?
would come in handy...
there're some image , hope it help

Interesting pics!
Do you have chipset references or any specific hardware details?
Can you make high quality pictures of the boards where the chipsets can bee zoomed?
Thanks!
Anyone? Got to be one out there...

Hi there, im new & loving this place & my tytn.
My stylus has just developed a loose problem so bad that it can easily fall out?
I see lots of solutions around for the wizard, is it not common with the hermes?
One solution was the paper in the holes near the battery but unlike the wizard, the hernes are filled. Apologies if this has been answered but all i really got with the search related to the wizard. I dont want to dismantle.
Thank you for any suggestions you may have.
Pete.

You only need remove the back cover. Be careful replacing the back cover to align the macro arm of the camera.

Once again Mike thank you. Im amazed at this phone & was lucky to spot grade B stock on ebay selling for only 65 pounds, only thing missing was the box & extras but phone condition is almost new.
Well, I'm about to buy a HTC HD2 (the t-mobile version) to repair it, (like a hobby thing), anyway, the phone seems to have the LCD broken, the digitizer seems ok (but as far as I know they aren't expensives, like U$S 15), So here are the questions:
I want to buy the LCD replacement, but I'm not sure which one (I know I have to buy the T-mobile version) but some seems to require soldering a connector, and others don't, also do I need special tools for opening the cellphone? Is there any guide on the internet that you could recommend me? and how much should I paid for the Lcd? any other advice? Thanks!
edit: I forgot the [Q] on the title.. can't edit it, sry I'm new
you can probably open it without using special tools, altough you will need T9 screw drive if im correct, here's a video of official assembly/disassembly video leaked by HTC. pocketnow[dot]com/hardware-1/official-htc-hd2-disassembly-assembly-training-videos-leaked
LCD and digitizer is glued together, theres a video there showing how to take it apart i think.
Good Luck!

Well, thanks for the warm welcome! and about the price to pay for the screen + digitalizer? 80 U$S is alright? (if, it can be told) and thanks again for the info, in a few months I'll post some before and after screens
Oh, and by the way, I don't have a T-Mobile Sim card, Will I be able to unlock the phone? thanks.
