Tope. How you dey?

Wizard Service Manual for anyone who may want it.

Here is the English version of the Wizard Service Manual. Complete disassembly and re-assemby instructions included. By far the most comprehensive manual you will find for your Wizard.

I like to give back to the community that helped me so much when I was getting started. I do what I can whether it be something simple like providing the Wizard Service Manual or something more difficult like cooking, I do what I can...

anyone have a service manual to disassemble dopod 838? I know that inside it's htc wizard, but when I see the manual it seems that the placement of screws and everything is rather different.

Replacement Kaiser Keyboard?

Does anyone know where I can purchase a new keyboard for my Kaiser ?

NEVERMIND I FOUND IT!
BUT... I don't know how to install it if I buy it. Can anyone help ?

Does anyone know where I can find a tutorial of the Kaiser Keyboard Installation

Uh, may i know what you found?

I think he means he found the Kaiser keyboard.
And if you did can you please tell me where? a couple of buttons on my tilt is messed up so its good to have a backup .

you can go to htclcd.com and get the disasembly tutorials from there..after you take it apart..its pretty easy to replace the keyboard..just follow the instructions to take it apart

cnn.cn for parts and check the wiki for disassembly guide.
Watch out for cnn.cn though.. my brother ordered the black casing for his n82 which arrived very quickly. During installation he broke his LCD so he ordered one from cnn.cn. The next day a package arrived but it was torn open with no LCD in it. So he reported it to cnn.cn which asked him to report it to UPS which he did. UPS refunded cnn.cn the $60+ for the LCD and no cnn.cn is telling UPS that he never ordered an LCD from them.
So basicly UPS paid cnn.cn back for the lcd and now they won't send him one. He already reversed the transaction to them so he got his money back but they ripped off UPS and got $60+ for nothing...

is there a more current place to buy a keyboard?
the vendor listed does not show them on their web site. My 'v' key and 'b' key are sluggish as far as responsiveness.

the laziest way to change yer keyboard is to get a bluetooth one, lmao

Where you found it?

Any chance one of you folks that replaced a keyboard would be willing to send me a single key? (The F key is missing on my keyboard.. I can still press the hole under it, but would be nice to put a key-top back in the gap)
PM me if anyone might be able to help. will donate to your beer fund.

I found it http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~u...rs-htc+kaiser+parts+only~item~HTC-T2IKB01.htm

What about the Tilt keyboard? That one has the Kaiser special characters.

try a keyboard from www.gsm4world.com
Hi,
You don't want to buy this one from pocketpctechs. The inner keyboard alone would not fit. You need the outer keyboard. See an extended discussion of how to install keyboard from page 12 onwards in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337102
(keyboard issues are handled from Page 12 onwards)
I purchased one of such whole keyboards from (http://www.gsm4world.us/shop/tytn-p4550-keyboard-flex-p-1433.html) and installed it myself, twice.
You can use the dismantling guide on the wikki here to guide you. There is also a service manual here - http://e5hopa.bay.livefilestore.com..._TILT_8925_KAISER SERVICE MANUAL.pdf?download - to help you dismantle the Kaiser.
Once you dismantle the Kaiser, you will know how to replace the keypad - infact removing the keypad is part of the process, hence you just insert and screw on the new one.
good luck - MN

Orange TOUCH 3 G. A few issues... Comments please.

Just had my HTC Touch 3G on the UK orange network for a few days and have been trying to set it up for my personal tastes etc...
The Orange UNIQUE function, is there a way to just have WiFi on or off, not the hybrid thing that orange seem to want you to use. On my previous HTC phone , a Titan, I just stopped GPRS connectivity and used WiFi but with the UNIQUE setup it doesn't seem possible to do this..
The contacts list, is there anyway to show the list with first name FIRST... I have tried to find a option in the setup menus but have not managed it yet..
Most if my contacts are on first name terms.. I know to look for Joe, Fred or Sally but trying to remember the last name or if I just saved as Joe @Garage etc is a pain for me...
Strange but if I view a individual contact, it appears in the correct order, First name first, last name last etc...
Any thoughts, help etc would be appreciated on a otherwise (so far anyway !) very good device..
Thanks Phil-w

The unique thing is bobbins, I contacted orange about it and the lady in customer services basically admitted that it meant I wouldn't be able to use wifi for normal data connections! So I took the plunge and flashed it to standard HTC ROM, all is well now! I would recommend you do the same!

Yeah as jmrenshaw said just flash your phone with htc rom.Those operator roms are blocking many things on the phone.Good luck.

Where can I get the standard ROM from HTC
Hi everyone,
I'm having a nightmare of a time with Orange's changes to the phone. I want to have the phone as it would be if I bought it offline. Please help me with this.
I assume I need to flash the ROM to the standard ROM but where do I get a hold of this and how do I flash the ROM? And would I be able to get back to Orange's setup in case need to warranty purposes?
Any help would be appreaciated.

What you can do is: put first names in "File as" field, then the contact list will display first names. "Files as" will default to last name.

Yes I have seen the thread you suggest, so many thanks however, as I say in my seperate thread - it is not the "reading" of the tutorial but it is the actual carrying out of the advice because of my physical disabilities.

I've managed to do what you want to do by using one of the dumps posted on the forum here and converting that into a ROM and then flashing the phone with that ROM. Its quite straight forward but I guess you're asking if someone can do that for you. Where abouts are you based?

Yes thanks, I am asking if someone will do it for me - sorry if I was vague but get a bit embarrassed! I have to use my mouth to type so using a "Touch" phone is great but when it comes to more intricate and complicated tasks, I am afraid it gets too difficult. I will be happy to pay of course - postage as well as paying for the job to be done. I just want to get rid of the Orange branded software as I find their software is too "fidly" and I also find that normal access to wifi is easier for me when not using Orange's silly "Unique Manager".
I am based in the UK.
EDIT - NOW SORTED - THANKYOU

Thanks Azahidi,
Slowly going through all the cantacts entries, pity there is no GLOBAL way to change the name order. (Unless I have missed it !!)

Hi Ziffos,
I didn't quite understand the bit at the end 'EDIT - NOW SORTED - THANKYOU'. Does this mean that you've managed to get your phone flashed? If you have then great! If not then I might be able to do it for you. Let me know.

Any help apreciated????
Hello
I have just read all the posts here about the Unique Manager and I completely agree. It is a nightmare, Orange UK have wrecked this phone. I have just got my Mrs. a contract on this phone as I intend to set up sat nav on it for her and I have the touch HD, so off the back of your comments I am looking to flash it.
It is running V1.71 and from reading the thrads I have to revert it back to V1.41, how easy did you find it to debrand it as it appears many people have had problems and I am worried about rendering the phone useless!!!!
I have never done anything like this before but I do understand the instructions as they are very indepth, but I am worried that if any exceptions or problems present themselves I won't be able to deal with it.
How straight forward is this process?
Any help is very much appreciated.

It was a long process but worth it!
Hi there,
I've flashed my phone about 2 weeks ago now and am having a much better experience. Actually I really love the phone now so my advice would be to go for it and flash it. I didn't actually read too many of the comments, I just followed the instructions and did it. Maybe just as well as I might have been put off.
Anyway the process was very long winded as I had to take someone's raw dump and then convert that into a ROM and then flash the phone with it. Took quite a long time but I definitely feel that it was worth it. I don't know how risky it is so can't really advise you on that.
I can send you the ROM file that I did generate if you want do it. I hope it goes as smoothly as it did for me if you do decide to go ahead with it.

There hardly is any branding. A startup-picture and some web favourites inside the browser that you can delete, maybe a provider-specific app. No hardware branding at all.
But if you mean the SIM lock to one provider than that's what is discussed in this thread.

I know the difference between a software/hardware branding and a sim unlock. I was specially talking about the provider specific startup picture. Everything else is easy removable Any way to remove that one ?

Has anyone tested this? I tried but software doesn't load properly.
Or is it illegal? I have no idea as i've never done anykind of unlocking/modding before.

That was hardware based tool. You need a SPT Box (which cost arround 200EUR).
Paid unlock details removed - refer to the forum rules please.

I am in a similar situation with a phone locked to Three (in the UK).
I have tried SPT but it won't load with a "Smart card resource manager is not running" error.
The link in the second post no longer goes to anywhere.
To anyone who has the phone unlocked: how did you get it done?

Yes, the link in first post is down :-/
it would be nice if somebody can post this unlocking method.

New link here:
http://www.modaco.com/content/ebay-auctions/323315/unlock-your-omnia7-galaxy-tab-here/

got the unlock code whithin 5 minutes for 20€, SFR french omnia, fast easy..

HELP!
I just bought OMNIA 7 at Three store in UK, but noone in London knows how to unlock it... ;-(
I tried links posted in earlier posts but they're all dead.
Can anyone help me please?

I have unlocked mine via this Ebay seller http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Unlock-Samsung-Focus-i917-Omnia7-Galaxy-Tab-by-CODE_W0QQitemZ140482107888QQihZ004QQcategoryZ42428QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ht_1960wt_881. Ordered late Friday evening, got code following morning.

www.TSAR3000.com
Has any one tried flashing the samsung omnia 7 with device image available.
Please share your experience.

Oh no.... I also bought an Omnia 7 with 3 Austria lock. Can someone plz tell me how I can can unlock it. It s important i have the phone now but I can´t phone or sms with it, that sucks... Is that Ebay Link only for T-Mobile and At&T ? But in the description is sayed that it s for all european carriers ? So can i unlock my 3 Austria phone with this Ebay Link ? Are t-Mobile an AT&T only Examples ?
Thx for your help

I think you will be OK. Reading some of the feedback it would appear that 3 ,Orange and T-Mobile phones can all be unlocked.Why not send him a message and ask him specifically about 3 Austria.

I used this bay seller and i got the code back the same day and it worked fine.
My only problem now is that i can't get the internet to work? Calling and messaging is fine. I understand that MMS doesnt work but i cant open an explorer page or anything. I tried some different APN setting but still no luck.
Does anyone have any tips?
I unlocked my phone from t-mobile EU and trying to use UK Vodafone.
Thanks!
I found my own solution! If anyone else need them, the APN settings for Vodafone are..
APN: internet
Username: Web
Password: Web
