The situation was that I was standing with my phone out and my friend hits my arm and my phone dropped and hit the ground and my vibration no longer works. I've tried the Hard Reset and it didn't work. I'm thinking that the problem is a hardware issue, so if anyone can tell me how to fix it, I would be really appreciative.
Thanks!
You dropped it...there is a good chance of "it's borked". There is no magic fix for a dropped and busted phone--either open it up and look, or get a new one.

Or live without the vibration not a deal breaker for me. Better than having to go buy a new one
Yeah if the phone still works forget the vibration. Its not that important

open it up and check the cables by the vibration unit.
I'm not sure exactly where its at but you should see it somewhere.
I would guess there a little detachable cable that popped loose when it was dropped.
Taken apart every cell phone i've had and I've noticed they've have all had a detachable cable connected to the vibrator.
I'd be surprised if it required any soldering at all.
Refer to some pictures posted in the "Correct Hardware GPS Fix" thread in the general forum.
It has some pics of the vibrant disassembled and you may be able to locate the vibrator from that.
The phone is surprisingly simple to take apart. The thread also tells you how to do it.

I'm in the same boat as the OP--thanks. I'll try this.
OP, did you try the recommendations? did they fix your vibration issue?
I'm in the same situation rn and mom said me to just try that hard reset but you tried it so yeah it won't work so ig that I'll just try to open it as that dude said and I hope that it will work,!

Hi, I'm the proud owner of an ELF(in). I bought it on ebay very cheap because it was in bootloader mode. Thanks to the gold card method I've been using it with no problems at all.
Yesterday I bought another one (ELF), it hangs after 3-5 seconds of power on (bootloader, loading windows, etc). Sometimes the screen just shuts off, sometimes everyting becames green. So, I decided to put it in the refrigerator and see what happens. After 15 minutes I powered it up and it works! I take it out and hangs almost immediately. Is this just a faulty unit? No hope for it? (I don't want to carry my refrigerator everywhere).
If someone has any ideas, I'm listening.
Thanks!
hahaha, i love this post. sorry i'm not able to offer too much help but I had to comment. I know my parents used to freeze batteries to make em last longer. Tried a different one?
Well yeah, I tried soft reset, hard reset, the battery from my working Elfin, etc.
Try the microwave... for two minutes?
There already was a thread about this problem (maybe you bought it) and already then my answer was to take the device apart clean all the dust and dirt inside and give it another shot. I had a nokia with the same problem and when i opened it it was full with dust and fibres from my pants everytime whe put it in our pants there comes a bit of dirt in it and because of the rubbing it acumulates inside the device and it enters in protection-mode (nice word????) because of overheating ate least that was the explanation they gave me when i contacted nokia at the time.........You can't loose anything by trying

I already cleaned up, and still the same. It's clearly an overheating problem, it's been in the refrigerator for a couple of hours and works like a charm. Not very useful though as it's no longer a "portable device"!

Is there not a small watch size battery in these devices - Perhaps it needs replacing?
See picture I included at the bottom of the device. I got this picture from the complete disasembly guide in the elf forum.
I knew about people who used the refrigerator to overclock their PCs, but this thing you're doing is amazing!

Any more ideas on how to fix this Elf?
try booting into windows and looking at the cpu speed, if it is normal lower it to the minimum and see if it hangs then.
eitherway, u must try reflashing everypiece of firmware, especially the radio firmware before giving up. (yeah, u might have to put ur laptop in the fridge with the phone )
Try lowering the clock speed with and Overclocking tool. Homescreen ++ gives u temp report. With that u can know if the temp is the real problem.
Liquid Nitrogen is the answer
Fix a fan on it
Haha, how about fixing a computer fan at the back of the pocket pc, it needs cooling.
Maybe the temperature sensor of the ppc has been spoilt, reporting the wrong data to the brain, thus the ppc restarts.
Ok, finally my Elf is working with no crashes at all outside the fridge! I found the solution in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=476152.
Thanks to Firestarter42 for the tip and okti for the mini-tutorial. I think that info should be in Elf's Wiki page.
However! I've got another problem... I've attached a screenshot. Any ideas?
I'm only sharing this to give those with intermittent 3G data to improve theirs as well since I had such good success with it. I know it's strange, and if you don't have any issues with your 3G signal quality than there is no purpose in trying this.
To those of you who have done the hardware GPS fix, this is very similar.
There is another metal tab on the opposite side of the phone, it looks exactly like the one you bend up for the GPS fix.
I was having very spotty and slow 3G covereage, so was my fiance. It would just hang when trying to load websites or using the XDA app. The download arrow would take FOREVER before finally lighting up and going somewhere.
So I opened the phones and bent up that other metal tab, assuming it is the antenna for the phone. I have found out, apparently, it is the WiFi contact. But strangely enough, this has had a huge impact on my 3G consistency.
DarkSandz93 said he noticed two more tabs near the bottom of the phone. You might also bend those a bit to make a better contact. I don't have any pictures of them but With some looking you should find them. I can confirm this fix works without bending the ones on the bottom, but it Wouldn't hurt to try as it will only improve the weak contacts.
When I put the phone back together me and my Fiance's phone both have great consistent 3G and reception went up a bar or two.
I've been testing this for two days and it has definitely helped!
***PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN BENDING UP THE TAB, IT MAY BE FRAGILE*** Take it slow, Its almost flat when you start but you need to bend it up a bit to make a good contact with the antenna.
I'm not responsible for any damage you do to your phone.
Thank you AndroidMonkey for the pic.
Labeled is both the GPS on the left and the Antenna on the right. The one on the right in the one I bent up slightly to improve the contact and get better signal.

Here is a video of my phone browsing AFTER the mod was performed. Before I could barely surf at all, it would take around 5 minutes to load ANY web page. The download arrow would hardly ever light up. These pages are not cached and are using my 3G connection.
I just want to clarify this fix did not improve my actual download speed (kb/s), but made my connection more reliable and steady. Fixed the hanging and having to reload constantly to try and get a connection.
Also, thank you Plato56, who came up with the original Hardware GPS Fix. I would not have ever tried this if it wasn't for KWKSLVR's thread.
UPDATED: I've tried this in many different areas now and it works great. No more waiting on the download arrow to light up.. kicks on and stays on

I Thought that was the wifi contact and the cell antenna was on the bottom of the phone.
In any case.. I'll prolly give this a shot since the GPS fix worked so well for me. Instead of trying to bend it up though I think Ill follow the lead of some people in the GPS thread and place a small piece of rubberband under the contact. Dont wana have to solder due to breaking the contract a second time lol.
You might be right. I wasn't 100 percent sure it was the antenna. But In any case it definitely improved my signal quality on two seperate phones.
Please let me know if this works for you!

Thanks for sharing, I'll post the option of bending the other tabs in the OP. Doesn't hurt to try.
yea sounds good but don't forget to mention in big giant bold letters to take EXTREME caution so as not to snap any of the connections off, don't want anyone coming back here to ***** at everyone because they made a stupid mistake.

Haha, good point. OP updated.
man i want to try this because i don't have 3g at my place when i'm holding the phone on the bottom. I'm just scared, really scared.
Alright I just tried the hardware fix and I can report that it has not improved my 3g connection dramatically. I'm not sure if I'm under placebo effect but I think it is helping a tiny bit with keeping the connection strong; could be wrong. Report back after some more testing.
I just want to clarify this fix did not improve my actual speed, but made my connection more reliable and steady. before I could barely browse, now i can very consistently go from page to page with no hanging or having to reload many times.
yupp...so the unthinkable ,while having a very heated discussion with girlfriend on instant messenger via computer ,i broke the little copper contact ,,,,
if your as dumb as me (argueing with girlfriend )while bending the little tabs, all hope is not lost i stripped some copper wire out of a phone cord and looped it through the little hole where the copper is attached to the phone twisted it together tight snapped the phone together and did some intense browsing ,seems to be working great
Unless you're using wifi this shouldnt do anything. The tab you are bending is used for wifi only. The tab that is used for cellular is on the bottom.
I tried this, and now my phone is out of commission. Might be a coincidence since I have been doing some modem changes but any thoughts on the matter would be appreciated. I posted in the Vibrant Q&A forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=949089
If everything is in place inside the phone and its just the screen you can get it into odin (Plug in USB and hold volume buttons while booting.) and then flash back to stock and warranty the thing. You dont even need to see the screen to do it, your computer should tell you if the phone is connected.
My instructions suck, try these
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848737
I did this too sometime last month and saw an improvement. I decided to take it a step farther like the a couple guys did in the GPS thread did. All 4 of the contacts now have a small drop of solder on them, filed down to the right height, and I am seeing improvements across the board (nothing dramatic, but more of consistency). I need to file 1 down just a hair more though.
Hello all,
My X10 has a few strange problems regarding freezes and reboots, and also problems with USB connections.
When my I applie pressure to my phone, it reboots. This also happens when I slightly bend my phone. It's a strange problem and I think (almost know for sure) it's hardware related because it happens in two custom roms (freexperia beta 4 by Zdzihu, and Achotjan_Froyo_2.2.1) and also in xrecovery.
The other problem I have has to do with my USB connection.
When i connect my phone to my pc. there is no notification and it doesn't connect to my PC. in contrast to other x10's that have USB connection problems (I've searched other threads) charging is still completely normal.
That's why I think the USB connection is software related
I was wondering if somebody has something usefull to say about either one of the issues, thats why I'm posting.
So if anyone has any idea feel free to post
...Life sucks?.... new phone maybe?

I'm not really bending my phone but "trying to bend it"or pressure lets it reboot. this would indeed be not really much of a problem, just don't bend or apply pressure. The problem however is that when I put it in my pocket, the same kind of forces (bending, pressure) will work on it and it'll reboot. this is pretty annoying because each time you'll get your phone out of your pocket it's rebooted or it still hangs.

Well yes it has, a car drove over it once but that's was more then a year ago, and it's fallen quite hard sometimes. I've opened it up however, and nothing is visible wrong (loose connections etc.)

and probably not in a visible to the naked eye way.
If you want to hold on to the phone, maybe buy a hard case,
that will keep the pressure to minimum while in your pocket!
Probably a loose capacitor or resistor...
I'll agree with My_Immortal on that one. A hard case might help you in you situtation. But mate let me say this. From the injuries that your x10 has been through it's a miracle it still works!

Well yes indeed I could've said this.
But why I haven't is because it happened more than a year before these problems started. the bending, pressure problem started quite suddenly out of nowhere, and thus might not be related
(I also think the car didn't do that much damage, my phone lay flat on the road, and the car drove pretty fast (around 50 kph) so the car was actually on the phone for a very short time: less than 9 micro seconds .)
I've started this thread mainly because I thought maybe someone had heard about these kind of problems before and knew something about it.

I understand that the car incident was a year ago,
but in my opinion, it's very hard NOT to relate it with your issues.
Of course, there is always the possibility that it has nothing to do with them,

Hey! I just replaced a broken screen and it went quite well, aside from the fact that my mic is not really working as it should anymore (it sounds like I am really far away whenever I speak). After the reassembly, I noticed one plastic piece which for the life of me I cannot find a suitable place for. Does anyone know where it is supposed to go?
I've never had that piece loose after replacing my screen (I've gone through 4!!).
The microphone problem seems to be a common problem with screen replacements (judging by xda, other forums and product reviews). I don't know a fix for that, but wanted to let you know it seems to be everyone

Edit: " end of my woes.
I had the same thing as adam in the end. its the little orange silicon bit that shields the microphone. it fits into the fornt cover near the microphone hole. I accidentally threw it away with the old cover and then had the problem. I had to buy a complete new casing in the edn but it is working fine now.

Found this in another thread, but... Hmmm, I know of the three orange parts and I have taken good care of them. None of those are clowe to the mic though, or perhaps I am mixing up the mic with somethng else? Oh well, there was somethng else about a rubber part behind the display, perhaps I'll just stick my rubber thingie in there. Yup.

Thank you! I will open it up again tonight and see if I can fix it. Apparently I also managed to cause some problem with the headset since the right earpiece no longer works. Only the left one... Seems like i really shouldnt do these kinds of repair work myself.
Edit: i think I used too much glue a the bottom while fastening the screen and that is why the mic is not working as it should. Just putting it here so others might take t ny consideration if they see this post. Guess the only way to fixit is to buy a new front.
I repaired my phone a week or so ago and ever since, my GPS won't work. I obey broke something but don't know what to look for or do. I can say that the motherboard got a small Crack up by the top speaker somewhere. That likely is the cause of this and I'm probably SOL, but maybe someone has some insight or good ideas.
Thanks!
My guess is maybe the crack goes across part of the antenna for the GPS. Not sure though I haven't pulled this phone apart so I don't know where the antenna is. Worth a shot to look and see if you can solder a jumper.

Thanks for the thoughts. I'm trying to decide if it is worth the risk and hassle of opening the phone back up if this isn't even related. I'd love to learn where on the phone the GPS is (Is it a module?, an antenna? something else?)

Did you ever find a solution to this? or can you tell me where the board cracked? ill be the guinea pig trying to fix mine if i know where to look.
Or has anyone else ever been able to identify the GPS hardware inside the phone?
Mine came back from motocare with the GPS broken. I sent it in mint but with a defective camera. Been like that for months. Yesterday I broke the screen, which I just changed. Still no GPS. I could not find anything GPS related, antenna, cables, etc.
I must say these phones are a pleasure to fix. Just tape and 21 screws.. all the same size except one.
