physical problem ... audio cuttoff with slider...

I dont know if anyone opend their wizard up.... mine is the tmobile mda..
the earpeice does not work when the slider is closed... or halfway...
the keyboard has to be slid completly open for any sound to be heard...
i know its a loose connection somewhere in the slide.... anyone know how to fix it?...
just started happening a few hours ago.
and now neither works... only works in speakerphone... wth is going on
It sounds as if your rigid flex cable is kicking it,
However your phone speaker could just be loose. It is affixed to the front plate and not the Rigid flex board.
I would try to troubleshoot with a dissassembly.
if the main ribbon cable is torn you should replace the rigid flex board. If your speaker is loose or broken You can look on XDA to see if someone is selling one.
ok.. i just read the service manual on how to dissassemble the wizard...
i just want to get a few things straight...
the rigid flex board is the board for the keyboard right?...
ribbon cable is that big thick silver ribbon right?...
if said cable is torn... i have to replace the entire rigid flex board? or can i just replace the ribbon cable instead?
if the speaker is loose... all i would have to do is tighten it... if it is broken .. all i have to do is replace it right?...
------
im sure the speaker isnt broken.... because it was working when the slider was slid open... and not working when it was closed.

Hi there bigjoe,
where did you find the service manual for the Wizard? I have audio problems myself (the mic and speaker just died, i can´t hear anything and the caller can´t hear anything, but the damn thing rings nonetheless!) and my warranty is up. So I would like to take a peek inside!

Ok, Here are the answers in order.
The rigid flex board is the board you see in the top portion of the wizard (where the screen and buttons are housed.)
The master ribbon cable is the big thick silver one yes.
I would replace the board it could just as well cause problems.(it's not too expensive)
If it is loose re-seat it in it's place. If broken replace it.

Have your first tried hard reset?
It sound as if your master cable is or rigid flex board going, but it could simply be your speaker and mic.

Touch screen ribbon cable connection

Hi, I have G1 with touch screen not working. On the back of the LCD, the small clip down connector for touch screen ribbon cable doesn't seem to grip tight. Even when closed, cable can be pulled from connector quite easily. Any suggestions please?

[Q] Broke ribbon for keypad

So tonight I was replacing a broken digitizer for my HD2, it was anything but easy, but it wasn't as bad as I was expecting. Anyways, in the middle of reassembling, I hit the point where I need to reconnect the keypad. I was fighting with it for a good 10 minutes trying to get it connected. I grabbed a small flathead screwdriver to push the ribbon while my other hand guided the ribbon into the connector. In the process I broke the ribbon cable.
Of course, for the good of the phone, I've ordered up a new keypad. My question is, is there anything I can do in the interim? Can one say, line up the contacts on the ribbon and electrical tape it together? Or anything else?
Man just wait for the replacement keypad. Cause as thin and delicate as the ribbons are you will probably do more damage than good to the ribbon. I mean even if you got the ribbon aligned and tapped bake together. One you probably will not get a good connection between the two pieces of ribbon, and two the little copper strips are so thin you will probably cause micro cracks in them while you are fiddling with the two half's of the ribbon.

[Q] SM-N900W8 Compatibility for Hardware

Trying to find an LCD/Digitizer with Frame for my phone. I can't seem to clear up whether it matters what model I look at for parts.
Looking at a bundle of parts that include LCD Screen, Digitizer Touch Screen, Front Housing, Front Facing Camera, Earphone Jack with Ear Speaker Flex Cable Ribbon, Charging Port Flex Cable Ribbon, Signal Wire Vibrating Motor and Power Button Flex Cable Ribbon.
All of these are for the N9005.
Does anyone know if these will work with the Canadian model? Alternatively I could just get the LCD/Digitizer with housing for the same model, or any US model.
nuttin?
