Charging port and headset port in Diamond
Guys
Are you all OK with the common port for BOTH
Charging & Headset
Dont you think this is a weak aspect of HTC as Diamond battery is so weak which necessitate charging it while using ur headset???!!!

help urgently needed

umm sry guys if i am screaming and with possible OT but its kinda urgent for me..
kk heres the story, i live in croatia in Europe.. i got my ppc cingular 8125 from ebay like 9 months ago and it was working fine... than one month ago the touchsreen would disalign, and than it went totally off... I sent it to the service here but they were unable to locate the proper error... they told they r quite sure the display controller went dead...
so, I am willing to send it in USA to a decent service... i got a friend in florida which could manage this, so I ask u plz if u know any decent service which could be able to fix this problem... and for cheapest price if possible, cos guys here told me a new screen would cost around 200$ which is too much (i think... since for few more hundres dollars i can get a new one)... so plz, can u suggest me any good service at florida or near there?
thx guys
hf&gl
ps- will there be any problem, since i modded ppc with that antenna aluminium foil + the speaker gum (the one which is stick on them) is missing? I had no guarantee when i got it from ebay, of course..
im not sure of the price but im pretty sure there's instructions somewhere explaining how to open up the wizard and replace the screen. It sounds like all you'll need is a new touchscreen, which i thought was under $100. That is of course if you're willing to do it yourself.
Im sorry i cant help, but im going to bump this just so someone who does know can help you.
yea, i thought the same... on ebay there r touchscreens for cpl of bucks... but what if the problem isnt in touchscreen? could it be maybe that the whole LCD+touchscreen is dead? I have to say i can't see any bad pixel on lcd display, he is workign fine... but what if...
any suggestions? could it really be that just the touchscreen is dead?

I know for the wizard there was a solutions with aluminum foil perhaps that works for you.
Don't know if the thread is still there, but i think someone knows about it
my kaiser has bad reception too!
I have an external gsm antenna that i bought for my SPV e100 and c500, used it a couple of times worked very well, but then orange stuck a antenna up a few roads away from me which sorted the problem, id have to see if it is the same fitment for the kaiser, i assume it is as they all seem to have the standard gsm antenna port in the kaiser its next to the gps one. Its still in the original bag it came in and it as new if you want to buy it off me... i paid £30 for it.... offers.... if your interested in it ill dig it out and test it on my kaiser.. let me know
*EDIT: After closer inspection, the antenna i have only fits the gps connection on the kaiser, it does improve the gps a hell of a lot but it does not fit the gsm connection, so ill withdraw my sale*

I am also interested in this given I live in a basement apt with 2 bars If lucky. Let me know if you find anything out outside of this thread!

Does anybody know what type of connector HTC uses for their handsets? I have a Vox and am looking to buy a pigtail so I can use my external antenna.
Some close up pictures of the connector would be very useful, thanks.

would this help? The t-mob signal in my hizouse is CRAP! there is a RO with A Voda radio that will work on my Vario...would this potentialy increase my signal
There's a close-up here.
Can anyone advise for sure what kind of connector this is? I've bought a 11dB antenna on ebay (believe it has an SMB connector), and need to find an adapter to try to connect it to my Kaiser.
I've checked the FCC report, Wikipedia, HTC, etc. but no joy.

Thats the GPS Connector. The phone Connector looks the same. But I gather it is not. I wish I could know for sure.
Thanks! I've read elsewhere that the GPS and Mobile connectors are the same on the TYTN II (at least, someone was able to use their GPS connector for both).
Still no joy on finding an adapter though.

anyone have spare htc battery!

even htc cant even supply me with a replacement battery for a htc touch dual 20 key device/neon 200/htc 850/ gave them a call referring me to expansys, which dont even have it , tried a few different countries and its bogus man, anyone have a spare one they dont use???
pdair.com has it.
thanks for the reply but they didnt have it! I was thinkin about making my own battery using another htc battery and connecting wires. If anyone know about doing this ! then yeah let us know
Really thats strange, their local office in the Philippines confirmed to me that it was. Oh well.
yes alot of them get it wrong though they say they have it but then when getting really specific it turns out to be the wrong one ,the new model neon 200 is different from niki , this phone does not have wifi capability. thanks for your help !I can send a pic if you woul like to see the actual case ?
from expansys http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=160690&asource=162259 they think this might be the one ? it should be 6.5 -7 cm in length with the connectors on the length side?

I killed my HTC TyTN II "Solved"

I killed my Kaiser by flashing a Touch Diamond ROM to it.
Sent it to repair service and they say the Mainboard needs to be replaced,but the price for repair is ultragious .
I realy need the device,it was a big help in my confused life style.
Can anyone tell me how can i fix it myself. Or where i can buy a mainboard. Or where can i send the device to repair for a cheaper service?
Sorry i have started a new thread,but i think this is a serious matter,cause HTC TyTN II is not a toy"I know i done to it the same as to a toy" and its expensive. Please help.
Thanks in advance for all your help guys.
(Solved)

Touch diamond isn't all that great. It's lyk a Nokia platform on a PDA, why'd u flash it to a kaiser anyway ?!
About the raw materials, you can easily get the main board (for cheep) through any cellphone spareparts shop online through google . As far as repair is concerned, its as easy as performing a hardware upgrade for your pc; un-plug--> plug. If you're still scared, you can google for a stp by stp instructions.

As for where to purchase parts, I'd normally tell you to go here: http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~unit~HTC_TyTN_II-972~area~home.htm but they don't have motherboards.
Your best bet might be to buy something from eBay with a cracked screen, because the motherboard, cpu & chipset is usually the most expensive part, and if you fry that it's usually easier to just buy new...
Hope this helps!

Thankx Alex.
I knew that wise words and advice would come out of the inner you.
I went to Mike Channon Home Page and left a message there,im still waiting for a reply.
I will go get the Device from the repair shop tomorrow. Ididnt accepted the price.
I will try and fix it myself,as i have the hability to fix Electronic things as PCs,Laptops,Mobiles etc,thank GOD.
Im low on economic status,but i will try Ebay my friend.
First Kitchen i used was the one with all your OEM Packages. So i love your work.
Hope you keep up in the good path of life .
For some of the others, should ignore any inconscient reply.
Of course i didn wanted to kill my Device. I just cooked HTC Touch Diamond ROM in a Kaiser Kitchen,added some Apps from the ROM i cooked based on C. Stu ROM to make it more colorfull,more alive to our eyes. But it went wrong,and if Man doesnt commited mistakes,so there wouldnt be positive results. Test we need. Mistakes have to occur in order to get better things.
People in Ethiopia have a more confused life than me. Im not an egocentric person, but cool .
I always learned things the hard way .
While I changed my screen I broke the keyboard connector on the mainboard. The brown plastic closing mechanism broke to parts. Any clue where I could buy a new one and if it is possible to change it (solder?)?

he cooked the rom first ... and i'm guessing something didn't go right. OFCOURSE he just didn't straight flash a diamond rom .. he's a cook so i think he knows better than that.

Im sorry for what append to you device. It doesnt make us feel good.
What did realy append ?
What part do you need ?
I have the solution for that. If you need a new Mainboard i can get it for you.
I dont make crazy prices. Probably a new device for the price of a Mainboard,thats what ive done,but im searching for a Mainboard supplier thought .
If you want to know more PM me.

Nope,i didnt straight flashed a Diamond Rom.
I knew i had to cook it. But forgot that i had to Port XIP and probably SYS from a Kaiser ROM to the Diamond one, or the reverse.
Im still on the learning process. But as you must know,Time is the Master.
And learning and take actions till they come correct its a bit time consuming. And i dont have much time these days.
I learned the hard way. I believe thats one thing that will never appen again .
Im waiting for my new Kaiser to arrive. Couldnt find a Mainboard supplier yet.
But i can get Kaisers for less then the price they asked me in the repair shop.

have any one experienced this !

you know the only us port in the kaiser where you charge and where you connect it to the pc. when you first buy the kaiser it would be wonderful then couple months later ..it becomeshappy and doesn't work as good. it starts either rocking or the "teeth" inside start to move that will cause problems with connections and charging.
same thing happened to me with my universal so I threw it away ..but I love this kaiser I have what would be another alternate solution ? please I would appreciate your help.
Yes this is fairly common with this phone. Normally service is suggested.
Warranty FTW!
Just be careful when your plugging and unplugging the device. i.e. take it out and put it in straight, not at any angles.
If you search broken miniusb you'll find several threads. One is of mine when it broke. It was charging in the car and dropped and the "male" part of the extusb on the phone cracked.
I went to an At&t service center, the guy looked at it, told me its frequent and handed me a new device.
that's the problem ...I bought it over ebay
Here ya go...

oh wow..thanks man!
I was looking all over the place and not near me..
I never thought that at&t might have a technical support department..
but that's wonderful.
I know it's a little expensive but i't worth it when you can't live without your ppc.

<< Plug alert >>
PPC-Techs is not AT&T technical support, but I highly recommend them. I have used their screen protectors on my devices since my Ipaq 1900. Their customer serices is excellent.
I just had the mini usb replaced on my Tilt by PPCTechs. HTC wanted over $350 to repair. PPCTech was about $75. Excellent service and high speed.

thank you sooo much guys ...I'm probably going to look for the HTC Universal and send it to those guys too!
