Hi i have an origanal headphone/mic for the G1 and it has becoume a bit tatterd over the years, i was wondering if anyone new where the solderpoints on the usb board bit are (well the colours to what solder points.
I have treid searching xda and goodle to no help at all
was hoping someone who had ether the knowledge or the picstures to show me which colour goes to which solderpoint lol..
Thnak you.

Hi all,
Has anyone figured out how to mute a radio? What signal from the XDA could be used / could be used as a signal for some circuitry (I can design that myself).

Hey Robert.
I´m sorry to tell you that i could not help you, but if you get some hints or tips tey are welcome to me too....
I´m looking forward to create my own Car KIt, but the Problem is still the Mute function
Regards

carkit: mute: two pages claiming that grounding is solution
Stefan,
Below two links to pages both claiming that (at least on nokia stuff) they ground the mute pin on the radio. If that is the case than the circuitry is not much of a problem.
Step 1: I will test if grounding really does it. I have 2 or 3 old radio's lying around, just need a volunteer to find them :wink:
Step 2: figure out how to detect that muting should take place. I need some help here because I am not to familiar with the XDA yet.
Step 3: build some circuitry.
Step 4: post it here (for review as well)

Hey everyone,
I have a strong backing in electronics, and I have a G1. I don't dare open it because it's my only phone and I'm a college student, however, I want to study the circuit board to see how we can exploit the device.
My first idea I want to investigate is just building a chip flasher to flash the ROM. There's no way they could block that. I see the threads on working with the JTAG, however, I'm not familiar in that area. Wouldn't it make more sense to build a solderless chip flasher?
Regardless, does anybody have some high-res images of the board, front and back?
Wrong section, and I don't think many users will hold the high res pictures you are looking for...I could be wrong =)

I wasn't sure whether to put this in Q&A or not, as I wanted to discuss development of the chips once identified.

I looked through it, unfortunately, it did not detail the main board. I really would like to just study the traces on the board. Does anybody have a front and back picture of the main board?

Look in the debricking JTAG testpoint thread in development. First post has some good pictures of the top (side that faces the inside part, toward the screen side) part of the board. I had mine open the other day but I didn't take any pics, sorry
This is my first post ever so..... thank all of you for sacrificing your time and dedicating yourself to not only breaking new ground, but selflessly sharing with all of us. I appreciate it.
I have read, searched and looked for myself, but this is above my head!!!
I saw some people talking about microSD wifi cards, but due to the size of them the project seemed to die as quickly as it started.
I found a mini usb n/g wifi adaptor. Search google or amazon, there are several of them.
Any ideas if this could work? I do not have the programing ability or knowledge to take on this project but would love some help. I appreciate it!

I do not thank the vogue's hardware supports host usb.
I'd PM dzo...he's the man when it comes to stuff like that. He knows the vogue inside and out.

I would love to see this happeneing.
I'm looking for a busted captivate for research. I belive we may be able to boot from a micro SD card.
I have to remove the processor and reverse engineer the board in order to find the power supply to the line called XOM5 in the processor manual. Once this line is found, it may be as simple as shorting, slicing the line, or popping a resistor off the board.
Repairing the phone afterwards would be beyond my capabilities.. I can't perform ball soldering. That takes some highly specialized tools. You would be doing a great service to everyone with a GalaxyS phone.
The phone does not need to work, and can be in horrible condition. It can be water damaged or physically broken. The only thing I need is the main board inside the phone.
bump......
Sorry man only got my every day phone. Ill keep an eye out in the island see if i can help with your project.
hey i have a 1008 phone. screen busted. possibly stuck in bootloop. its in a couple peices.

Yes! that's all I need. I'll send you a PM.

I would like to learn more how a CB works and how to trace certain things on a board as well as other parts. Any books or reference guides besides schematics that could help me? PM me if you will. Infact anyone that knows anything could help me, please PM. Thanks.

A better place for a newbie to start would be circuit bending... hopping electricity from one point on a circuit board to another to alter the operating state. This would be a great place to start... http://hackaday.com/2011/01/11/intro-to-circuit-bending/
Once you get familiar with how things work on a circuit board, start examining the individual components in greater detail. There's some datasheets in here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1111866 which you could use to understand how a couple of the major players on our phone works. Speciffically, the USB controller (FSA9480) and the Processor (S5PC110). It really takes some additional education to start reading processor manuals....
You could always start with something simpler like Arduino platform. The Arduino platform allows you to create a basic program which runs on a microprocessor and take inputs and outputs from it. I like the Arduino because it's so darn quick to pick up.
here's some of the stuff I programmed on the Arduino

This one would be a great first project. http://www.hyundaiaftermarket.org/forum/blog/3/entry-26-arduino-ef-meter/
If you really want to understand how a circuit board works, the best way is to go to school, or start playing with one... You could get started pretty cheap http://www.google.com/search?client...gc.r_pw.&fp=d4257c808144b93c&biw=1333&bih=651 or you can get a better one like in the Android Open Acessory Kit (it's actually an Arduino Mega with additional sensors) http://www.google.com/search?client...gc.r_pw.&fp=d4257c808144b93c&biw=1333&bih=651
So yeah... Learning electronics is reading, playing and doing.

Hey, thanks a lot. I'm sure I'll be able to get something out of it. Hopefully this will help with my job some too!
Hey , when and If your able to boot from micro sd...will this method be like the nook color?

Basically. that's the idea. perform a slight hardware modification, then boot from SDCard from then on. Of course, first, I'll be focusing on just recovering a bricked phone by providing the phone a PBL/SBL/SBL2 on a MMC card.
Any progress?

Hi there, i have a MTC-RK3188-REVO.3 board with a little bit of damage....
One of the resistors has been knocked off,
Im wondering if anyone on here could help me identify what component is in the red circle on my picture?
Thank you

You are in the wrong forum, this is Android Auto.
You want Android Head Unit or maybe a MTCD forum
it wouldnt allow me to post it there....
could an admin move my post do you think?
