I have been searching for a dummy phone (non working replica) of the X Fold, similar to what some stores use as display models. I searched eBay and other various sites and it's no go, seems this phone is too new, and too niche. I can't even find any genuine but broken non working models online.
It will be used as a stand in for experiments. 3D printed case, GoPro mount, custom bike mount etc.

So recently (as detailed in another post) my Tilt's USB port died, so I did a warranty swap and just got a new one.
However, I'm soon moving to an area without 3G and so the device has become significantly less appealing. So I figured before listing it on eBay, I'd offer it up here.
The details, it's an AT&T Tilt 8925 (the model WITH camera). It has the new style USB port (the one that doesn't break ) and is a refurbished unit from AT&T, but is in like-new condition. (There are no blemishes/scratches/anything to be seen).
The battery cover is mine (AT&T doesn't replace that with warranty swaps) and does have a crack in the plastic camera protector, but it is not in the camera's vision, so it's purely a cosmetic thing. I'm sure you can easily find new backplates if it bothers you.
I also have all the original accessories/manual which have never been touched (the charger/USB cable are still in their plastic pouches in the original box) as well as a 3rd-party car charger. There is also an unused screen protector that AT&T includes with every unit.
As far as payment goes, it's going to have to be through PayPal since it is (sadly) the only (moderately) reputable method of managing payments. I'll ship it anywhere, but you'll have to pay for the shipping (coming from Dallas, TX, USA).
If anyone wants pictures (it looks like like any other Tilt though...) or any info ask.
Mods: I checked the rules displayed when signing up and it says nothing against listing items FS, nor does the rules thread in the general forum, and I did a search and found several other people selling items with no complaints, so I'm assuming it's okay. Also, I'm posting it here since there isn't a marketplace forum. I figured someone has to have broken their Kaiser and is in need of a new one
Oh, and I haven't so much as powered the device on, so it's still running the AT&T firmware with AT&T SPL.
And my battery is in good condition, I regularly get 2 days of light usage out of it (and it could go further, but I generally charge it so that it doesn't...ya know...randomly die on me)
And how much are you asking for this Tilt..?
yeah im curious about your asking price too

Wait? What!?!?!?! There is a tilt with 2 cameras?!?!?! Or are you just referring to the normal AT&T Tilt. The no camera is only available to businesses.

I'm pretty sure he's referring to the fact that it's an 8925, not the 8900. That's the AT&T model without any camera at all. No front camera on either model.
Sorry, been neglecting my own thread
I was referring to the fact that it has the standard 3MP camera on the back. I was just trying to clarify that because I've seen a lot of scams involving the swapping of the two models.
Oh, I have a 2GB microSD card that you can have because I don't have any other devices that use microSD. (It has one of those little microSD-->SD adapters and a plastic case that holds both)
Also, yeah, I'm an idiot and forgot to give a price. For the phone, original wall charger, original sync cable, OEM car charger, and 2GB microSD I think $300 is fair.
PM me if you're interested.
Hi folks, apologies if this has been asked before - I have tried to search the forums already but '3G' and 'UK' are omitted from the search query for being too short/common which makes it kind of impossible to get a result...
Anyway; I live in the UK and want an eReader. for obvious reason the Nookcolor is getting my attention but I wonder if there is any point in getting the 3G version shipped over or should I save my cash and get the Wifi only model? I don't believe the 3G is enabled in the UK due to licencing restrictions with AT&T but if I root it, can I use 3G and a UK sim card for web browsing?
Secondly, I'm seeing a number of people complain about screen issues and dodgy USB connectors - given that a friend of mine living in the US will be buying it and shipping it over to me - what tests should he perform to check it's ok before sending it?
Cheers .M.
3g nook color doesn't exist. easy decision!
Nope, no 3g. Screen issues I've heard of (but not seen) include dead pixels or dust under the front surface glass. That's easy to look for.
The dodgy USB connector isn't all that much of a problem in my view. They should have caught it, however. They also should have recessed the jack and put it somewhere other than the front middle -- it's vulnerable as it is.
I've heard that a generic mini-USB cable that fits solves the problem -- suggesting that the issue is in the cable and not the jack. I've no idea if that's true, however.
I'd have your friend charge it, start it up and and run it through it's paces. Check the screen, make sure the speaker works, etc. Then repack it and ship it off to you. And don't throw the box away -- it's designed to be a nifty stand.
thanks guys - genuinely hadn't caught the fact that there isn't a 3G version of the color.
Hey, I'm looking at replacing my USB flex cable (consisting of buttons, microphone, micro usb port, antenna connector) due to it being defective. However, I used to have a i9100, where replacing this part was very difficult as the reception would suffer if you didn't get the right revision of the board. Some had to resort to cutting (!) the board, and sort of create Frankenstein's board, that actually worked...
Do any of you know if this is the case with i9295? I'm looking for a replacement on ebay, and there are many different revisions and versions out there.
some vendors sell their boards as compatible with both i537 and i9295, while others say their part is only compatible with one of the two
there seem to be two different designs for button layout, as seen in one of the attached pictures. My menu key is way lower than the other two, while the other design available has them in line. Is this a less important difference than it seems? I would think that the buttons wouldn't function properly, if I had to guess based on the images. Some boards sold as i9295-compatible has that design...
As seen in the pictures, my board is rev12a 0510.
Would I need a specific revision, or are the i9295/i537 boards all compatible with each other?
(I've tried asking most every vendor on ebay, but most don't know/understand what I'm asking)

Edit: I've tried contacting Samsung tech support and other repair facilities, but none of them could give me any information. None of them actually repaired the phone. If no external damage was found they would simply replace the device.
Hi y'all!
After various days of researching I found nothing or inconsistent info on this.
The matter is, my gf gave to me her 1,4 years old Mate 20 Lite SNE-LX1 with the screen broken. I bought her a new Xiaomi handset (better specs) and had the Huawei repaired to use it for developing/research/alternative phone. She gave everything to me (box, quick startup guide, warranty card, OEM charger+cable, SIM/MicroSD tray key and even the protective original films) but she can't remrmber if this thing came with OEM headphpnes and/or silicone transparent case.
I saw several unboxing videos where OEM in-ear headphones and transparent silicone case are shown. I already purchased a similar case (no luck whatsoever in locating the OEM one, though).
As I like to have things well cared and complete, I went and tried to buy the OEM earphones. First I located a Huawei AM115 reference in Amazon, in the ad they showed a so-apparent Huawei thing, claiming 'original' and even with the Huawei logo in the pic, priced at 6,20€. So I went and ordered two units (one for normal use, the other as a backup). When the lot arrived... Big bluff!! Simply fake, cheap ones with no logo on them, cheap creacky plastic and awful sound, packaged into a small zip bag with a sticker over the original sticker with the crap's reference (0229, no manufacturer or other infp). Even worse, the second unit was a even poorly made copy of a Samsung earphones from 4 years in the past! Of course I returned them inmediately.
Now i'm in a big doubt.... I saw a lot of options both in Amazon and eBay. I would prefer to buy there, or even directly from a Huawei dealer here in Spain.
So, the question is... Does anyone of you can tell what the EXACT reference (i.e.
model no.) must be and, if possible, a reliable seller to purchase from?
Thanks in advance, people! Stay safe! ?

Hello,
has anyone successfully managed to replace USB-C port on S20 FE (G780F/DS)? I tried two different replacement boards and phone always refuses to charge with them -- reporting too high temperature of the connector. Swaping back the original one works without any issue.
I need to replace whole board because of faulty microphone, connector itself works just fine. That's how I figured out it is not the matter of faulty replacement part.
when it comes to buying replacement boards from Allibaba, Alliexpress, eBay or Amazon, beware of anything that's cheaper than the most expensive by a long way.
it seems to be a thing in Chinese factories that the bin full of Q.C. fails doesn't always get destroyed, sometimes it makes it's way onto market style websites at prices that'll get people clicking.
I've had this 3 times with completely different classes of products produced in China.
buy another board, check ifixit.com or find a reputable seller with strong reviews.
