me too pre, wrong section coz mine is Uni but im a native of Bulacan as well, no choice again red .
to myxXx, have you tried to check greenhills for knocked out units? there are stalls over there selling parts of xda or busted unit for parts? if to no avail, try to call dopod service center at 7283388 and hopefully they might give you a better answer to your queries, as in where and how much, like what i did before when i needed my xda IIi back cover to be replaced. luckily, someone called me thereafter and presto.. the rest is history.
the above info, notwithstanding, i strongly suggest that you pm red and let him do the rest
dont worry red, i wont ask for commission, a bottle of beer will do

hehehe lol

Bro log on to www.airfagev.com. Go to the forums and look under accessories thread. There is a member named "artic", he sells parts and accessories for all kinds of pda phones. last time i checked available brand new xda2 housing at 1800-2000. You can pick it up at any LRT/MRT station that you both agree upon or he can mail it to you. there is also a member named "kulas_sap" who repairs pda phones. my xda2 had a broken charging slot and I could not have it repaired anywhere for 2 years until I got in touch with them. he charges cheap and may guarantee.

Just weigh it
Original Samsung: 34 grams
Fake 1930 mah: 25 grams
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Hmmm maybe I can ask the seller about the weight..thanx
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App

Can't be true. 1930mAh was bad and this is same outlook, just bigger numbers... I had the 1930mAh for few days and it was bad... Pretty close to stock but still worse than stock.

[Q] Sensation USB port destroyed

AAAHHHHHH! Phone fell whilst charging and ripped the USB port.
I want to get the port replaced, forget about an external charger and switching batteries every time...
Wondering if anyone has ever had a port replaced. is it doable? I'll try calling some phone repair stores, but it's Sunday so nobody is open. Just a little stressed out (lol), so if anyone knows or has had this problem before any info is appreciated. Just for peace of mind...
I got the phone BNIB on craigslist, no receipt and no warranty. I'm hoping getting it fixed is just a 60$ deal at a place like this: http://www.cellmall.net/repairs.htm
Thanks,
Ced.

It's doable.
Here's the part: http://www.cellulardr.com/t-mobile-...100-sensation-charging-connector-tmobile.html
You might want to verify your model # and check if the part # matches up. Shouldn't be too hard if you know what you're doing.

Thanks for the info

Ok, just letting you guys know it's fixed.
It cost 75$ here, a bit on the high side but at least everything now works...
Thanks to all who contributed and helped reduce my stress level

That seems pretty expensive. Nonetheless, enjoy!

People those who are buyin cases from AliExpress just wanna ask is it relaible??

I m from India and gettin quality cases is really difficult, either the cases are way too costly or the shipping charges kills it!!
So was thinkin abt buyin it from AliExpress!
If my post helped u a bit...help me by pressin the THANK button!!!

AliExpress is just fine. You probably won't find the highest quality on there, but I own a lot of stuff ordered from aliexpress, because in switzerland we have limited stuff for android and it's very expensive.

Dont frget to press the THANK button!!!

I order stuff all the time from aliexpress. I own a little repair shop and we order both parts and accessories through the site. It's basically a Chinese Amazon. Tons of different vendors. Luckily, the couple issues we had with the wrong orders or what not have been taken care of as quickly as possible.

a canghe gamer: a simple bracelet

Hi guys.
I'll be very quick and simple (thx mother):
Most of the female keep the mobile in the handbag.among a lot of stuff.
Most of guys keep the mobile somewhere and the ringtone bothers people.
Here my idea: a bluetooth plain bracelet that vibrare when u got a call or a notification.
It's so simple that i think it is already on the mkt.
If not, i would say it could sell a lot.
I'm not in the mkt but i can offer money and share profits from who wanna get in this adventure.
ciao!

Looks like a great idea however I think a lot of women won't wear it because it won't match with their shoes or whatever.
Something what will be better is creating a small device what can be attached on their bra (with a clip or smth like that) so people won't see it.

Ok, as a female I have just one comment: nope! not a chance, not in a million years! Missing a notification is not a big enough deal to clip uncomfortable ugly things to our under clothes that would create all kinds of unsightly and questionable bulges! The first idea has more of a chance, but only if it looked like jewelry. And I still wouldn't buy it...
I have a pebble. It is very useful because my phone (or nexus 7) does end up in my purse on mute pretty much all the time. What I need is a pebble that is not so ugly! Much much much thinner for starters. Then we can talk about making it smaller. Then we can talk about accessorizing so it matches shoes/purse/coat, etc. But at least for me, I need more than just notification that something just happened. I want to know what happened to decide whether it's worth fishing for my phone or tablet in the depths of my purse... usually the answer is: no. And it's nice to know that. Which is why I put up with the pebble being so big and ugly. I could not bring myself to consider any of the bigger options. Most women will not consider pebble either because it is still too big. You want our money, you need to figure out how to make it very thin first, then you need to make it in a variety of shapes and sizes. But all must have a super thin profile to start.

Seems a good idea.

this idea ...
Do you want a bit too perfect..

Different vibrations for different apps

It has been done and it is called a MEMI and you can order one at hellomemi .com . As I have not done "10 posts" I cannot contribute a link and ATM it is iPhone only but the concept is there and working. It looks a bit big and bangley (sp) for me but for a lot of ladies this may be the ticket!

P.S Admins freaking editing a post is not spamming your board! This is absolutely stupid! I've been a member since 2011 and I only post pertinent questions and answers here. Goodness lighten up!

This has got me thinking, has anyone tried tethering their phone to their computer, as one would with a car, and pipe the audio through something like pulse audio so that every speaker in the house announces the call.
I'll have to try that later.

What about a doorbell? Your idea COULD hook up to the same system, via bluetooth or something, and be connected to a doorbell, that would make a boisterous cacophony through the house (Westminster Chimes), alerting of a telephone call.

Two chime's for front door, one chime for back door, and a repeating melody for a phone call. Hah, good thing my phone doesn't ring often.

Or even better yet, we could resurrect house-lines! A telephone that was connected a the house, and two or three phones were spread around the house....Connect the house line and the cell phone onto the same line, so when you are home, you can put you cell phone somewhere, and be able to access it at any of the phones that you place around your house? Or something dramatic.

I've thought about resurecting my old phones with a voip line, that would be even better.

Yes, the ultimate form of leave me alone phone communication! I shall do the same.

Getting this thread back on track.. lol
I also think this would be a great idea and I am seriously surprised it does not currently exist. What I want is simple, a band that doesn't look like a cheap piece of crap, that mirrors my phones vibrations. Maybe a multi colored LED that also mirrors my phones. Memi doesn't exists yet and is iphone only. Ritot appears to be a scam. Vybe also isn't shipping yet, Fitbit, Sony, Nike etc are just concerned with heart rate and sleep patterns which I could care less about. I want my wrist to vibrate the exact same way my phone does. Weird. The jawbone up24 looks neat but again doesnt appear to do it. Is there a way for an app to send vibrations to a bluetooth device? or do you need a specific API for the device itself?
grr..
