wifi & BT chip - HTC Desire S

Hi,
Is there by any chance a possibility of replacing wifi/BT chip on desire s? Extracting it from old desire s mobo? A tech is offering to fix the chip by heating it or replace if he cant fix it. I'm just not sure if its possible.
Does anyone knows?
Thanks,

[Q] Which Wi-Fi / WLAN chipset has the Nexus-S?

Hey guys!
I´m acutally thinking about buying the nexus-S for application development.
What I need is a wifi-chipset, which allows to set the phone to "promiscuous" or better "monitor"-mode in order to analyze packets within the network.
At the moment I own an HTC Desire, which can access the promisc mode using cyanogenmod 7. The Desire (=Nexus one) has a broadcom BCM 4329 chipset.
Does anyone know, which chipset the Nexus S uses and maybe if it can use the monitor or promisc mode?
Or maybe anyone HAS a nexus S and could test this using "Pixie-Probe" from android market?!

I don't know if there are going to bemany people who are willing to crack open their TPs to test this. I would also doubt that there are going to be any android drivers since that would require that the developers have a TP with this installed. Very unlikely.
Thanks for this fox!! I was always wanting to see about adding a radio card to the TP. I knew the difference between the cell version and regular version of the TP had to be a simple module connected either via ribbon, coaxial, or both. Some simple empty space ready for a radio card to be plugged into it. I guess I was partially right. :3
I really will consider doing this. Although I am loyal to T-Mobile USA and it doesn't seem to support this Going to check out some disassembly videos and see what I'm up against. But it would be nice to have a cell-capable TP.
Bookmark saved, thanks again!
What about this one?
Ericsson F3307
Seems to be the same one used in epad, so I'm guess there are drivers for it; so I'm guessing it can be used on android, but for webos it'd need porting - maybe from the android version or the linux version (don't know what the dependencies are).
Or maybe others too.

I just want to save someone from damaging their TouchPad doing this mod. The modem will not work on a WiFi model since their boards are different. The 4G model has the connection for the AT&T modem whereas the WiFi model doesn't have the connection present. I've learnt this through swapping parts out for servicing my TouchPad 4G on a mule TouchPad WiFi.

[Q] eMMC chip replace or not ?

Hi guys,
My eMMC chip needs to be replaced after I bricked the phone
The service recommends me to change the entire main board (145 Eur) because:
- HTC does not allow authorized services to replace this part.
- They say that it is not safe (only for HTC not other manufacturers)
- They refuse to make this operation and I should go somewhere else if I insist to replace just the chip.
What should I do ? Pay 145 Eur for the entire mainboard or search a service that agrees to replace the chip ?
Since I know that this is a common problem, has any of you replaced just the sim and all was fine after that ?
thanks in advance !
145 is way too much. I'm sure you could find someone local who does it cheaper. In fact, one user managed to successfully replace it himself. Although I wouldn't try that unless you know what you're doing

Adding Bluetooth 4.0 hardware to S+ i9001 - is it possible?

I got a fitness band recently, and had my Moto G stolen from me. Is it possible to add a bluetooth 4.0 hardware to the phone?
I've been wondering about hardware tinkering for a while. Just wanted to know.
Hi,
Nope, impossible.

What's wrong with this?

I recently changed the core board in my px3 unit to px5 and now it does this

I've also lost Bluetooth and WiFi capabilities too
Anyone knows what's going on here?
Thanks in advance
