Is there anyone in the xda community that can and will do them, that you have experience with possibly? Needing a few simple pcb's done and would be nice if they are located in the USA as well. Thanks!
Are you asking about printed circuit boards? PCB can mean several different things.
Im sorry, but yes. A printed circuit board with traces, pads, header, and a connecter. A combination of the 2 boards pictured that I just attached.

Hey guys, I managed to get a SK4G for really cheap, but the problem is the USB connector is broken.
Usually I can find these things on ebay for real cheap ($5-10 shipped) but for this particular model I can't find any for some reason...
Can anyone point me in the right direction? A digikey part number perhaps? I'd like to figure it out before opening it up just to save time and less chance of loosing/damaging parts before I repair it.
Thanks!
It's not precisely identical, but http://search.digikey.com/us/en/products/10103593-0001LF/609-4049-1-ND/2350356 looks like it'll fit.
I'm going by the photos I took for http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1466906
Thanks! That's just the reference I needed! I was able to reflow the connector instead actually and fix the problem

A bit of the black part of the antenna that is circled in the picture kind of broke off when i was disassembling my phone. I think this is the thing that controls your phone signal. If it is, does anyone know if this will stop my signal completely and mean I have to buy a new antenna? I have no way of checking because I broke the cable connecting the antenna to the main board (don't ask) and the replacement doesn't arrive for a while. (The picture attached isn't the picture of my exact phone. It's from google images. But its the same model) The other 4 thingies are still in tact but the thing circled is broken off.

This question cannot be answered without testing. Try it, if it works, the answer is no, if not, the answer is yes.
Unfortunately, waht exad said. Stuff like that is so unpredictable. Keep in mind that pretty much EVERYTHING on modern phones is tiny. There are entire chips and resistor packs that would be described as miniscule, but are critical.
If you have it apart already, and can find a replacement part and it's easy enough to replace, I'd hedge my bets and just replace it while I'm in there rather than putting it back together and learning the hard way that you have to go through it all again.
similar issue
Have the same issue.I accidently trapped gsm antenna wire between housing and dock connector. Its been bent in 4 or 5 points.searching for network gives error."error while searching for networks ”
Please suggest what can I do.
Replace the part.

Alright. Apparently this specific phone has weird or messed up POGO pins. And I really need some help.
I've searched but can't find anyone with this issue.
There are supposed to be 5 pins total (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1611116). On my phone, there are 5 positions, but the first (GND) is blocked off by the outer plastic of the case. I picked away the plastic to find no pin present, just a plastic stub from within the phone. And while I will (next week) be taking the phone apart to do multiple things (replace broken digitizer, & upgrade battery, replace back-door), surely someone knows something about this?
I ordered a Seidio Innocell case to further enhance my battery life. It is the version marked to support the AT&T variant. However it does not work. I would think that the GND connection is unnecessary to charge the battery (unsafely), so I can only assume that the 4 pins available are not as identified with other variants. Perhaps the 1st pin is dislodged by some means, though that does not explain the plastic covering it... Other than perhaps a manufacturer defect that I never noticed?
Can anyone assist?
Like I said I'll be opening it up soon, so I'll probably modify the back door to support this Innocell casing anyway. So any information would be useful as to what might be going wrong here.
*EDIT:
I can confirm after picking away more plastic, that there IS indeed the 1st pin (you can see it in attached image if you look closely), and that my phone was poorly manufactured. The pin is shoved beneath the casing due to lack of clearance when it was assembled. No wonder. Charging still does not work, so I'm wondering if there is a way I can manually test these two pins (#1 & #5) for charging capabilities? 5v battery and two wires perhaps?
This belongs in the q&a section, not sure why you've posted it here?
Where did you buy the phone?

My apologies, first time posting. I read the posting stickies, and did not think to post it in the appropriate location.
This phone was purchased from Walmart, with the related AT&T contract. One month before they released the OneX+, what luck.
My battery is at post office now, should arrive later today. I'll install and update my post, though I believe I'll be solving my own problem & answering my own question soon enough. Completion sake, anyways. The pins do work, i sent voltage through it using a multimeter, and android notified me I was using an invalid charging apparatus (incorrect mwa i guess? was @1.5v). SO that's good news I suppose.
Wow, I've never seen a new Evita with such a serious manufacturing defect like that. You should swap it out under warranty.

Haha i know right. I just opened it up, all 5 pins are available on the motherboard's bottom connector(radio/pogo/buttonLEDs). But indeed, they did not properly cut the 1st pin's plastic. Nor did they insert the actual pogo pin on it, which are both back-door flaws. Back-door assembly line failure - lol Sounds dirty.
Well all is well now. I used a HOX+ back-door instead, cause the red on black looks nice. SO I didn't have to rig my own graphite onto the plastic. All 5 pins working perfectly. Attached some photos so you guys can see what I mean. Take care all, this issue is now resolved
Ok well here is my issue. While replacing the LCD assembly on my one plus one I managed to rip off the metal connectors(I believe they are called pogo sticks) on the logic board that make contact with the antenna's on the back cover. I ripped the ones that control the WiFi/Bluetooth and also the GPS one. I was trying to figure out how to fix this since when trying to soder them back on there was nothing they could be soldered to. I'm basically left with the empty spots on the PCB board where they are supposed to go. While looking at the logic board I saw that there are a couple of pigtail looking connectors on it that don't have anything particularly connected to them. I was wondering if I could use those to repair my connection issues. Or of any of you have any advice to give thank you for all your help ^_^
I'm wondering if anyone knows what these are... I cant find any info anywhere on that particular SMD code. They're on the underside of a MTCD core board and there's a number of them. The burned one has something to do with the LCD backlight/dimming function, as this isn't working after a mishap that led to letting the smoke out. I believe they're either caps or diodes simce there's clearly a polarity marker on them, but I'm kinda at a loss and would really appreciate any light anyone could shine on my problem.
Thanks in advance!!!
Been a while, so I figured it'd be ok to bump. Anyone have any ideas? I'd love to get this thing functioning correctly again!!
How many solder pads? I intrepted the pic of the failed component as “TAK” looked it up here. Keep scrolling. https://smd.yooneed.one/code5441.html
Yeah... I found that site as well. The issue is that there's only two conductors on these components and every part listed there has more. So it's definitely not any of those they have listed.
