How did it happen? Maybe you dropped it? Or water got into it? If you can take a logcat and upload it I can take a look. You can also try to clean it with isopropyl alcohol, it won't hurt the electronics.

Why dont you drown your Defy it should be water resistant up to one meter.
Motorola have to repair or replace your Defy when it breaks of water damage i would think.
But i think they will just replace some parts and not send you a completely new handset.

Boy your insane. Believe me they wont exchange ur phone for a new one. Instead they'll keep ur unit with them for a week, promising u that the problem will b resolved and then after a week they'll return u the same handset by repairing the defected part
Sell the old and buy a new one. Simple!

yo work done lets see what Moto has to say on this
Not to be rude or anything,
But what is the point of having a forum if each time someone finds an answer you delete it?
Instead of removing the question and just saying done, would be good to actually answer how you did it, since I dont think you are the only one who might wanna pull this off.
Maybe he thinks if Motorola reads this topic his defy's won't be repaired.
But you're right - he shouldn't delete it.
Haha what about they will change your board, but not the camera? XD

I'm curious. Any update on this?

[Q] Removing battery cover and/or change SIM

Hello
Has anyone got any ideas on how to remove the back cover on the Photon Q 4G? I want to know if I can remove the SIM and replace with my 'foreign' SIM. I did research and found that the SIM is embedded under the battery, but in order to get to that you need to still get to the battery.
Please help.

I was curious of this myself so I took my Photon Q apart right now for you and no it does not has a removable sim it soldered to the board and covered and enclosed in the board meaning you can't get to it with out breaking the Mother Board.

I guess phones are demo phones for retailers that can't be used for anything else anyway
More importantly, I'd like to know the post-testing results. Able to dry out and work like new? Any screwy controls/gross display issues? Would be cool knowing that if my phone did happen to take a dip it wouldn't mean an automatic send-off to the manufacturer.

Funny you should say that, I had a similar problem with my S2, some sort of debris got into the port, and it blew the whole charging PCB ! Found one instantly on ebay tho so it was clearly a known issue.

What real life scenario do these "hammer tests" replicate? Of course it will smash your phone if you use a bloody hammer! As for water/beer test, not as worse, but still silly. And doesn't prove a thing either, mind.

Hurtful to watch, but at least we know that the phone is water and beer resistant lol

Interesting experience for a non water resistant device. It's the charging and usb port still working? Speakers and microphone?

Yeah wow, looks pretty shoddy, but considering I don't see repair parts for the special edition anywhere, I don't think we'd have a choice. I guess with a case on it afterwards you probably wouldn't be able to tell anyway. Quick question - have you compared the connectors of the backlight for the Kenzo and Kate? Is there any difference? Wonder if it might be software related?

Has anybody tried replacing both the screen and the backplate? If we're lucky we only have to change both and then have no 2mm gap between display and housing.

Hmm? The midframe is 152.5mm... Xiaomi did not extended the length of this phone for fun... if you did that it would not fit at all
Another update... I talked to the people at Cellspare.com and they say that they should have stock again within two months. A long time to wait for parts :/

I have just ordered it, it was available for the gold one at least. Previous to the payment I calculated shipping cost to Finland with my address and it was 0€, it said also the delivery time was 7-10 days. After they´ve received the payment (39,42€), they sent an e-mail with the real delivery time: 11/05. So from 7-10 days to 23 days...
I will have time to check some youtube videos about LCD replacement and decide if I will do it by myself, meanwhile I´m already asking for budget is some shops... I´m not quite slick about assemblings/ replacements.

I have seen many videos, and for me the best one is one from Hon..buy mobile shop (hope you know the youtube channel I mean as I can´t post links yet!)
It´s quite clear and you can perfectly see every single action.
