Nokia :: X6 - USB Port Metal Shield Connector Raptured?
Mar 15, 2010
I bought a new X6 from operator before Xmas. Just in 3+ weeks USB port metal shield in phone was ruptured from phone circuit board and metal holding came out with the cable. Board was not damaged as I could get USB working by keeping cable in manually in right position but as it was not secured it stopped working as soon as phone moved even slightly. Using Nokia Comes with Music/Ovi store during Xmas heavily I connected/disconnected usb 200+ times in this short time frame.
Nokia repair shop took the phone for repairs for over 5 weeks and surprised by a billed (40 Euros) statement that it can't be repaired satisfactorily. It's not within Nokia limited warranty terms and I should by a new phone! I can't complain as consumer as I bought phone for my company and can't use my private insurance to cover replacement. As I bought it via an operator I'm wondering whose Quality Assurance I should now complain. As a telecoms consultant I've advised several equipment manufacturers on quality assurance but this really puzzles me.

I've been Googling to try to find an adapter or cable to connect to the internal antenna port on the PCB, but I don't know what the industry terminology for such a connector is, so I don't even know what to Google. Can someone tell me what I need and/or point me to a site where I can buy it? My phone has no external antenna port and an inductive adapter/cradle is not good enough. Yes, I will be very careful and provide strain relief, etc., when I hook it up.

finally, with USB-2Go, I can find valid reason to upgrade from N70. good pixel camera, ability to browse files from external drive, and HDMI out. Well my question is, is the USB2Go port seperate from the HDMI out port ? If yes, does it mean I can use the N8 to browse my external drive and play video thru my HDTV ? So Nokia N8 can be my full fledged media center, radio player, camera, phone

Due to its grey colour, the keys don't create a strong contrast and they are hard to read in some conditions when light is coming from a certain direction because the keypad backlight come out to soon. Especially indoor I can't read any of the keys. I'm really disappointed when after I installed the latest software upgrade this problem still exist. Is it possible to "turn off" the ambient light sensor that I'm supposing causes this problem? Have you same issue? Some workaround or fix available?

The local Nokia repair store says my 3-month-old Lumia has a "broken" USB connector. This seemed so outrageous that I searched and found this forum with several similiar complaints hidden in other threads. The symptom is that the phone won't charge... which is similiar to several other software related problems. However, to reduce confusion, let's please focus this thread on broken/damaged USB connectors.If your phone won't charge, you can check if you have a broken USB. Just look at yours in comparison to a USB connector on a different phone. I believe this is a manufacturing/part failure in the Nokia. I did not damage my phone. Another poster's phone had this same problem directly out of the box. Another user was eventually successful in getting Nokia to replace his phone. (My local service center wants €290 + 23% IVA to repair what I did not break.)

According to my IT guy I need to get my phone to pull emails out either on port 995 for SSL POP3 or on port 993 for SSL IMAP. My phone errors out when I setup the account through the phone. Koodo does not allow setting it up through a browser. They say the server I have used my 8830 on for years is not compatible with my new 9360 and that it is a Blackberry problem!

I used invisible shield on my ipod touch and was reasonably happy but the iphone 4 has such a smooth, glossy screen, I wondering if I want to add something with as tacky a feel as the invisible shield. What are you people all using for your iphone film protector?

I have been reading some conflicting stuff online. Some people are saying that you must be touching the metal side rails of the phone for the scanner to read a fingerprint and that's why people with cases on are having trouble. Other people are saying your finger just needs to touch the little metal edge of the button on the back of the phone for it to work. I held my phone by the plastic top and bottom and my fingerprint unlocked it perfectly..I wasn't touching any of the metal side rails. My case hasn't arrived yet so I haven't tested it with a case on.

If I set my phone on a metal service and let the screen turn off, it turns off EVERY time, without fail. The only way to turn it back on is by removing and replacing the battery. I've gotten pretty good at avoiding metal surfaces now, but occasionally I forget, and it's a major inconvenience.Is anyone else having this problem? Could this be related to the SoD problem? As for details, there's not much else to it, but if you're intrigued, keep reading for more information.
System: 45.3.6.MB855.Sprint.en.USBuild: 4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_6No case on the phone. I have many apps installed, but this has happened with a fully loaded phone and a recently formatted phone, so that's not the issue. Any type of metal surface causes the phone to turn off. Some examples: inside my desk drawer, on a metal table at a restaurant, on top of a napkin dispenser.I reiterate: this has happened when the phone is brand new, untouched, and when the phone is fully loaded. It also ONLY happens on metal, and has never once turned off while sitting on any other surface.

Im thinking of getting the Zagg invisible shield because I want my phone to be naked but still somewhat protected. Has anyone put the invisible shield on their iphone 4? If so should I get the full body or just the front and back? I'm also a little worried that it will unstick at some point and start to peel off. Any feedback would be great.

I have a Nokia N97, the charging port as broken, so i require this to be replaced....
I was wondering is the charging block (available from ebay) connected with a screw or is it attached to the main pcb (motherboard) of the nokia headset?
Will this be covered under the warranty at all?
The Headset was given as a birthday present.... so will this be okay?

Recently some of the metal pieces that make up the symbol on my Rogers OEM battery door have come off and I was looking at ordering a new door. On True Supplier they have two very nice looking metal doors with different patterns. These are the two I'm looking at, one with a swirl pattern and one with a dotted pattern: Metal Battery Door Cover for Blackberry Curve 8900 (Black color) *::*8900*::*Blackberry* :: *Housing/Faceplate*::*Truesupplier - Blackberry Accessories & PDA Accessories wholesale Co. Metal Blackberry Curve 8900 Back battery door cover Black ::*8900*::*Blackberry*::*Housing /Faceplate*:: *Truesupplier - Blackberry Accessories & PDA Accessories wholesale Co. There are different variations on it such as this one: Metal Blackberry Curve 8900 Back battery door cover Silver *::*8900*::*Blackberry* ::*Housing/Faceplate*::*Truesupplier - Blackberry Accessories & PDA Accessories wholesale Co. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with these metal battery doors because I've been reading here that the leather ones found on True Supplier don't fit like OEM.

I was thinking about getting some sort of full phone screen protectors and I called BB and asked if they had a kiosk that installed the screen protector shields for you and they said all they did have an invisible shield kiosk where they would "install" it for you in under 20 minutes.but they only have covers for the front screen.I have a few questions before i consider buying one though.Which of the two is least noticeable, and which would you prefer.

Is Best Buy good for applying Invisible shield or other products simmilar to this? I know the iPhone has water sensors in almost every port and i want to make sure they don't turn orange and activate.When they apply the shield for you do you get to watch or do they do it in a back room somewhere?
Has anyone gotten this done and how has it turned out? Would you recommend getting the shield put on by Best Buy employees or DIY?I've never had any experience with the protectors that need water or some sort of liquid to be applied. I have put on some cheap screen protectors on my old 3GS and they worked great but i can't seem to find any protectors that cover both the front and back of the phone (sides would be nice too) that don't need liquid to adhere to the phone.
If anyone knows of a phone protector that covers both the front and back of the phone and can be applied without spray it would be extremely helpful. If there are any that include side protection too that would help.

I recently purchased & installed a invisible Shield protector on my Samsung SGH-T749 & it was a bit of a struggle to get it right. When it completely dried, I noticed several small black specks that were large enough to make a bump that can be felt with a fingernail & holds the film up a bit. I had purchased a couple of discounted IS packs for discontinued phones for $2.49 & looked at one of them & saw the same specks under the film. This sample had never been removed from the backing, but had specs on it's back side too. I emailed Zagg & tole them about the specks & got the following response. (Now, they do offer to replace the product, but it is apparent that they don't feel that the specks are their fault, or they don't believe me, as they don't mention the specs at all. I am not going to get mine replaced & am looking for an alternative.) BTW The credit card pre-charges & requiring me to return the "defective" one don't constitute a "courtesy replacement", in my mind. They called it an "installation difficulty!" Incidentally, the product shows a bit of "orange peal" texture that is not very attractive.
The ZAGG Team wrote, "I'm sorry to hear that your installation didn't go well. In general, our lifetime replacement guarantee only covers normal wear-and-tear issues, such as scratching and peeling, and typically does not cover installation difficulties, however, I am willing to extend a one-time courtesy replacement for you. To process your replacement request you will be asked to provide a credit or debit card. Your card will be charged a minimal shipping & handling fee. Additionally, your card will be pre-authorized for the retail value of the product you are replacing. You will have 25 days to return your original product. When we receive the original product back, the pre-authorized charge on your credit or debit card will be removed. Your card will be charged in full if the original product is not returned within 25 days".

Has anyone noticed with their invisible shield a vertical rainbow line? It appears on only white / light backdrops? It bothered me for a while so I bought and had a new one installed, sure enough a new one came up on the other side of the screen. Any opinions on how to avoid?

We are from Guadeloupe in French West Indies. Guadeloupe is a french overseas department, thus we are considered as european customers.
One of our N900 had his micro USB port broken like others cases in /t5/Maemo-Devices/Nokia-responds-to-reports-about-the-N900-micro-usb-port-getting/td-p/629019
So, 2 months ago, We went to the local Nokia Care Point (there is only one in Guadeloupe). We went today to this shop to have news about my mobile and, the guy explained me that the nokia's factory bring them up the phone and could'n repair it... He gave me back my phone, but he didn't give me back my poor little micro-USB port.
So, I have 2 questions :
First : what are the solutions proposed by Nokia for the customers in French West Indies (Guadeloupe and Martinique) ?
Second : why do you propose low quality services for us (comparatively with "normal" customers from France) ?

I will be getting this phone tomorow, and would like to know, is it safe to connect it via the 3.5mm cable to car head unit aux port, and use it as a music player.I have an now quite old Pioneer head unit, which doesn't have USB port, so playing music from CDs is a pain, and of course playing it through phone would make lifa a lot easier, but I don't want to damage it in the process.

I was able to charge my lumia 900 with my car (Toyota Prius 2010) USB until the latest firmware upgrade. Only catch was to use original cable came along with phone. It didn't accept any other micro USB cables. But after the latest update even the original cable doesn't work! All the cables works well to charge the phone when connected to laptop. I am having hard time using it as i frequently travel.Ideally i should be able to charge with any micro USB cable in the car. Could you guys suggest any workarounds or fixes?Not to mention my iPhone was perfect in USB recharge though it is a slow recharge.

On the logic board of a 3g and 3gs (i am not sure about the other models) there is a golden coloured tab that sticks out and when the board is in the housing it makes contact with the chrome bezel. I was wondering what the job of this little part is and what the implications would be if it did not do its job properly.
