[HTC EVO 3D] terwax:
Hey guys

I got this phone in August last year. I have bad luck with phones so I want to repair this one instead of getting new one. In the last 2.5 years, this is my 4th phone and I don't like upgrading phone all the time.

Earlier in January, I dropped my phone. Screen worked fine and everything but had a crack. I send for repair. The guy gives it to someone else without my permission to repair it. They repair it and since day 1 the top of screen is unresponsive. I turn screen off and on and then it works. The repair guy won't speak to me any more.

Now it has become permanent. It doesn't bother me as much but I hate it when random keys are being pressed. I think it's because of the pressure built on top?

I then again broke the screen accidently. So now I want to do it myself then get a defective screen and lose more money.

This is my first time changing the screen. To change the screen, do I follow same tutorial as outlined in the the sticky or is there something else? Also I'm confused as to what needs to changed. I don't know if they took something out of my phone and replaced it with something cheap. So do I simply replace the top layer of screen or the LCD? If the LCD, how would 3D work?

Also eBay is filled with screen replacement. If someone can give a link to a cheap deal that will fix my phone, it'd be great! Also the repair guy wrecked the housing of my phone. Is it replaceable?

Last but not least, should I sell the phone once fixed or I can continue to enjoy it? As in, will it break down again later down the road?
[HTC EVO 3D] lyon21:
Go on amazon.com and buy a digitizer and follow the instructions guide to replace it. I'm not sure if you can buy a new housing or not. Replacing the digitizer should fix your issue. Also, be very careful that you do not tear any ribbons when replacing the digitizer. If you tear one, your phone will be no good.

Also, you could always just warranty it a sprint store. 9 out of 10 times they don't look for the sticker that tells if the phone has been opened or not.

If you're in canada, look on your local Kijiji site. I've fixed HUNDREDS of iPhone and Android devices simply by advertising on Kijiji.

Look there, find someone who does iPhones and email him. He'll have the tools and expertise to properly repair your phone.

[HTC EVO 3D] terwax:
Sorry didn't tell about the phone.

It's from Rogers.

There is a sticker over the screw and when the tool is inserted, it voids it (the sticker goes in).

The guy won't reply to email and I really don't want to deal with another tech. So many just take any mobile when they have no clue and look up google to fix it! They won't even spend enough time to ensure it's ok because they have others to fix. I don't want to explain what happened between me and the tech guy as someone will post another "cool story bro" pic. Wasn't expecting that on this forums...

Anyway I doubt I can order from Amazon and having wasted so much money, I'd really appreciate if someone can link me to eBay for screen and digitizer (assuming it fixes the top of unresponsive screen)
[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
So where did you sent it off for repair in the first place? IMO, you paid for a service, and if that service wasn't completed correctly, you send it back and they do whatever they have to do to make it right.

I found someone on craigslist who said they will do it

They said it'd be done tomorrow. Takes them 1 week for parts to arrive.

Parts arrive, they go under renovation

2 weeks after, they open it up and say they don't have tools to finish it

1 week later I get it and it's repaired by someone else

Tell them problem, they say ask them since they repaired

The third party says its firmware problem and can't speak English well and ignore me

Few weeks forward

Take iPhone for jailbreak

Pick it up, it doesn't work properly

Bring it back, they refund exact same money on spot

They say it was already a problem and they didn't do anything wrong and can put old firmware back again

They say take it to Apple, they know more

Apple says the phone is finished

I DONT want to spend countless hours going back and forth. I just want to do things my way. The amount of time spent, if I just went to work instead, I'd have gotten a new phone instead.

if i root my phone, the screen issue isn't permanent, is it?

And this is the second time i root, after having permanent screen issue with HTC hero. So I'm a little worried. If it's safe to root without damaging screen, which root would be best? I just want to get rid of some Rogers programs as they're causing my battery drainage very fast. It's like 2% a minute! Also will a reset fix battery issues?

I am going to underclock my CPU to make battery life long.
[HTC EVO 3D] VonEsch:
Took Evo 4G in for repair a while back, the USB port wasn't charging right, but it would if you propped it up the right way. Anyhow sprint gives it back, won't charge at all, then they tell me I cracked the motherboard and I'll have to pay. My word against theirs, I ended up having to shell out 50.

[HTC EVO 3D] sitlet:
Why are you bumping? There really isn't much you can do, you should have sought a reputable repair shop, not just some guy on craigslist. If the guy isn't going to honor his work, you are pretty much out of luck.
[HTC EVO 3D] terwax:
Please read the thread.

I am NOT asking what to do with the guy. The questions were different.

And last question was, since my screen is unresponsive at top area, if I root, is it going to become permanent? I am going to change screen soon along with digitizer.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Rooting will neither make the issue better nor worse. If its hardware, only changing that hardware (digitizer assembly in your case), will affect your issue

thanks, that's what I was looking for an answer.

[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
Hello Lumia Users,

with the discovery of the Qualcomm mode we are finally able to unlock our devices as well. However the process of flashing involves always a certain risk: the risk of making the device unusable, the so called bricks. I created this thread to prevent huge amounts of posts discussing methods to revive bricked devices.

You use all the methods and techniques described in this thread at your own risk. We are not responsible for any damage or loss of waranty.

Before you post in this thread please gather some information first.

1. How dead is your phone:

Does it vibrate when you hold the on/off button?

If not: leave your phone on the originale charger (with the supplied cable) for 8 to 10 hours and try again.

Does it vibrate when you hold the volume-down+power+camer button?

Are you able to enter the Qualcomm mode?

2. Details about the flashing process

What operating system did you use to flash your phone?

If you are running Linux and you are able to enter Qualcomm mode connect your Lumia in Qualcomm mode. Create a list of the lumias partitions (fdisk -l) and include it in your post.

Do you remember the command you used to flash the phone?

Sometimes you can Access the previous commands on the command prompt by pressing the up-arrow on your keyboard

Do you remember the output of the dd command?

What ROM did you flash?

Did you perform a hardreset after flashing?

3. Additional info:

Do you have a Nokia Care Point or carrier store nearby?

Did you create dumps/backups of the partitions before flashing the ROM?

Have you ever used NCS or some other tools to flash firmware to the device?
[Nokia Lumia 800] wardoc22:
How bricked is my phone?

It vibrates. Connects to MAC osx and Windows. Will not connect in Ubuntu. Able to enter qualcomm disk mode, doesn't show up in ubuntu. Might be able to reflash it in mac osx though, or restore the partition I screwed up from an IMG file of that partition.

I used ubuntu to flash it. I accidentally flashed the 3rd partition of it. The command I used was

dd if=/Home/David/os-new.nb of=/dev/sdB

3

The output said something about copying over the .nb file correctly..

I used the full unlock rom by lucifier. Nothing wrong with me. My fault on the incorrect flashing.
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
The big question is: Are the other partitions intact? biktor_gj has uploaded some dumps over at the development thread. You could try to flash the sdX3 Partition in OSX. However I think it is strange that Ubuntu wont recognise the device. You can use the df command to get all connected devices on Ubuntu.
[Nokia Lumia 800] wardoc22:
Im pretty darn sure the other partitions are still intacted as I only flashed the 3rd partition.

I know about the DF command. Yea, it doesn't show up in ubuntu. :/

Also, are the dumps he uploaded for the lumia 710?
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
That is really weird. I see two realistic options here:

a) Download the sdb9.rar posted by biktor_gj and flash it as IMG file on OSX

or

b) Ask for a repair of the device.

I doubt it since he mentioned a 15GB partition. Do you own a Lumia 710?
[Nokia Lumia 800] wardoc22:
Yea, Tmobile agreed to send me in a new lumia 710.

I tried the df command in mac osx in terminal and the phone didnt show up. So I guess my only option is to try to revive it with an IMG of the 3rd partition of the device within disk utility. Since I am getting a new device anyways, might as well try to do whatever I can to contribute. ;)

Do you have a 710? Would you mind uploading an image file for the 3rd partition for me?
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
I only own a Lumia 800 (with a locked bootloader). However there is a recovery flash method for the Lumia 800. You could try to adapt this method for the Lumia 710.
[Nokia Lumia 800] wardoc22:
NCS won't work with a phone that have qualcomm bootloader. I have a qualcomm bootloader on my lumia 710.

I can only flash it with QSPT, but I can't figure out how to work it.
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
Some guys flashed their Qualcomm Lumia 800s with NCS wich resulted in an upgrade of their bootloader. According to you this is impossible with the unlocked phones so I guess you have to sent your device in for a repair.

The Images on NaviFirm sometimes contain IMGs of the partitions. You could also try your luck there.
[Nokia Lumia 800] MrGreenTea:
1. My Phone does not vibrate. I charged it the whole night. I can't enter Qualcomm Mode.

2. I used Ubuntu 12.04 with dd if="FullUnlock-os-new.nb" of = "/def/sdd9". There was no output. I used the ROM provided here: ROM. Yes, I performed a Hardreset.

3. No, I don't think so. Yes, i created an image backup of every partition. I tried to recover my phone with the NCS. It did not find my Lumia.

My phone worked like a charme. Yesterday I installed Battery Status and started the Task Manager. My phone crashed, and after a restart it lagged. So I rebooted and now it won't start anymore. I think about sending it to Nokia, but maybe you can help me first.
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
If it does not turn on you can only get a replacement from your carrier or send it in for a repair. If you manage to enter the Qualcomm mode it would be possible to reflash the partitions, but I guess thats impossible since it wont turn on.
[Nokia Lumia 800] rbusa:
My phone doesn't vibrate too. I also noticed that probably all circuits used to charge the battery are actually driven by software (I used small LED to test it, after 10h of charging no light at all)

I also tried plugging in the USB charger without battery inside the device. no luck

Bootloader unlock through NCS went smooth, for dd'ing I used Windows 7 Home Premium x64(6.1.7601) with admin CLI

Command: dd if=c:\lum710rom.nb of=\\.\g:

...wrote about 1100 kBytes of data, then stopped and outputted errors
[Nokia Lumia 800] MrGreenTea:
Funny thing is, after like 5 hours plugged into my computer, it started the qualcomm mode and now I am reflashing the backed up partitions. Do I have to perform a hard reset after the reflash?
[Nokia Lumia 800] rbusa:
I think you should do a hard reset. ;)

I will also try having the phone connected for longer period of time, maybe that should be the solution to our problems! :)
[Nokia Lumia 800] MrGreenTea:
Yes, you can try that :) and I recommend using ubuntu for flashing with dd. You can install it easily with wubi and uninstall it as easy from within Windows.

EDIT: Just as I wanted to say it didn't work, it started :) I am so ****ing happy now, you would not believe :D
[Nokia Lumia 800] rogelioc93:
I was trying to downgrade my Lumia 710 and I got this error

I can power it, but it stays in Nokia

It vibratess when I hold the volume-down+power+camera button but i cant hard reset my phone

What's Qualcomm mode?

I used windows to flash it

I can't remember commands
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
I would always recommend to use a Linux Distribution in order to apply the unlock. Windows has sometimes problems with partitioned removable devices. Did you manage to boot up in Qualcomm mode? I assume the Windows dd command wrote to the wrong partition.

Always perform a hard reset after manipulating the OS partition.

Does your device enter Qualcomm mode when you hold Vol Down+Power to power it on? You should be able to see it either popping up in your Explorer or in the Device Manager. Another method to hard reset the phone is:

1. Switch the phone off.

2. Press and hold the Volume Down, Power and Camera buttons at the same time.

3.When the phone vibrates release the Power button but keep the Camera and Volume Down buttons held for a further five seconds.
[Nokia Lumia 800] rbusa:
Well, I am not able to boot up in Qualcomm mode anymore...
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
If your phone won't power on you can either bring it to a Care Point and ask for reflashing or send it in for a repair.
[Nokia Lumia 800] Czechnolog:

Done, Still nothing

No

Are you able to enter the Qualcomm mode?

No

Sometimes you can Access the previous commands on the command prompt by pressing the up-arrow on your keyboard

Do you remember the output of the dd command?

What ROM did you flash?

Did you perform a hardreset after flashing?

I was using Windows 8, but have Linux Also.

I completed the steps in vova1609 's thread: How to upgrade to Nokia DLOAD

it was all fine I did what it said on the thread mentioned above unplugged from me computer and the phone went off straight away and hasn't come back on since.

I don't if the battery has been completely drained when I've been following them steps and it hasn't charged while its been plugged into the computer and as soon as i've unplugged it its gone off and hasn't got enough power to tell the phone to charge as that happend to Lumia's before Nokia did the battery fix

3. Additional info:

Do you have a Nokia Care Point or carrier store nearby?

Nearest One is about an hour on the train away

Did you create dumps/backups of the partitions before flashing the ROM?

Did't get that far but no

Have you ever used NCS or some other tools to flash firmware to the device?

No, but I have used NCS many times when I had a Lumia 800 with no problem
[Nokia Lumia 800] Skrypek:
Try Programming->Recover instead of Refurbish in NCS. It will instruct you to hold VolUp while powering on, and that should result in a short vibration followed by:

a) If you have the proper Nokia DLOAD botloader, NCS should start flashing the phone.

b) If you have the nasty Qualcomm bootloader, Windows will ask if you wanna format a new removable drive - it is crucial that you don't, or you will brick your phone totally. In this case however you are still screwed, cause you can't flash with NCS.
[Nokia Lumia 800] kingcartwright:
anyone have an ideas what I should say to the store If I try and take it back?
[Nokia Lumia 800] Skrypek:
Tell them it stopped working and you don't know why. You set an alarm and went to bed, and you woke up late for work cause the phone was dead. You tried charging it but it wouldn't start.

[Nokia Lumia 800] CaLaBeRa:
Hi everyone!

In my case my Lumia 710 works and it's able to enter in the qualcomm mode(by pressing volume up and powering it on). The problem is that since I flashed the RainbowMod the NSS Pro doesn't detect my mobile(neither the Nokia Care Suite). I haven't done any backup and I would like to be able to install more ROMS or at least go back to the original firmware.

Thank you!
[Nokia Lumia 800] mo_12:
1. How dead is your phone:

Does it vibrate when you hold the on/off button?

Yes, it vibrates when I hold down the power button for 10+ seconds. After I release the power button there is a 1-2 second delay, then the phone vibrates a long vibration but does nothing after.

Also does short vibration when plugged to PC and begins to install drivers. Ends up saying USB Input Device but I cannot find it in device manager or my computer or through Zune.

.

Does it vibrate when you hold the volume-down+power+camer button?

No, I do not think so. It vibrates like above, but I think that is because the power button is being held down.

2. Details about the flashing process

What operating system did you use to flash your phone?

Linux (Ubuntu), entered Quallcomm mode and flashed rainbowmod 1.4 and amssadsp.img_part3.

Do you remember the command you used to flash the phone?

sudo dd if=./amssadsp.img_part3 of=/dev/sdb3

sudo dd if=./os-new.nb of=/dev/sdb9

Do you remember the output of the dd command?

sudo dd if=./amssadsp.img_part3 of=/dev/sdb3 - Output stated the file size transferred and the transfer speed (~220 mb/s)

sudo dd if=./os-new.nb of=/dev/sdb9 - Output stated the file size transferred and the transfer speed (~1.5 mb/s)

What ROM did you flash?

RainbowMod v 1.4 and amssadsp.img_part3

Did you perform a hardreset after flashing?

Tried to but did not work; no response except for long vibration after letting go of all three buttons (would not vibrate while they were all held down).

3. Additional info:

Do you have a Nokia Care Point or carrier store nearby?

Not sure.

Did you create dumps/backups of the partitions before flashing the ROM?

No

Have you ever used NCS or some other tools to flash firmware to the device?

No

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[Nokia Lumia 800] ChrisKringel:
Are you sure that you have flashed it to the right partition? Have you tried to redownload and reflash lumiatrix? Could be that something got screwed up during the write process.

Have you tried deinstalling and reinstalling the drivers? Have you tried another version of NSS?

Its hard to tell what went wrong. You can try to check the Unlock Thread for a dump of the third partition and reflash that (assuming that you are still able to enter Qualcomm mode).
