I pulled my Universal out of my pocket on Saturday and I have a crack down the screen on the left side.
Does anyone know a good store with Universal parts? I found a store that will repair it for me for US$250, but that is a bit too much. Assuming the screen is US$100 - US$150, I'll do it myself. I can still use it, but I really want to fix this because I love it very much.
If someone has a broken Universal that has a good LCD / Digitizer assembly, I'll buy it from you for US$100 or whatever you think is fair.
screen available on ebay
I've seen them on ebay, but they aren't cheap, the combo screen digitizer is around $200. If you want to do it yourself, there is the factory service manual on the ftp site, it's an illustrated step by step guide for disassembly and reassembly.
here is a link for the manual
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Manuals/confidential
I would say good luck, but the manual looks pretty good so you should't need it, just make sure you use an anti static pad and antistatic gloves or grounding strap.
I replaced the screen in an iPaq 3850 (pda-only) a few years ago, so I'm not really afraid of doing it... I just need to find the part in the first place! haha
Thanks for your input.
Just search for "lcd qtek 9000" on ebay and you'll find plenty of sellers of screens. I bought one myself for $180 a while ago. Worked like a charm.
From the XDA-Wiki Click on "Look up the HTC part number". then get the part number, or take apart your phone if you want to be sure. Search for the part number on google.com, froogle.google.com and ebay.
searching with froogle for TD028STEB1 I just found one on ebay. BuyItNow price of $60 with $19 shipping (plus a free screen guard). I expect that if you look a little more you may be able to get one slightly cheaper.
edit: opps I looked the one for Magician, Wizard, Apache, but you get the idea.
Looked for ACX526AKM-7 and found one store on ebay that sells it. Oddly enough the same product from the same store without that serial number in the name is between $4 and $14 cheaper (depending on bidding or buy it now).
The one without is $149.99 starting bid ($159.99) and the one with the serial in the name is $169.00 buy it now (seller "i like parts"). Comes with a tool and screenprotector.
Hi all,
I'm pleased to announce the availability of replacement casings for the HTC Prophet (I-mate JamIn, Qtek S200, XDA Neo or dopod 818pro), in a range of colours (light grey, dark grey, blue, black, pink ... see the attached photo).
So, if your Prophet has been damaged, or you are just looking for a change of style, feel free to PM me. The faceplates (front, camera and battery panel) are ONLY US$15 plus shipping (the delivery cost depends where in the world you want it shipped to). Your Prophet will look like new!
The complete case (front, battery, camera panels, mid section, buttons, and windows sticker) are US$30 plus shipping. The stylus and front button panel are sold separately.
I can also offer replacement batteries, chargers, screen protectors etc. Let me know what you need and I'll see what I can do.

I don't have a website address just yet. I should have one up and running within the next two weeks.
The website will offer just about every replacement part available for just about every pda / mobile phone. However, it will take quite a long time to get all the inventory onto the site. I'll let you know as soon as it's operational.
EDIT: new website address is http://www.phoneystore.com

The model shown in the picture only has the front and back panels (includes the battery cover / camera area). If you would also like a mid section, a stylus and a keypad, it will cost $20. I have attached a picture but it's not very clear, so I will upload a new one in a day or so.
These covers are not sold as the "genuine" brand covers, however they are usually made in the same factory. All products are checked before they are shipped to ensure they are good quality.
1. Are they made of the same material as the original cover? (hard metal)
2. Do you accept Paypal? How's the payment done?
3. What will it cost for shipping to norway (europe)?
Do you have a white one? non silvered. I mean, something like apple.
Yeah, what is the paying method?
THANKS!

1. They are made from plastic (my Dopod 818pro is also plastic, so I'm not sure why yours is hard metal?)
2. Yes, I accept PayPal. Once I know your exact address (or at least the city/town) I can give you a full quote on postage. PM me with your details.
3. To Norway is approximately US$8 by AirMail.

Payment is via PayPal.

well, mine is made from metal too
The front on mine is metal, cause I have dropped it and it is dented, and I managed to bend it back somewhat. The battery cover is plastic. I am not sure about the camera cover, I think it is plastic and some pain chip is wearing off. So seller, could you clearify:
Front piece is metal or plastic.
Does the $15 set include the chrome parts? (the 2 circle on back, front speaker, and 2mp lettering on back).
What is the price for the keypad, and what color choice do you have for them. I've seen silver ones, black with one chrome button, black with 3 chrome buttons.
If you could edit your first post to clarify, would be helpful thanks. I am also looking for the no carrier logo/lettering covers.
Yes, my Qtek S200 front panel is definitely metal.
The photo you post for the front, mid, back, battery cover plus stylus seems to be for O2 xda II mini/Qtek S100/htc Magician/imate Jam... Please confirm that you also have the same package fit for O2 xda Neo/Qtek S200/htc prophet/imate Jamin.
What would be the shipping cost to Hamilton, New Zealand?

I have updated the first post with additional photos.
You were right. The front plate is metal, but the backing plates are plastic. The $15 set includes the chrome plating on the camera etc.
The $20 set is basically the same as the $15 set but includes a stylus and is in a nicer box.
I checked with the supplier and a full case is available (see first post) including front and back plates, stylus, buttons (camera, power, volume, comm manager, front panel with three chrome buttons), windows mobile sticker for the back. However it is more expensive. US $30 for the set.

You're right. The photo is for the XDA II, however I also have the same pack for the Neo/S200/Prophet/Jamin. If you don't need the stylus, the $15 face plates are better value.
I also have a cool stylus available. It's a stylus with a pen inside (the tip of the stylus unscrews to reveal the pen). Is quite useful when you can't find a pen around. It's US $7 (picture attached).
Postage to New Zealand (and almost all destinations) is US $8. The postage is only ever higher if you live in hard to reach places.
Hi All,
Housing Face Plate Black or Gray for HTC Universal available at Shope2.com

Cheers!
Anyone sussed out what currency the site's in?
If it's £/UK, that is some insanely high pricing, but I doubt it's in £.
If it's $/US, I reckon that's still over the odds for a 2nd hand casing, I paid that price for a 2nd hand M5000 casing that also contains a working phone.
If it's Yen, please let me know, as I'll definitely buy one to fix mine as I've cracked the casing and the hinge is a tiny bit dodgy.

The currency is in US$. What do you think guys? Is it worth it to replace at this amount? I'll put on hold first my request.
Note: They are selling only not included the service to replace the housing, if service is included then may be i will consider

cnn.cn has a great replacement screen, I bought one from them a few weeks ago - good price and a very fast delivery.
Housings for Uni are around $29 on Ebay or for a bit extra with a matching keypad.
Something like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...5&_trkparms=algo=SI&its=I&itu=UCI&otn=4&ps=42
Reluctantly I have to sell my beloved Universal, mainly because I have bought another CE device (Smartbook G138), and I find it not very easy to maintain two such powerful devices with overlapping functions. It would be good to find a new home for this buddy. I used to be a collector of small devices but now real life (work and family) compels me to go frugal and simple and stay focused on practical matters.
General condition (appearance only): 7/10, w/ normal wear, no broken parts or cracks or lines, etc
Screen: Super bright (i need to set to the lowest backlight most of the time ) and with NO problems (e.g. dimming, yellowish, lines, etc.) at all! w/ scratch-proof screen protector on.
Casing: The device was originally in European silver casing, but then I changed it to O2 Exec black, while keeping the silver keyboard with red backlight, which looks very cool to me (like a volcano in the dark )
RAM: And most importantly it has already been upgraded to a whopping 128MB of RAM, which DOES make a clear difference in performance than the original 64MB.
All other features: phone, wifi, bluetooth, camera, mic, speaker, d-pad, card slot are fully operational with no issue.
ROM: It is now running the rock solid Tomal v8.9 (128 version), which is free of issue of using wifi WPA found in the older builds (e.g. 8.1, 8.5)
Power supply: one 4800mAh (Cameron Sino) and one 1600mAh (Momax). Both hold very good charge, esp. the Momax one which was bought just two months ago and imho it's the best quality battery I've ever used.
AC charger included.
Shipping: will sell worldwide from Hong Kong.
One issue - lately the post regulations have been tightened in order to follow the latest ICAO policies, such that all rechargeable batteries are prohibited to ship via airmail. So my suggestion is to send the device via airmail (EMS is preferred), and the two batteries via surface mail (generally taking ~4 weeks). You only need to pay for the airmail part, and I will cover the cost of surface mail.
(probably express couriers are okay here, but i have to check).
I still have the original european packaging including the box so if you prefer I can pack everything using the original packaging, which I think is the safest.
Price & payment: I am asking for 150 Euros (net price, shipping not included). Paypal only.
PM me if interested. Will respond within the same day (GMT+8). Pictures can be provided upon request.
Thanks!!
Any pictures
I will buy it. I really need this. Please PM me what info is needed or send the invoice to [email protected]
Move to marketplace
There is a dedicated section for selling, you´ll have more chances there.
Items sold. Thank you for your interest.
Hey, sorry, Orb3000, I didn't realize there is a dedicated marketplace, and I've seen some sale posts in this sub-forum so I did the same.
Well, we live and learn =]
remember next time ! =]
Thanks for the echo
I lost my s-pen recently for my SM-P600 so I ordered a replacement. It was quoted as being a EJ-PN910BWEGWW.
However what has arrived does not appear to be this.
1. No box - the picture of that part number is like this http://www.fonejoy.com/official-sam...ite-2in1-stylus-pen-inductive-pen-note-4.html (this isn't the site I ordered from) . Instead I got just the pen in a bag in an envelope. I have heard of retailers removing packaging to save delivery cost.. but read on ...
2. Pen flexes - as soon as I picked up the pen, it feels different to an official one (from memory of 2 weeks ago!). It flexes, and indeed even the button mid way down starts to come apart.
3. Pressure Sensitivity - it isn't. I use pressure sensitivity to draw/write. I've used the note range for 3+ years. This pen is NOT pressure sensitive. It draws with one pressure only rather than the 256/512 of an official s-pen. I've tried in lecture notes (standard pencils, pressure sensitivity on) and s-pen
My conclusion is that this pen is a fake.
Can anyone advise other checks/things to look out for? anything I may have forgotten/missed on pressure sensitivity?
Do samsung take any interest in fakes & retailers? Ideally I'd like to report the retailer to them as suspicious - but not if it's going to take years of my life going through a useless customer service nightmare...
Note this was a mobile outlet in the UK that deals in online and I've used once or twice in the past for small things, not an ebay purchase. Why? because I wanted a proper s-pen back!
Meanwhile can anyone recommend a "known good" source of replacement s-pens in/to the UK. I was somewhat suspicious of many of the ebay sellers. the closest I've found so far is that site above, but no idea if they are reputable.
I won't mention the retailer yet...
Regards
Nigel Jones

Hi Nigel,
I certainly believe that you've gotten a fake. According to the ad you posted, the dealer promises satisfaction guaranteed. Try returning it, and if that falls, contact Samsung. By the way, did you order the right pen? You're right-If you ordered a pen for the SGN 10.1 (2014), it should be very solid and should function well.
Anyway, I don't know if this dealer delivers to the UK or not, but I've not I had any trouble with eBay. You might try them. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
Blessings,
Bob Christopulos
