How to fix volume slider? - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

When fixing my loose stylus I managed to break the small spring loaded volume slider. It appears that when I disassembled I lost a part that fits between the slider button and the electronic component on the circuit board. Does anyone know if there is a removeable part here that can be lost? Anyone want to donate one. Or lastly how about a place to buy one? Thanks.

Motorola Defy irreversible damage? Please follow.

hi all.
Please, don't shout me! I would like as much help as possible for my damage :crying:. I am concerned, i don't know what else I can do!
Unfortunately, while I mounted the new digitizer to my defy I mistakenly blew up a piece of the motherboard. the piece in question is the power/lock button.
here's how the power and volume buttons are normally presented and my power button is presented on the motherboard.
I looked all over the web for repairing this damage or to buy directly a new motherboard. the problem is that on the web are not for sell replacement parts like this
I also suggested to bring it to assistance putting all the small pieces of broken button inside the phone to make it look like a fault, but it's clearly visible that the phone is half worn considering the new digitizer and the screws are stripped so you can see clearly that was disassembled and tampered...can anybody help me?

It's broken so needs replacement with a new 'tact' switch by soldering a replacement in it's place. I repair similar equipment and know it's possible to do although not a home diy repair unless you're skillful with a soldering iron and can buy the replacement part. I would hope a phone repair workshop could help with this.
Tact switches come in all shapes and sizes so you need to find a suitable one.
Sorry it's not much help.
edit: This site sells them:http://stellatech.com/site_stellatech/motorola-defy-mb525-power-switch-(electrical),a,en,811504.html
and these on Ebay look similar (but only a quess) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/10pcs-4-7...al_Components_Supplies_ET&hash=item460b40052a

I never thought of being able to fix something like that The important thing is that one can fix this damage and that's really enough now there's nothing left for me to order those buttons and to solder it on the mobo. I have found those momentary tact buttons that you linked from ebay on amazon.com so I can ship it in my country I have the uncle of my friend who has a soldier station that can do the job thank you so much for the answer, you've given back my hope :victory:
and sorry for my bad english!

When soldering the new part be very careful! - do not heat the pins of the tact switch for too long or you'll possibly damage the new tact switch. These items are very small and the heat from the soldering iron can damage if you keep soldering the metal legs too long. Good luck!

most likely you have also damaged other parts of the board. replacing the power button may or may not fix it.
consider ordering a new/used board from china websites.

[Q] Replacement parts

Hello all I was wondering if anyone could help me in finding some replacement parts for my oppo find 7a. So what happened was the very tip of the 3.5mm audio jack on my POS headphones stuck in my phone while the rest of it came out. No matter what I did I couldn't get it out. It prevented me from making calls or obviously using the jack for headphones.
So I took it apart. I successfully removed it but in putting it back together the little button that actuates the power switch was not in place so I couldn't control the power button. I went back in and managed to break it off. One tiny little piece of plastic and the entire phone is now useless. So I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction of ordering a replacement part. I think I will have to order an entirely new little circuit board. I haven't found anything on Oppo's site, could anyone help me out?

I'd like to know this same information.
I have a bad usb/supply circuit board and i can't find any place to buy it.
Anyone who has got news on this? Myself, I am looking for a new cover for the camera (as in, the glass that is right above the lense sitting inside the back cover).
I found some parts on Ali Express (look for Original LCD Display +Digitizer touch Screen+frame by GD Technology Co., Ltd; the board's software unfortunately does not allow me to post full URLs yet).
In my case, I am not sure if the “frame” advertised above actually includes that little glass cover, or if there is an additional part I am looking for.

I broke the side panel and lost the volume button

After dozens of falls the side panel (with the buttons) got dislodged a bit in the edge. So I tried to remove it in order to straighten it and glue it. Don't ask how but I dropped by accident the volume button in the toilet.... Now I am missing the volume button and the side panel is very bent to the point I am not sure if I will be able to straighten it perfectly. Apart from that the phone works like a charm despite all the accidents!
Where do I find the volume button and the side panel if possible? Thanks for any heads up!

You can find a replacement housing on ebay here
Thank you for the fast reply! I also found these cases which also include buttons and they are quite cheap. Do you know if they are any good though?

This guys also sells them:
http://www.electron-parts.com/front-housing-cover-for-huawei-ascend-p6-black_p24620.html
It seems that the side panel is not seperate with the front panel and not meant to be removed and/or installed again.

Missing parts

Can somebody identify this part that goes behind the volume and power buttons and gives it a clicky sound and feel. I accidentally lost it while replacing the housing. Hopefully I can find this part online so I could purchase it. Thanks

Question Power button metal clip. Replace? Where to buy it?

Hello guys.
I bought a new LCD assembled with frame, and new power button/fingerprint sensor.
All components are back in place and seem to work, but the power button does not always return in its position, especially when pressed on the side and not perfectly in the center. Sometimes it remains pressed causing reboot and bootloops. I had exactly the same issue with the previous frame and button, so I think the new components are not defective.
I think instead that the metal clip that holds the button in place and makes the spring effect for returning it in position (see pics) has lost elasticity.
What do you think about it?
I couldn't find the spare part. Could you point me to some dealer (maybe on Aliexpress/ebay)?
Thanks
