So my Slide got a bunch of water in it (lemonade, to be specific). I let it dry for a few days and now it boots (albeit with a new battery) but the microSD card is not recognized.
Everything else is fine with it, surprisingly.
Any ideas? Parts to get or whatnot?
Sorry to hear this but maybe sdcard had been damaged, try replacing it with a new one?

The microsd card is fine, it works in my Vibrant and microsd -> SD adapter.
Was it mike's hard lemonade? The slide is small and doesn't handle its alcohol so well

Tried a different microsd card which works (<4gb seems to be the cutoff), now I can finally get off a nightly from September
So your problem is now resolved?

Hey guys, I got some questions.. Someone told me that for 90$ HTC would replace my Slide & give me a new one. The questions are:
will they replace it anywhere in the world?
will they replace it even if I lost the original accesories?
will they replace it even if it's not in good conditions?
where do I gotta ask for the replacement phone?

HTC or even T-Mobile will replace free if its still under warranty. If not then maybe you have to pay to get it replaced/fixed. As far as condition... Is the screen messed up? Scratches don't matter. If its scratched up then they'll still replace it. But if its cracked then that's on you.

Thanks for answering.. The screen isn't cracked, OH but the screen is kinda separated from the keyboard (can still perfectly slide, everything works, but it has a gap between the top middle and the bottom middle), another problem's that I live in Paraguay (south americ, no T-mo or official HTC stores here, I bought this phone on a trip to the US).. How can I contact HTC and find out more about a replacement phone? And how do I know if it still has warranty?:/.. OH, and will they replace it even if I don't have the original accessories?

I think warranty is like 6 months. you have to call T-Mobile. They will give you a new phone. It doesn't matter if you have accessories or not because they will trade just the phone itself. No battery, battery cover or accessories. the just want the phone.

If something's not working (and you're not at fault, which you're obviously not here), that means it's time to call up T-Mobile customer support and exchange your G2.
Thanx

I am having the same problem all of a sudden
Mines functions properly now..all I did was give the speaker a few taps n it started back working
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
I saw the Teardown photos of the G2 the other day.
After seeing those, it's clear why this happens. The speaker is basically one piece attached to the back plastic panel with simple contacts built into it. The mating contacts are soldered to the mainboard. When they assemble the phone the contacts just press together. So really it can be very susceptible to dust, drops, bumps, or even slight moisture.
I work in a semi dusty environment though, and I haven't had any issues with mine. But with winter here now I'm sure it will see a lot more moisture so I'm crossing my fingers.
Ok, my phone was working fine, but just now the phone screen turned blaack, ive rebooted it, replaced the battery, slid it open, charged it, NOTHING WORKS!, i NEED it tomorow, is there ANY way to fix FAST!? HELP!
Your flex cable ribbon that connects mainboard and screen is broken/ripped.
Replacement cable cost $60 and you must order at least two of those. Then obiously replace it. Tho it's out of stock now.
Tough love, hate sliders now.

Hahaha lmfao...
but seriously the flex is your problem here, it happened to me as well and I had to buy a broken slide on ebay ($58) and took the flex from there, I took the keyboard too cause it had the new one with the different zero xD

My fone did the same thing, I got a free warranty replacement and got the newer slide.

Any chance of there being a SD slot inside this shell? I would be willing to open to put it in of so. Just don't want to open it for no reason.
Sent from my DROIDX
no, there is a toshiba nand emmc.
I think there is no option to make a mod like this, because 32gb is a nand memory
I was referring to the att model having the SD card slot and wanted to know if anyone with a sprint model has opens it to find a SD slot just chilling inside.

Lol that'd be hilarious
I suppose if it does use similar circuitry, then their could be solder points, but you'd need to bend backwards to solder a good connection and get everything working.

There is this thread about a sim card mod for the sprintt ls970, but I don't know if any of the pictures are actually ours. The one video in thread is labeled as being from a Photon 4G.

Photon 4G had a SIM card slot, as well as a SD slot.
Honestly I don't think it's doable on this phone.

I opened mine a while back due to all the camera rattle complaints to see what was going on in there. There is no removable card.
Look it up, it's been out for awhile.

Getting the optimus later today. Is there anything I should know before hand?
What rom/mod/tweaks would you guys recommend? I used to own the evo 4g
Its new and in a way hesitant cause there isnt a sd card slot or removable battery
I love this phone. I can't really speak on any of the roms but even stock it rocks! It does have some issues with some Bluetooth receivers though but other than that I have had no problems.

Had my Eco for over 2 years and loved it. I've had the LGOG for about 2 weeks and love it. Plenty memory on board so I won't miss the sd card. I'm rooted and unlocked running stock zv9. Just waiting for a JB rom or update. I use an LG blue tooth headphone every day and have no issues.
