Sorry guys ... I've spent about 2 hours searching here and on tekguru for a post I saw that had a pictorial step by step as to how to strip off the naff earbuds and solder a 3.5mm female jack in place so's you can use decent headphones.
....... anyone know where I saw it ?
Thanks
many posts where lost in a db crash some time agoe maybe that thread was MIA aswell
you can get a 2.5mm to 3.5mm converter pretty cheap if you dont want to canabalize your headset
Thanks Rudegar .... but I got one of them converters - it's great in that I can use some Sony clip over ear headphones and get great sound, but I wanna be able to answer calls. I saw the relevant post complete with pics just a couple of days ago and now can't seem to trace it. A poster called Cojones said he was going to post full details but I think that was on the xdadevelopers board and it don't seem like he did.

I have no idea how much a motherboard would cost - fire a price and if it makes sense for me, I'm interested as my headphone jack is gone and I can't find it on its own.
Nice little store
If you would like to replace your main board there is a store by my house that has every peice that you need to build a new one. I live in taiwan. The parts range from $1.00-10.00. So, if you are in need of a special part let me know, maybe I can help.
Hi Cobb,
That would be great - I'm really looking for a headphone jack port as mine's gone and I had to eliminate it as the Uni was under the impression I had headphones connected at all time.
If you can check the price of this out, it would be cool.
Tks.
Sure

It is around $1.00-2.00 US. Just to let you know I used the female headphone connection from my Walkman. I will try to post a complete price list for the universal.
The parts are really cheap here, but sending them is not. Does anyone have any ideas how I could send replacement parts, and keep the price reasonable.
Any part that you want to replace should be less than $5.00 with exception to the screen, and the external housing.
For those of you with a broken USB female jack. While replacing mine I noticed that USB's are pretty standard. There seems to be two common types, I used the one from a 4port usb hub. I not had any problems yet.
I hope this helps. The prices I listed are for a single piece.
I have a full unit, everything is fine except for a usb connector that is FUBAR, Looking to get rid of the entire unit so I can buy a new one, shoot me a PM if anyone would like to purchase it or are selling a working unit.

Hi Cobb, how about that price list??? Just my guess, if parts are SO cheap, no transportation can be expensive!!! LOL
Anyways, what I´m looking for, is a new MoBo, you have any prices for them???
Thanks in advance, and congrats to all knowledged and not so knowledged ppl in this forum.

I've made a new thread on the marketplace section too, you can write there or send me a PM. This is the link:

Hey guys need some help, need to fix the microphone for a friends phone and i cant find any on Ebay or Google, so if someone can help me find the part, i will be greatfull
thanks
Look for the smallest eletret SMD microphone. That should fit. If it is just the microphone and not the circuitry.
Mouser and Digikey have a bunch and I bet you can find a one-off at octopart.
Hi everyone,
Does someone know how have to link separate wires from the headset to the jack? My headset is broken and I am trying to repair it but don't find sheme
where I can see how the wires are linked to the jack.
I have a picture of the jack and the cable. If you have need to see it, write me.
Thanks in advance!

I tried, but there are no for HTC Wildfire and the cables are not the same.
Hey everyone,
My headphone jack is being problematic, the left channel tends to drop out depending on the rotation of the plug.
Does anyone know where to source a new one from? There isn't much on eBay.
Cheers.
Hey there,
I've got exactly the same problem here and replaced the main flex cable by yesterday (to fix another screen issue), so i thought "why not replace the audio jack as well?"...
Looking for a replacement I found this:
... YouTube Video "How to clean out your iPhone headphone jack "
(sry, can't post links or vids.)
For now I only tried the tape-method... and wow! it is already much better!
I'll keep on cleaning and feedback what improvement I finally have reached.
Greets,

I have tried the cotton bed method and it seems better...
Cheers for the link.
