kaiser repair problem

[stolli]

so i cracked my LCD a couple weeks back..today i recieved a replacment LCD from htclcd.com ...followed the instructions from the site..now i turn on my phone..and everything works perfectly..exept it cant find a signal anymore...seems to recognize the sim card...everything else works fine..just no signal...where could the problem lie? any suggestions? thanks in advance!

I would be very suprised if the lcd has caused this issue, have you tried a manual network selection yet?

[mikiort]

It is likely that you have accidently disconnected or damaged antenna or connection to the antenna. I'd try to disassemble, examine visually that all parts are OK and reassemble the phone.

[stolli]

thats that i was thinking..but i dont know where the antenna is located in the phone so i dont even know where to begin to look

Hi stolli,
please let me know if you could repair your phone I have the same breakdown for the same reasons.

thank you

[stolli]

is there a way to replace the keyboard or fix the problem somehow?

It may just be the Keyboard FPC connector is not inserted firmly enough. See pages 21 and 33 of the manual.

Hi, it seems that all lugs looks good, but it is not easy to see if contacts are OK, Wlan, GPS, Bluetooth are OK but not GSM :confused:
I tried to connect via VOIP, voip is connected but i always have no services??????

[stephlight]

green led is flashing, is it for GSM, wifi or dial?

did you insert the lugs from the battery side first? the contacts are the gold pieces...if they are intact they should be fine..when you put the tilt backtogether did you put it together firmly, tighting all the bolts? also make sure flight mode isnt on

Yes, I also slightly recovered "lugs" that looks a bit twisted.

Do you with one is used for GSM?

also make sure flight mode isnt on


I changed several times mode phone to flight to test the line but still nothing.

I will work in Paris tomorrow, I'll test the gsm signal will be better , but on my other phone with the same Sim all is good.

Thanks.

the reason why the lugs are neceassy is to hold the casing firmly down so the gold connecters touch...make sure that the casing is tightened firmly down..and maybe lift the gold connecters on the main casing a little bit so they stick out more (thats what i did)..make sure not to break them tho..

[stephlight]

The problem must come an other part, the lugs are good.
I had great difficulty connect to GSM in Paris yesterday.
I have disassembled it again checked and reassembled but nothing new.

thanks for your help.

I killed my Kaiser by flashing a Touch Diamond ROM to it.
Sent it to repair service and they say the Mainboard needs to be replaced,but the price for repair is ultragious :eek:.
I realy need the device,it was a big help in my confused life style.
Can anyone tell me how can i fix it myself. Or where i can buy a mainboard. Or where can i send the device to repair for a cheaper service?
Thanks in advance for all your help guys.

Some of the keys on my keyboard are dead, any clue? Disassembled several times with no luck...

Doh... looks like the keys are gone.

WOW! It works, when I gave up! Ironic! :DDD

Ok, so if there happens to be others with the same issue.

Make sure when you connect the golden keyboard connector that the black thin line on it gets positioned exactly where the brown lock ends.
