Default [Q] X10 Mini PRo vibrator

Hi there

Im wondering if anyone has had their vibrator stop working for the X10 Mini Pro? And if so do you know where to get one? And where theres a disassembly guide?

Mine seemed to stop a couple of months ago. Havent really been too bothered about it, but since Ive found out how to access the service menu to test it, it appear that mine has died, and wondering how quick/easy it is to fix

It should be under warranty, so that'll be the easiest route (apart from losing your phone for an unspecified amount of time...)

Could you explain how to test the vibrator? I have lost vibration on mine, though I think I have somehow disconfigured it.

Yeah but I rooted and debranded it so byebye warranty. Its not too much of a problem though. Just worried about a phone call or a text I may not hear lol.

Anyway. Service menu:

menu, back, back, menu, back, menu, menu, back on lockscreen. NOTE: it doesnt work if you try entering it using lockbot lockscreen. Default one does though. Service tests, then Vibrator.

I read your thread the other day. Thats pretty much the same way mine has "died" (most apps wanting to vibrate when it does something)

isn't it possible to revoke the rooting and branding? at least the branding should be equal for the se repair team (i think).

yey ! just like Iphone, you reinstall the original fw by SEUS and thay don't know you rooted it before.
Or just disassemble your phone and replace with the new one ! (i do it with my Nokia E63 ! it's very easy!)
You may wanna see this
try it with your own risk ! lol
