¿USB C design flaw? - Nokia 7.2 Questions & Answers

Does this phone have the same design flaw as all the other nokias? Does de USB C have some movement when it is inside the port? It should be totally fixed!

I don't think that's the case with the 7.2 - mine doesn't wobble at all!
Rather, it's fixed quite firmly in place.

I think it's not 5minutes, look there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470662 for teardown. What I know is that one must freeze underlying glue,which grips the battery, with pressured air. Otherwise battery won't take off "the box".
What is more interesting is can I put a thermal compound a top of processor? What I learned from benchmark results is that my item gets hot way too quicker than other forum members'. Seems like heat dissipation it is not even across the line and I want to help my item keep cool

Your device isn't the only one which gets really hot after just a few hours/minutes of usage. Mine does too. But I dont think thermal paste will do any good.

Well, that's the whole purpose of building a phone with irremovable battery, m8.
Other wise, every one of us can do it.

Soldering/fixing the battery to the chassis makes the whole setup easier to build and cheaper to mass-produce.

Something rattling at the top of the phone

Hi everyone,
I just got my phone yesterday. I like it very much! But somehow I found out that if I hold the phone at the bottom portion and flick the top half back and forth, I can hear something rattling inside the phone. Even if I shake it side ways, I can hear it too. I made sure that it is not from the volume rockers, sim card, or camera lens. Can anyone confirm if this happens on their phone too? Thanks a lot!
Yeah that happens on mine too.
Not sure what that is.

After doing some research it seems to be normal that all do it.
It has to do with the auto focus of the camera.
If you start the camera and check you won't hear that rattle anymore.
Yea, agreed. Good research

same here, never noticed till now though ::silly:

The S5's in the store all had this camera rattle. The better the camera, the more moving parts, which means more audible rattle.

Anyone interested in a lumia 1020 sensor teardown?

Hello guys.
I have a dead lumia 1020 sensor due some water damage. it so happens that i'm involved with electronics therefore i have some helpfull tools at disposal. if anyone is interested i'll try to open the sensor assembly and expose the guts inside. could be fun...
PS tried the same question on lumia's forum page but i figured out that it could be interesting not only for lumia owners but in general as a small inside into how phone sensors are made and what's up with those small 5-6 lenses inside these sensors.

no subscription is required, if people are interested, i'll be making some time to do it. i must first get some tools to get this done, since it's a tiny little thing and must be carefully taken apart in order to see the inside components the way they are mounted.
If anyone have any questions or wish for a specific thing to be tested/shown, please ask.
I also want to manually try to power up the OIS and various other motors inside to try to see how they work together.
Meanwhile, here's a photo with the sensor itself next to the phone and a AA battery for size reference. Quite a beasty in term of phone sensor sizes. It's a good thing since it's internals are bigger and better observable then a smaller sensor. However, the basic principles behind it are the same for all high end phone cameras.
first time i am looking a mobile sensor ......its too big . most of the sensor i viewed are small in size but it looks too big . is it includes : Accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass, barometer sensors ...??
here's the same sensor next to a "regular" 8 mpx sensor. note that a phone like the iphone 5/5s has an even smaller sensor then this, even if it still produces 8mpx photos.
yes, it's kind of big
...and noup, all the sensors you cited in your post ar not included in that casing for what i know now. inside of it i expect to find the imaging sensor (camera..) OIS motors, lens assembly and bearings, some dc motors and a few mechanical parts.
in general, on a typical android phone, accelerometer/compass/barometer/temperature/gyroscope sensors are located directly on the main board. Proximity/ambient light sensors, on the other hand/ are always located near the screen itself.
can you open this sensor ...??
if opened please send a pic of it ..!!
and thanks for information ..!
i could try in about 2 days. The back of the sensor is embeded in a thin cement layer. I would first need to get some tools to extract the outer casing without damaging the internals.
keep trying...

Repairing a G5 with GPS issue - Can I replace parts?

I've tried countless times to fix my G5 and once even had it register all the satellites properly, until I clicked the case closed resulting in losing them all again. It fair to say nothing will fix it now.
I'm curious about buying one off of ebay for parts, since the rest of the phone works fine. Do you think I could have some luck with this approach? What are your suggestions for swapping hardware?
I have the same issue. Tried the fixes I saw online, i.e. sticking copper strips in various contact areas. One fix I tried (copper strip on top of mesh next to headphone jack) gave me 36 satellites in view after previously having none but it's all a bit unreliable so I have just bought a brand new back cover for 20 Euros. Should be here in UK in 5 days. We'll see if that fixes it.

Brand new rear case fitted...........................no difference. No satellites in view, no lock ?

Redmi Note 4x screen replacement

Hi, can someone help me choose an lcd display for my redmi note 4x, snapdragon. The phone is so slippery, it just fell out of my hands today and cracked :crying: . So now I am searching for a new display. I found some on gearbest, but they are really expensive, more than 80$ there are also some on ebay, for 20-25 $. Has anyone had the same problems, or knows which display to buy. Thank you

I am waiting on mine to ship. I will let you know how it turns out. I also opted for extra boxing protection so hopefully it will arrive undamaged.

The process was very easy. Make sure you get replacement double sided tape to hold everything together. Also watch a few of the tear down videos so you know exactly what to take apart. I would also suggest getting the frame with the screen because it makes things easier.

The original lcd is better, this one have less brightness and sometimes i have to touch twice to open an app, but for the price is ok, i changed myself so i only spend 16€.
I replaced my display a few weeks ago. It is really simple. There are plenty of youtube videos that help you if you are insecure.
I bought a display from aliexpress (around 18$), it works as good as the OEM display.
The only issue I have now is that my computer doesn't recognize the phone via USB anymore.. but I'm not sure if it's because of the screen replacement.
