Cellular Phone Forum / Manufacturers / Ericsson / April 2004T630 screen problem (phone thrown by daughter)
Catching me unawares, my 2 year old daughter snuck up on me and in one swift movement pulled my T630 from my breast pocket and deftly threw it across the room aiming it perfectly at a concrete fireplace. No superficial damage to the phone but the screen display has gone haywire as illustrated in these images http://www.metafazeuk.com/t630/ I have taken the phone apart (I had a T610 which due to its immersion in a bath (and hence the recent purchase of the T630), I've become quite skilled at)) to examine the screen and can see no obvious damage. Would anyone care to speculate what has gone wrong? (I thought a conncection had come loose but the screen is attached to the PSB by a ribbon cable which seems intact). Many thanks Ted (unluckiest man in Britain) Crikey, I remember reading about your last dilemma in here before Christmas,,,, she done it again! | Catching me unawares, my 2 year old daughter snuck up on me and in one swift | movement pulled my T630 from my breast pocket and deftly threw it across the [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] | Ted | (unluckiest man in Britain) > Crikey, I remember reading about your last dilemma in here before > Christmas,,,, she done it again! I'll never learn. Can you imagine what my wife said........Nice shiny T630 it is too. Its no good this time though - I gave it to my daughter to fix but she's stuck too.. Ted (crying in my tea) Look at the bright side Ted, you can now update again, or divorce....:) | > Crikey, I remember reading about your last dilemma in here before | > Christmas,,,, she done it again!

The P900 is nice :-) Yeah, I think I would take the P900 myself, but then again! | > Look at the bright side Ted, you can now update again, or divorce....:) | > | Option 2 is very appealing following the ear-bashing I've had over the | weekend....... | | The P900 is nice :-) > Look at the bright side Ted, you can now update again, or divorce....:) Those aren't exclusive options: "I'll miss her, but the P900 sure is nice!"

Doh :) SignatureAntz, Part of the UKtm family. > Looks more like a T610 now! > > Doh :) Seriously, can anyone tell by looking at it where the problem may lie? Is it repairable do you think? (If I flag up the possibility of buying yet another phone she'll remove something and it will make my eyes water whatever it is!) Thanks for your help - please!

I'd thought of that but it would mean going through the rigmarole of getting it certified as 'beyond economical repair'. I thought if I could wade in there with a hot soldering iron and a hammer I may be able to do something :-) I did think, though, that it may have dislodged something which I could have replaced seeing as the screen appears to be undamaged, but I know as much about the inside workings of a T630 as I do the mood of my wife when I tell her........ Ted Ted: If I was in your situation I would get a LCD for a T610/T616 and try installing it in the phone (LCD's for T630 don't seem to be available just yet) I would use this till I could get the correct screen.

Yo haven't considered the possibility of bringing the phone to a SonyEricsson service center? Even though this kind of damage probably isn't covered by the warranty (but who knows?), I believe that the cost for a repair would be much lower than the price of a new unit. -- __________________________________________ d a n (dot) a l t e m y r (at) t e l i a (dot) c o m > Catching me unawares, my 2 year old daughter snuck up on me and in one swift > movement pulled my T630 from my breast pocket and deftly threw it across the [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > Ted > (unluckiest man in Britain) Why do Kids do that, my Niece is the same, if you tell her she is not allow to touch something, she goes out of her way to get it, when she does, what does she do....., she throws it as hard a possible!. the mind boggles.
