W900 open mechanism lost |

Hey guys, I reeplaced my W900 housing succesfully, the only problem is that when I open the cellphone it does not recognize as being opened really. For example, it doesn't even do the "blade" sound nor if it's locked it unlocks it neither.
Anyone might have any ideas? Or what would be the reason for this?
Or Anyone know which might be the connector or cable for this?
Thanks.
Edit: I cannot even take pictures because when I go to camera it tells me to close the phone. So it thinks it's open always.

I don't think you replaced it successfully, it sounds like the phone thinks its in 'open mode' all the time.
Open the back and have ago at realigning the housing, thats what I'd do.l

It's probably missing a small magnet that helps the phone recognise when it's open or closed. Without this magnet the phone thinks it's open all the time.
If you have the old housing still, have a look in there for a small magnet and transfer it over to the new housing, this should solve your problem.

Sounds like the magnet is missing as SammyBoy said, check this older thread where there was a similar issue....

Thanks guys, I found out of the magnet now, I'll change the magnet over to the new housing and will let you know how it goes =D.
By the way, is there any reason why the speaker from where you hear the other person over the call is is not louder anymore? Im having troubles hearing the other person with the new housing, and also I tried turning on the phone after checking for the magnet and noticed that the phone just has a blank white screen and I can hear it going through like on the menu and so. |
