Mobile Phone Repair: Inside Look
Our technicians will install new firmware on any phone, regardless of its software and hardware features and year of manufacture. Let's ask the mater: - how soon do certain problems begin to appear on the phone?
Alexander: On average, you can focus on one and a half years.
— Is this due to improper operation?
Alexander: Yes, definitely. And the reason for this is visible to the naked eye.
— What problems do people come with?
Alexander: Most often, of course, the screens were smashed - at least 10-15 people came to replace them a day. Literally 4-5 months, and a person stops hearing his interlocutors. For example, due to the fact that the 6700's memory module and CPU are located on top of each other, when hit, both often lose contact with the motherboard and the phone stops turning on. It's good if the phone just stops working - it's easier to find the source of the problems. Are there cases when a phone cannot be repaired or is it cheaper to buy a new one? If the glass is cracked, but the phone (for now) is working normally, this does not always mean that the repair will be limited to just replacing the glass. If they make a simple Nokia model in a few hours, then a super new iPhone is unlikely to be within their capabilities. If malfunctions occur in the operation of the device and they cannot be eliminated using methods available to users, we recommend contacting our authorized service centers.
In 2008, for example, Apple products in Russia were, perhaps, even more “status” than now, and repairs were usually carried out to well-known service centers like GPDA. Many service centers undertake the repair of cell phones and mobile phones in Moscow. Repairing mobile phones, smartphones and tablets is our specialty. Phone repair can be hardware or software. At first, my colleague and I were surprised - why didn’t Apple itself come up with the idea of “revitalizing” the back part in such a simple way? As we remember, the first generation Apple smartphones were not intended for our market in principle, and after installing the official firmware they immediately lost all installed poultices, turning, at best, into an iPod Touch. In total, the technical base of our service repairs and services more than 5000 models of mobile phones from different manufacturers. Basically, the repair of smartphones and mobile phones is the replacement of screens, cases and keyboards that have ended their lives due to the fault of the owner himself. The most common services include replacement of: screens, cameras, displays, cases, touchscreens, charging cables, buttons, SIM cards, microphones and speakers; The entire procedure takes no more than 30 minutes. Replacement of the camera, display screen, glass and touchscreen, microphone or speaker, power and charging connector, replacement of the cable, cleaning and restoration of the “flooded” or “drowned” one.
The phones, of course, turn out to be more compact, but let's see how this looks like using the Nokia 6700 as an example. Its central processor, which also has a built-in video accelerator, is located directly under the memory module. Of course, the fact that this is Nokia is still noticeable, but at least Vertu uses modified firmware. And so they carried Nokia devices, which, in addition to being popular, were also the most repairable. For example, cables - if you treat them the same way as their Nokia counterparts. The Nokia 8800 has a typical problem - the speaker grill gets clogged. Nokia 6233 with firmware version 3.10. Considering the difference in price (and that copy in Russia costs 120 rubles), the reluctance of the guys from Mobiado to strain even causes slight envy. He carried several copies of them and sold them in Russia. He decided not to look for good from good and all the 000i brought, about 8910 copies, were given to me for modification. That very first programmer. Let me note that I went to the expense not only out of a desire to profit from other people’s problems (although, I won’t lie, the programmer paid for itself many times over), but also out of curiosity. They usually brought me 1000-30 devices at a time, it took about half an hour, and even taking into account the “wholesale discount” of up to 40 rubles for the firmware of one copy, it worked out well. We will eliminate any malfunction of cell phones and smartphones, from software failure to recovery from severe mechanical damage or oxidation of the system board after liquid ingress. It cannot be said that a lot of people came, but there was a constant flow, and some customers from that period still apply. I can’t say that after this there were no problems with clients at all - no, you won’t be satisfied with Direct alone, especially considering the price of a contact for the most interesting words, reaching 70 dollars or more per click (for example, a click on the request “iPhone” costs $10-5). You just need to dial the specified phone number and consult with one of the managers who service our cell phone repairs.
