Oh..yeohsheng,we are in the same boat...

glad that but too sad when u said it never have chance to be save

it is repairable if u know wat is wrong with it ~,~ but it is hardware problem for sure...
any backup plan? ~.~
what u did with urs? put aside? i haven send go nokia care

Yeohsheng,

It happens when i calling my friend and suddenly it dead..

Firstly,i think it comes from battery drain or whatsoever..but after i take out sim card outside,it act like normal..it dead again everytime when sim card inside..

Nokia care sounds like expensive to me..i hope this can be solved by any engineer here..or any wannabe engineer ..it is sadness have a phone but it like have tablet wifi version..

totally same with me, according to maemo website, it is probably the power amplifier or some ic problem =.=

how to fix it?
as in, now we know the cause already - any tinkering to fix it?

u thought im engineer meh ~.~ but i am lolz. fresh graduate haha
we need to open the housing and see what is spoilt la, if dint open, dunno eh, i tried to open mine....but screw become loose, i cant open ald lolz, just the 9 screw came out only, 2 screw left till i can see the mainboard haha

so daring
mine the flip cover for the usb port already broke-off few months back, i know there got one screw, and another one at the sim-card slot side..so if remove both, then can take the motherboard out?

tat is just first first step lolz....
that 2 first, then pop the screen out, then unplug battery first, then unplug the screen, then 3 screw, then 6 screw waiting u xD. i stuck at the 6 screw part haha. 4 screw took out, but 2 become loose, i cant turn it at all ald haha

is it cause the last 2 screw inside 'botak' already so the screwdriver cannot makan to turn it? ><"
maybe, just maybe, if you have the sharp-tip playar can use it to twist the screws out

cant xD, tried....coz...that screw is deep into . so the plier can barely hold on to it hahaha.

Aiyoyo ...u cant be engineer yeohsheng...

U must not good enough in khb..

If your story like that..how about me..

Maybe the worst..

I think i should wait someone good in screw to repair this

haha, fresh graduate mah xD.
EE haha
even if i open it up, i dunno wan how to chek also xD. so thinking send to nokia care lo

EE - Electronics or Electrical?
I don't dare open my N9 like you, later unplug here and there, cannot plug back - worse, plug back but cannot function then gg.com

electronic xD. but i also know electrical stuff, my dad electrical chargeman =.=

if u r not confident enough, you can always take a step by step picture when u dissemble the phone. So later u can refer back the picture whan u wana assemble back

if the n9 is not repairable, then i think the only option i have is to get a good phone then put jolla into it lolzz....
but very hard to get a good phone like nokia n9. i prefer nokia n9 coz it is made by nokia xD. the unbreakable thinking has been input into my mind lolzzz. coz i always drop the phone, if i using samsung, i dun think it will last long haha. that y i headache ~.~ and hoping that the phone still repairable within my budget....still haven send to nokia care haha.

our N9 ia the great-grandpa to all the Lumia designs, Lumia 800 exactly the same look just running different OS

exactly....still dint have time to send to nokia care..... >.<

Yeohsheng,im same like you..nothing phone can change my n9.

In my mind ,either buy a new n9 or send to nokia care...

But are you sure nokia care can solve this..anyone ever try?
