Resolved Question

s3 mini battery usage

by Mar 15, 2015 9:21PM PDT

Hello

I had two s 3 minis and one was working properly and on the other the battery uncharged really fast .
Then i broke the screen on the good one and decided to change only the touch screen from the one with the battery problem to the good one. I changed only the screen and the battery and the mainboard remained .
But i have the same problems on this one now.
Can someone help me ? Is it possible the probleme is the touch screen , bacause the battery uncharges even if the screen is turned of an he phone is on stand by.

Thanx for the answers

Usually helped by exchanging the phone.

I see so few good repair jobs today that I swap phones instead. The answer is that the "someone" that will help you is the person that has a good one to swap with your dead units.

Over the weekend a friend and I talked about phone repair costs. The minimum counter charge is over 50 bucks not including parts. So http://www.amazon.com/BLU-Advance-Unlocked-Phone-White/dp/B00HPTMCRI/ looks pretty attractive and you can get a SIM for your carrier or move your SIM over.

Given the rather cheap prices phones go for, they are rarely repaired except for the high price models (iPhones and such.)

Example at http://www.cnet.com/news/my-date-with-icrackeds-on-site-iphone-repair-part-1/

Even at that rate, you can get a new phone.
