Problem:
1. JAMESGARRY:my screen is completely gone, i dnt want a new phone i just want this one to come on long enough to get all my info off, the buttons light up n i think the screens back light comes on so if i repair the screen will it work?

2.John:HOW DO I FIT A SCREEN TO THE SAMSUNG D900

3.JAMESRICHARD:pin lock on powering up forgot it help please
Solve:
Ans 1: try www.excelldirect.com see how complex it is or give it a try

Ans 2:to fit a screen on the samsung d900 is pretty difficult so i would reccomend going to a service centre or repair shop that will do it all for you. also replacing a screen at home will void your warranty where as if you take it to a store to do it will be covered by the stores warranty.

Ans 3:After 3 consecutive PIN input failures, will the phone prompt you for a PUK code. After imputing the PUK code wrong 10 times, will your SIM be COMPLETELY locked. It is advised that when your phone asks for the PUK code, you contact your carrier's Technical Support Department IMMEDIATELY.

###More Problem & solve: problems with bluetooth and pairing (Samsung E900 and MDA Vario )
Guest:
I am having some problems with pairing my mobile devices. I saw the btproximity monitor on the gentoo wiki and here on th forums and i thought it would be nice to install it on my machine to but i run into some problems.

First of all let me explain what i am using:

* Ubuntu Fiesty Fawn
* Samsung SGH-E900
* T-mobile MDA Vario
* Bluetooth USB dongle
The script didn't work so i tried the step by hand to see where things go wrong. Didn't take long to see that there was no connection being made. I first tried it on the samsung but didn't work at all. Then i tried it with the MDA (which gives responce) but this would also not work.

So let me explain what i did:

First i checked if my bluetooth was up and running:

Coding:
avdongen@Masahiro:~$ hciconfig
hci0: Type: USB
BD Address: 00:10:60:A9:10:28 ACL MTU: 192:8 SCO MTU: 64:8
UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN
RX bytes:2841 acl:34 sco:0 events:105 errors:0
TX bytes:1226 acl:33 sco:0 commands:40 errors:0
When i try to search for my devices via hidd i get nothing..
Code:
avdongen@Masahiro:~$ sudo hidd --search
Password:
Searching ...
but when i search with the hcitool i find both my phones
Code:
avdongen@Masahiro:~$ sudo hcitool scan
Scanning ...
00:12:37:A7:C8:93 Avdongen
00:17:D5:59:F0:16 Sugoi
So my first guess is, there is something wrong when i use hidd so i continue to use hcitool. So next i try to connect to the one of the devices:
Code:
avdongen@Masahiro:~$ sudo hcitool cc 00:17:D5:59:F0:16
avdongen@Masahiro:~$ sudo hcitool cc 00:12:37:A7:C8:93
nothing.. no error, no warning on the either of the phones... so i try hidd to connect:
Code:
avdongen@Masahiro:~$ sudo hidd --connect 00:17:D5:59:F0:16
avdongen@Masahiro:~$ sudo hidd --connect 00:12:37:A7:C8:93
Can't connect: Connection reset by peer (104)
Finally some reaction, the Samsung doesn't do anything but the MDA asks me if my machine is allowed to connect and then asks me for a pin. I enter 1234 (this also the default in in my bluetooth config) but then i get the connection reset by peer error.
Some searching here on the forum and google suggest that this has something todo with the error:
Code:
avdongen@Masahiro:~$ hcid -n
hcid[5592]: Bluetooth HCI daemon
hcid[5592]: Could not become the primary owner of org.bluez
hcid[5592]: Unable to get on D-Bus
avdongen@Masahiro:~$
but there is no real solution to be found anywhere as far as i can see.
Does anyone have a clue whats wrong and how to fix this ?
Regards,
Adrian.
PS this is my hcid.conf
/etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf
Code:
#
# HCI daemon configuration file.
#

# HCId options
options {
# Automatically initialize new devices
autoinit yes;

# Security Manager mode
# none - Security manager disabled
# auto - Use local PIN for incoming connections

# Pairing mode

# multi - Allow pairing with already paired devices
# once - Pair once and deny successive attempts
pairing multi;

# Default PIN code for incoming connections
passkey "1234";

}

# Default settings for HCI devices
device {
# Local device name
# %d - device id
# %h - host name
name "%h-%d";

# Local device class
