Guest mike-oh Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 We all know how flimsy the little plastic (should've been rubber) headphone socket cover is, well mine gave up the ghost and dropped off today and i've only really been using the headset for the last 3 days! just wondering how long anyone elses lasted. (ok folks, ur not the 1st person to vote for the limited edition one so the novelty has worn off somewhat :) )
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 Mines still intact at the moment but one thing I noticed when I took the phone apart is that the bottom USB connector was designed to have a flap as well but.
Guest goinnuts Posted January 14, 2004 Report Posted January 14, 2004 one day it was there next it wasnt, must have gone walkers or somethin. :roll:
Guest scott2eyes Posted January 15, 2004 Report Posted January 15, 2004 Depends on what you mean. Mine lasted about a month, but for the first 25 days or so, I didn't use the headphones... :)
Guest mike-oh Posted January 15, 2004 Report Posted January 15, 2004 :) someone just had to have the limited edition :D own up!!!
Guest Dooks Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 Has anybody's SD card slot cover torn off yet? Insert/remove the SD card more often than I use the headphone plug... I'm so afraid it'll tear off, I really do love the little cover. Makes my data feel that little bit more secure :D
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 Nope I very rarely remove my card from the phone.
Guest Dooks Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 I have my text files and photos and files I shuttle between home and work... I'm thinking this cover won't last long :D
Guest ratcom Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 Ive been using my headphones for 5 days a week since Ive had the phone (2 months) and its still there :D however since getting a camera, the sd card cover is in a very weak state :cry: ....its only a matter of time......
Guest phonesmarts Posted April 9, 2004 Report Posted April 9, 2004 mine is still holding on. looking flimsy, so i reinforced it with a diamond/kevlar composite elastic material to keep it from falling :twisted:
Guest neostar Posted April 11, 2004 Report Posted April 11, 2004 I have to say although they look good, those little covers are not a very good design for something that is supposed to be used frequently. Although it might not have looked quite as cool they should have used those rubber bung type covers that a lot of laptops have
Guest ratcom Posted April 12, 2004 Report Posted April 12, 2004 Ive been using my headphones for 5 days a week since Ive had the phone (2 months) and its still there :D however since getting a camera, the sd card cover is in a very weak state :cry: ....its only a matter of time...... The handphone flap as finally gone .... R.I.P.
Guest Sasuke Posted April 15, 2004 Report Posted April 15, 2004 im not too bothered about the headphone socket because i dont really tend to use it. The SD Slot cover however is just a matter of time i guess, as i always change between SD cards :D
Guest furby Posted April 15, 2004 Report Posted April 15, 2004 All the little flaps are still intact since i got phone (december), i wonder though how many people still have the usb/power cover bit, i've lost and found it countless times and more strangely seem to have picked up a spare one somewhere :D
Guest stevo316 Posted April 20, 2004 Report Posted April 20, 2004 i just dont bother wid the usb cover! the flaps on the sd/mc and earphone jack are cool though.. and i use the frequently!! and mine arnt made from rinforced kevlar.. etc.. p.s, where do i get one of them... lol
Guest pilotz69 Posted April 21, 2004 Report Posted April 21, 2004 Ok, it hasn't ripped off yet, but it's about to. Any suggestions on some preventive maintenance?
Guest phonesmarts Posted April 24, 2004 Report Posted April 24, 2004 you know, the headphone flap thingy is a tad better than the USB socket cover. At least the earphone flap is connected to the phone...
Guest waroffice Posted May 11, 2004 Report Posted May 11, 2004 mine went in about 5 days of getting it which aint bad cos i battered the headphone socket as i use it for music all the time as i walk/bus everywhere. My sd cover is still there but i lost the usb thingy within hours
Guest shaggyguitarist Posted May 20, 2004 Report Posted May 20, 2004 and more strangely seem to have picked up a spare one somewhere :lol: wud you be willing to part with your spare one for me? :)
Guest mike-oh Posted May 20, 2004 Report Posted May 20, 2004 I just got a replacement MPX200 but kept the USB cover of my old one as a spare :)
Guest beersoft Posted May 20, 2004 Report Posted May 20, 2004 mine broke :lol: but i think i managed to con motorola into fixing it when the 'fix' my battery and simcard holders im going to send my beloved mpx200 away for repair next week so fingers crossed they will fix the wonkey bits for me :) later Owen "too cheap to pay £15 for orange care to fix someting moto will do for free"
