4.0 THEORY
The Mobile Phone is the best thing that science and technology has given to us. The mobile phones have its uses and disadvantages. With time and continuous usage these electronic communicating devices, require phone repair and replacement services from time to time. Accidental damage, wear and tear, moisture, dust, etc. develop faults and improper functioning of the mobile phone. Proper maintenance and care can avoid or prolong the repair service requirements to some extent.
Sony, Nokia, Samsung, HTC, Apple, Motorola, BlackBerry, Lenovo, etc. are some of the companies which have rolled out wide varieties of models with lots of variation as per the requirement of the customers. Mobile phones, tablets, phablets are some of the broader variations.
The different types of faults and damages which usually occur in all brand mobile phones are categorized into two major categories, as given below: 1. Hardware faults 2. Software faults
1 Hardware faults: Normally, any type of physical damage caused to the mobile phone amounts to the Hardware fault. The common hardware faults are given below: 1. Vibrator problem 2. Screen repair 3. Battery problem 4. Camera problem 5. Auto turn off problem 6. Backlight problem 7. Signal connectivity problem 8. Auto Charging problem 9. Dead set condition 10. Hanging problem 11. SIM reading problem 12. Display Problem 13. Ports replacement 14. Speaker Problem 15. Different Buttons Replacement
Software Faults: 1. Freezing / Hanging Problem 2. Signal Connectivity issue 3. Display Problem 4. Contact service Issues 5. Crashing of the system 6. Overheating 7. Not syncing in properly 8. Dead Pixel 9. Blank or Graying of Screen 10. Charging problems
