Acer Part Number for HSDPA motherboard.

Hi

I had a thought to replace the motherboard in my AA1 150 with that of the HSDPA version that is now available.

I know there is an old (July 2008) parts list on here but it does not include the new HSPDA model.

Could any one tell me the Acer Part number for the HSDPA enable motherboard with sim socket so that I can order a replacment from Acer ?

Thanks for you help

bump, this is just the same thing i'm looking for.

 

Is it really necessary for you to buy expensive motherboard plus 3G modem?? You can just add much cheaper mod to have 3G in your AA1. I'm doing this right now and TBH overall cost of whole mod will be lower then cost of motherboard only...

 

I would strongly consider the HSDPA motherboard after having soldered the mini PCI-e connector myself (there are 52 pins and the pin spacing is .8mm).

Although there may be a market to install the connectors (mPCIe and Sim) for people on their own motherboards.

 

Look for any game console service/repair center. They mostly have fully equipped workshop with hot air soldering guns etc. Friend of mine paid £10 for soldering miniPCI-e, two resistors for USB signals and the fuse for power. He brought only miniPCI-e header - they gave him resistors and fuse for free - just to do the good job. All this operation took them 15 min...

 

10, That is a deal...

 

Yea that may be ok for most people, but I much prefer the ease of being able to remove my data sim card (I have a data only sim for HSDPA internet with my wireless card) and take it to either another phone to use as a data device, or my HSDPA card when I need to do presentations on my tablet.

I'd rather spend a few bucks and get the OEM motherboard with the stock sim location behind the battery :mrgreen:

 

Tnkgrl's mod has the same fit, form, and function, with the sim behind the battery.

 

Few bucks? Highly doubt it. I can almost guarantee it will cost nearly as much as a whole new AAO.

 

That's exactly why I suggested doing mod for much lower price...

 

Yours best shot by far if you dont want to do mod is to sell yours current machine and buy new one with HSDPA. That would even be safest solution coz by so far forum experience menu ppl started to have problems after doing some hardware upgrade that required disassembling.

Anyway I had somewhere around PDF with partnumbers if I find it I will post you yours needing number.

 

I belive this is a part number of card you are looking for LC.21300.005 and the MB that comes with it [or support it - I am unsure] MB.S0906.001. [[It seems that even casing is slightly different - there are separate parts for 3G casings so some kind of modification is needed.]]

Anyway here is the small part of whole document containing FRU part listing:

And that motherboard part number is for the HD version, not the SSD version which is probably why there are different 3G slot cover numbers.

 

The plastic button to turn WiFi on/off is different in the 3G case to allow it to go left for HSDPA on/off.
