Panasonic Repair Services?

**Nick Dellhall** · 01-25-2006, 02:34 AM

Hey everyone!

It seems that finding repair services for Panasonic mobile phones in North America can be such a pain. Has anyone attempted any repairs in NA? If so, who did you contact? It would be really useful if we can compile a list here!

Thanks.

Nick

anyone? any options?

Update: turns how the best places to get parts for repair is straight through Panasonic Japan. Most other Asian parts / repairer are reluctant to source the part out directly.

I'm not sure about that... I have seen a few threads with the latest firmware releases for the x800, but I'm reluctant to use those.

As far as I know, I think you can get free firmware updates from service centers (in person), but not through the net.
