1. Introduction
This document titled “Service Manual” is intended to serve as a technical guideline for repairing the GSM
cellular phone (Model : X7) when in trouble. In order to troubleshoot a phone, service engineers or
technicians should know about basic knowledge on how the cellular phone is working and how it was
designed. According to symptoms of a problem, they should judge how to troubleshoot by taking proper
procedure. This service manual with other separate documents will provide such information. In this
document, the subject on system design, which is unique with X7, will be discussed, and some
instructions for troubleshooting will be covered by “HW troubleshooting guide”. Of course, it’s impossible
to cover all kinds of problems and its solution in a document, but tried to introduce basic and proper
procedure for troubleshooting that can serve as a reference. Experienced service engineers or technicians
maybe have their own tricks or know-how regarding some specific problems, which are not discussed in
this material or other documents, and maybe theirs are more efficient and practical. Unless violate
recommended warnings or cautions, they can use theirs at their own risks but it’s highly recommended to
follow the guidelines suggested in this material if possible.
