Adding #1024 fix to buzzfix in India
Hey Rakshat, There have been a number of success reports[1] from people about replacing C1009 with a 22uF cap. Alternatively, add a 10uF cap in parallel to C1009. I would prefer the first method with a 0805 cap. Is this within the capabilities of the person doing the buzzfix ? TIA.

I have been trying to send my GTA02 to IDA Systems in Jaipur as per Rakshat's email. It is not as simple as dropping it off at a courier company. Pafex said that mobile phones cannot be shipped inside India by private individuals. Blue Dart was a little more helpful. They need three copies of an invoice from IDA Systems stating that the phone is being sent for the purpose of repair and attracts no Sales Tax or does the invoice require a CST on TIN. They need these in the original. They do require you to sign an undertaking absolving them of liability in case the phone is lost/damaged in transit but they will insure the phone for whatever amount you want. In Bangalore, the person to speak to is Preeti at 2532 1038. She is in the Blue Dart office on Ulsoor Road. If there are more of us in Bangalore sending the phone, perhaps we could do it together. Further bulletins once I get the invoices from IDA and go back to Blue Dart. On a related note, the fix for #1024 and the bass boost as well as the shorting of the erroneous capacitor[1] (if present) would be a welcome addition to the Buzz fix. It seems a reasonable amount of effort to send the phone and it would make sense to do as much as possible on this one trip. Could someone with hardware skills explain the various fixes to the guy who is doing the fixes ?

Hardware mods in India
Is there a place in India, preferably Bangalore to get the GPS TTFF fix and the buzz fix as well ? I have no hardware skills. I did mail Ida Systems[1] (who are the resellers in India) but I did not get a reply.
