Hello
I have purchased a broken XDA a while back to repair mine, although I haven't used any of it. I am told that it has a fully working screen and battery.
the case is A1+ as is the pen, cradle, and the ear phones.
the screen has no scratches on or any dents any where. the leather o2 case is non used and is purfect.
would like about £45 though just make an offer.
good condition though sold as non working as I cant be bothered to fault find.
thanks rich
also would have thought that if any one was to test and find the fault it could be repaired or stripped for spares...
any one interested dropping to £30
I'll take it for £30
sorry snapped up for £30 on ebay
thanks all the same
Hello, I have a Qtek 9100 and unfortunately I dropped it and scratched the front of the casing up pretty bad. The phone is still in perfect condition and not even a scratch on the back or the screen. I am looking for the front housing. I do not have any scratches on the rear housing, keyboard, or even the battery cover. I have looked on Ebay and the only thing that I have found is for around $100 (US). I do not want to pay that much for something that I can conceivably drop again. So my question is; is there anyone out there that knows where I can get a front housing? I would even buy the total housing to use as a backup but I do not want to spend an arm and a leg for it. I would greatly appreciate any feedback anyone has.
First of all: PLEASE do NOT cross post your question in all (Wizard) forums. One should be enough.
The best way to get spare parts is HTC itself. I bought a battery-cover from htc-europe at a reasonable GBP 10 (or was it $ 10?). Just send them a message via the contact optio n on their website
Get a dummy device
Hi,
Purchase a dummy device from ebay. All the external parts are identical to the ones originally installed.
Regards.

Have you replaced the housing of an actual phone with the housing of a dummy phone. I would just like to be clear before i go out and buy one.
I suggested the same thing over at HoFo and someone replied that they are different. If it were me I'd drop in to a Tmo store to verify though.
Edsub: That's a good response and info. Thanks for the post.
found this site when i was looking for the entire facia for the 8125... they do have alot of other phone types listed too. the 8125 facia runs about $79.
Actually the dummy phones are all one solid piece of plastic, so unless you're going to try to cut the front piece off and superglue it, that won't work at all.

I called brightpoint in Germany for two battery covers.
They did send it by UPS without charging me anything.
If someone is interested in the phone number or email, just pm me
go to the htc web site. They have a phone number for ordering parts. I needed a batter door, and they sold me one for 12.00 plus 7.95 shipping. I had it in 4 days.

I have MDA Vario II for a few month and don't want to buy the new kaiser now because I love my phone.Now i want to buy 3000mah battery and new screen protector but don't know is there any place on the web to buy new plastic case (mask) for my TyTN.It should be very nice if exist some catalog of Hermes masks.If somebody know where,how please to post!
I use ebay to buy those kind of stuff, its pretty cheap and reliable. Ebay do have some hard clear case. Search under clear case for your model.
...could i ask...u've got one?
i've got a clear case of ebay. from a hong kong retailer, valueshophk. paid £5 ($2.50) delivered, been using it for about 6 weeks now and its really good.
it does yes add a bit a bulk to the phone, but it isnt too bad, and when you put the case on it isnt the best fitting, but after a day in your pocket it beds in and the fit is good. as it is solid it does side around like crazy if you leave it ona car seat or something
for the money its great value and it does a good job of protecting the phone.
Marvelous~
and...could i have the shop's URL ?
could i know the transporting fee for this, ie.From HK to your country?

You can do a search for it on www.ebay.com. It will provide venders, shipping costs, etc....

Ebay does have some really good stuff. Just try avoiding the "rubber" cases, sometimes they will come in too flimsy to even work or fit your phone.
I would recommend the rubberized plastic case b/c the regular plastic case will crack easily in your pants pocket.
Hey guys just wondering, since i recently just lost one of the stylus......(And im pretty upset about it to) that just leaves me with one. So, my question is, does anyone know where, i can buy one or one of those 3-pack of stylus?
Here: Ebay rocks!!
Thanks alot man, just bought me a 3 pack for less than $7.00. NICE......compared to what i would have had to have paid through other companies
For the British amongst us, eBay UK also has some low cost ones here: Touch HD Magnetic Stylus

Dude, thanks for that link. I'd lost one of my styli in a car accident (long story) and so I was thinking about going to HTC direct. Just bought two from that UK eBay seller for £2.49 each with free shipping
Happy as a pig in poo.
I miss-placed the one that comes in the phone a few weeks back, not sure where or how(it was after I got the new case). forgot that a spare is provided in the box and was wondering where I can get a replacement if I can't find the lost one, I'm in the uk so might order 1 or 2 from ashcan's link.
Source for good quality stylus?
Anybody know a good source to buy a higher quality stylus than the stuff sold on Ebay? I bought a 5 pack on Ebay and they are all broken, they are made very cheap and break very easily. Also my Noreve case tends to pull out the stylus each time you remove the phone so I tend to loose some that way too I am looking for the non-magnetic version of the stylus. Thanks.

Brando Stylus?
Whatever you do don't buy Brando! Worse than Ebay, at least the cheap Ebay stuff lasts a couple days, few weeks. Brando is even cheaper quality. I just got 3 for which I paid allot of money from Brando Hong Kong, the top is very cheap plastic and they are are breaking/falling apart, the whole stylus very cheaply built.

A stylus for use in the car with SatNav
There's a universal tethered stylus on eBay for use with touch-screen mobiles or SatNavs in cars.:
Tethered Stylus
I've got one and it is good quality.

I think you will find that the so-called "Non-Magnetic" versions of the Touch HD stylus on eBay and elsewhere are actually inferior copies that unlike the orignals, have slightly enlarged plastic tops.
Yes, they do stay in the slot as they are a tight fit but it wasn't deliberate by design. It's to stop them shooting back out as the magnets have been fitted in reversed polarity
Incidenatlly I'd beware of buying ANY stylus on eBay thats sold in quantity as it usually indcates a cheap quality. Also, ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS check an eBay seller's feedback before buying. The top listed seller currently selling cheap HD Touch stylus copies on eBay has thousands of negative feedbacks yet people are STILL buying them ???
Mobile Brando...
I've found good ones on EBAY...
At first I was looking for non-magnetic so that my Noreve case would not pull them each time I remove the phone to put it in my car mount. But so far what I purchased on Ebay (non-magnetic 5 pack) and 3 Pack Brando Hong Kong (magnetic) has been very poor quality junk! I am just trying to buy original stylus now but who knows where to get those from since nobody selling these things tell you whether they are original HTC or cheap junk. I think I saw a 3 pack on expansys (mobileplanet) and I am going to assume those are good original quality but they are out of stock right now.

Usually Expansys' quality is way better than any other dealers...

Did you in fact check the feedback of the eBayers before buying these stylus? I've found that 99.9% of the time if an eBay seller is selling poor quality junk it is reflected in the seller's feedback.
Dont just look at the headline feedback percentage figure - if its not 100% check it more thoroughly. It amazing that a seller can in fact be showing 99.9% positive feedback but due to large volume sales can have thousands of negative feedbacks.
Just as FYI, I researched all of the sellers and this was the only site I found who were selling original HTC styli AND had them in stock in the United States:
http://www.expansys-usa.com/d.aspx?i=173044
I received the package today and they look exactly like the original ones, i.e. it has the small black tip, exact fitting plastic cap with small rectangular "bump" on the side, the magnet, etc. Yes they're expensive, but what can you do...
So I decide to compile a list of housing suppliers for Rhodium:

If you know of more, please, do tell. Still looking for one with normal priced shipping.

Illustrated instructions on Rhodium dissassembly
I kept on checking ebay and waited and waited for the original unbranded housing, as all it seemed to have was coloured ones. Eventually some came onto the market from china for around 50 pounds. It arrived after a week or two and looks to be good quality (ive yet to fit it though as im worried I may mess something up)
You can purchase it also from truesupplier but it is much more expensive. So I advise you keep checking ebay until they come up again. But a word of warning, they go quickly so make sure you snap it up fast
Housing for sale!
I got a replacement housing from ebay which arrived yesterday:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170549457486&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
I had cracked the side of my main chassis, but have managed to fix it with epoxy so I have the replacement housing for sale. Unfortunately it's not OEM (original HTC) as the seller described, but it was a very good price (£27.52) and appears pretty good quality. The mesh section of the battery cover isn't the best fit and the mute button on the rear won't light up as it's solid black rubber. It includes the silver bezel, the battery cover and the main chassis.
If anyone wants it, I'll let it go for £25 inc postage...
Cheers
