ummm not trying to be rude at the least... and i know
most of the stuff here is just software related, but all
we do here at XDA and you are worried about a
keyboard mod voiding the warranty lol...
on the second hand, this does look sick. be sure to
post pics of the black and white g1 when it is all said

Looks nice. I currently have the silver back cover on my bronze G1. I'm rolling over what else to change out

Yes it does.
In order to get to the keyboard and face buttons, you need to break a void seal/sticker that is on one of the screws.

well tampering with the phone does void the warranty and plus even if u mess up on ur phone here on xda thats software related...its easy to get the phone back to stock. and its easy to just lie and say some BS excuse.. but a keyboard mod clearly screams VOID

i like this keyboard better
i like how the symbols are lime green and not red(or pinkish) liek the tmobile g1...
i was thinking about buying it when i saw it on ebay but then again i dont want to void warranty. and the whtie g1 is not actually white...its clear. so it may look gray on ur black g1.
and white battery cover has been known to chip.... i was going to buy the full white battery cover but i figured i should also order zagg invisible shield.
that does look clean. i might be interested in following suit.
white battery cover?!?
I was unaware that a white battery cover existed. I have the white g1 and am appalled/disgusted/annoyed/enraged/$FAVORITE_HARSH_WORD at the bronze back cover. I'm looking on eBay tomorrow for said cover.
Any other spots I should check for the white battery cover?

i jsut think the white g1 in uk looks better than the US. i hate how half the phone is silver for US. the whtite g1s that first came out in the states were quickly recalled for paint chipping issues. primarily on the keys and battery cover.

dude that picture looks sooo fake. first of all whtie g2 trackball is not white. its more of a clearish but murky . like water with a hint of mil when its new. then it basically turns gray from use.
hey what kind of retail store did you go to get them to do it for you?
i looked in the service manual, and im pretty sure i wouldnt be able to do it on my own.

okay i know theres a link for trackballs. i am not an idiot. but the picture of the supposely having the trackball installed looks like a fake ass photo. first of all it looks like the trackball is lit. and trackballs dont come in white. esp not in that white. like i stated its comes in a color where water has a litttle bit of milk in it.
u didnt post videos of the new trackball.. if you care to disprove me then upload a video. if not, then i stand by my answer.that picture looks fake. so i am not looking likek an idiot. u think a link to the trackball is proof?

Hi guys,
Im new here and not long had my htc touch hd, but im loving it!
just wondering would anyone know where i could get a gel-skin for the Touch hd?
by gel skin i mean this
http://www.mygelskin.com/tytn-p1.htm
or this
http://www.gelaskins.com/
rather than a case,
only ive seen them for the laptops and they make your product really individual. the ones ive seen also look really high-quality but the problem ive had is finding someone to do them for this more nieche phone.
any help or advice would be appreciated, especially if anyone has looked into it themselves,
thanks,
p.s. i tried searcing it with nil response...
ebay and I must say they look quite cool
^no i couldnt see any, ebay doesnt have any that are the same as the website, the website sells vinyl stickers, rather than a rubber case.
found what i was looking for!
i will share it with you:
http://www.uniqueskins.com/Products/HTC/HTC+Touch+HD+Scratch+Resistant+Skin
im not sure about the colour scheme in the images but you can make your own and they protect the device...
they do 2 sets one for $7 and one for $19 - but you can design your own for $7!!!
edit:
this is what its gonna look like:
ill take pics of mine once ive got it...
Hows the quality of skin? Is it worth it?
This is really cool, be sure to give us an update asap. I'm designing my own at the moment.
PS: I only see the 19 one, where did you get one for 7?
hey,
im glad some1 else has taken an intrest, because when i saw this i thought it was really cool although no-one seemed intrested on this forum.
To update, im still waiting for it to come, the site is in the US and i live in the uk, so i guess a week of waiting isnt so bad. It says it has been shipped, tho which is good. In fact, it took less than 24 hours to get to get shipped which i thought was impressive.
I went for the $19 one instead of the 7 because it covered more of the phone and it was a scratch proof version, so i shouldnt need a case with it.
you can see both below:
$19 version: http://www.uniqueskins.com/Products/...Resistant+Skin
$7 version: http://www.uniqueskins.com/design.php?prod=889&opt=1610
sneaky tip: before i bought it i found a 25% off coupon on the order plus the shipping to the uk was only $3 so in total it came to $17, which if its as good as i hope its gonna be, is very good value for what it is -
a custom designed skin which is scratchproof plus a built in screen protector and it got sent half way across the world!
i will update with pics as soon as i get it....
also, i would love to see what designs other people have come up with...
It does look cool and practical, however, if it is anything like the Invisible Sheild (it looks similar) then I certainly wouldnt waste my money.

Yeah, I found the same coupon, it's 25off. Does the 20 one really cover more areas? Because the 7 one is really tempting, it's just SO cheap.
PS: I think they're showing the Blackberry Storm on the video...
^ the 20 one covers the sides whereas the 7 one doesnt.
without seeing either i dont really know which one is gonna be better value for money, however i went for the more expensive one because i dont really want to carry a case with the phone so im hoping it will be enough protection however, if you just want the artwork i guess the $7 will be better.
Thanks, I made this:

Well it is difficult to apply and wetting the device down is highly un-desirable imo, apart from these things the front protection contains 5 pieces including the screen protector (which is quite unclear unlike a quality screen protector) The smaller front pieces which adhere around the profiled edges came off in less then a week of putting HD in and out of pocket, also the screen protector and back cover started peeling off very quickly, not worth the money imo and for the same price you could buy a nice hand made leather pouch or a lot of other accessories.
Any news about the gel a skin yet? So excited to see how it turn out to be...
This some bs, I don't think any of them bought the gel skin. I have been waiting forever. They don't even post any updates so that we can know the damn progress of the shipment.
I call BS, and I have lost faith in the people who said they will post pictures and reviews.
I just applied the skin that i had ordered and it looks Cool
Downside : the screenprotector doesnt fit the screen so that's gonna get scratched

Hey Everyone. I wanted to change my keyboard to a white one against the black of my original one, and ended up buying the whole housing for a white g1 on ebay. Thought it would be an easy fix, but was I wrong. came with a couple tools but I still had to buy eyeglass screwdrivers. Ended up having to do almost a complete disassembly to get the keyboard in, so the rest was simple! Ha ha JK the Screen frame was hard too! But in the end, after scaring myself every step of the way, I finally ended up with exactly what I wanted. I tested colormatch options through colorware to see which part combination I liked best. But its all about the contrasting keyboard, so awesome!

Nice! Looks like you figured out the brass inserts...that part kicked my arse until I just said screw it and hit em harder!
Thanks looks pretty sick
Dude. That looks pretty freakin sweet. Nice job.
Thanks everyone, surprised I haven't seen this before.
I'll add color somewhere later. Next I will create a custom back like the new credit card cases for the iphone, to hold a little cash, an ID and a credit card when I just need the bare necessities.
Yeah the brass inside sucked, as did the wires, the seal around the screen, but hell, I know my phone inside and out. Hell, I only learned how to root my phone a couple months ago, and I am NO programmer. Thanks to everyone on this site, I bricked my phone a bunch of times but was always able to find the solution here.
I wish I had a pic of the green back I painted when I first got it. It was bad ass but now its chipped- needed a clear coat.
dude, your phone looks SICK! I think it looks really good, you have some major cajones to even attempt this. I thought I was living fancy by mixing and matching different hard cases that I bought but you took it to the next level, haha
props for the sick mod
I say do the "chin" too. Looks good regardless, but I think the chin would give it the full effect.
WOW that looks awesome but the only problem is that the white keyboard is nearly impossible to read lol
And I thought my white battery door was cool! Great job there. It looks awesome.
Did you buy the housing from a US seller or a CHINA seller, i dont know if its true or not but I heard that buying from the CHINA seller might be a problem due to the fittings might be off. I need to confirm this before making my purchase....

u shouldnt really buy from china when it comes to things like this
try looking for a true OEM housing. shell out the extra cash... clone housings tend to be of lower quality
Dudddeeee! That's tight. Did all of the snaps and screw holes line up? If so I would really like to know from whom you ordered that spare case from Partna...

or try this... contact this seller

Now you just need this wallpaper (I use it w/my white G1).

im into the whole black/white too. that looks wicked!
i found a cool battery door at the local tmo store, its kinda like a black/white liquid gooey web (donno how to describe it but it looks cool) and i used a ghost black dx top theme, i think itd fit your phone perfect.
google black and white wallpaper (images) theres a bunch that look awesome
love it haha
post more pics?
Thanks for all the responses!
Right about the keys, the letters do dissappear at dawn and dusk, but no big deal. I can still see my keys in the lowest light without having to move the trackball to light the keypad up.
Yes, this is a china knockoff. I think. Came from Hong Kong, and when I got it, I thought it was a cheap reproduction because of the lightweight plastic. But once I got it on, it feels awesome. No matte finish with the velvety touch, but instead a slick white high gloss. It was weird at first, but using it, it slides into my pocket way easier.
Fittings... Everything fit but two screws holding the screen piece on- the two at the top. The screws that are stock are smaller than the places they screw into. I was worried at first, and planned on getting some better ones from an eyeglass kit. But I don't need them. There is more than enough clips and the other big screw to keep it in place.
Yes, oem is better, but this mod cost me $30 total, and I really only wanted to do the keyboard in the first place so this is all still win for me.
Totally love my phone now, rooted on cyan's 4.1.1 exp, got my 8gig card in running all my apps and freeing up my memory to some 85mb internal memory... till I saw my buddy's new mytouch- 256mb internal memory! Now mine is slow again because I saw his...
Also on one other sidenote, my mytouch buddy just had to migrate from an iPhone, and he LOVES android! Go android!

your supposed to remove the brass inserts from the old bezel and transfer them. It is a PITA, but i was able to hammer them back in on the one I did. There are 2 like this on the center plastic where the keyboard goes as well.
Mine came from a US seller, and he accepted $25 shipped. Here is his link:
Code:

kinda looks like mine, but you got me beat with the keyboard. Nie work.
T-mobile gave the vegas crew clear cases, and that case didnt fit the red slide well... just an FYI
Also the T-mobile stores will be selling the same hard case as the cliq for the MTS... nothing new from t-mobile there
and fitted screen protectors, I did not see any clear cases in my store inventory as of late.
Been looking around at the usual big sources of Amazon/Ebay and such but only finding generic cases/holders. Really looking to get a clear snap-on case, but don't want to pay 30-40 in a TMO store. Any leads?
The case I got awhile back from Tmo for my G1 actually fits for the Slide as well. It's only slightly bigger (since the phone is slimer) So for me atleast no real reason to get a new case.

So the click cases fit the slide?? Im holding out on hopefully tmbile coming out with a REAL carbon fiber one like they did for the 08 or atleast some of the hard silicone ones they have for the mytouch. Right now all they had at the store i went to was a thick looking one that had a aluminum colored screen cover and then the rest was black

I bought one of those Black and Chrome cases, makes the phone WAY to big. I ordered a skinomi skin. Never used them before so we'll see. I work for TMO too, BTW.
Gel Cases
You guys that work for TMO: Do you know when the studio gel cases will be available? They were listed in the studio ad that came w/ the mt3gs, but the studio site for the mt3gs wasn't available when i last looked (late yesterday). I'm guessing it will be ready for the official 16th launch?
I bought the black and chrome case too, itll work for now but it makes it overly bulky....but I absolutely LOVE the kickstand....this phone could really use a horizontal docking station too....a gel case that they said would come out with would really be nice.
I agree on the black and chrome shell. Made the phone twice as thick. I would be happy with a good clear shell with some kind of grip on it. I prefer my old leather pouch I have had since my poor old Wing.
I picked up a couple screen protectors at the local Tmobile store last night, and had them install it for me. They brought out that thick case for me too, thinking I would want that as well. She opened it up to show it to me, and wow is that case thick!!! I am waiting for the Gel cases to come out, see how those look. If not, wait for the cheap cases to hit ebay.
Here is a photo of the red gel case for the slide, it should be out soon...

In a few past posts I've described how I got it in my head to paint my cover (it's a horror story), I've repainted the very same cover and added a how-to for my friends here to have a drink of the creative juices, and finally I dabbed a little in taking requests as a test to see how it would work out.
For a preview of my work:
White 3DEVO
Project Crimson + How To
Blue Crush
I'll try to keep this one short and sweet.
I AM NOW TAKING REQUESTS FOR WORK. I WILL INCLUDE PICTURES OF EACH PROJECT AND POST RESULTS.
I hope to get a fairly good amount of feedback. Good or otherwise. Let's keep it clean guys this is all in good fun
THA RULES:
1. Everyone that wants one must add me as a friend. That way I can keep track of orders.
2. I will use this thread as the place where you guys can make requests and we can PM back and forth and post results and pics for everyone to see (to be safe).
3. Users who request one MUST have a paypal account, it's the best way to send money and it's insured in case something happens.
4. I have a base price for a set design (like the white n black I already did) and will charge accordingly to how complicated or intricate your design gets.
5. I would ask users to let me take and keep pictures of each one I do so I can catalog and show off to get more customers.
6. I would only provide this service to friends here at XDA. You must be a member to request a case, and I sincerely ask you to have a least the 10 post minimum. I will however make exceptions depending on the circumstances. Let's keep this site BOT and TROLL FREE.
I have faith in my skills and I am a reasonable person. If you feel you don't need some random guy online to do it for you, follow the steps on my how-to.
THA RATES:
IF YOU SEND IT AND I PAINT IT FOR YOU (2 COLOR MAX): $25
ADD $2.00 MORE FOR EACH EXTRA COLOR OF YOUR CHOICE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IF YOU WANT TO BUY ONE FROM ME PAINTED (2 COLOR MAX): $45
ADD $1.00 MORE FOR EACH EXTRA COLOR OF YOUR CHOICE
EXTRA DESIGNS GO FOR $2.00
( If you don't agree with the rates, please consider that HTC sells the cases for $40 stock. If you can procure them yourself online for cheaper, just send it to me instead.)
Feel free to use this page for requests. You can also PM me, but I can reply to the thread faster through instant notification (courtesy of the awesome XDA app).

I think that would look good along with a tiny line or chrome dividing the blue and black. I'll draw it out and post a pic before I start so you can see. Tonight I'm working on 2 already so I'll have to start it tomorrow if you're really interested.
yup im down 100%

Some kind of paint I think you called pearl-something. Where it changes color depending on the angle you look at it. You said you were going to see about getting some of that paint!
OHHHH YEAH! Hell I'll look it up now I'm bored at work anyway. Stay posted
Hmmm I found some awesome stuff! Seems like I gotta trick it into turning pearlescent though. See as an example: On cars to get the pearlescent effect (one color in one light, then another in a different angle or light) you have to set a base layer, then chose a metallic layer to give off the sheen, then a lighter layer of a different color on top of that to give the dual color effect. I'm gonna experiment with it when I get the can. I think it might come in monday so more than likely monday night I'll have some frankenstein thing to show off.

i don't, but for 10 bucks (for the skin) i think if u design the right image (like with a black border around ur image) , even if its a tad too small it should look good...For 10 bucks it worth it to try, i think...
And on the case, its a soft plastic, so you should be able to fit it around even with the added thickness, but i wouldn't swear to that one....
They have a satisfaction guaranteed policy tho, so its worth a try!

Be sure to post ur pic when it comes in (should be about a week : )

Cool I would like give it a try but I can't see anything for my Verizon LG g2
Anybody know if there any difference other than back button

Does the skin wrap over thes edges for additional edge protection? I just ordered one with a matte brushed aluminum but I don't think the edges are protected at all?
Any information on that?
from what I can see no edge protection, check the OP's youtube vid.
