For some reason my 1st post didn't take!
Try the AT&T store. A colleague of mine dropped his new iPhone 4 last week smashing the camera lens. On the off chance he went to the AT&T store, and although the part was not there in the store, they have ordered it for him free/gratis. Never hurts to ask! I was dumbfounded when he told me this, but it happened nevertheless.
Guess my 1st post did take cos' I see you posted the same question in both General and Q&A, and I apparently responded to both.
Please don't do this again!
Why is this thread in 3 different atrix boards here?

Damn! He posted it in a 3rd???
/ignore from now on!!!
It seems i've made something wrong...
yes i've posted in three forums, just because i didn't know in which one the topic fit the best :
1-Atrix 4G General
Discussion about the AT&T Motorola Atrix 4G (general, tips & tricks, Q&A, etc)
It is a general question (looking for spare parts) and the forum description includes Q&A.
2-Atrix 4G Q&A
For all of your questions relating to the AT&T Motorola Atrix 4G
This is a question!
3-Atrix 4G Accessories
Accessories for the AT&T Motorola Atrix 4G (cases, screen protectors, batteries, etc)
not an accesorie but about spare part, so it is related.
I just wanted to maximize the chance to get an answer by posting in these forums.
Before posting, i've checked that in any of them there was a thread about replacement part for power button/fingerprint reader replacement part.
So please calm down, there is no need to ask for ignore/ban me. As all of you (i hope!) i'm human and we can do mistake and learn from. I did one and i won't do it again.
Back to the original topic
Thank you CaelanT for your answer but i'm in europe, so reaching a AT&T store will be difficult/very expensive for me...
(yes, i've posted in ATRIX 4 AT&T forum, but for this replacement part it doesn't matter, and this phone is not only sold in US: canada, belgium, UK, fance... and this is the only one forum about Motorola Atrix in this website),
It is easy to find replacement part for screen or other part on the net, but i've spent one full day looking for fingerprint reader and found..... nothing!
Moreover it is a pity for a phone which is so easy to open and replace/repair itself (tutorial available on ifixit)
Anyone else has any idea/suggestions/websites for replacement parts?
You posted a question............so I am guessing Q&A not every forum!
This is all I could find in a quick search for parts:

I am having the very same issue and none of the replies here are helping. All I am seeing is persons complaining and sending people all over the place to other post which dont have the answer. I have been searching online for a solution and I am not seeing anything other than take it back to at&t which is not possible because at&t is in America.
Anyways If there is someone kind enough to (1) explain where is the actual power button located (in the finger print scanner or under the scanner) and (2) what to change to get this fix( eg a ribbon, the finger print scanner or is there a button I should buy). I am not looking for a work around what I want to do is change what ever it is that I need to change to get fix.
Thing is, power burton is a soft button sitting below the fingerprint reader, it is completely independant. Thing is, i dont remeber if it is soldered to the motherboard or is apart. Either way, i think tou need to get it from another atrix.
Here at the forum a user posted a site that sells spare parts at low prices, perhaos they have what you need!

It's part of one of the flex cables.
There is a picture of it here at the iFixit teardown:
http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Motorola+Atrix+4G+Teardown/4964/2
and one with the tape removed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2379939
Have you tried ebay? There spares all over the place and if you don't find the flex itself you may as well buy an Atrix with a broken LCD and use it for parts.

Two ebay sellers told me that the flex cable dont come with the power button so I took your advise and bought one that is damage, lcd and digitizer. This will in fact work out better for me being that my digitizer is bad ( already had order one which is on its way) I broke off the wifi button on the board and not the power button got damage.
So for all the people out ther asking about the power BUTTON ITS RIGHT UNDER THE FINGERPRINT SCANNER AND IS NOT SOLD ON THE FLEX CABLE YOU HAVE TO GET IT FROM AN OLD ATRIX SAME FROM THE WIFI EITHER GET IT FROM ANOTHER ATRIX OR BUY A MOTHERBOARD .. I have no idea where to get a board from.
Hi,
does any of you spotted quality cases/shells for the HTC Titan x310e somewhere?
Contacted Case-Mate to know if the ones for the Sensation XL work for the Titan but they said no. (Probably because of the round border on the Android ones).
Thanks.
Would be good if we had a titan sub forum for this sort of question

Yah, the number of Titan related questions and the increasing amount of owners warrants its own forum already.
I got my case from ebay.
Its a very good fit.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390338584272?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
Others suggestions? I live in canada and either the seller doesnt ship to where i live, or there is a 15-25days delay for a single cover.
Any suggestion from US/Canada?
Thanks in advance!
Still no titan sub forum, although another new android one I notice, is this now android developers? ;-)

I've been keeping my eye on this: http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/htc-titan-hard-case-with-kickstand-hc-c652-p32512.htm
Looks really nice, but a bit pricey. I might buy it when available.
Looking for book case type for titan. Cant find it anywhere. and not many choices out there as well.

Does the job but there is a small problem with charging the phone
The case is so thick that the mini USB plug is too short, which means every time you want to charge your phone you have to take it out of the case or take the phone out of its original case (like the way getting access to battery/sim)... and loose the signal.
I like this one. Inquired if one is in the pipeline for the Titan.

Weird ... because I got not at all this problem ; all is ok with plug-in micro-USB slot , I never take the Titan off the case since I installed it
Are you sure it's the same case ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320749362244
But I have to cut the thin part to access easily to sound ans camera buttons (on the right size), very easy to do :
And now I'm totally satisfied with this case , good protection, and not thick at all
In general, I bought Vaja or Piel Frama (a lot more expensive !), and even if this one is not of the same quality (it's not leather) it does perfectly the job. Don't know if I'll change for one of those when they made a case for Titan ...
I found a good leather horizontal one from "eden park" brand. I will post a photo later from my PC.

Inquired PowerSkin. It is not in the make of yet, but are considering it. One is already available for the HTC Sensation, but won't fit the Titan.
I found these by PDAir ... they also sold product on amazon. It seems really nice but I can't find any review. People on the net seems to complain a lot about their shipping which can take up to 20 days. Sorry I am not allow to post link yet. But do a search on Amazon or google PDAir and they have several products.
I bought a Noreve HTC Titan Tradition leather case (http://www.noreve.com/langue/en/product/HTC_Titan_Tradition_leather_case.html)
I will make a test for you and some photos when I receive it
Can someone please post more photos of their Titans with Cases? Thanks.

I'm looking for a replacement loudspeaker/headphone jack assembly as my headphone jack is currently faulty. I can find the part on amazon from a number of sellers, but according to the reviews, none seem to be OEM - slightly different sizes, not perfect fits, difference in quality of loudspeaker. Is there a source for OEM parts for the SIII, or at least a recommended seller for high quality replacements? Cheers!

It's better for you to buy a new phone instead as replacing parts yourself can be tricky and may lead to an even bigger problem. Also you're in the wrong section to ask questions. This should be posted on the Q&A section and not here in the General section.

I'm not worried about doing repairs myself - I'm quite experienced in the area. I could send it in under warranty, but I can't do without it for the two weeks it would take to repair. Just looking for a source.
Should I repost in Q+A or would a mod be able to move it? My apologies, I'm new to the forum and wasn't sure where it should go.
