Hey I was wondering if anyone know where i can get new parts for the x10 because I dropped it on concrete and it seems to have a crack on the corner part of screen/digitizer and body, and im very OCD on how it looks now D: , i'm in the US so any links to like legit parts and not the fake parts would be nice thanks D:!!!
I think i got it at tmart.com, i got the tools needed with it for free . And for only 25$. Sold my xperia after that hehe.

Experia X10 replacement parts, original
Hello there,
I have X10 in good shape cosmetically and working all but the motherboard.
Digitizer, camera and other less important pieces have almost no scratch on them.
I attempted repair on the motherboard, while it was somewhat still able to power up and down without luck, so motherboard is done. The phone is complete with battery. It will not charge and appears dead, backup battery on the motherboard exploded during re-flow process and I do not want to invest anymore in this piece of hardware.
Please feel free to make an offer. For those of you looking for digitizer and screen this would be a perfect chance, since it will come all pre-assembled and swap will be easy.
Good luck.

Hey guys,
My white unlocked Hero has sustained some nasty body scratches plus it is starting to turn yellow. I'm considering a full body replacement. I was only able to find this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/GENINUE-HOUSING-FACEPLATE-FACIA-GOOGLE-G3-HTC-
HERO-WT_W0QQitemZ280402919652QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPDA_Accessories?hash=item41495100e4
Do you think that it's going to be as good as the original one? The seller claims that it's genuine, What do you think?
I found a site that has both the black and white housing for the gsm hero.
http://www.truesupplier.com/faceplate-housing-cover-for-htc-hero-g2-touch-white-color-pr-18489.html
How do I know that it's genuine? or at least as good as the original HTC cover?

The web page is called "truesupplier.com". OF COURSE its genuine
How hard is it to change the housing anyway?
by changing housing you will probably break phone trust me ... and truesupplier housing is oem not genuine by looks of it..
He might not break it if he's careful, and has the proper tools. I've taken apart a few phones without causing any problems.
So unless i'm handy at doing these things, I should not do it myself?
What if I have our local HTC agent do it? Will it at least look as good as new?
i have the white hero and would love to put the black case on it.
the site mentioned above says it comes with the tools needed to change the cover, has any tried doing this?
i would love to go for it but don't want to f*&k my phone up!
i think its not so difficult to switch the cover if you take off the backcover there are 6 screws than open the case from the top of the mobile phone and pull it off
but becarefull maybe there are flatcables from die lcd or the trackball just make it slow and be carefull all the time
and maybe you can find a dissembly how to in google
peace
this site has pics of disassembly of a hero but it's in russian.
http://www.pdacenter.ru/razborka/htc_hero/
If you have to pry the phone open use something plastic so you dont damage the original case. Just in case the ebay housing is rubbish.

any1 bought replacement white hoising? mine is getting yellow. so need to buy a back cover.
Thinking of buying one myself. I accidentally dropped mine on the tiled floors of my workplace toilets LOL (luckily not IN the toilet). so now there's a little nick on the top left corner of the case.
If this is your first time you will probably scratch the covers but nothing more. You need to be very patient and i will suggest take a look to a good tutorial.
iopened my hero 1 week ago and its so easy maybe in the next days i will upload a video in youtube
bye
I bought the ebay one. It's surprisingly well built (Not Teflon though).
The sad part is that my touch screen got screwed up during the installation. The bottom part of the screen is no longer functional and the sensitivity is messed up overall. Did the replacement in a local phone shop.
Now trying to find a way to fix it.

hmm do you want to sell me your backplate of your old case? i need it please
and to fix your problem : you need a new display glas with digitizer
to remove your old glas: use a hairdryer, you have to heat up the old clue of the old glas and than you can push it easily out of the frame but be carefull not to heatup the frame, the plastic can deform, maybe you can cover it with aluminium foil from the kitchen
the video of the dissembly will be uploaded tomorrow by me
good night guys!

I broke the little flap off the top of my X10 (the bit that covers the USB port) while moving house the other week and was wondering if anyone knew where I could get one (Black)?
I know its not needed and has very little use but it looks a bit weird without it :/
no idea why sony didn't make the USB flush
try this
http://www.dealextreme.com/search.dx/search.xperia%20x10
I've have been without my usb cover for months now and I'm used to it at this point. I've looked all over and unless you're going to buy a full new housing and pay all that money for a simple plastic flap, you can't find it anywhere by itself. I've contacted sony and they said they don't make/have that cover as a replacement part, so if you want a new one, you have to send in the whole phone for repair and pay for it, so just get used to it.
In the event that you do find it somehow/somewhere, please update us.
Thanks and good luck.
that's a bit crappy, surely they can see that its gonna be a weak part and will break over time for many users?
oh well, guess I'll just get used to it, it isn't worth an entire shell for a new one
Mine broke today, after a month use.
Anyone got place where we can buy spare one ?

Looking at the pic there is no USB flap cover included.
The flap does show up for the white one. Is it included? I don't know.

good eye so it does. has anyone written asking?
Yeah that's weird the black one doesn't have one yet the white one does -_____-
Just a heads up for anything who want to try this, you need to remove the touch glass and re-attach to this new replacement one. I'm personally too scared to do it myself, but i've read about one person person who successfully did it, but got a little crack in his screen for doing so.

If u referred to the tiny USB cover u can stick back if u squize the parts from plastic clips with a hole in the middle and try to insert from a 45 angle.

So I need to send in my x10 to SE for service (the digitizer is coming unglued...weird huh) and I bought a black one but have changed everything on it to white (housing, digitizer, everything). my question is, is my serial/IMEI number or anything tied to the color? will they be able to tell that I have opened my phone and changed out the housing etc? if thats the case i'll just order another housing and try again.
I can't help you, but maybe you can help me. I dropped my X10 yesterday and cracked the screen and corner of the housing. Can I get a new housing and fix it myself? Where do you get your parts?
Yes the serial number will show what model it is (Sensuous Black or Luster White). The SI number on the sticker behind the battery also tells if its a SB or LW.

can you post a pic of the damage so i can better assist you? I got my Digitizer (aka the glass/touch panel) off of amazon for 25$ which is a steal since they usually run 75$, i got my housing (aka the casing) for 8$ off ebay which i think is a knock off as all the holes for the screws are split already and the glue didnt hold...obviously

Hello all,
Got my S3 a couple of weeks ago and dropped it onto a wood floor on Friday with no case on it (been waiting for mine to arrive from Amazon ). The device seems to be absolutely fine apart from a very small scratch on the top left of the screen. I've been trying to live with it but it's really annoying me and would be more than happy to pay to get it fixed if it doesn't cost absolutely silly money.
Is it possible just to have just the glass replaced or will I have to shell out for the glass and the digitiser etc as well? Has anyone else had their S3 screen repaired?
Thanks
Replacing the S3 screens are pricey, I'd stick with the scratch until you do some serious damage.
It is inevitable the phone will get scratched at one point so I find it hard to believe someone would pay to have a whole screen replaced based on one scratch, you must be crazy!
If the scratch is that annoying get a decent screen protector and you won't be able to see it.
It would be very expensive. The front plate, digitizer, and amoled screen are bonded in one piece and the assembly is sold at ~US$200 in Ebay.

Just read, and see that you are about to do the same. Good luck to you as well.
Yet I think the person in the video didn't peel off just the glass but the glass together with the digitizer, which is slightly tinted as seen in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=es8gezSdKv4.
The cheapest and best solution is to use a mirror screen protector. It will hide your scratch when phone is off.
When Screen on you will not notice it.
I'm sure I have read a thread where someone got it replaced at car phone warehouse for £80ish, not sure how true that is as it does seem very cheap for the job. Worst you can do is ring them and ask for a quote and them tell you this ain't true.
I have insurance which would cost me £25 excess through my bank so not really looked into costs of getting things replaced, but I have taken apart a lot of phones in the past and they are getting much harder to replace things like glass on its own. As said above it would have to have digitizer, which is pretty costly to purchase.

you can buy the unit for £150 and follow a youtube video on how to replace, or pay between £175-£225 for a full repair.
I took mine to a Samsung repair centre on a Saturday and had it fixed within 30min, paid £215 but just wanted it done.
The glass and the digiizer are glued together so the whole unit would have to be changed.

Hi
If the screen still functions and the touch is working properly you can just change the glass face but you will have to be real careful as doing it yourself without the right equipment is risky and you can end up without a screen working at all. the whole screen that is currently on the phone will be completely sealed to the phone so it is a slow process to remove it and you can end up pulling the digitizer off the lcd and again this is not fixable if this happens.
also the finish will not be as good as the original without the right type of liquid glue to go back between the glass and digitizer.
at the end of the day you are better off sending it to someone who does it a lot and has all of the gear to do it, as you will get a better finish at the end.
