1. Open back cover from release switch on bottom.
2. Turn off phone and remove battery.
3. Push out SIM card from the bottom end.
4. Profit?

its always difficult when your phone is a vi... *cough cough*
the sim card will slide out if you remove the battery. you dont need to open the metal holder that it slides into
Stop messing with me guys, the battery on the amaze is non-removable. Stupid heads. You can't take the battery out of the phone. Everyone knows that. So stop messing with me or else I will cancel my 100 dollar XDA subscription and get you two fired. This isn't acceptable
WillClay, seeing as how this site is primarily volunteers, you cannot get anyone fired as they are not employed. According to HTC's own site, MidnightXZ was correct:
(from HTC's support site):
How do I remove the SIM card or memory card?
With the back cover and battery removed and the phone face-down, pull the SIM card or memory card out of the slot.

And that's why companies have crap warranties. Because people like you keep taking advantage of them when,after breaking their phones because they have no idea WTF they're doing, they even don't have the balls to take responsibility for their mistakes and try to pass it off as someone else's fault.

your right it affects the cost of goods to us. they dont ever lose but instead pass it on to the consumer.
if you understood how manufacturing worked you wouldnt make statements like this.
I had my phone for a lil over a month . its was in perfect condition i had it in a case with a screen protector since i day i got it. then i lost it . i will admit i was a lil drunk when i lost it and for the life of me couldnt find it. So I reported it lost and my insurance replaced it. Well last night my girlfriend comes over and tell me look what i found in back of the couch. So now I have 2 Notes . I want to know it the Note I lost is still good will it work? can i sell it and not get introuble. I know what the right thing to do is. I just want to know if there are any other options.
Unlock the IME# and see if it'll take a different SIM card. If so, then just sell it as an unlocked note. Should bring you decent cash.
On second thought... don't. Um... it's rubbish, just mail it to me. I'll um... take... care... of it.
Unlock it and sell it.

you have seen the articles about the carriers getting together to track, lost, and stolen phones, right? The IME number is like a fingerprint. You use that one, or sell it, and they will find out, and probably find you. Be smart, and tell your insurance, or be stupid, and get nailed for fraud.

That's paranoid. If they do find it, all they can do is track it to the person using it. Just sell it on craigslist at a random public meeting place and don't tell the buyer any personal info.

Unlocked means you can use any sim card. AT&T does not block the IMEI# for whatever reason. I was reading a article about [email protected] being investigated for activating phone that have been reported stolen. I have had phones that i bought for really cheap from people who where kinda shady and im sure they where stolen and t-mobile & AT&T hooked them up with no questions asked.

Hey guys
I got this phone in August last year. I have bad luck with phones so I want to repair this one instead of getting new one. In the last 2.5 years, this is my 4th phone and I don't like upgrading phone all the time.
Earlier in January, I dropped my phone. Screen worked fine and everything but had a crack. I send for repair. The guy gives it to someone else without my permission to repair it. They repair it and since day 1 the top of screen is unresponsive. I turn screen off and on and then it works. The repair guy won't speak to me any more.
Now it has become permanent. It doesn't bother me as much but I hate it when random keys are being pressed. I think it's because of the pressure built on top?
I then again broke the screen accidently. So now I want to do it myself then get a defective screen and lose more money.
This is my first time changing the screen. To change the screen, do I follow same tutorial as outlined in the the sticky or is there something else? Also I'm confused as to what needs to changed. I don't know if they took something out of my phone and replaced it with something cheap. So do I simply replace the top layer of screen or the LCD? If the LCD, how would 3D work?
Also eBay is filled with screen replacement. If someone can give a link to a cheap deal that will fix my phone, it'd be great! Also the repair guy wrecked the housing of my phone. Is it replaceable?
Last but not least, should I sell the phone once fixed or I can continue to enjoy it? As in, will it break down again later down the road?
Go on amazon.com and buy a digitizer and follow the instructions guide to replace it. I'm not sure if you can buy a new housing or not. Replacing the digitizer should fix your issue. Also, be very careful that you do not tear any ribbons when replacing the digitizer. If you tear one, your phone will be no good.
Also, you could always just warranty it a sprint store. 9 out of 10 times they don't look for the sticker that tells if the phone has been opened or not.

Look there, find someone who does iPhones and email him. He'll have the tools and expertise to properly repair your phone.
There is a screen replacement guide stickied in this very forum.

Sent From My HTC Evo 3D, On The Now Network From Sprint!
Sorry didn't tell about the phone.
It's from Rogers.
There is a sticker over the screw and when the tool is inserted, it voids it (the sticker goes in).
The guy won't reply to email and I really don't want to deal with another tech. So many just take any mobile when they have no clue and look up google to fix it! They won't even spend enough time to ensure it's ok because they have others to fix. I don't want to explain what happened between me and the tech guy as someone will post another "cool story bro" pic. Wasn't expecting that on this forums...
Anyway I doubt I can order from Amazon and having wasted so much money, I'd really appreciate if someone can link me to eBay for screen and digitizer (assuming it fixes the top of unresponsive screen)
So where did you sent it off for repair in the first place? IMO, you paid for a service, and if that service wasn't completed correctly, you send it back and they do whatever they have to do to make it right.
Don't you have insurance? I'm confused right now.
If you can't help the OP then don't post, simple as that.

I found someone on craigslist who said they will do it
They said it'd be done tomorrow. Takes them 1 week for parts to arrive.
Parts arrive, they go under renovation
2 weeks after, they open it up and say they don't have tools to finish it
1 week later I get it and it's repaired by someone else
Tell them problem, they say ask them since they repaired
The third party says its firmware problem and can't speak English well and ignore me
Few weeks forward
Take iPhone for jailbreak
Pick it up, it doesn't work properly
Bring it back, they refund exact same money on spot
They say it was already a problem and they didn't do anything wrong and can put old firmware back again
They say take it to Apple, they know more
Apple says the phone is finished
I DONT want to spend countless hours going back and forth. I just want to do things my way. The amount of time spent, if I just went to work instead, I'd have gotten a new phone instead.

if i root my phone, the screen issue isn't permanent, is it?
And this is the second time i root, after having permanent screen issue with HTC hero. So I'm a little worried. If it's safe to root without damaging screen, which root would be best? I just want to get rid of some Rogers programs as they're causing my battery drainage very fast. It's like 2% a minute! Also will a reset fix battery issues?
I am going to underclock my CPU to make battery life long.
Took Evo 4G in for repair a while back, the USB port wasn't charging right, but it would if you propped it up the right way. Anyhow sprint gives it back, won't charge at all, then they tell me I cracked the motherboard and I'll have to pay. My word against theirs, I ended up having to shell out 50.

Why are you bumping? There really isn't much you can do, you should have sought a reputable repair shop, not just some guy on craigslist. If the guy isn't going to honor his work, you are pretty much out of luck.
first its my fault i uploaded the damn VIRGIN **** leak....
yet i am paying 8 bucks a month for **** reasons like this even if anyone says its not used for being stupid to root or whatever....
the rant starts with the sprint store. i go in the tech passes me over to the manager who says since i rooted my phone before he will not help me. so i call tech and they said he better look at it. i said no way am i going back to see that ahole again. so they tell me to go to a 3rd party repair store. mind you my phone was working only thing was that it had vm on the banner. the tech tries to fix my phone only to screw up the 3g. so he places an order for a phone. which was on the 8th.
i try to fix my phone until i get the new phone since its on back order. i screw up even more with no calls working. i call sprint and i swear two out of like four told me to root my phone. level two tech said this... haha
yesterday i call the store i want a phone damn it tells me not today sir call tomorrow or even maybe later in the week. WHAT! call sprint told me its going to be another week. i speak to whoever i can they told me the same about it looks like a major back order. this afternoon i call for a update and long and behold the tech says its out for delivery on the ups truck. few hours later the store calls says it will be in tomorrow... wait who is right here? call andriod tech he says 5 more days. huh i say send me to level two tech which he did. the new tech not only tells me its coming today but gave me a tracking number.
sprint get your **** together and have one open system. also let us live and root your own techs advice is to do it.
I get it, you ****ed up your own phone and it's Sprint's fault for not pampering you like an infant?

not at all. one they need to have a clear message across the board. do they or they do not fix rooted phones. i have seen leaked memos that tell them they should. leave that bit on the side. my rant is not the back order nor the techs. my problem is the systems they use. cs runs on a different system can not even see if there are orders for a phone. andriod tech sees an order can not get any more info. level one tech same and tells me its not shipped while level two tech said it was. level two tech can tell me when its being shipped.. how by get this... they chat with the warehouse. well wait why can it all not be connected. one system!
also when a level two tech says trying rooting your phone what should be said? nothing about warranty was said too.
Should've not mentioned root and said one day you woke up with VM and 3G was slower...
I mean, it's true. You don't have to tell them you rooted. And the day after flashing VM firmware, you technically did wake up with VM. The VM makes 3G slower so yeah..

Sprint's stance is this:
Do whatever you want to your phone. If [Sprint] sees that you bricked it [or any features therein] by:
*using unsigned anything,
*and you cannot restore its functionality by restoring its original firmware(s).
*or are unable to restore original firmware(s) due to lockout of writing to said bricked phone/feature,
[Sprint] will not see fit to service this device or its feature(s).

Then you talk to another guy. And he tells you , 'Root your phone' NO DUH!

OK guys.. Im about to suck it up and ordering a RIFF box (They're about 150-200 on ebay).
Wondering, IF I do... and I JTAG my DNA, would anyone else be interested in having me do it for them? I'd be looking at trying to get about $30 per phone, and the owner of the phone covers shipping to and from me (First class would be about $3 each way) and I could offer in person JTAGs. (I'm located in Reading, PA).
Let me know... (It's looking like I could have it in under 14 days (all orders come from China)
(I ask here because I did sort of the same thing when the XTC was floating around for some of the older HTC phones and it paid for itself in about 3 months)...

Met a gentleman in Philly this evening who had a riff box and some experience JTagging phones (Never did a DNA before.. but, then again, Neither did I).
That being said... Tomorrow, I will post "the secrets to Jtagging and unlocking a DNA (We actually didnt succeed in S-Offing my DNA, but we DID unlock the bootloader, and install CWM)
...The biggest thing I got from it all was flashing the SuperCID as 22222222... Then unlocking via HTC Dev (Full details will be supplied when im less... well, horizontal (Mostly, just a full run down of what we did to get to this point... not sure what parts were redundant or unneeded...)...
\
BUT!!! The phone can, to some degree, be fully rooted after 2.04 by a "general" novice... with some phone disassembly skills and soldering skills (And a $200 Riff box)...

What experience do you have taking apart a phone of this sort? Personally, I'm very concerned with structural condition of the phone after. Are you going to do it to yours when you get it? Maybe post pics?

What experience do you have in not being a douche?
Shiz. I'd be interested after photos. I'd save the shipping and come to you. I'm in Dover, DE

I HAVE an unlocked DNA.. I TOOK the risk of learning how to do this procedure AND POSTED HOW TO DO IT... So, anyone who wants to do it themselves has all the knowledge to get where I did...
As for my "resume"... I wasnt offering one.
And I dont feel the need to prove my abilities when I am simply offering help to those around (and, Ive stated that I would post pics...)...
Only "damage" is on the top... and that's pretty much just because it's not completely snapped back together (Not pushing my luck to snap it all tight as I have to disassemble again and let a little slack out of one of the screws)... The only other cosmetic flaw is the red aluminum sticker above the volume button got knocked off (I need to 3M it back on)
Mind you, this was the fist HTC phone ive ever disassembled... (By deduction, also the first DNA) and it was the first time this phone was ever opened... (The knick on the top near the headphone jack is from me droping it... not from opening)...
Sorry about my finger in 2 of the pics... the camera wouldnt focus on the edge...
I'm in Palmyra, so a nice drive out to reading wouldnt be a problem. Once you have more phones under your belt.
If I cannot put a nice cm on this one I'm jumping ship for the S4.

I'm by Wilkes barre so I'd be down for driving there to get it done. I got a otterbox anyway so as long as it's minor chips it's just gonna be like my razr after the maxx battery conversion

Ordered off of eBay (Sending from China). A company called gsm-forever.
(Ive ordered parts, gevey chips, and some glitch chips from them in the past... never had an issue)
