i have had an XDA Orbit for a while and the cover is a bit scratched and i want to put a HTC P3300 housing case on it to replace the old one, is this possible i really need to find out if possible, thanks in advance
The answer is Yes, You can if you have full housing for p3300. Frame that hold's everything inside is a bit different but all circuit boards from orbit fit corectly in p3300.
Thanks for your help i wasn't sure if it would fit

I've got some mean scratches on my dash, just wondering if the dummy phone housing is compatible with the real thing so I can make a swap on the housing. It seems like it would work but the chrome part of the housing might not fit internally since the dummy phone has no guts. Has anyone attempted this or can someone point me out to where I can buy parts. I've found cnn.cn sells the black housing portion branded as the dopod c720, but have not yet to find the chrome part.
I know I am a couple of MONTHS late lol but this replacement face has a debranded chrome piece already attached to it.

Rubber skin
I would suggest using a commercial thin rubber skin that fits great. Try the transparent one that allows you to see any detail on the qwerty. I got one for 5 bucks, from HK, I´m happy!
i have lost the outer battery cover on the back of the htc p3300 does any one know where i ould get a replacement from?
If you had searched with yor thread-topic at google, you had found expansys in nearly each country.
but their price is an unbounded cheek for a little piece of plastic
battery cover
expansys is only round the corner from me. i just thought that it being o new that they wouldn't have the back cover in stock.
thanks any way.
ps. £19.95 for a back cover they need their heads examining!!!!!

Hi I got one for my Artemis from [email protected]
Case and battery cover
There is plenty on ebay for about $33-$36. I was looking at some just tomorrow. Type htc p3300 and than look through the list. Good luck. I thought about changing the case myself, but gave up on taking apart the phone. I rather bought a silicone cover and it will also protect the phone.
cheers found one for the Dopod P800 but this is a little different from the o2 orbit style.
Has anyone fitted a new case if so how did you get on any problems?

it's a horrible job
I got HTC to replace the casing on my Artemis after I dropped it for 65UKP all in. Looks brand new now. Bear in mind they deal with the Orbit's *slightly* differently as the innards are the same but the case slightly different.
It's a pretty horrible job recasing these things, they don't come apart nicely.

Was that a service centre in the UK?
Hi!
I want to replace my grey Artemis cover for a black XDA Orbit cover.
Black cover for example:

Are these two covers compatible? Can I replace it easily?
Yepp, works properly, was tested. You need 2 screws more.
Greetz!
I did a search on ebay,
although the sellers claim they fit the Orbit they look like they only fit the P3300 as the edges aren't rounded.
Has anyone tried them?
here's one example: http://cgi.ebay.com.hk/ws/eBayISAPI...hash=item110366026431&_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116
I bought one just like that one!
Doesn't for properly, its designed for the HTC original version of the orbit with pointed corners and not the rounded corners that the orbit had!
Also the hole for the stylus was the wrong shape/size and I had cut it out to be able to get the stylus out of the phone when its in the case!
My advice is avoid it!
thanks for your reply. I'll make sure I avoid them...
In the mean time, I need to find something else to put the phone in.......Anyone got any suggestions>?
