ouch :) - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

now im searching new housing on ebay. and i want it black!

no intro story about what happened?
btw... it looks ouch indeed., though it still functions great, i don't want to be seen either with in such state tp2. good luck.

yesterday my tp2 fell down to the ground (asphalt). it still works perfect.

Have a look on accesories section

Hope u can find a housing for yours, mine fell 3 weeks after getting it.
Got it fixed by HTC (EuroTwice) and that was €230,57
and my damage was only the lcd part nothing to the base
so only 3 housing parts where replaced.
Thank god my insurance paid most of it and i paid 50 euros myself.

XDA Orbit 2 - Replacement rubber scroll wheel

I bought my Orbit 2 a couple of months ago and very happy with it , but just the other day the rubber ring on the scroll wheel disappeared, obviously it fell off somehow, the glue not strong enough i guess.
Rather than have to send my XDA back for repair and wait 10 days, i'd prefer to get the rubber ring and stick it on myself. The wheel still works, but not so effective without the friction of the rubber. Does anyone know where i may be able to get the part from?
thanks
Rob
Mines gone as well. Is it possible to get spares anywhere? Did you get yours sorted Rob?
I had a longlong chat with the support. They told me that I have to sent my phone in for repair (what takes rather long since I am living in Austria and now have to send it to Germany). I could kill HTC for this. All I need is that rubber.
you could check if there exists an "O-ring" seal that fit in the whell,
at least this is what I would do...
Ste
the same has happened to mine. I found mine on the floor ,didnt know what it was and binned it. a week later I noticed it was missing ion my orbit2 lol. o2 has told me you cannot buy spares ,and also even thought my orbit2 was only a month old,external parts not covered in the warranty .basically 60quid and a long wait if I want it repaired . I ain't happy .
Same has happened to mine and having previously owned an original Orbit. I prefer the originals ball roller compared to the ring & button on the Orbit 2.
Step back me thinks...
I bought 225 pieces of Rubber O-rings off ebay and some super glue and it is sorted for me. But then I sold the phone and bought my self a brand new one with the original ring. Any one needs link for the O-rings please let me know.
Same problem for me too... do you have that link for the o rings or has anyone managed to source the actual part?
Thanks,
Tom
My scroll wheel has fallen off.
Does anybody have any info/links for replacements?
Anybody successfully replaced their scroll wheel?
the same sh*t happend to me -> I called to to O2 authority, and they rejected my claims as it is external part. Then I came to one of the O2 stores in Saturn and withdrew the ring from the exhibition phone Ok, maybe its not that fair, but I see no other way
the overall build quality of the orbit 2 is poor in comparison to the origonal i find the whole thing verry plastiky i have also just got off the phone to O2 and have explaned that the rubber on the touch weel has come off and they wanted to send me a new phone lol i advised them a repair would be sufficant and they are sending me a returns bag to have the item fixed. i didnt even have to get angry just explaind the problem and that i have researched it on the net and found many otheres have had the same issue and the wonderfull lady just said sorry ill get this sorted for you. i couldnt beleve it all god customer service for me it seems lol
update they replaced the phone for me as i hadnt herd back from them regards return and i seem to have a spare unit as they sent the new one but it wasnt to be dispatched till they receaved the old one oops lol now how to fix that dam wheel ?????? lol

Frame/Shell & Screen

I bought my Excalibur...erm Dash Used over the summer for $90. $10 more would have gotten me a brand new Black. but oh well
Anyways my phone looks to have been through hell and back.
A gouge in the touch pad & screen...
Over all the case is beat to hell. (the rubber is actually come off as has the chrome)
but its just an Example of the tough HTC Guts
But i want to make it look nice and replace the screen and case but its gonna be like 40-60 on EvilBay and then im scared imma break it like i did the first I-pod i took apart.
Though now ive repaird upwards of 10 I-pods(classic and Nano) with only 1 fatality.....i just dont want to screw it up...
So XDA, Is it worth making it look nice?
And does anyone know where i can find cheap (NEW) parts?

LoL...from Hell and Back...Lol...used by satan himself....lol...sorry but I can imagine your phone right now.
Ebay has good options, do a little bit of search in the forum...I remember Stylez (Mod form this Forum) recomended other sites....but Ebay is a good choice and you can find cheap things for your dash.
There are alot of companys http://www.google.co.uk/#hl=en&q=HTC+Dash+housing&meta=&aq=f&oq=&fp=408428c3d949fea1 especially in America but i'd check out Ebay as it's comparative and can be cheaper, i think the cheapest on Ebay when i was looking was about £29 so converted to aprx $65'ish
guide to take apart the excalibur
Luckily i found a few places that carry the full case for <30
Probably going with the T-bay one though
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...ff71d2f&itemid=130302529858&ff4=263602_263622
The other sites have bad reviews on quality and being counterfeit
Gotta wait till next week to get it...mom spent more then she expected on a New T-mobile Tap & Samsund Behold yesterday signing a new contract.
Hah and i dropped it for the second time monday....i jumped a privacy fence and it fell out of my pocket...now it REALLY looks like hell

[Q] Need a new LCD screen

Any one know where in the UK I can get a replacement LCD screen on the cheap in the UK? I dropped my Defy when getting in the car and ran it over. DOH.... The outside of the phone doesnt have a single dent or scratch and the phone is still completely usable its just the LCD has cracked across the length of the screen.
Really? im the only person in the world to have a cracked lcd screen on the defy???? lol. has any one got a broken defy they wannaget rid of for partsmust have a working lcd of course lol
the cheapest way is to get one one ebay and replace it by yourself
I did try ebay there was only one american seller selling them and it was postage within usa only so it was no good as im in the uk.

that is a LCD Display Lens Panel or touch screen digitizer as it is also known, I dont need that as mine is still intact. What I need is the actual LCD panel/display. Thanks for trying tho.
yeap, wrong item
you can try order from here http://www.wirelesspartsinc.com/motorolamb525charmlcdscreen.aspx not cheap
nice find, thank you. but with shipping its gonna be over $100 dollars, i think i will just hold off till there are more available here in the uk so the price comes down a bit. hopefully lol.
so i contacted my local motorola repair center and they said a new screen will cost around £59 so got it booked in i thought it was quite a good price as to buy one of a internet shop if your lucky to find one selling the screens would work out closer to £100 with postage and then you gotta fit it yourelf.

[Q] Replacement Screen!

Yo guys, Had a bad day today.... Broke the screen on my phone. Does anyone know where to get replacement screen's from now a day's? Preferably not Ebay as i hate it but If that's the only place i guess i must. Now I have checked ebay but the ammount of Galaxy Nexus S Screen's that are on there it didn't seam like anyone would have any replacement screen's... could be wrong though! Any help appreciated
Kind Regard's James Mackay
You broke the screen already!? What happened?
You not going to tell me that you didn't insure device worth 500quid?
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
ill admit that this is the first phone ive had that i DID insure !
What happened? ... How is broke?
I was wondering how long it would be before someone killed one. I very much doubt you'll have any luck sourcing a screen for one this soon after it's release, your only choice might be to contact Samsung regarding repair I'm afraid.
Haha, yep I broke the screen. Well I've cracked it any whoo. Still working perfectly fine . I dropped it yesterday when I was walking to work. Landed right on a curb....
Yeah I didn't insure it, never dropped the previous phones I've had, this ones a slippery bugger though.
I didn't think there'd be screens out yet, I'll keep my eyes posted for some. Anyone know any decent sites to check?

There wont be any replacement screens out for quite a while im afraid, maybe 6 months or more as this is such a new phone and all available stock will be going to make the phone itself or held by samsung for repairs. As mentioned before your only option if you want it fixed is to send it back to samsung for repair or claim under your contents insurance if you have accidental cover.

do you have accidental damage on your home insurance? might be worth checking if they will cover you that way. All my gadgets are covered this way, whether inside or outside the house.
God know's ha, I'm currently living at my mother's so no idea if she has or not! Ahhh well, as i said i didn't expect there to be any screens. I can still use the phone, and at the moment can't be arsed with the hassil of ringing all these place's to check if they will replace it. Thanks anyway's guys, Got a perspective from it if anything .
Did you pay for it with a credit card? You may be covered for accidental damage eg barclaycard:
Purchase protection
Buy eligible goods worth over £50 with a Visa or MasterCard credit card and they will be protected against accidental damage, loss or theft for the first 90 days, subject to an excess of £50. If any of these occur in that period, you should notify us within 45 days of the incident, and the police within 36 hours. You're covered for:

You might want to look into a warranty like square trade. I was looking at insurance options myself and square trade seems to be the best. They allow you to buy insurance for a phone that is up to 30 days old. It might not be the most ethical thing to do to buy it for an already broken phone but they wouldn't offer that service if it wasn't profitable for them.
The plan is not cheap, and there is a deductible for replacement but it beats having a broken phone for 2 years.

I am shocked . 500 quid phone barely a couple of weeks old and you can't be arsed to get it fixed? I would have literally in tears!
i saw on eBay it has already full housing.
The only parts site I know of is cnn.cn.
It doesn't look like they have anything for this phone right now though.
Well it isn't that bad. I can still use the phone perfectly and only notice the cracks when the screen is off. I can't get hold of a screen and am not dealing with insurance company a cause I feel them to be a majour pain in the arse. No point in getting worked up over something I can't change . I'll buy a screen when I find one online. Thanks for all your options though

I'll be going to china on december 7-8 and 14-16, i'll check it out for you, i'll look on the 7, and let you know, and if the price is ok, you can paypal me and i'll buy it on the dec 14, at present i'm searching for white nexus s battery cover for members in this forum.
dont expect the screen to be cheap, i remember the nexus s screen cost approximate USD 120 when the phone was first released.
I have had my Galaxy Nexus for 5 days, and have also cracked the screen.
Problem is I have no idea how it happened. Phone was fine this morning when I set out for work and put it in my trouser pockets. But when i got to work and went to use it there was a huge crack across the screen, about at the point where the curve starts.
So i thought i would try my luck and see if I could get it replaced under warranty, as i had not dropped it or damaged it in any other way, so felt it was a manufacturing defect. Unfortunately I had no luck. As far a Phones4u (Where ig got it from) are concerned a cracked screen is accidental damage, so i will have to pay to get it repaired.
Then they quoted me a cost of £40-£70 for the repair, with the final cost inside that range depending on the amount of damage they had to fix. Now if the fix comes in under £70 i will be extremely happy. When i broke a Galaxy S screen it was £70 for the part alone, so under £70 for the part and fix looks like a good deal, so i accepted thinking i would get nowhere with my warranty argument.
I am waiting for the catch as currently it sounds too good to be true, as i was expecting something closer to £200. I will let you all know how it goes.
Pics or it didn't happen
telepathically sent with my Galaxy Nexus which is being imprisoned by FedEx
pics
same thing happened to me, dropped from 2 feet onto linoleum.
still very usable, only somewhat annoying. guess i will wait a few months for replacements to appear. in the meantime i am ordering a case. also just want to say i have never dropped and broken a phone in my life before this.

microphone and flex

hi all i have a htc one x that i managed to damage the digitizer within 24hrs of owning...ooopss.

im not sure if this is the microphone or the flex but looks like it comes as one piece.
ive searched ebay. and have spent hours looking online for a replacement.
