Battery cover -> anyone willing to sell me theirs?

Hi guys,
I've managed to accidentaly scratch the back cover of my Desire right at the area of camera lens which causes my photographs to be very blurry and lacking of detail.
Since this is problem only on my back cover, I though I'd buy the new cover, but unfortunately I can't find any on the internet.
Do any of you happen to know where to buy these parts or would be someone willing to send me their back cover from for example broken Desires? If someone is doing a return, I could also swap mine back cover for theirs, I'd pay every postage of course and all.
Thank you very much and sorry for my English...

if you find no one to swap/sell them theirs then go to the official htc accessory shop to get one, quite expensive though
http://www.htcaccessorystore.com

Go to official HTC webpage, there is an accessory store and they sell backcovers for £15.99.

Thanks for the reply, I just found that link a minute ago (was searching for "back cover" instead of "battery cover" all the time), 20 € for product plus 10€for shipping seems a bit too much...
I'll just wait a day or two to see if I actually find someone to sell me theirs, then I'll buy the new one...

there is one on ebay:

Has anyone seen an original HTC Desire battery cover for sale at the moment!?

Replacement screen

I have been trying to find a replacement screen for aria, but everywhere I look they are insanely expensive or sold out. Is anyone else finding these for 40 or 50 bucks? I have looked everywhere, so if you have a tip please help a guy out here!

Cheapest I've seen is $80 on eBay.

Just found this site that lists them for $45 but they show backordered. Maybe you can contact them to see when they'll get more stock in, if ever.

Cheap htc digitizers
This is my first post, so I can't post links, but search on DealExtreme and you will find cheap digitizers for HTC.
These are probably not genuine, but worth the gamble?
Are any of these models compatible with the Aria?

Can get them on eBay though for ~$50.

wholesalegadgetparts.com has them for a little under $50.00. OEM markings, it fits, it works, fast shipping. Mine arrived in 2 days regular post (free). Follow guide on repairsuniverse.com. Be careful with the sticky stuff that holds the screen to the frame or you will have to replace it too.

Hello all.
It is compatibile digitizer and lcd between aria and gratia?
I see on Ebay that touch screen for aria is cheaper than for gratia.

Yeah it's the same.

Digitizer
Did you get the screen yet? My wife shattered her screen 3 days after the release of the Intruder (Aria) I found a new one online for $45 with tax and shipping. had to play with the stickers a little to stop light from shinning out of the sides but it was real easy replacement .....Ill look through my records if you still need it.

does the digitizer works like the original one? no problems at all?
I'm wondering if you can get an original one, beside buying a phone for parts.

[Q] Where to buy replacement screen

Something fell off my shelf and feel directly on my phone earlier, cracked the screen to hell. Actual screen part is alright, but the glass is destroyed.
I have been looking for a few hours trying to find a place that has them in stock but to no avail. I am looking for a US or other North American based seller as I do not have the time to wait for a shipper from Hong Kong or elsewhere in Asia.
Does anybody know of a website or specific seller on eBay that is reputable or just has them in stock, any help at all would be very appreciated.
Thanks

the only way youre going to get the a super amoled screen replacement is contacting samsung.... samsung does not distribute their super amoled screen. other sellers "Claim" its super amoled,but tis really just a cheap LCD screen.

I would be willing to take a look at these sellers. I've gone through Google and previous posts here rather thoroughly but cannot find a place that has them in stock.

+ 1. Where to buy? ETA on back in stock?

Bought my replacement screen from mission repair.com. Broke the keypad cable so had to order from ebay out of nj.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

I used this vendor: http://www.repairsuniverse.com/samsung-vibrant-t959-lcd-touch-screen-replacement.html
But they're out of stock at the time.... Be sure to be very careful with the ribbon attaching the captivate buttons to the screen, and in general, just take dismantling the phone slowly, and it'll go fine.

got mine from ww.globaldirectparts.com/category-s/6611.htm
it was way cheaper back then though. $65 or so ...

does anyone know if the capitvate screen would fit on the vibrant??? please let me know

I just broke the GPS connector of my vibrant. It still works fine except for GPS. I can sell my vibrant w/ broken GPS at $65 + shipping from California. Do u want it? Pls send me a message, if someone's interested in my phone. Thx.

the guy who posted above you they sell parts for all phones

I recently bought a screen for a friend's captivate from http://stores.ebay.com/sbstoreonline. The quality of the screen was the same as on my vibrant and the price was right ($62.99). I'm certain that what I bought was a Samsung part adn not a knockoff. The double sided sticky tape was applied to the back of the screen - all I had to do was peel off the plastic covering the tape and lay it down (I saw some adds that show a seperate adhesive kit).
Shipping took about 3 weeks...

[Q] Replacement speakers??

Broke the digitizer, so I replaced it and when I did I also got a white housing. In that process I broke the speakers so only one works and the other one sounds like crap. Looked all over online and cant find any replacements. Anybody know where I can get some?

Check ebay, not just local but worldwide, theres a chance you may find some from a spares/repairs shop, especially from China.
Theres no guarantee but it's the only place I can think of.
Otherwise look for a seller on ebay who sells spare parts and simply ask him if he can a hold of some speakers for you from a damaged phone.

Hey thanks for the response. I looked on eBay but no dice. After searching and searching, I changed what I waS searching to "xperia play loud speaker" and found them. Problem is, one is on alibaba, which is a buy in bulk directly from the manufacturer where you have to submit a query and, well it just takes forever. And another that once I got to the cart it was all in Arabic.
In any case, I finally found them from a uk store for 8 euros a strip of 10. About to buy them so I'll report in case anyone ever needs them. They are super easy to replace, once you get the glued in factory ones ripped out.

That's great you found them. In some cases it's extremely difficult to find spares/repairs.
Best place is to look online or on ebay.
Otherwise if the worst comes to the worst you may have to send it to the manufacturer to repair.
Glad you managed to find what you wanted, quite cheap too costing you just 8 euros.
Their tiny anyway weighing a few grams and therefore shouldn't be expensive.

Replace rear camera

So i broke the screen on my rear camera (gti9195), where would be the best place to buy a replacement?
i have found 2 on eBay i'm dubious about whether they will be the correct megapixel or the same quality, ( they are listed on ebay for £5...seems a bit low...i don't know).
Any one know of a good place to buy from on line, ..any help much appreciated.
Thanks

Here is 100% original part. I'm ordering parts for my service from them. It's Polish store so there is no point for You to order from them but You can look how original part should look and there is part number. Here I found exactly same part as in my local store for less than 30$ with shipping. It looks like original - sealings, part number etc. so this should be right.

Thanks, i have bookmarked the links for future reference. Turns out it is just the lense that is broke, found one on

UK based for any one interested.
