Chipped casing

Edited because I was steaming drunk and it didn't make sense.
So I went out and had a few to many drinks last night. Walking back I stumbled into a wall while texting which resulted in me dropping my phone on the floor and chipping and scratching the phone casing down to what appears to be silver.
Fortunately the phone is ok, but as I'm a bit of a perfectionist I won't be able to rest until It's fixed.
Any help would be appreciated.

Lmao. I hope your head is ok later so you can concentrate on fixing your phone
You sent this via the XDA App so it must be fairly ok anyway

Thanks for pointing me here. I've looked at the guide and I don't know if is be confident enough to do it myself. If I paid HTC, would they replace it for me?

Offcourse... how much to pay, that is the question. If you pay them enough, they just give you a new phone ; ).

Only camera I have is my phone. The screen is fine, would've got chipped if I didn't have a screen protector on.
It's literally just the edges of the phone and most of the purple faceplate.

Ring HTC and see how much it will cost.

My guess is well over £100 from HTC.
The only risky thing that I can see in doing it yourself is removing the digitiser.
They could have made the build so as everything is not housed/mounted on to the inside of front fascia though.

Camera glass

Has anyone managed to crack the glass on their camera yet?

No, and with luck I never will!!

No, as far as I have seen here not. But the camera glass isn't Gorilla glass so take care of it ...
It can be scratched easily ... (see other topics about that)

Yes.
Boot into fastboot.
Plug USB in
Turn phone over
Hit with hammer.
It was pretty easy to work out how to do this, much easier than s off.
Feel free to donate if this helps.

Has anyone had any success with onex screen repair?

I dropped my onex and managed to break the screen. I replaced it with a galaxy note 2 but I still love the onex and would like to salvage it for use with my second line.
Has anyone had any success with having the the onex screen repaired?

I dropped mine too and replaced the screen myself. If you have a little experience you won't find it difficult. Btw you can watch many how to videos on YouTube and find fairly cheap genuine replacements on eBay.

I never did it myself, there are several guides on YouTube but I think the most crucial step is ordering the right part ie screen+digitizer already put together and not one of those parts seperately.
most likely only your digitizer is broken, not the screen itself but it is rely hard to place a new digitizer yourself, a big chance of misalignment or capturing air or dust

I have ordered mine from ebay screen+digitizer together, i tryed first to detach the digitizer but i broke the lcd its almost imposible to do so...believe me im quite skillfull with electronics.

Replaced two broken touches + lcds in my service. No problems, but this is my work

I replaced the screened on my atrix with a so called genuine one from eBay but it scratched right up in a few days so I'm guessing it wasn't quite as genuine gorilla glass as the original.

Try cleaning alcohol.

Will pick some up when in town next. Work good?

I recommend you Isopropanol.
Recently I needed to replace the back of my hox so I had one extra spare to try on, I also tried the logo.
I use it to clean camera bodies and lenses as well.
You can buy it on ebay, it's not so expensive and handy to clean all kind of plastic.

I just use antibacterial wipes, the same ones I use for my laptops. Comes up a treat - like new.
Cheers.

I never used to case phones, then I dropped my first HOX, now I got a silicon case for my second HOX.
I find the HOX very slippy and this case gives great grip and doesn't add much to the size.
It was only a few quid on amazon.

I had one on my white one a while ago but thought it made it a bit ugly. Do cases from the a t t variant fit ours? Thdres one they have I'd happily use. Same makers from one I had on my nexus was lush

Sorry for my bad english.

can you put a picture to show this thing ? we will be able to tel you if there is no problem.

i dont want to take apart it again bcuz im afraid it will get scratch
it just like that u forget a piece of plastic inside the phone, and will it cause battery heat increase?
sr my english is not so good.....
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

i think you are talking about the adhesive just under the battery,it is there only to fix the battery to the cover, you can use your phone like that, i don't think this will bring any problem

dont worry it will do just fine

thank you for your answer
