I'd try ebay or contact Samsung directly. Sorry to hear u dropped it.
I did the sane when i first got my g1 i was able to find a spare casing on ebay and replaced it myself.

Broken screen + Big dents in bezel.

It happened yesterday, i knew it would happen at some point...
Anyone know how much it will cost me? The device is still working fine, but i have no idea for how long it will..
It's pretty funny actually, i was thinking about buying a case, a few hours later my phone fell on the ground.
So, any cheap repair options and useful cases for the future?

Visit cnn.cn I've bought from them before and have no complain. You'll find the rear housing for around $10 and if your screen still responds to touch and asking as your amoled is intact then you probably just need to replace the front glass which is also cheap and around the rang of $10 - $20. However, if your amoled or digitizer is unresponsive then the whole screen assembly would cost you around $320. Good luck.

Sony ACX2 QX10/QX100 Case for Lens Style Camera and Xperia Z1

Has anyone else had quality problems with this case? Had this about 2 weeks now and it's been in my pocket on its own with nothing else and the corners have broken off and now there is a massive crack along the back of the case. Not what I expected from a piece of official kit, would not recommend anyone buying this item at all. See photos

Contacted sony and was told I contacted the wrong people as is comes under camcorder and cameras not mobile phones and accessories? So now I have to contact them yet again to explain.

I had the same thing happen. I didn't even carry mine in my pocket, and yet I had a corner break off within two weeks of getting it. I basically decided that this case is a piece of junk. I was also expecting better quality from an OEM case. I ended up getting this one... http://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Fash...kaging/dp/B00IHT4DQS/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top . It doesn't have the lens attachment, but it's held up well for over a month.

I bought one as well and it broke after a few days of use. First it had cracks then the bottom corners broke off. Don't buy this!

Has anyone had any problems with the white case or is it just the black one?

White one is just as bad. I got one and after just few days the corners started cracking.

I got both colour
They r all the same
Cracked without colliding
And chipped off when i was pulling my z1 from pocket.

Yep its rubbish quality and always felt as though the sharp edges were scratching the Z1 upon installation or removal. So neatly cut out the attachment part and merely glued it to a TPU case, its not 100% perfect but it is better than the spring loaded jaws.

My M8 El Smasho - UPDATE NOW REPAIRED

Unfortunately because I'm a complete tard I have managed to obliterate the screen on my 2 week old M8. Basically left it on the roof of my car and drove off. 30mph later and a loud bang on the rear windscreen leaves me with a smashed screen. Not happy as you can guess.
Has anybody got any idea of how much Regenersis will charge to replace the screen and body to make my baby look new again? Also what sort of time scales in the real world do these chaps work at? Is the workmanship up to oem standard?

Mine has no such leaflet, maybe they didn't put it UK Carphone warehouse ones
On the UK advantage site it says coming soon so maybe it's not in the UK

Feb 18th - that would be pre-order. Over in UK it didn't release until April.
On the down side, just checked my box, no 6 month warranty leaflet (Vodafone UK purchased 26th April)
Just found this

Oh cripes, is it true that all UK HTC ones get shipped to Poland for repair?! WTF? Will I ever see my One again? I sent it to HTC as I assumed it would be a high standard repair with genuine parts. Now i feel like I'll never get it back and it'll be a shoddy repair if it does. :crying:
EDIT: According to UPS HTC have had my device since Friday Morning, but the HTC tracker says awaiting device?

Or, because the US is the land of Lawsuits (no offence to anybody from the US ) HTC decide that maybe it is cheaper to replace screens for free and covers their a$$e$ rather than have people bring lawsuits against them for not fit for purpose screens. (I am in no way saying that the screen is not fit for purpose by the way lol, it's my own stupid fault.)

Well, I finally got my M8 back from Regenersis HTC repair centre and I'm very surprised.
The total cost of repair was £103.31. I was expecting at least twice that amount as the phone is good as new especially considering the difficulty of the repair.
They have replaced the LCD, the bottom speaker panel, the middle assembly and the back cover. I'm quite impressed really as HTC were quite helpful whenever I contacted them and the whole thing has been pretty painless. It took less than 3 weeks from sending to receiving. Thumbs up for HTC :good:
The breakdown of parts:
LCD & touch- £43.06
Bezel pre assy - £5.58
deco plate upper assy - £1.17
Deco plate bottom assy - £0.89
Labour - £22
Shipping - £11.29
VAT £19.32
Not sure which one of those is the back cover, but it's been replaced!
That means that HTC charged about £50 +VAT for the actual repair. The parts themselves cost double that. No point in buying insurance at that cost.

The LCD is only £43 what's that close to $80??

Around $75 at the current exchange rate. There is a seller selling just the touch screen and LCD for $190 on eBay. The part I have been charged for is a complete assembly including the housing.
It seems maybe HTC are only charging cost prices for the parts. Maybe this is so as not to discourage people from buying the phone because of scary repair costs.
I honestly can't complain about the repair cost or the service. After reading some dodgy reviews I was expecting a worse experience.

[Q] Body swap question

Okay, first I would like to start off that I've been on here for quite some time even though I don't post a whole hell of a lot, so I did search before I got this far lol.... I bought my One a few weeks after the release date and since then I've put quite the dent into it and the speakers have managed to blow somehow.. seeing I have to take apart practically the whole damn phone, I figured go big or go home and decided to do a whole body swap from white to blue... I was ready to order all of the parts on etradesupply.com and I came across this: http://www.etradesupply.com/htc-one-lcd-screen-and-digitizer-assembly-with-front-housing.html
As I was reading, I noticed that it said this:
Compatibility: HTC One*801c, 801n, 801s, 801e
I know for a fact this will work on the AT&T and t-mobile versions, can anyone confirm that it will work on Verizon's? I would just wing it and order it but I don't want to spend that much on it and the rest of the parts only for it to not fit.

Talked to HTC, average repair for our One is $90 so to save yourself a headache, might as well let them do the work for you.

Yeah I was gonna end up doing that if it wouldn't work... I was actually going to body swap colors but can't seem to tell if that lcd will work with the Verizon version... I could just do the upper and lower housing but I hear that they'll never stay on properly after install... I had a insured business that offered to do the swap and replace the speakers for $35... Probably not worth the risk.

I am sure they can body swap to a blue for you also for a little extra. I personally love the best buy blue.

That's why I was going to buy all the parts myself... I'll probably just see if the place working on my phone is able to find a blue front housing

I have the choice between red or black.
Which one would you get?
Blue is out of the question, it would cost me too much compare to black or red

I'd do anything for a black htc m7 vzw

Agreed with Andy. I have the blue and its great and all, but I'd hop on black much sooner. Or if they made a mirror finish silver with black accents.

After looking at the price for a red back.
I decided to go the Black route,
I actually liked the red Version but every place I looked at prices for red back was 3 times more than the black Version.
