I'll be in an industrial district/town called LongGang, about one-hour drive from LoHu (the train station on the Hong Kong-Shenzhen border). Will the market be anywhere near there?

from Luo hu, 10 to 15 minitues by Taxi, called "Fu Tian Distric."
Many Building and thaousands of shopes selling parts,
Oh... Fu Tian. I've heard of that place before.
Have you managed to install the new housing? Was it difficult? I heard it is not an easy job.
Seems like someone's going to make lots of money... NOT! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Original-O2-E...itemZ9733399786QQcategoryZ15039QQcmdZViewItem
That price is way too steep... I won't be surprised if he hasn't managed to sell any yet.
tyo change housing, not so easy but can do,,,,,
take time and carfully.
Someboday selling....
becouse my prices are domestic wholesaler prices.. so you can feel
reasonable or cheap/
but once they are in shops in HK,, it will be W-or Triple prices.
I ts no way....
so we must share the information to get cheap one,,,
even me in china ...
i bought some battries for my friends,, at the beggning price was RMB220/pc,
other day i found 150RMB, one more other day,,
found 125RMB/pc
china is the place like this....
work around,,or wallets will be lighter and lighter!
i am still working around to find better!
It's the same in Hong Kong: I once found a shop selling extended batteries for the Dell Axim X50v for $280, but after a 10-minute journey I found another shop selling the same batteries for HK$240. Things tend to be cheaper on weekdays in the market place as well.
Do they sell complete body-sets (with keyboard panel and so on), including instructions ?
I have a T-Mobile one, but would kill for an unbranded cover (especially a black one )
now we can found,,
1;Boday and keyboard pannel
2; 3 x parts of Hindge,,,(but some times no in market
4:LCD housing
but,,, the parts are not equal conditions.
*some Housing missing small swithes,,slider siwitches,
also difficult to find Action Buttons curently
*screw nuts which should be inlaid boday are missing,,
some of them have it,
go and vist several shops, then you can compliete
*small ruber parts such like on the bottom, are not available yet,,
but some of parts can be used from your current device.
Manual is on Dvelopers.com FTP,
Sorry for being geeky but have you seen any HTC-branded housings? It'd be pretty cool to have one.

Anyone know where to get HTC mainboards?

I've recently gotten into the hobby of buying broken phones and reselling them for just enough more to cover my costs. (that's why i'm calling it a hobby).
However, I recently purchased a pretty smashed up Tilt - it needed a new LCD and an entirely new housing.
After investing that $140, I've come to find that the mainboard is probably bad, as it wont power on.
Rather than toss my money in the crapper, I want to see about replacing the mainboard, but cant find ANYONE who sells them online...perhaps I'm searching by the wrong terms, but I'm no web n00b...and I'm coming up blank.
Does anyone know of a reputable website whereby I can purchase items like the mainboard for the Tilt? Does anyone who reads these forums WORK for HTC, and like to strike a deal?
Please, PM me if you know anyone that sells these hard-to-find HTC parts...
Thanks!!

You might as well have just bought a new one!
Your best bet is to buy a broken one off Ebay, mainboards will be the domain of HTC repair specialists only and will probably need to be bought in bulk. They would also no doubt cost more than a broken second-hand device would.
Would be a rather boring hobby, buying working phones, dont you think?
But yes, this one is costing me a bit more than I care to admit....fortunately, I think I can probably sell off parts and recoup some of the money spent.... at least, once I call off the search for a replacement mainboard.
i remember trying to source a mainboard for an athena a while back and it was akin to getting blood out of a stone! I rang everyone i could find the number for and got no-where. You can buy a tilt for about 150gbp on ebay so one with a broken screen and housing damage (but a functioning mainboard) would doubtless set you back very little

Hello.
I recently killed my HTC TyTN II.
I know it needs a working Mainboard.
I want to give you an idea,about my 2 cents as Mcmexican says.
You need to go to a HTC Taiwain site and regiter as a Reseler or repairer. Probably you can get these kind of things in deeper sources.
Im telling you that,cause youre saying you have the hobbie to fix them. Me to,but im unemployed,trying to get a job,im broke. So it seems i dont have time and economic positive status to do it myself. And im in Portugal,momentaniously in an Economic crisis..
Im on an exausting search,cause im in an unknown new town,and need the GPS,that my Qtek 9100 doesnt have..
PPl in this forum could work all together to also get Mainboards at a affordable price,for ppl with less economic positive status.
I will start a new thread about that.
Thanks for reading this ppl.
We need Mainboards at a fair price .

Spare phone parts from overseas

Hi everyone. Please recommend your best sites to get some original spare phone parts. Looking for a reliable and efficient CS as well. I'm located in France. Looks like there are lots of companies from HK to get what I need. Question is if someone out there tried one of them yet. With what results (quality, shipping, CS...)?
Thx in advance for pieces of advice.

I've bought a bunch of stuff from China and it's usually of very low quality..Yes, almost everything we buy noadays is made in china, but the knock off stuff coming from china is crap. I'd try to find a US seller. Yes, Europeans don't really care for American's but we make good stuff..lol
Alot of the china stuff will break very easy and it takes in exces of 4 weeks to get your order.
Stay away..lol

X2.... Bad quality in china
I've ordered spare parts for an old phone before through ebay (one of those being a screen for a Sony W580i) and they've all come from china or hong kong. Everything i've ordered has come in a week or two of ordering and while the pieces were cheap.. they got my device working again! ($20 for a new screen (with shipping) as opposed to $50 insurance deductible)
I feel lucky! I've bought some TPU case for my iphone 4g from China .And it is cheap but high quality..lol
I'd like to add eBay's a fairly reliable source of parts so long as you read the sellers' bad feedback first - if the quality is poor people will say so...
Got a lot of OEM stuff from china no major issues - minor ones dealt with very efficiently.
HTH!
M.S
Thanks, guys. However, I decided to give a try to one of those HK based companies I heard great words from, CNN.cn . I've just received the parcel at the end of last week, thanks to their fast delivery shipping option. Took only 5 days since the order was done.
I must say that quality of the goods is far beyond what most of people think when buying from China. I guess we all have to pay attention to where we order, that's why forums like this one are useful for everybody. I'm not disappointed with my bezels, housings, keypads... So I definitely recommend them to those who seek for quality items along with a careful customer service. And they speak French as well, what is a real plus.
I don't know if you guys are aware of this, but in case not and if you're interested, CNN.cn offer permanent discounts for professionals and those who order over a certain amount. Can help.

If you let people know what phone you have it would help people to suggest places to go!
i just bought the droid incredible and looking for a reputable place (or person on ebay that wont screw me over) for some hella cheap things (like possibly a case, and a carcharger, etc). pm me on forums or msn me with a msg.
I recommend amazon and look for Amazon not a third party trusted seller.
eBay and BestBuy are the right place to look for accessories. These are reliable retailers with better customer services and fair policies, as per my experience.
I have had a lot of luck with Amazon and with Frommy.com

Availabilities of the Mate 20 X (regions)

Hello everyone,
it's been 3 years ago since I've been rooting my Huawei P8Max and still have it and working fine. Although the stabilisator of my camer is out of place so it's making buzz sounds when using the camera and making bad photos. But also outdated too?
Anyway, I'm looking for a new phone and now it's between the Mate 20 and the Mate 20X. However... it's the same story again with the P8Max: not available for purchase here in the Netherlands.... What a [email protected]#*& joke! If I buy one from Chinese webstore, I may end up having Chinese apps with Chinese characters in lock screen and chinese characters in 'Configs - apps' which I cannot remove it despite I rooted it.
So what is the best place to buy the Mate 20X? German Mediamarks doesn't send to the Netherlands? Amazon? Or other places?
And what about the root possibilities? Has it changed much? Possible to root either the Mate 20 or Mate 20X? What can I do if rooted?

You can buy in Mediamarkt.de and use a package forwarding service like Mailboxde.com

Can you explain more on how? I live a bit too far from the Germany borders so if I have to go over there, I can't. I don't own a car too.

Register on Mailboxde.com , they will provide you with their German address and a code. Order online from Mediamarkt.de and use the address Mailboxde provided, and in the name field put the code. Once they receive the package, it will be reshipped to your Dutch address for a fee. 15-20 Euros if I recall, depending on size and weight.
Read their website, it explains all in detail.
I believe you can buy it off clove and they are also including the m-pen and flip case cover. There are normally quite a few available from either Norway or Switzerland on eBay that have international shipping.
Why is that device so little spread with stores ? I bought it in the end at Saturn here in Germany, and I know its available at Mediamarkt. But then thats almost the same store these days.
But other than that, its hardly anywhere available in stores, local or online. How come ?
Is it that new ? I dont know when it was released here in germany. But since the above big local stores have it, why not more ? And especially online stores. Is that phone going to be one of those hardly introduced ones ?

Exactly my thoughts. I thought Huawei has learned from the Huawei P8Max which was way to hard to get it and yet it happens with the 20X too!
I bought mine on Chinese webstore and I won't make the mistake again as I know there are European, Global and Chinese version. I didn't knew that back in 2015.
Mine was Chinese and it contained a lot of chinese bloat and apps I don't understand. German Mediamarkt sells the Mate 20X but Dutch Mediamarks doesn't?? Wtf?? Now I either got the choices to get it from European eBay sellers or Amazon.co.uk. I am only worried about the warranty between the countries and some has reported they got problems with the OLED screen after 4 days of use. And another thing is, I thought the Mate 20X has theTwilight version too but nope, only in silver and blue and I've seen the Mate20 Twilight in real store and I like it. So after a week of searching lots of informations and all, I'm thinking to go for the Mate20 here in the Netherlands to save myself from lots of troubles and headache. Shipping also takes long too :/
After gathering the info, this is what I've been told:
AL-00 is Chinese version
L29 is Europer version or non-Chinese
I never understood why there is always these differences with smartphones. Its like here in germany, when there is a new Smartphone introduced, its usually that we dont get all the colors (why the hell not???) or we only get the 256 GB version or only the 128 GB version or this or that, the other versions are always available in other countries only. I dont get it. Nowadays its slowly getting a bit more in regards to colors, that its not usually only the black, white & silver (or grey) version of phones that you can get here. But still, with a lot of phones its still the usual "This Version is not available here!" or so.
People are tired of only the basic colors by now. From different-size memory on the phone models i dont even wanna start, you only always get one model or maybe two, while there are in fact 3 or 4. Who decides what amount of memory people here "would want" to have, or which color we can get and why.
I am glad i found the Mate 20 X in Saturn & Mediamarkt in town, so I had it easy in this case. I could simply go there and buy it, but honestly i would have preferred ordering online with Amazon.
I think I made my choice: I'll go for the Mate 20 Twilight in my country to save myself lots of troubles and headache and eventually shipping when something is broken or some problems on the OLED screen of the Mate 20X. Just the colors black, blue and silver are simply boring, all my family have the basic black or grey colors of their iPhone, Samsung and Huawei. It would have been an insta-buy if Huawei sells the mate 20X Twilight in Netherlands too but nope, their logic is flawed, big time. #@&* it.
Is the Mate 20 root-able? And what can I do with it once it's rooted? Or should I keep it stock? I do know for sure it will have no more the chinese apps and characters like my P8Max have when I bought it from gizok. My cousin has the P10 from our country and he has no gibberish apps and I also have seen the Mate 20 in real life in a store, so beautiful phone And 3.5mm audiojack too!!!
In addition to the very little availability of the Mate 20 X (whyever), there are also hardly any good cases for it. Already asked UAG (Urban Armor Gear) which I used a lot over the years for many phones, but even they dont have any immediate plans to make a case for that phone. I suppose Huawei f**** that up, with releasing the phone so little compared to the other Mate 20 models. I dont get these companies, I really dont.
Yes, I experienced that about hardly good cases indeed! I was searching for good cases and the ones I found or suits my needs or I like, are not available for Mate 20X.
One more reason to go for the Mate 20 non-X. It's really a shame :/
True, but that doesnt make me scare away from the phone. There are several reasons, for me, why i wouldnt go for the other Mate 20 versions. For me, that large display is simply awesome. In addition, something i really hate on all the phones that have come to use these "supposedly" fancy edge displays. Samsung started this, and since the S6 Edge I learned one thing, rounded displays are prown to being broken very quickly. And repair costs of those is always much higer than with non-edge displays. The other Mate 20s have, as far as I know, all a rounded display, and already for that they are not interesting for me. Also, and i know that seems to be something one sooner or later has to get used to (but as long as I dont have to, why should I), i hate Headphone adapters. And the longer I can avoid using them, i will.
But the size of this phone is what really attracts me. Guess I can only hope some better cases come out in time.

No, only the Mate 20 Pro.
Even so, but the other Mate 20s dont have that appeal to me.
Ye, I really would love a huge display and that's why I've been searching to death. I don't care about what everyone says about the size. The OLED display is also really nice too.
Filtering the search results on eBay shows some sellers from UK and EU which is pretty nice. They shouldn't be Chinese versions?
These are search results:
https://www.ebay.nl/sch/GSMs/9355/i...te%2020%20X&_nkw=mate+20+x&rt=nc&LH_PrefLoc=3
And a phone without a 3.5mm audiojack means: a very big no-no, end of story. Adapters are prone to be broken very soon or to get lost.
