Hey guys,
Maybe a little stupid but I need the little black rubber thats infront of the external antenna (on the back of the XDA II)
I lost this rubber and I can NOT stand it....
Thats me...
So if someone don't use the little black rubber (maybe because you use the phone often in a carkit...) and is willing to help me out please leave a reply here.
Or maybe a site where I can buy suck rubber.
Thanks in advance.

Little black rubber
I need one too. Anyplace to buy?
i feel you m8
it's almost impossible to get a replacement for that as the normal replacent plugs available are for nokia phones, which are bigger.
what i did was buy that rubber thing you put under items (to keep them from sliding) then cut/sand one of them until it fit the slot.
has anyone tried a hardware store to see if they have any rubber plugs that are 5mm diameter? I thought I lost mine the other day but happened upon it before heading out (lucky day) but I am going to try to look when I go in the next day or two when I'm there and see if they have any, if I find one I'll post another reply.
Just lost mine this weekend! Damn thing.
The o2 shop have em..
on the demo phones :wink:
heh heh heh, that worked out fine for me! One new rubber antenna cover from the nearest o2 shop!
Now to glue it in.... :wink:

Have you tried blue tack?
Jupiter -
As soon as I saw that you had replied to this post I knew blue tack would be your solution! Do you have stock in that company or something, or do you manufacture the stuff in your basement? :lol:
But come to think of it . . this is a pretty good solution, and I have lost mine as well. I'm off to the office supply store! :wink:
I can't believe I'm so predictable.
I hereby announce the death of the blue-tack joke. No more will it aimlessley wander the corridors of this forum! :roll:
Have you tried chewing gum?
I lost my aerial connector cover about 4 months ago and it doesnt seem to make any difference at all, dust doesnt collect in it and signal strength is just as good so it probabl isnt worth replacing it just so it can fall out again !
Anyone....
Anyone.... ?
i will send u one PM me and we will sort out were you want me to send it?

Just received the black rubber from Jim.
I would like to thank you very very much for this!
The only thing he wanted me to do as a reward was donate money to our forum.
I was already planning to do that so this was the right time!
Just donated 10 euro
Keep the soul alive here!

I can't find my N1 sleeve. Does anyone want to go give/sell me their sleeve if you don't use it?
Can I buy one anywhere online?
EDIT: I'm willing to trade my unused black Innocase for the Android sleeve.

Hehe, thanks buddy. Unfortunately, I've looked everywhere with no luck. The sleeve is a necessity for me since I refuse to use a case or screen protector.
Get a new sleeve? Something lightweight and not leather. It'll likely be a while before Google starts selling those in their store, if they ever get around to it, and I'm only letting go of mine if you pry it out of my cold, dead hands.
I lost my sleeve too! I remember exactly where I lost it, but it's not there. Doesn't really make sense huh?
I got this one to replace it (I hope I find the original!)

I've missed placed mine too! pretty sure i had it in my lap while driving then when i got out of the car it fell out.

Somebody please post a review of the SFbags Nexus One sleeve. I love their laptop bags (neoprene), but I'm wondering if the suede is enough shock protection.

No, but I surround myself with gun-toting bodyguards in black.
Wish Google'd start selling Android merchandise really, I'd be happy to shell out for an extra sleeve if mine ever gets torn/misplaced. And that Android plushie.
I'm still looking for a sleeve. I will paypal $5 for shipping if someone is willing to send me their sleeve that they don't use. I promise to pay it forward too.
... Is also after a replacement sleeve! Twitter @MatMew willing to pay a reasonable fee + shipping to Australia. Hit a brother up.

I am also dying to get original sleeve. So write as soon as you get info from customer service.

I hope I get first dibs on a stock sleeve someone is willing to give up, since I was the originator of this thread.
Hi
I have damaged the metallic black bezel around the screen at a few places (especially the part above the micro usb port). I guess it is called Faceplate.
What I wanted to know is if I can replace this part somehow. If I look at the region under the screen after opening the slider, it appears as if it can come off.
If it is possible to replace it, does anyone know where can I buy one of these?? I have googled but could not find anything.
I have found only a full cover. Try searching milestone 2 housing on eBay.

I've ordered one from the link above and I should receive it in the next 7-14 days so I'll let you know how I go but I'm 100% confident that the physical housing between the MS2 and D2 are identical.
I have received the housing (from the eBay link above) and fitted it last night. The case is a Verizon stamped unit and is 100% perfect, next time I think I'll just live with the worn look. Very fiddly job but does give you an appreciation of the engineering ... They use a lot of adhesive, pita.
Well I have managed to knick the display input cable and now have a one centimetre row smack in the middle of the screen that won't respond to touch. My fault, I thought I'd taken care to ensure no damage to some of these fragile cables but alas no
So, just ordered a SGII Stick that where the sun doesn't shine Motorola! Yeah, I know you couldn't care less but I feel better
Well thanks for the info. I won't have the luxury of buying a new one if I ruin my MS2 so I guess I'll stick with a little wear and tear. BTW nice buy!!
Or just take it to your nearest phone repair shop and they'll sort it out. =D

How does the housing attach to the digitizer/glass? Because the tutorial I found on iFixit didn't detach the digitizer from the housing.
My housing cracked badly, I "fixed" a corner with superglue, but I think it permeated through the digitizer, so there's a strip in the left side (the one with the MENU button) which is insensitive. Another drop and the whole top part fell off and I don't intend to glue this one. Probably I'll buy a new front panel and a new digitizer, but I need to know if I'll be able to attach them at home or if I'll need some adhesive (yuck).
Thanks in advance! :fingers-crossed:
Hello all,
The glass cover on my sidekick got broken accidentally. The LCD works fine.
I'm planning to get a replacement front panel glass.
I found the following link on ebay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tmobile-Sam...ultDomain_0&hash=item2c605f3c7e#ht_2045wt_905
Is this an original OEM part as described? After it's replaced will it work as good as the original?
Any other options other than the above ebay link?
Please help!

God only knows. It'll probably work though.
Sorry this is late, but the ribbin cable and glass seem to be just like the original. Let us know how it went.

How did you break it? I'm asking only because I know this is a pretty durable phone, I've already dropped it screen first on gravel, without a scratch to show of it.
This looks legit to me. Digitizer is the key word. I've replaced many of these on different phones. As long as it's a ditizer for the correct phone model number. Are you doing this yourself? There should be some good tutorials on disassembly on youtube.

@AFAinHD It was bizarre! My watch was on a chair. My wife threw my watch onto the bed saying "here it is. keep it ". The metal part of the watch fell on the mobile (the bevel part of the glass). You could imagine our shock after that!!

Not planning to do this myself. There's a good servicing person (freelancer) for all kinds of mobiles. Planning to give it to him.
Thank you all for your replies! Planning to go for it. Will let you all know how it went! Just hope I'm able to get it back to its original condition. Hmmm...

Something has been confusing me for a while. When you purchase a digitzer without a housing, how do you attach it to said housing?
I'm planing on buying a white lg digtizer + new housing (as i dented mine after a few nasty drops), but noticed the white ones are only the digitzer, and do not come with any adhesive. Do I just "force it in"
Edit: Damn, Had multiple threads open, will ask to have it moved to Q & A

The digitizer i bought for my brothers galaxy s2 only required me to attach the little ribbons and screw it down. I'm sure it's similar on our phone.

i believe that "kit" would work. i dont see the need for the last item. as the first item comes with adhesive, and the digitizer itself should come with some adhesive in the back of it. atleast they usually do. but you can buy it for self insurance

be careful not to buy the cheap bad adhesive , some bad types doesnt hold the digitizer well enough , falls soon,
i think its better to buy it with the frame attached , much easier to assemble
The problem is no white ones come with attached frames
Have you had a bad experience with adhesive?

The phone is metal, and so are the flaps.
I'm sure you can buy the flaps from a supplier somewhere, but it's a new phone and that is definitely covered under warranty.
Just go to www.sonymobile.com choose country and your model and then go to contact us. Choose chat support and explain to an agent. They will arrange for the phone to be repaired.
It takes about a week - that is the worst part.

Or less you want to return it to Sony I would buy a new flap off the Internet. Or maybe you could glue the metal back on.
Thanks,i just decided ill speak to amazon about it as i did buy the phone from there and they are sending the replacement to me straight away they said it would arrive tomorrow.so a better resolve than not having my phone for a week couldnt live without it tbh with work etc

That's odd, where did you buy? I thought every unit came with a spare. Even the TMO version I have came with it. If anyone does cost cutting its usually with the carrier versions like with no headphones etc.
Its $5.99 on eBay comes with the other cover as well. Free shipping.
