Anyone know where we can find a seller of replacement cases for the tornado. (I have the non-m version). Now that I have a great looking WM6 build on the phone deserves a refresh on its very worn case.
Where are you from? Might as well go to HTC centre

US. (I should have added my location to my profile before now.) So a trip to HTC centre would be more than the phone. What is HTC Centre like?
It's just a service centre, nothing much.

Do they sell replacement cases? Mine is an iMate branded gray SP5, but I am not that particular. I would pay extra for a black one.
I have the tools to install it. I just can't buy one here.
They do sell, the last time I asked, but they have to fix it for you, and HTC is giving after sales service to Dopod in malaysia, not sure if they would fix SP5. And they have to include their service charge for you. Just so you know, they quoted me the price for the casing, in 3 diferent parts, if im not mistaken, its the battery cover, front casing, and the bezel. Total with the workmanship is around RM200, which is around 200/3.5 USD. Not worth it
i got replacement cases for qtek 8300 & 8310 (sp5 & sp5m) via ebay.
Seller?

Dear kkrull,
Sorry, we have no housing\covers for the iMate SP5.
- wiwaycn
Here is one. Cheapest one I've ever seen on eBay.
I would like a new housing for my T-Mobile SDA, but my keypad is also scratched up and nobody sells the keypad. Not much point to replace the housing if the keypad looks like crap.
Actually, I think the SP5 housing looks nicer and I wouldn't mind to switch, but not only would I need the keypad but also the button PCB behind it and I can't find anyone selling those.
I would even be happy if I could find some spray paint that exactly matches, but I can't find that either.

But the SDA and the Tornado are different phones right? I don't think this would fit on my Tornado/SP5.
My old case said 'Qtek' But now it's T-mobile SDA (this is the sp5m). The cases were identical, except for the letters. I completely wrecked my sp5 though. The tools were included in the package. Got it from Hong Kong. I'll try to find a link

The one I linked to is for the SP5, the black and silver 2-tone housing.
The USA SDA is a Tornado. It's the same as SP5m, but has an antenna hump.
nope

I wish it were. Mouse over the link and you can see that it says "genuine tmobile sda htc sonata" and the pictures on that sale clearly show the rounded cover of the Sonata so unless the parts for the Sonata and the Tornado are interchangable this housing will not work.

Hey all,
I've got mine on pre-order and have been looking around for ideas about what comes in the box. I found this: http://www.slashphone.com/htc-touch-...unboxing-16485 and various other links to the same sourse.
It appears you get a charger, headphones, USB lead. However, there is no case?
There were rumours around that the special self-cleaning case might be included: http://www.phonemag.com/htc-touch-di...deo-052706.php but this is not present in the unboxing pics. For a phone to come from HTC without a case is a little strange...
Anyone found anything more about this???
I don't think it's gonna be in the box.
The case is about €15
case
O2 Orbit didnt have a case either, maybe thats just O2 but it does show they will drop it if need be
I think the Orbit 2 does come with a case AKA Touch Cruise

true. bought 2 orbit 2's and both had a case. they came with co pilot too. so maybe the one's without copilot didn't have a case.
i really think this phone needs to be cased
with that back it won't take long before it gets messed up
Htc Touch Diamond
I just got my Diamond this afternoon in Hong Kong and confirm that the case is not included.
HTC Diamond is without the case, the german xda diamond you will get with the case!
The contents of the box is probably region specific in some cases.
It appears that it will be case-less. So, I ordered the HTC slip case for it - only a £10'er so if I end up with two of them no big deal....
Now, TomTom is another matter - let's hope that comes with it!

Take a look what is inside the box:
No case.
UK English version just arrived from expansys
no cover box....it is too bad

I have got a business version, which does not include copilot and extras ( car charger/mount). And mines comes with the pouch(case). Advice to users. if you have the orbit2 please do not buy crystal cases or screen protectors form ebay because i bought a case and a protector and they do not fit as it is different.
Please can you post a pics of your package with accesories, was it from portugal

Plenty of articles on this and HTC is not happy about it.
Especially as HTC Europe will NOT support Hong Kong import models (and they are easy to trace with S/N and Imei.
Wonder how long you gonna mis your Diamond if needed to send back (to Hong Kong) for repair.
Price comparison:
Bought mine in HK yesterday for 5600 HKD downtown . Should be around 700US.
Euro pricing avarage : 585 -600 Euro. Do the maths and understand why Expansys is importing (though they will mention it on their sites if it is UK / HK or whatever version normally)
Is there a screen protector included in the box? Some unboxing reviews I've seen included a screen protector; others make no mention of one.

Yes, there is a SP in the box, but the quality is bad. Scratches easely, gives like a fume - dusty look when in sunlight.
I wait for a better quality OEM version - to reccomend.

Yeah, most freebies that come in any package are generally crap to slightly acceptable quality. I guess it will do for the time being whilst I source out a full-body skin/shield or a good quality SP & case. Any word on Martin Fields SPs?

What reason do you have to think it would n 't?
Diamond is Diamond and the connections are all the same.

Probably because I've already ordered a "Diamond Cradle" from one online company (Daydeal) and had to return it because the USB connector was
1) in the opposite direction and
2) located about 2.5 cm closer to the backplate
Daydeal has since revised that particular listing as GSM.
That's why.
i have the PDAir Aluminium case, and boy it has saved me from some damage. Though, when i used the leather pouch i was unfortunate enough to drop it and now have 3 nice dents in the bottom of it
Is there anybody who knows where I can get a replacement stylus holder, checked net dont seem to find one have tried to contact HTC but no reply yet. Stylus holder helps to keep back cover on aswell hence the reason I need a new one..Any help is appreciated..
best bet is gonna be buying a replacement housing case for the phone by the looks of things, give ebay a go
Have bought one already but came without stylus holder, waiting to hear from another guy who sells housing on e-bay pic shows at it comes with holder but you can never be sure..

Hey guys,
Where can I buy a black back battery cover? International shipping is a must

Replacement Housing ?
http://shop.brando.com/htc-desire-replacement-housing_p04686c0587d004.html
Well, that's an option but it's rather expensive. I only need the back cover.
HTC sell 'em, at least in the UK. There is a couple of weeks wait but it's worth a look.

what about getting a dummy phone from ebay, I think you can pick them up for around £5.
Not sure however if they are complete replica's of the outer housing so its a gamble

you have to be joking, dummy phones dont come to bits they are a fixed piece of plastic but the £15.99 back cover from HTC does look good but extremely expensive.
I just ordered a battery cover from htcaccessorystore.com. Will let you know if it's any good.
is it good....i need to buy one for me too....Want to do some modificatiosna on back cover and want another one for just in case something goes wrong
Go for it! I can confirm that it is a good purchase
damn that's 30euro just for the back cover

i just dropped my lovely tg01 leaving it with a few minor scratches on the black outer casing and was just wondering if it was possible to buy a replacement ?
I think I saw them on ebay before, just look for it there

As a new member i am not allowed to post a link, but just go to the german Ebay and search for TG01 you will find the whole casing search for "ORIGINAL TOSHIBA TG01 TG 01 COVER GEHÄUSE TOUCHSCREEN"
but its quite expensive
54,90 Euro

Contact Toshiba, and decide.
