Need new keypad for my vox. But from where? - HTC Vox

Hello there
I have somehow destroyed my front keypad on my vox . It is both the keypad buttons AND the Keypad PVC.. I can easily find the buttons but i need some new PVC unit to replace. Does anyone of you know where i can find this ? If i cant find this the phone is useless which would be a shame as the rest of the phone works perfectly..

I Purchased mine in ebay, make a search "HTC-S710 Keyboard"

http://cgi.ebay.com/Genuine-HTC-S71...ryZ20336QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
$13 USD. If you replace it, let me know how it goes. I really like the black look over the silver. I'll do mine soon since my # key is sticking a bit.

You guys misunderstand me .. Its not that part that i need its the keypad membrane underneath they buttons.. The Print is what i need..
And h4waii don't buy those keys .. i did and they did not fit in my vox as they are missing som brackets which the originals have.

Are there any tips to replacing the keypad - i've got the service manual and it there are a lot of steps. My experience with car manuals is that these pictures make it easier than it looks
Any help gratefully received

Orbit II Replacement Screen - Seeking Help

Hi there,
I have a really desperate problem
I've got an Orbit II bought in Germany and I'm not covered by their guarantee here in Moscow. So, I happened to be a very lucky one and the touch screen of my device is faulty - it has a gray stain on it clearly visible on a white background.
I found a replacement screen for the Touch Cruise here but what the technicians discovered yesterday was that the screen was actually the same, but the cord on that TC screen (stub, whatever) sticks out at a different place than on mine!
Found out one more thing:
Orbit 2 = Polaris 200.
TC = Polaris 100.
Guys, can anyone help me find a source to buy a replacement screen for Orbit 2 in Germany or UK?
Thanks a whole lot in advance!!!
I have posted a request for you over in the german ppc-Welt Forum
Maybe someone gathers some information there. I will keep you updated.

Well, thanks for these links... But I don't want to dismantle anything. I just need to buy the whole touchscreen assy.

But the problem is that the display on the photo is for TC, NOT for Orbit 2
As I said earlier,
but the cord on that TC screen (stub, whatever) sticks out at a different place than on mine!
You see, the cord on this one sticks out in the lower left corner of the screen. But mine is in the middle of the left side.

Interesting because on the posted link,
they state it fits for following devices:
HTC:
Touch Cruise
Polaris
P3650
XDA mini II
O2:
XDA Orbit 2
This would assume, that it is the same for all models
Maybe best is to email them and describe your problem by support form:

Did you order one?
http://cnn.cn/shop/p3650-touch-cruise-polaris-c-277_456.html
No, haven't ordered anything yet. But these guys have told me finally that their screen is incompatible with my Orbit but they will try to find one that is
I hope to have news next week.
Will this

be the whole screen or are there two parts (lcd and digitizer).
How do I know, what is broken?
On my device there is a small black spot like ink and a tiny crack from the whole left to right. Display is working fine except the black part, the touchscreen works everywhere.
What parts do I need?
Thank you
JueLue
Well, I was informed by those technicians who disassembled my device that I needed the whole screen. That's the only thing I know.
So, I can't help you here.
I have a dent\scratch in the housing, and multiple scratches on my screen
I'm actually thinking about selling my TC, cause of all the issues, etc.
I wonder if it's worth it to buy the housing and screen replacements...hm
I'm gonna wait until someone here has successfully used one of those kits and successfully dismantled the device.
Knowing me, I would definately destroy it without reading a how-to from someone who has actually done this before
Hello Dimitry N!
Have you got some news for us? Did you get a new LCD screen? And how to replace? Many questions....
I got myself a TC instead.
The Orbit 2 has a Samsung (!!!) touch screen, which is a real piece of ****.
The one on the TC really does have the viewing angle of 180 degrees, as it was advertised.
The Orbit 2's screen - no. When you look at it from the "top", the image on the screen darkens a lot, and vice versa. And the image on the TC screen is a lot crisper! I can tell this by holding the 2 devices together right now!
What a pity! O2 decided to include some nice accessories like the car charger and the car holder, and saved on the screen instead!
So, I will sell my Orbit 2!

S710 Housing?

Anyone know where I can find Housing for my S710? Dropped it again and the case is cracked! Only ones I can find are around £50!
About £20 on fleabay. I bought one about 4 weeks ago.

Hi
Was it difficult to change? I've had a look at the service manual and it doesn't look too difficult?
It's not very difficult, however if you've never taken apart a mobile you might be in over your head. It's especially weird since it is a slider.
I have already tried taking mine apart just so I could see how it all goes... Its pretty simple really... Just waiting for my housing now

Spare Parts?
Question here,
My wife's Vox died, (not reading SIM and screen keeps going black), Is it worth trying to fix or should I just part it out? Having it repaired is almost as much as a new one.
Does anyone know where I can get another one at a fairly cheap price?
If anyone is interested in parts PM me.

The flex cable isn't seated properly? Make sure it clicks in and does not come out when you slide the QWERTY out.

i've taken the phone apart 3-4 times, double and triple checking all the connections. i dont know it its the lcd or just the flex cable.
I had the same problem. But I think h4waii is right. When I redid the thing it worked. And, by the way I was told by HTC service people in Delhi that the LCD would have to be replaced for the problem.
thats not the answer i was looking for but oh well. thanks for all the replies!! anyone know where i can find a cheap lcd??

S710 broken key - again

Today, my keypad broke between the green and the red phone button.
It's the tiny small connection on the absolute bottom of the keypad.
This is the second time this broke. Does anyone else has this same experience? Could this be happened by mis-use or is it just a weak point?
And if I send my phone to a service point, should I flash it with the default firmware or can I leave the custom "fast" firmware?
mine has broken thrice because of my ruff use..
I used superglue and it looks just like it was before..
i feel this is the best method other than replacing the keypad.

"Mine has broken 3 times because of misuse... I stick it with a <<fevi>> (I don't know what that is) stick and it lasts a long time.. that's the best method according to me"
Except for the "fevi" word it seems that this guy actually has a solution
Fevistick is a brand of instant superglue. only a drop is required(that too a small one). the drop dries in seconds...

Okay, thanks. Now I understand the whole story....
the 'fevi-stick' bit was too good maybe we ought to stick to generic brands like 'superglue'
anyways, i never had this problem ... been using the phone since 7 months now.
Me too...
Well I had that experience too. I almost lost my call button because of this. The Fevi-stick is the best option(other than replacing the keypad).

Here You have keyboards for 5.99$

Never Broken Key
Never had the problem, using for Nearly one year now, TOUCH WOOD!
BTW: better flash it with the original ROM, you know OEMs, they just need an excuse to avoid giving you warranty!
I also had the same problem and as said "mrushabh", bonds with an instant glue called Araldite and is working so far.
Good luck!!!
on my qwertykeypad my 'd' button stopped working. i have2 press it real hard in order 2 type a 'd' my 'space' is also now starting 2 give this problem.
s710 isn't put together that well
Unrelated comment but it seems the s710 isn't put together that well. I dropped mine once (while the protected cover was fitted) and the navigation buttons stopped working. Send it to the shop only to find the motherboard has cracked.. The second drop caused the whole qwerty keypad to come apart.
I guess there is no way to truly protect your phone.. Unless you bubble wrap it.
On my phone, the SD cover no longer fits (it expanded).
My keyboard also cracked in the middle. Sticked it with glue too.
And the grey polish on the answer button is off too.
One more thing, the sliding mechanism no longer stays in place.
Other than that, it`s a nice phone.
disassemble keypad
Hi,
I want to change nummeric keypad with new one and I read service manual. They show on the picture how to do disassemble total phone. But if I only want to replace keypad, is it necessary to open mobile case, or is it enough, to pull keypad in upper direction like on the photo (see attached picture) ?
Has anyone experience in replacing keypad ?

Just order and replace with the standard manual that's all over the internet.
The keypad is the only thing you can replace easy.

I think you don't need to change keypad similar problem I have lived. Check this thread :

I think you have a screen protector, by default keypad has factory default protector. Firstly you can remove your protector, then factory default, after that you can use any protector suits for this area.

Spare parts inside....

Hello everyone, I considered putting this in the marketplace but it makes 100% more sense to have it here.
I'm selling my faulty nexus one for spare parts so if anyone needs a part of the phone (except the PCB that the microusb sits on)
give me a PM and we can come to some sort of arrangement, obviously undercutting ebay prices lol.
for example... lcd replacement, digitizer or camera, speaker, volume buttons etc.
I've got a weird one to ask about....
What about the bottom soft touch cover (that goes over the usb port)?
do you have the little black plastic piece that covers the bottom pcb? its got the little vibrator connected to it.
Mine is like slowing down and isnt as powerful and i think its the reason for my haptic feedback dying

Hi Magacamz! I wonder if you still have your LCD Replacement? For how much are you expecting to sell it? Would you send it using USPS International? If positive, we can arrange using Paypal or something similar...

It is literally the piece that goes over the USB port and gold power connectors on the bottom of the phone. It's the same material as the battery cover.
