Where to buy a 'non-diamond' Diamond Backside

I'm starting to hate the faceted design of the Diamond backside.
Can anyone point me in the direction if getting a standard flat one? I

I'd like to know if this fits the Diamond. The front of the XDA is the Diamond so can't see why it won't fit???

The XDA has rounded corners, so it might not fit. It would be great if it did, though.
I also hate the faceted back. So I sand-papered mine down and then polished it with Plastic Scratch Remover. Started with 180-grain, then 600. I would have used 1200 before polish, but I was out. Now the back of my Diamond got a half-matte finish and it rests steady and flat on a table. Plus, I could fit a thin metal plate for use with my magnetic cell-phoneholder in my car. Though, I can't say it's as pretty as it once was anymore!

Blimey, that's a bit extreme!
I can't find a flat back anywhere. None that look right anyway.

Isn't the o2 XDA the same as the diamond with different back? not the HTC Victor?

Thought so - but 25 Pounds for a piece of 10 cents plastic - that is pure robbery

If you actually look at the Diamond, there is more designed than just the backside: the stylus and internal edges that go under each corner. In other words, it need a Diamond cover. Though it could still be flat of course. I look forward to a 3rd party flat, rough cover (a millimeter thicker with space a 1200+mah battery wouldnt hurt).

I know, but I couldn't wait. I needed to get it working with my car mount ASAP. I'm thinking that in a few months time you can get flat back-covers with replacements batteries with higher capacities quite cheap anyway, so I can replace the one I made ugly by then.
Besides, I bought my Diamond used and really cheap (1/2 retail) because of an already scratched back cover with baby teeth marks(!), so...

may i suggest you go into a phone shop and fob the virginal salesman off with a "just looking story " then try the back off an xda one. I have the mda compact (tmobs ) version which is lovely and flat and rounded so ill try it on me mates diamond on thursday to see if it fits if you want me too!

Good idea mate try it out and feedback if it works please

believe me, the XDA cover does not fit to the HTC back!
sad but true.

I really don't understand why the XDA Ignito back wouldn't fit to the HTC version i.e. the Diamond??? Its exactly the same phone!
In the case of the T-Mobile Compact IV, then there is NO WAY that the backs are interchangeable as its a DIFFERENT phone (specs might be the same but its a HTC Victor, NOT a Diamond).

But does it have the same internal design where the electronics meet the backside? That's the question. The "designed" backside is NOT just slapped on top a "generic" phone: the internals of the back of the phone is formed with the plastic backside.
I mean there is no doubt that 3rd party could produce a compatible back of any shape and design as long as it match this, but you cant just slap a totally different back on it that doesnt match the Diamond itself, even if it looks similar on the outside.

Why wouldn't it be the same internal design? After all, the front internal design must be the same to fit into the same front cover. Why make the manufacturing process harder? By this I mean, for the Diamond there is one internal style and for the Victor(Compact IV) there is another internal style. It would not make sense to introduce a third style for the XDA Ignito that is a combination of the 2.

I have a telus diamond and the back cover looks just like the the one here. http://www.expansys.com/p.aspx?i=172103

Interesting!...although 25 pounds for a cover is a bit of ripoff....
Does it use the same stylus as the normal diamond one?

Obviously, but is the *back* design the same (ie the design without the back cover)?
From the looks of the cover on the Expansys link, its not. There's no way that would fit a Diamond with the "real" Diamond back. The angles of the bottom area where the USB port resides is a dead giveaway: it doesnt match.

Here is a review of the O2 Ignito, it seems to be same as Diamond (P3700): http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/4wm-reviews-hardware/17424-review-o2-xda-ignito.html
The back is pricey, but so are the spare parts always.

The phone may be the same, but the back design is yet again different. The sides on my Diamond (HTC branded, Diamond back) have far greater angles on the bottom plate. Meaning, a back cover such as the 02 would leave two huge gaps on the side (same angles at the top so it would be hard to even get it to attach).
And that is what will make it fail. The corners arent at the same angles.
This is the O2 back internals:

CASES WONT MATCH PEOPLE!!! Close, but not the same.

Has anyone tried yet putting a XDA Ignito back cover on an HTC Diamond?

Armband

I have been searching for an armband for this phone, but so far I have found nothing, that is aside from the armbands for the Iphone and N1.
Has anyone found any compatible armband for jogging with this phone?

the generic armbands for iphone are compatible with SGS as well
is great, if you go out jogging often. or if you are biking.
just don't fall on the arm that got your phone if anything happens, protect the phone at all cost

For information, I had an iphone3GS with an armband from Belkin
I went for a quick run yesteray ( not even 21k ) and treied to use it for the Galaxy
Fortunately it can be streched because the galaxy is a little bit wider .. .but that's ok
It's a little bit longer so I was worried about sweat on the headphone plug but i looked OK
I was able to use the phone through the protection screen to look at map when I was lost even it is was not super accurate

I have the same iphone armband from Belkin. It is a squeeze but it fits without risking damage to the phone. I prefer a tight fit because I use the band upside down so that if I stop to change playlists then the phone is orientated in the right way to read the screen text.

cheers guys

I think I'm gonna try out one of these: http://www.xtrememac.com/Products/Sportwrap2/Sportwrap-for-iPhone-3GS---Black/

I hesitated to put it upside down for the same reason ( music and also for the map)
So you didn't have any problem ? I guess it's so tight that it won't move ??

hey guys
Just to confirm, is this the Belkin one you both have? model F8Z334-BLK
(i dont seem to be able to post links..)

Mine is looking like thisone :
http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=492884#

I bought the 3GS one but I thought it was too much of a tight fit, since I live in the Netherlands and I often have to put up with a bit of drizzle when I run, I was a little concerned.
Instead I found this one for the Ipod classic that might just do the trick
can't post the link due to my nooby status at this forum tho, but you can find it at the same belkin site at the ipod section

link? picture? or at least the name and model #?
i think something is missing

This is the only reference I could get
Part # F8Z504tt064
I haven't bought it yet though but from what I saw at the store it was a tad larger than the 3gs one
UPDATE: actually now I have been looking for armbands that may fit the evo, those seem to be a little easier to find.

according to the sizes:
SGS i9000 (our phone) = 122.4 x 64.2 x 9.9 mm
itouch = 110 x 61.8 x x 8.5 mm
iphone4 = 115.2 x 58.6 x 9.3 mm
these armbands fits perfectly
i like this one because is made of Neoprene front and back, and it's a full screen, so good for rainy days mostly waterproof except for torrential rain, but who is crazy enough to go out in such a storm?
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.41116 (double stich)
if you want a fully waterproof 100% get one of these instead
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.42413
they do work, i use it often when i go to the pool, just don't go diving with that in your arm, the sheer force will snap the armband off, no surfing either, just regular swimming is okay.
the next one up is this one
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.34197 (single stich)
but the front is made out of other material, that might crack after a few years of wear and tear, that kind of plastic used in the front will harden after a while.
they have more selections and colours
http://www.dealextreme.com/search.dx/search.armband
but those are the only models i like for our SGS i9000

HTC Evo = 122 x 66 x 13
I just picked one up on ebay for the Evo 4G, and it fits fine

Got the iphone 4 one from dealextreme. Its a bit short for the Galaxy S, but it works.
However, there is one thing that dont work. Who do they use as model for wearing these armbands? I don't exactly have bodybuilder biceps, but so far all straps have been a bit short. I dont think they would be long enough with a year of lifting steel...
The Belkin one for ipod classic was also a tight fit, and have the same problems as the dealextreme. A bit short, a bit small transperent area for the screen and way too short strap. Build quality far better. A Belkin armband molded on the SGS and with a bit longer straps would be great. Even better if there was some sort of secondary attachment in case the velcro failed.

wow you are the first one that thinks those straps are short
most people i've heard talk about those / reviews complais the straps are too long
LOL
no i don't know which side of the story is more realistic.
i was reading some here or if not on the reviews at deal extreme, the guy had to endup cutting the extra slack because it was too long.
i've not purchased mine yet, but i'll be buying one soon
i like the waterproof one, and i also want a regular one for normal use

Have spoken to these guys and their armband specific to Galaxy S will be availbale mid/end Sept.
e-bay uk seller innov8-gb-ltd

Oh nice, thanks for that, will be getting one for sure.

Brodit active holder for DHD

I haven't seen any posts for DHD in regards to this and since this barnd is the most advertised and most positive-commented, I'd like to add my negative comments so that everyone is aware.
First of all, before I bought it, I've read the best comments about it as being the best choice. For me, it was the worst product I could buy and at such a high price which cannot be explained. This is why:
1) Hard to slide in and once in its place, the phone is so firmly fixed in the holder that you need tools to remove it. I always end up fighting with it to get out and the result is that always the sim cover gets off and stays fixed in the holder. The sides of the phone also start showing wear/scratch signs. This is the most unacceptable problem for a priduct of that price.
2) The provided proclip (special mount for specific car model) for one of my cars doesn't stay fixed on my car. It is so long and so thin and its corners are so badly aligned that even the adhesives don't come in contact with the console plastic and each time I try to take my phone off the holder, the whole mount comes off. With my other car for which the mount is smaller, it's ok bad still unacceptable for the price I paid overall.
Having read this, don't buy this product.

Thats a pity; I've been using a generic suction-cup mount in my car but was planning on purchasing a Brodit as I'd had no problems with the previous one I had for my Touch Pro 2.
I had a similar problem with the car mount half of it; it was supposed to mount over the air vent but would 'slip-off' if you hit a bump on the road. I fixed this with a heat gun, bending the mount to give it a firmer grip.
If the Brodit mount is a bad idea for the Desire HD, can anyone recommend a better option for the car than a clunky generic plastic lump I've got attached to my windscreen?

I bought a Brodit Active Holder for my DHD and I've had no problems fitting and removing the phone from it. If anything, when I slot the phone into place, there is a bit of a gap between the bottom of the phone and the holder so you can see part of the cable connector has not fully gone into the phone. Still charges though, just looks a bit irritating.
Other than that Im pleased with it, no fit or removal problems whatsoever

Sorry to hear that, you were unlucky. I bought mine off eBay Uk last week. It was a Uk seller called drivesafeandlegal2. I dont have enough posts to post a link unfortunately. I done a search under 'brodit desire hd'
Free delivery and package arrived in a couple of days.

For those who bought the Brodit carholder and its to tide ( like antenna cover gets stuck) you can solve it.
Take sandpaper with a very tiny grain and start sanding the edges of the sides. Make the sharp edges round and sand it with some water so that the surface and edges gets smooth ( even more smooth then original).
After this is done you don't see a difference in color or you don't mess up your holder as long the sandpaper is a P400 or lower and apply water in the end.
Mine looks like new and phone slides in without pushing until it reach the usb port.
No fuss with antenna cover and much more safe scratching your phone.

[Q] Handson Mazda 6 handsfree/holder ?

I am getting my new car - a 2004 Mazda 6 with a bluetooth parrot installed so that part should be taken care of...
However when i need to use the satnav on the phone i need a holder that FITS the MAzda 6 dash..
I have had a look at the Brodit holders - either they block the info screen of the Mazda or they cover the air vents - both of which is a great big 'no' from my point of view.
Has anyone inhere got a Mazda 6 and have a cradle they would recommend that doesent look like cheap crap or something out of a horror movie ?
It it ok that it is a universal holder as the missus got a Wildfire - so if it could hold that as well - that would give me wife points so a passive holder is probably what i am looking for.
So - anyonme with actual experience with anything that looks good ?

I use a Clingo Universal Car Phone Mount in my Lexus IS250. It doesn't look too bad. It holds the wife's DHD in a silicone case. It says it won't work on silicone based cases but it does. And I use mine without a case and it works perfect.
Also should the "pad" lose it's stickiness just run under hot water and rub with your finger, dry it and it's as good as new.

This is definately one to consider!
I was looking for something more permanent though that could be installed somewhere on the dash. If that is not possible - then this is the one i will get...
Thank you for your reply

I was looking for exactly the same, this was purely an interim purchase. But It works very well and isn't limited to a particular handset model, so for me it's a keeper.

it's really nice thing

Ok it's ordered from ebay...lets see if it's as good as the video claims (never seems to be the case but lets try it anyways)

I think I got mine for about £16 off ebay.

I had similar issues with Brodit's ProClips in that the one they sold for my 2005 MG ZS didn't actually fit anywhere like what their installation diagrams suggested.
I found DashMount, however, who manufacture similar style mounts, but out of more solid metal sheeting and often in totally different locations to Brodit's mounting.
Have a look at this:
http://www.dashmount.co.uk/index.ph...applicable-with-dealer-fitted-CD-upgrade.html

Alright - so i recieved the Clingo universal hands-free mount - and what a load of ####!
It simply cannot hold the DHD if i have the cig plug charger plugged in it - it falls out of the holder within 2 minutes.
So that was 15£ wasted

Seriously?
Does it fall off the green pad? I've yet to have it fall off the pad. Sometimes it sticks that firmly I struggle getting it off. And is that with your case on?
It could be that the wife's case isn't silicone.

i dont have a silicone case on - it's just the bare phone and nothing more.
I have not yet tried with the wifes wildfire
3 seperate times the phone fell off the holder - and all 3 times it was when i had the charger plugged in. If i leave the charger out i think it can hold it - but then i dont have any more power left on the phone if/when i drive listening to music and using satnav etc
So i think im looking again for a holder that has some gripping arms of some sort - maybe an active holder - i dunno yet...
This clingo holder is not in the glove box - and it stays there...

Hello there,
I bought / use this holder. It perfectly fits the phone, sadly without any type of case. It can be rotated 360 degrees. It can also be found without the gooseneck holder, or with a fixed arm. It has holes for the camera, flash and speaker. The suctioncup is amazing, it is sticking on the windshield for almost a month now. The only anoying thing about the gooseneck is that it bounces around alot because of the weight of the phone. Probably the fixed arm is better but I had no choise.
Good Luck,
Ivan.

I have found an inexpensive and very reliable one that I have been using with my Nokia 6120 classic to my HTC Desire HD 40mm to 110mm adjustment.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ox2m7tramdY
Now the one I have is exactly the same but I got it from Media Markt in Germany and it has been with me no less than 10 times across the pond. Thus far its been perfect BUT it is not wide enough for landscape mode unless I rotate the whole thing.

Exogear Exomount (Universal Car Phone Holder)

I purchased one of these to hold my phone and was sick of changing mounts every time i got a new phone.
http://www.exogear.com/products-exomount-car-mount-holder.html
Its basically a normal suction mount with a little bit of a sticky surface that does not come off on anything. The DHD fits fine and i haven’t had it fly off or wobble as i am driving or turning (and yes i turn sharp at high speeds).
This is probably (apart from a proclip) one of the best universal mounts i have used. The proclip is my choice as its solid and fixed but requires work, this on the other hand is my second choice as i can stick it anywhere in my car and have it suck down without leaving a mark and not have to mess around changing clips.
Features:
•Exomount’s patented suction technology enables you to mount on almost any flat surface such as car dashes, glass, wood, metal,
plastics and even drywall!
•Polyurethane lined grip keeps your phone or GPS safe and secure
•Quickly and easily mount and unmount your phone or GPS with our stylish clip grip holder
•Mounts all smart phones and GPS devices up to 5-inch screens
•Multi-angle rotation for your preferred viewing angle

cheers for the thread
does anyone use this with an otterbox (or similar) case? I'm thinking of buying one of these as there is zero options available for a DHD with a case
also any issues with the patented stick technology or whatever its called becoming not so grippy after x weeks/months?

Try slipgrip mounts for otterbox cases. You can find it on ebay also.

Non mine is still sticky now, i don’t think it is supposed to be super sticky as the gel and stick i think improves the suction. I just purchased another because they are pretty good and it doesnt need to be on a flat surface to work at all.

I've read that vibration might be an issue... we have very bumpy roads where I'm at so I wouldn't like it to be all over the place...
Any further info about this please?

I think there is a video review which says this but i have tried this on a Samsung Galaxy S2, Iphone4,Desire HD and Sensation and it is perfectly fine on bumpy roads. The clamp is strong enough to hold it. You will get the same jigger on say a tomtom or any other mount.
The reason why the clamp is the size it is, so when holding onto phones it doesnt press any buttons on the side of the phone.
Quality isnt that bad for its price and i would think its the best universal mount i have used in a car, i have used many mounts but this one has lasted the longest and seems very promising.
You can even rotate it and mount a tablet in your car!

I have ordered mine from eBay.. will post report as soon as I receive the delivery...
Sent from my Desire HD

I'm a new user of it too, and love it !
Question for you:
Since my dash is not completely straight so I can't put it there (even so it lasts about 1 day), I'm putting it on the windshield, but the arm is so short that I can't find a good place for it.
I put it meanwhile just a lil bit below the mirror, but on a way that the top of the phone is kinda behind the mirror, otherwise its too far and too hard to reach it.
I tried many other places but none was good enough.
Its or too far or blocking the road.. :\
Where do you put it? and where do you suggest me to put?
Thanks,
Yarden.

what a piece of junk! i tried it last night and couldn't find ANY spots in my car (newish 2004) where it would stick! I haven't tried the windshield yet. It literally would stay in place a few seconds then fall. did anyone else get this? perghaps i installed it wrong. is it just a case of taking the white ring protector off the stick part then putting on a surface? or did i not do something?

I wonder how safe this would be if mounted on dash and you break suddenly.

Try Herbert Richter universal mounts if you're still after an option to use with otterbox case.

I've had mine for several weeks now.
It sticks everywhere.
I use mine with a Otterbox Commuter Case and it fits well.
Vibration is a small issue, though.

the Herbert Richter universal mounts is bulky with the arm, the exo gear mount is good btu if the clamp had a few extras to secure it better it would be 10/10

The quality feels like it is kinda flimsy, but after using it, it feels tough.. i used to be kinda careful with it but these days i just grab and twist it and it definitely doesn't feel like it's gonna fall apart.
The ball bit that it rotates on did get a bit dirty on mine and it got quite hard to rotate it, but just clean the bit of it you can see (no need to take apart) and then it should be all good again. That's only happened once to me, and i literally just wiped with a dry finger and wiggled it about a bit and its fine again.

I was JUUUUST about to buy one, but because I live in Australia, shipping + handling is $49 alone!
Does anyone recommend any other mounts, without the massive shipping charge?
Apart from ebay cheapies.

I do not mind if you send me cash paypal etc to handle the purchase and shipping for you? If you like i can weigh the actual device (without packaging) which will make it cheaper and price up on royalmail web site air mail signed for etc?

Got one of those
I got the exogear holder about a month ago, and i can recommend it to anyone.
Sticks nice to many surfaces, the phone is not slipping down, can be used with a phone of any size (or a gps device)
The only down side is that you have to use both hands to place your phone into the holder.

so it holds the note fine ?
