Help us find one
@pvillasuso: nope, not case or cover, the whole housing, like picture from tidy
i read that there is a white desire , so you can find the white cover ,,try ebay
I like white Desire as well, this is closed i got to...
What, how come Desire comes in only one color? :S
I have a white Desire, and believe me - you don't want one!
After having it in my pocket for a few hours, the bottom corners were grubby - and because it has the soft touch plastic feel, its impossible to clean.
I've got a Zagg protector and now have it in a silicone skin type case. If I was to buy another one, I'd either go for the silver one - or the UK Exclusive black one on the Orange network. Not a fan of brown.
Anyone know if you can buy a silver housing instead?

you also don't want a silver one, mine became brown within 1 month. don't use it in a black beltholder or sleeve. it wil become brownish/black instead of silver
I've got a white one and i like it. It looks pretty cool with a green hard case on aswell

Instead of telling us what we want, care to suggest a place to buy one?
i saw at my local htc shop the white desire.. it was a christmas exclusive only. you might be able to find the case parts, but people have said b4, it dirties easily.
Here: http://techielobang.com/blog/2010/11/30/htc-releasing-white-edition-htc-desire-for-christmas/
Where to buy one? Nex Serangoon HTC Concept Store (for those in S'pore)
Assuming you mean Singapore, its pretty safe to say the majority of us do not live there.
Unfortunately yes. Still hunting online for you guys though, but I'm not that lucky..

Hey,
in the meantime, i've found the Front and The Back case, but still searchin' for the Antenna / Bottom Cover, only found that in black:

Someone can get that in white? then i've found all Parts to change my Desire to a white one

Yes, I have seen a desire being dismantled looked quite tricky, I have also swapped cases before on previous phones but I wouldn`t want to risk it on my desire. But then again a white desire looks amazing

Hey everyone,
I've been shocked to see only Google's Nexus One came with a cute android pouch while the other phones, well... didn't come with one.
My friend has a G2 and I want to get her a pouch as a small gift. I found one on eBay but not sure if the material is similar to the N1's pouch. Can anyone confirm?
LINK: (darn, I can't post links yet) (but its only ebay)
and do you think I can add stitchings to the pouch? Is there, perhaps, a site that offers android pouches as well as stitchings?
Thank you in advance
The mytouch has pouches too

I use this case from Proporta:
http://www.proporta.com/F02/PPF02P05.php?t_id=4791&t_mode=des
I actually originally bought it for my Nokia N95, and it's such a universal size that it even fits my G2! It's made of leather and has a nice felt (or something like it) lining inside to keep the phone from scratches and stuff. I've dropped this phone and my N95 while in the case quite a few times and it's saved the phone from getting scratched or dinged. I really love the thing a lot, and it comes in nice colors too. Here's a picture of my G2 in it:

Ohh thanks for the picture!
I use the pouch that came with my old G1.
Second. Using my G1 pouch; the G2 fits perfectly (thinner, but the wider profile picks up the slack), and it's a little badge for those who've been with Android since the beginning.
I have one from my camera I'm using. I used to hide other stuff in it before but its good for the phone.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Using my G1 case too, perfect fit.
There are 2 pouches on this website: http://shop.htcpedia.com/t-mobile-g2/accessories/cases/pocket-pouches.html I like the HTC one.
I've ordered from them and they ship really fast, my package was shipped on a Tuesday from NY and got delivered here in IL on Thursday.
G1 pouch for the win.

Sweet, you're right. Gonna wait for my knock off nexus one pouches from Hong Kong first. If they sucks, I'll grab one of these.
I use the pouch that came with my n1. the phone got stolen, but the case lives on.
I would highly recommend the official HTC Desire Z slip pouch. It's amazing, minimal, and protects the phone really well. I had an issue with the color of the rubber portion of the phone changing color from using a black case, but this HTC pouch has a light gray cloth interior (and black leather exterior) which has not compromised the phone is any way. It's perfect. $12.99 (no shipping) from Expansys-usa.com... you can probably find it other places as well.
For the people with the sensation already - Do you have any scratches yet?
Hi,
No, not even a scuff. I do use my HD2 pouch though.

He probably means this one -- I have one which came with my HTC Leo and I notice my brother has an identical one with his HD2. The annoying this is my Galaxy SII sticks about 5mm out the top.

Hi Pagnell,
Thanks for that, yes thats the one. I've edited my post with a link in it too.
Nice to see someone else who had a Philips Diga. My god times have changed since having 1 line of scrolling SMS text!
Thanks for the replies guys. I'm gonna try to order one of those.
I see this one on amazon in USA. HD2 pouch.
I use the one from my old HD2 as well, funnily enough. I also have one of those belt pouches that the phone slides into and the top folds over it from my HD2 and of course it fits perfectly, ideal for going out with this size of phone and not wanted to bend it (as I once did with my HD2 and was terrified when the screen went mental...but it corrected itself).
The HD2 stuff fits well on these which is handy because there's precious little around right now that does, like a Brodit car cradle? Can't get them yet and I dont want one of the cheap generic ones that drops the phone when you go over a speed ramp.
The very top of the Sensation shows in this pounch but thats handy because the LED's then show. No need to remove it to check for messages
I have a SGS Vibrant for almost a year now, there might be one TINY scratch that I can see if I turn the screen off and tilt it into the light just right... aka doesn't matter...
Yesterday to prove gorilla glass to a friend who is a bit behind in the times I took a knife and tried to scratch part of the border of the screen to no avail.
The stuff still breaks ok though. Had to have one phone replaced because it slipped out of my hand onto a tile floor screen down. But scratching is difficult at the minimum.
hd2 rubber skin
anyone know if the rubber case that came with the HD2 will work on the sensation?

I was looking for battery doors for my HTC Sensation and I came across this nice looking one
http://cgi.ebay.com/ORIGINAL-OEM-HT...I&otn=5&po=LVI&ps=63&clkid=719848830771970651
I wonder if it will work the same as the one that comes with the Sensation. It looks a lot better in my opinion
looks great. can't wait til they start making some that aren't dual tone and without that ugly curve design.
1. @ $81 it's kind of spendy
2. Does not look the same as our battery covers, will antennas work fine?
3. Definitely better design then TMOUS ugly tri-colored one.
Thanks for the info
You know that's the housing AND the battery door (three pieces) right? I saw just the back cover selling on ebay for around $52.
Here is the back only
http://cgi.ebay.com/REPLACEMENT-BATTERY-COVER-HTC-SENSATION-/320715342088?pt=UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item4aac1fc108
It is still rather expensive, even considering how it needs to have the antennas.
I'm hoping it will come down in price once more sellers get into it. However this has helped me decide that I won't use a case for the back (was just looking for an excuse to swap backs covers)
Not bad. But yeah I'm going to wait till it get lower
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
Who need case after that? If it scratches then just replace cover (they will get cheaper) which is the whole body! How cool is that!
It's awesome! But what happens if you drop the phone? I like using a case for shock absorption!
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
You definitely make a valid point BonesRed.
However in order to achieve good shock absorption the case would add more bulk than I would ever consider using. The thickest case product I use on phones are the variety of 'skins' or 'shields', and those offer almost no shock absorption value.
Also this gives me an excuse to swap the tri-colored back for one that is dual-colored, which IMO looks better and prob should have been released this way in the first place.

I love the stock back, im surprised so many hate it.
Someone should make a battery cover with a protective rubber layer already attached.
Anybody knows where to get the back cover for t-mobile with 3 antenna connectors on top part? I placed an order with waresphere and they told me they don't have it in stock and raising the price when it becomes available.
Hello, first excuse my english I'm french.
I do not know if any of you to change the casing of the sensation, but no longer mine, if somebody is selling the original. I am close to you buy it, Thanks
I hope the price goes down in the next few months, i'll get one eventually

Hey guys,
Just in case you need to replace your digitizer (glass) or back battery cover you can get them here: digitizer is $68.99 and the back battery cover is $39.99
http://cnn.cn/shop/sensation-digitizer-p-11676.html
http://cnn.cn/shop/sensation-housing-p-12347.html
Nice find! It's pretty nice that a new "battery cover" refreshes the entire phone body.
I'm waiting for some custom backings since it is basically the whole body. I'm thinking dark red on the metal and the black plastic used in the bottom half for both
EDIT: Crude Photoshop of what I want

That's actually pretty sweet. I burgundy/wine is one of my favorite colors I think I would go for that color or the all black one with chrome/silver middle piece like the one in the other thread
Looks good flippy I wouldnt mind that color or in white
Poor me. I just dropped my Sensation and the glass shattered. Is there any experience with this only shop in terms of speed of shipping and reliability?
Does anyone know if it's do-able to replace the screen by yourself?

Oh man, really feel for you. Have a look on Desire forums for tutorial, obviously it's going to be different, but at least it'll give you some idea. It is doable.
Thanks man. I'll have a look on the Desire forum, I owned one before so I'm kinda familiar there.
I'll also browse youtube for Desire digitizer replacements.
New sources...
It would be sweet to modify a back cover...I found this on Amazon for the back cover and front bezel but the prices are pretty expensive...

Very nice find.
How hard is it to fit the digitizer? I dropped mine today and it's shattered - very disappointed, the first time I've dropped a phone in two years and this happens.
hjkl;' why no delete?
Found the digitizer on eBay for $30 delivered
Been dealing with cnn.cn since my Sony Ericsson days. Closest thing to OEM IMO sans pricing lol.
I got a digitizer for a sony ericsson phone years ago and it's spot on, just my error in putting that crap back without the proper adhesive was my issue lol.
They didn't have installation instructions at all, you have to go online to see if anyone has done it yet and do a write up in a forum or youtube, not sure if that changed though.

Hey man ! sorry for bringing up an old thread, Did you get the digitizer of ebay ? What was / is it like, Have you fitted it ?
Can you notice thats its an after-market product or is it exactly the same ?
Got my misses the sensation 2 weeks ago, She dropped it today and smashed the screen, The phone is still useable, its just the outer glass is shattered. And i am thinking of fixing it myself on the cheap.
She complains all the time about wanting a nice new phone. I get her one and she thinks its a bouncy ball !!
When I dropped my HD2 a while back, I sent it to someone to have it fixed, for a little over $80 USD. They did a splendid job and return shipping was free, although I had to ship it to them. Took them 1 day to fix, and I got my phone back in 2 days.
Walked into a local Tmobile store and I noticed that the Charcoal variant had a somewhat soft touch on the back cover. I chose the white because I didn't know anything about this soft touch, and the white is just straight plastic.
Has anyone been able to find the stock back covers for sale anywhere?
I have spoken to a friend who works for samsung, and the black or white cover will be available soon, just the price has not been confirmed, anyone looking for the release of the gold or blue cover, apparently it has been delayed, samsungs reason is that if the cover are availble now, many people will just get the black phone and buy the extra cover, and the samsung will not meet the sales demand when the blue or gold one is released in certain countries.

They are made of special plastic but touch like leather. I look forward to color custom back cover.

Damn, def want the blue one but its a bit pricey for what it is
The white Note 3 back was the same way. Felt way different from the black. I've read that this is to make the white resistant to dirt and marks. I imagine it's the same reason for the S5.

So, I was about to buy a blue one (I have a white s5). I love the rubbery/leathery feel of the black one. Does anyone know if these blue covers have the rubbery/leathery feel? Can anyone comment on them please?
