Does HTC Repain Diamond?

Does HTC offer repair for diamond bought 2nd hand? Because my bro bought a diamond on ebay, was in mint condition however he thought a plastic was on the keypad and he tried to pull "what he thought was protective plastic" and now his keypad has a swatch problem and the left top side of his keypad is umm uplifted >.>

But I do not know if they will fix it, if it was bought on EBAY!

That's dishonest and only serves to drive up prices. Not to mention that if it's used then it's probably past the initial return period.

umm.. excuse me??

If it's not major I'd suggest polishing it out with a polish like displex or automotive t-cut?

+1 for the polishing, I did mine with some metal cleaner on a cotton bud, worked a treat.

he is Italian obviously
Here you can find a how-to for replacing the lense with a Sapphire one:
(German) http://www.android-hilfe.de/htc-desire/42428-how-desire-fotolinse-austausch-saphirglas-fuer-bessere-fotos.html
original lense should have these measures:
9,46mm & 0,51mm
BUT:
The TyTn II got a squarish lense, the Desire a round one. So no way to use this here
see this: http://www.elitezoom.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/12/htc_tytn_ii_double.jpg

bliblablub, thanks for the link!
Actually I'm managing to have some other italian guys in this forum:
http://www.hwupgrade.it/forum/showthread.php?p=33148790
to build up a number of people to order the sapphire glasses and reduce the cost...if any italian would like to join us, please jump in

Yea, nice idea!
In the mentioned thread there was another centralized order done Didn't receive it yet, but will soon.

Musta, cuz I took two minutes and found a replacement part for that... and even teardown instructions for the S3. (Not sure how good they were, I didn't read them, just saw them lol)

1 thread up ffs.

Not that I can tell. The fix is very easy, unscrew 7-8 screws put on replacement. Screws back in the back and profit.
Problem...can't find the damn replacement part that works for VZW and Samsung won't send a replacement part.

Do you wonder why you aren't getting a warm reception?
First there is this exact thread posted by someone else already going in this forum, at one point it was literally right on top of yours. Second is your attitude. Mistawolfe asked if you had googled it and you came back with a smart ass response...
Next time you're along for help lose the attitude if you really want someone to help you. Until then you can find your own part as far as I'm concerned.

I am glad I found this...I was going to order the international version as well because mine has a scratch on it.
Would really love a link as well..I have googled to no end. All I can find is the cemera replacement module itself.

Learn to use google and you can find the same sh*t I did. I didn't link it to you when I found it because your lack of respect to the people that were responding to your request for help.
Now are you done with your temper tantrum?

We all know how to use Google. Some of us were looking for help or solutions. Obviously we didn't find them on Google or this site. That's the reason for this thread. Please provide useful help and information. Don't think that's a lot to ask.

Welcome

Here is the link from jerryrigeverything. The phone aside from the speaker grill is fairly easy to repair by the looks of it

Good to see it's fully functional after the unrealistic abuse.. (I guess unless you run over it with a car)
