me too pre, wrong section coz mine is Uni but im a native of Bulacan as well, no choice again red .
to myxXx, have you tried to check greenhills for knocked out units? there are stalls over there selling parts of xda or busted unit for parts? if to no avail, try to call dopod service center at 7283388 and hopefully they might give you a better answer to your queries, as in where and how much, like what i did before when i needed my xda IIi back cover to be replaced. luckily, someone called me thereafter and presto.. the rest is history.
the above info, notwithstanding, i strongly suggest that you pm red and let him do the rest
dont worry red, i wont ask for commission, a bottle of beer will do

Bro log on to www.airfagev.com. Go to the forums and look under accessories thread. There is a member named "artic", he sells parts and accessories for all kinds of pda phones. last time i checked available brand new xda2 housing at 1800-2000. You can pick it up at any LRT/MRT station that you both agree upon or he can mail it to you. there is also a member named "kulas_sap" who repairs pda phones. my xda2 had a broken charging slot and I could not have it repaired anywhere for 2 years until I got in touch with them. he charges cheap and may guarantee.

Don't know. The site is legit. I gave them no personal information except my address. Said I was good to go. But like I said, I didn't get to select a headset type. It did it auto and didn't say which one.

So 1saleaday didn't clue you in. OP was several days ago. Move on.
I actually use this site a lot now. Even though the blue tooth headset deal is over now.
Got mine today. Not a Bluetooth. Itis a wired set... And I think it may have been used....
Oh yeah.....Got mine today. See the pics bellow. I knew it was wired. But the thing ain't new. Gross. Lol - It was free and I want my money back... Not to mention the plug is like 3.5 or something and not usuable on the inspire. Haha
That's totally different from mine. It's branded Verizon and has a big mic boom.
With as much time as we spend on here, did you ever wonder what everyone looks like.
Does MZ really look like Bogey?
Is 3rdstring really meditating in lotus pose on a rock?
Does LibertyMonger carry a musket around with him all the time (actually I don't want to know the answer to this one).
I was thinking that we could put quick pix of what we look like, so that we get a better sense of identity in an anonymous forum.
Want to? If so, please only real pictures please.
Edit: Mobile app is buggy today, so I'll upload mine later on. Can't start a thread about what you look like and not post my own pix.
Mine has been taken down as of today.

How much did you know 6months or a year ago. We can't all be MZ or Fjfalcon (much respect), but we all contribute something, if only as much as a hand hold through something. Case in point LM and me today on Bravo.
That was Rev, MZ and HM for me a year ago and not once did they flame me for asking a question.

Well Rev accused me of being a troll once, I was new and on khal's V4 I seen 4g signal on my phone and I asked about it wondering how or what he did, I assumed he tweaked the radio and got us 4g! I didn't know **** about radio's then didn't know it was impossible all I know is I seen it lmao! Then after he accused me of trolling others came forward and were saying they seen it too so it was just a mystery after that. But I swear I was showing 4g signal! lmao

I'm not sure if it is possible to create a higher capacity battery while still keeping the same dimensions of the original battery. If it was that simple, shouldn't HTC have done this themselves?

OK so to answer your question there is a way to change the battery say it becomes unusable, (Direct from T-Mobile tech support ) you can bring in the device to a service store and they can replacement it for you or upgrade it with an extended version that's made for it and there is a battery / case you can buy that fits over the device and doubles the life of the existing battery and protects the device at the same time.
Once I get mine in the mail this week (buy one get one free, I got two) I'll pull one apart and try to change out the sdcard to a 32gb (I guess it's gotta be cut on the left side to fit) and I'll report back with how I do.
But for the short answer, No and No with a side of lost topic abuse. Good luck...........

Actually it's been done already but I'm having a hard time finding the read through on it again but it shows you how to cut the SDCard ( along the side , it has to match the one taken from it.) so that it will fit the holder it locks into, it's not like the standard slot it actually has a plate over it.
If I find the breakdown again I'll post it but it actually doesn't look that hard to do but I think it didn't matter what kind of card it had to be as long as the casing was cut correctly.
I'm just not going to let this 32 gb SDCard go to waste even if I ruin one in the process I'll try anything once. I have pretty good hands though and because I'm use to soldering boards I think it shouldn't be too bad.
(If the information I got was correct too, you never know with the Net though.)
The information about the battery is valid though a tech at T-Mobile did say there is a battery that is made that will fit the case that you can upgrade it too but I didn't ask how much.

I'm very curious about this. I did a search last night, but couldn't find anything. Saw many interior pics but nothing w/ a card visible.
Any idea where you saw it?
The speeds from the internal storage are way faster than a typical micro sdhc, I'm not convinced that someone will find an sd card slot in there

The exact site we bought from i couldnt tell you, probably amazon or something similar. I watched a few videos a month or so back on how to replace a broken screen. I also have extensive assembly training in a comoetitive factory setting so i got really good at understanding hiw things go to gether as well as come apart. The tools i needed i had already but tools came with the screen i ordered(bonus). All in all after relatively minor hassel with screws (that were already stripped, im guessing it was a refab phone) i got the whole thing apart. I took my time and double checked all my work against videos from youtube. Delicacy must be taken when handling the removal of the ribons from the mother board, a whole circut needs to be lifted clear in order to take the heat sink/chassis from beind the actual lcd or whatever its called. Took the screen from the old glass in 4 very well place lifts and put it in the new frame/glass and rebuilt. I will research my youtube links in the am and post. My wife is yelling bedtime.
