hi there,
through this thread here, i have found this battery for the captivate. but i cannot find something like that in canada.
at least not for a decent price, as demonstrated by the seidio products - about which i'm also skeptical because of what people say in the reviews.
can anybody here help me out? :/
its called ebay.CA for canada
and try searching XDA/Captivate/Accessories for "battery" theres several threads already.
I wrote one~!
really? ebay.ca? you don't think i've tried that?
but i must admit, i did not know that there was an accessories subsection because i knew there was android development and here this "general", so i did not even think there could be a more appropriate section. sorry about that.
but whether i'll actually find something there... i'll see, i suppose.
ebay.ca that where i bought my extended battery! you obviously didnt search well...
here let me do it for you
http://shop.ebay.ca/i.html?_nkw=cap...battery&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
21 results including the sedio expensive ones
yeah... i'd post an ebay link as well, if i could. because what you just arrogantly threw at me was not what i asked for. you obviously didn't read my first posting well.
"but i cannot find something like that in canada."
i'm not big on buying stuff from china that takes forever to ship and where i have to deal with people who might only understand a third of what i'm saying.
that's why i asked about canadian sources from the very beginning. and the possibly better quality.
jeez, what a nice welcoming.
I doubt you'll find any extended batteries in stores locally, just order it from ebay, all the auctions are in english.
hi all.
i'm looking for the real one, the original, the authentic one.
i already tried on ebay but they all are, at best, just close to the original quality...
i contacted htc europe and htc america but both said they don't know anything about the pouch
i finally read google forums but we all know that it is not so easy to get a google answer...
sorry but... who built it?
sources and links are appreciated,
thanks...
A friend of mine recently got the original pouch from HTC USA for free...

Thank you for your prompt response. Unfortunately, HTC does not manufacture any accessories for our devices. They are all made by third party companies. Therefore, we have no way of knowing exactly which neoprene case you are referring to or who makes it. You would need to know the manufacturer of that case and check their site to see if it is still in production. However, here are some additional sites that you can check. Your best option might be the Amazon link as they have the largest number of resellers linked to their site. Shop America - http://www.shopamerica.htc.com/homebrands/index.htm Amazon.com - http://www.amazon.com/cell-phones-s...b/181-6435952-2642542?ie=UTF8&node=2335752011 Expansys - http://www.expansys-usa.com/ HTC Depot - http://www.htcdepot.com/ DayDeal - http://www.daydeal.com/home.php?cat=5452 NOTE : We do not recommend purchasing accessories from online auction sites, or little known resellers outside of the US and Canada. We deeply regret any inconvenience this may cause you, and we hope that you are able to locate the case you need from one of these sites. As always, we are here to answer any technical questions or concerns you may have between 6am to 1am EDST, 7 days a week for your convenience, or by phone at 1-866-449-8358.

could you ask him what did he do?
thanks...
When I was still under the 1 year warranty that comes for free from HTC, i called inquiring about my phone. I then asked if they sold oem headphones & pouch, he replied with they're covered too. He sent me new pair of headphones and pouch.

well, i would also be willing to pay for it...
I called HTC in the first week of January 2011 and managed to get a new battery cover and battery just as my warranty expired. But they claimed they were totally out of pouches and redirected me to the accessories phone line and web site. The original pouch is not on that site. My pouch is getting seriously shredded up... so sad.
People actually use those?
I think I put my phone in it on day 1, put the pouch back in the box and never looked at it again.
I just tried the 1 888 216 4736 line (which BTW has been taken down from HTC's site) and went to the warranty department. I explained that I was looking for this specific accessory which did not seem to be on sale anywhere, and which came in the box with my now out-of-warranty phone.
She put me on hold for a little while, and eventually did say that the pouch was available to be sent out as a replacement. I was willing to pay for it due to my warranty being over, but she said that didn't seem to come up on any of the screens she saw. So now I have an order number and a replacement is supposed to arrive. I'll let you know if it ever shows up!
I wonder if it's stretchy enough that it'd fit over an HTC Sensation with some coaxing.

Lol yeah I can see why... its a bit geeky to say the least and can be a bit annoying to use.
On the other hand I DO use my everyday since I got the phone (only got my N1 this January though (a bit outdated then I know)) and its brilliant! Keeps the phone really well protected from drops and scratching! Honestly if you still have yours and don't use another case anyway I would highly recommend using it!
I use mine more now than I ever have. I've had two otterbox cases break on me and I don't feel like dishing out the money to buy a new one, so I've just been using the pouch that came with the phone.
Here's one I found on eBay...
http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Original-Ne...ccessories&hash=item3363efd4b5#ht_2248wt_1163
Mine has never been out of the box, but I might be tempted to sell it if they're going for $100!
My replacement arrived from HTC! The part number on the packing slip is 70H00221-00M, for what it's worth.

interesting, via email they don't know what we are asking about and via phone they send it for free!
is there any plausible explanation?
im sorry if im posting in the wrong part of the forum... but as it seems there are users from all over the world so i would like to ask if anyone knows where i can buy accessories for my sensation in bulgaria or a company that i can order from that wont rip e off? im located in plovdiv..
You have a choice-you can purchase them through HTC website itself but you are paying quite a bit of money.Alternatively there are loads on e-bay BUT you cannot go near anyone who has a feedback less than 99.7%.What are you after exactly as there are specials on extra batteries at present (check the battery and read the info) so you know you are gettig the correct model and it shoud be MODEL NO BG 58100.Charging docks are avail as are all other accessories.if in doubt you can always e-mail HTC direct and they will give you a call but you have to give them a time and day you are home.You may have some difficulty with some Sellers who may not sell to your Country.Any questions,let me know.Good luck
I purchased an HTC Sensation from someone on eBay about a month and a half ago. It works great, but I'm having issues with dust under the glass on the screen. I contacted HTC and they checked on the phone, it is still under warranty. The tech at HTC told me that there would be a fairly hefty (over $100) charge if there was other than original software on the phone. I contacted the seller to ask if everything was original and he confessed that the phone is s-off and rooted. I was not told this at the time of purchase, nor did I know to ask, so I guess I'm the dumb one.
I'm at a loss. I really don't know what that all means. I don't want to do anything to ruin my phone, but I'd like to get the dust problem fixed. It's very annoying and very obvious.
I've looked on the forums here and have read posts about this, but I am far from tech savvy and it's like reading a foreign language. All I can think is that I'll ruin my phone if I try anything and then I'll be out the $400 that I paid for it. Is it even possible to get the phone back to what it was originally if I don't know what was exactly done to it by the other owner? Also, is it going to ruin my phone to have this software on it?
I'd appreciate any help or advice that you can give.
Thank you!
Jen

you can flash the stock tmobile rom and then s-on again for warranty returns/services. You can look here for a little more info but if you're not comfortable with the process i wouldn't suggest it.
Why is the tablet sold out every where all of a sudden? I am going crazy waiting for my HTC 10 so I decide today after looking for probably 3 months that I am going to pull the trigger and buy the shield tablet to have while waiting for my phone, and look now they all sold out? Is this just my bad luck? While searching for one to buy I am also seeing a lot of comments about the recall.... does this have something to do with it? As a side note if anyone knows where I can order one right away for same price as Nvidia let me know. Nvidia said they would be having them again in a couple days so i am not really willing to pay too much more.
is it really needed to create another thread? You asked the same thing some days ago already. It would - apart from that - be really handy to know where you are living, as the availability may differ between countries.

No I didnt ask the same thing... I only decided to buy the thing today so that is not possible... previously I had asked for input on the pricing and if anyone knew of any deals. This is a question that stemmed from my decision to actually go ahead and purchase the device and finding out that they were sold out everywhere. My question being if there was a reason for this and the possibility of it being because of recalled units.
thanks so much for your reply even though it is completely useless and displays no intelligence... Its always entertaining to see people who take the time to reply to a question to just make a comment rather than answering the question.... To answer your question though sir, I am in the US... just as it states right next to my user name and in my profile. :laugh: :good:
