.....from HTC ?

The Image shows not what you get so don´t worry.....

Thank you
I was hopping to locate one in US, the only one i could find was http://www.expansys-usa.com/d.aspx?i=172175
interesting that they all are back ordered until the end of June.

I think the Expansys and the "Original" from HTC are the same....and on the HTC Homepage they say "......expect shipment in 15 working days....." .....so its correct that they are back ordered until the end of June.............

Memory Card And Sim Card Cover Broke.

Hi guys!
I am not that kind of guy who keeps opening the battery cover and memory card cover too often, but this time i had to open it to change the new SD card that i had bought. When i tried pulling the memory card cover, it was not coming out. After giving it a little extra pressure it opened up but to my shock it cracked a little in the middle...damn, how can the cover be so delicate ??? Now my memory card and Sim card cover is cracked right in the middle and might split into 2 anytime and it looks ugly too. My mobile is just 3 months old does this fall under warranty ..? *I really hope it does* If not where can i buy this. I am from India. Thanks

option 1 - http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=inspire+door&_sacat=See-All-Categories
option 2 - beg your provider, as long as you still have it they should replace it. they know the battery door is hard to take off and replace those so why not the other cover.

Thanks for the reply mate. I have already written to them. I might get a replacement soon

Hi,
I would suggest contacting HTC. I broke my cover two times, and called them.
They made a support ticket for me. I uploaded 2 pictures of the covers and got a new one for free within 2 days.
This shouldn't be your fault. HTC made the covers far too tight. I hope this helps.
Edit: I see that you've already contacted your provider and/or htc.

Hey. I broke both my sim and battery cover on my dhd. I stupidly threw them away before contacting htc and they won't replace them without pics. Right now I'm holding my battery in with black tape. I would really appreciate someone sending me photos of their broken ones so I can use them to get mine replaced by htc uk. I hope someone can help.
Sent from my Motorola Startac running Atari 2600 software!

I did exactly the same thing the first day that I got the 'phone,when I took it off to put a the sim' in!

Well i have spare battery and sim covers that i can sell if anyone is interested, Though my sim covers do have the orange logo on it that i've been told can be taken off with some soft water sanding.
If anyone wants one just send me a pm

Warantee replacement of back cover

I called HTC after dealing with tech support about poor signal quality and was refereed to repair. I gave them all my info and told them that I have read that many people with poor signal quality have had improved signal with a new back cover and asked if I could get a new one and she told me that 1 of each accessory is covered under warranty. I didn't ask what all the accessories are because I only needed the back cover. I wonder what exactly is covered.

Charger, battery, usb cable, back cover, headphones
Sent using two tin cans and some string.....

This topic has been covered many times. They will replace each once within the first year of purchase.

Sweet. I didn't see it. I don't have any of that stuff other than the battery but I don't need it. I certainly am not going to abuse the system but I think it's important that people know they don't have to make up stories about peeling back covers. Just ask for the part and it's covered. The HTC lady kinda jumped at the opportunity to make me happy.

I-ll go to Vodafone today with same problem. Signal and creacky back cover. I hope won't take 10 working days.

hjkl;' why no delete?

I could use a new battery cover. My phone fell and the edges got dented.
Also, wouldn't mind getting a second battery so I don't have to buy one.

i droped mine on Vodafone store today. the best news are : the phone is under warantee for 24 months when you buy it from Vodafone so its enough time to fix my signal. i mean i-ll send it on 20 times if is necesarry but i dont accept a smartphone what cost 10 times more then Vodafone V858 to be owned by V858

back cover
back cover is on back order because to many people are creating htc system!!!!! I have to wait!!!! I woulder if they would cover sd card to!!!!

hjkl;' why no delete?

i`m on Vodafone Ireland
its 24 months anyway
my problem is : i want signal issue fixed
when you see a 30eros phone having 2-3 bars EDGE signal on low signal area and your 500euros phone have NO SIGNAL .... its frustating
if HTC have a problem i wont agree to use my monney for testing

I mailed the support in Sweden and told them that my backcover have started to become creaky, they said I should send it to the reseller so they can repair it.
I've seen some people getting replacements by just asking, should I stand on myself so I can get a replacement backcover?
Maybe referring to some part of the warranty agreement?

so ..
if you want that for the monney you payed its no problem
my opinion its ... htc was traying hard to get Sensation on the market
was Pyramid first and supose to come with 15 Megapixels camera but they got a problem with that camera and was renamed Sensation and come with the same camera what Desire HD have i think
another think is they want to emploee an RF Specialist (RF=Radio Frequency)
so at any time i-ll get 2-3 cheap phones with me and i-ll enter to an area/elevator/basement shops and i-ll prove HTC Sensation is the first phone who lose signal when another phone have 2 bars signal and you verry confortable can have a phone call. Until HTC Sensation will have an decent signal, mime will be sent to warantee so manny times will be necesary
i have over 5 phones (N95, E51, E52 Vodafone Smart and an LG) so i can wait for a good htc sensation

@Lullebulle you go to your network representative and tell them what is the problem i think they will colect the phone and sent it to HTC after

Hmm...seems they are having issues with getting the back cover shipped. I was supposed to get my replacement by yesterday at the latest, but it's being held up at customs for whatever reason. Just something I thought I'd share.

Which number do I contact to get the back cover? I actually need one but it's not so dire a situation that I can't wait for the back log. Just glad I don't have to send back the entire phone which I haven't had for a week just to get a back cover that fits properly.
Thanks

contact info

Can someone post the contact info please, did you call htc or did you call t-mobile(USA) ?

i dont know the htc USA number you can find it on htc.com support section, but i think you should contact t-mobile first if you got an phone from them
regards,

re: back cover
I just received my back cover today, it took them a week. -- Ijust made a story just to get a spare back cover as at that time I was thinking of using the phone naked but got a case-mate 'barely there' instead, So, I now have a spare cover.

Called HTC Support UK +44 1279 206906 , advised them that I just noticed that my back cover is not catching the locking mechanism. The advisor made a ticket and the next day I received the confirmation from tech support that they're sending me the replacement cover quoting the support ticket. here's the pic..

[Q] Cheap replacement parts? (Battery and SIM covers)

Hi,
My battery cover and the SIM / micro SD cover, get pretty loss..
Probably because of the over use...
Any way.. I was looking for some replacement parts, but all I found was very expensive.. (about 20 box for full set..)
Can you help me find please some cheap parts?
I don't really care that they wont be original and be Chinese..
I'm looking for only battery side cover, and the bottom SIM slide cover..
I don't need the flash cover but if its part of a fine full set deal then bring it on..
Thank you,
Yarden.

Combination pack I believe

Ebay is definitely worth checking - here in the UK, i got a replacement battery cover for just under a fiver.
Depending on the age of your device, you could also try sending a polite email to HTC support. A while back, I sent them message about my SIM/SD cover being loose, and they sent me a replacement at no cost to me. Took about a fortnight.
Official pricing for these parts (I've seen upwards of £15) can be quite extortionate...

Really?? You talked to HTC and they sent you replacement?
How'd you do that?
And yes I am pretty sure my device is still with the warranty..
Can you please explain how'd you do that and what I need for?
and also, thanks every one, but I think I found something for about 4.5 USD..

Thinking back, I remember submitting a polite request via their support webpage, stating that my SD/SIM cover wouldn't stay in place, and asked about obtaining a replacement. I didn't actually demand anything, and they just sent out a spare.

My desire hd back body is bend as it fell down. where can i buy back body and flash lid as they are damaged I came across full back body housing costs 28 us dollars and its chinese I think so. In some online websites they have stated as original and few as OEM, which one should I buy.
Here one local repair centre person said if we buy chinese they might not fit correctly/exactly here and there might buldge or wouldnt fit part in appropriate position, since its too costly can any one help me by suggesting to get correct one! thanks. am from India.

If it says OEM the quality will be good as the original.
I just bought SIM and battery doors OEM in few bucks and the quality is great

I bought replacement battery and sim cover cheap from Amazon

Did anyone find a Genuine Note 9 battery here in the UK? Ive just ordered and receiving one from a UK company, but I'm not convinced its genuine.
I purchased from a company called RepairOutlet
Also does anyone have any tips for not breaking the back cover
Thanks

ive been using https://www.replacebase.co.uk/ for many many years for oem parts and they have always been really good and the customer services always present.
