I know that it's not the best solution, but if you buy a Mugen 2600 mAh battery, it comes with it's own cover (due to the extra thickness)...
Best Regards

yea i have just ordered one from here http://www.mugen-power-batteries.com/toshiba/toshiba-tg01.html it has been shipped today i have heard very good feedback from this particular battrey.I hope that it lives up to its expectations and the hype one user said he got 4 days out of it with heavy use i find this hard to believe but we will see.If anyone has expiriences with this battrey over longterm use please tell us your story and rate the 2600mah battrey thanks.

I have the same problem, I already wrote directly to Toshiba, and wrote off that I can not help it, never want toshiba, what is too mobile to which the cap can not be bought anywhere

I just spoke to the Toshiba UK customer care team and they said they would send me one free of charge. My original is pretty clean but has a tiny hairline crack in one corner. Toshiba UK are absolutely fantastic and very helpful

They will only supply to UK I think and they are branded Orange but I can put up with that.

I had the same problem for months, I found dead TG01 on allegro, talked with seller and bought it for 40 zł.
I think you can talk with someone here to order one (or two) and send it to you, it can be sent in a normal letter so you won't pay much for it.
If you find someone who is willing to help (and would be able to get two covers), please notify me (through PM) I would also be interested in getting one so we can split shipping costs (50:50).

Well my brand new back cover turned up today free of charge and as a bonus a brand new 8GB micro SD card was included free of charge, as I mentioned that my original Toshiba card was very slow to load files onto. Toshiba UK are absolute stars in my opinion

76 US Dollar for piece of Desire HD Antenna Cover???!!!!

MY HTC Desire HD sim cover crack when I use it at first day. It is too soft and so fragile. I go to HTC Care center (Singapore) and ask for service, they quote me 100 SGD(76 USD). That is 12% of whole phone cost. That is ridiculous!!! That is not all of it. They request me to let them have the phone for 3-5 days just to fix it. It is just a user replaceable cover. What a lousy service.

thats ridiculous! wait for china ones on ebay...

On french HTC site, there's some for 22€.
I find this is really expensive, but better than 76$.
I'm also waiting for a cheaper chinese one.

Thanks. That is much cheaper1!! But delivery will be a problem.

Unbelieveable...how difficult is it to just put on the cover? maybe they just wanna play around with a new toy (the Desire HD)?

Lol... I don't know...
I wanted to change this liitle piece of plastic because I have my carrier's (Orange) logo on. I'm french, so delivery is not a problem for me. But I think I will try some acid to remove this ugly logo !
Watch on the american website, maybe they have some too !

Well there are two options:
You can glue the cover and put silicon cover the back of the phone and wait for Chinese ultra cheap parts
Or wait for the beginning of the January when it seems to me that a lot of shops will receive official spare parts. For instance here you can preorder it for 19 pounds:

my brother called HTC service and said his sim cover was loose. They noticed it as a incident and within a week he got a new sim cover with the mail for free. I'm living in the Netherlands.

Ya, look like I have to wait. Shipping fee from UK is too expensive. I live in Singapore. Look like HTC Singapore have the worst service. The reason they give is they not making profit from it. WTH.

Thats is a good reason, but I doubt HTC Singapore will do that.

Below is my support reply from htc :
Me: My HTC Desire HD sim card cover broken. It is so fragile, it made of soft plastic. It is my first day using it. How I suppose to get a new cover?
HTC : Thank you for contacting HTC.
With reference to your query, we would suggest you to back up all your data first and bring your phone with the receipt to our care center in Singapore for servicing. Our engineer will help you to check and fix your phone.
Me : I go to singapore care centre and ask for help. They say comestic issues is not cover by htc. The charges for replace a small plastic cover is 100 sin dollar, which is 12% of a new phone cost. That is ridiculous. And worst case more they need to hold my phone for three to five days just to replace a user replaceable part. I feel so frustrated with this kind of service. I like htc product so much but this had failed me.
HTC : We are really sorry to hear that. Hope you can get your phone fix asap.
Thank you for your continuous support of our products and services. Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us again.
We look forward to be of service to you again.
Me :That is the only replied you can give? That is not helpful at all!!!
It is too expensive for a small plastic cover!! And this had been know issues for many users. And other country users get the free replacement. How come Singapore users cannot get free replacement for that?
http://www.htcforums.com/desire-hd/6672-htc-desire-hd-*-replacement-sim-card-cover-*.html
HTC : Please understand that we are not trying to make profits by raising the price of the parts. All we will earn is the labor charge to pay the engineer. And due to the cause of the damage is not covered by our company's warranty statement (actually any mobile phone company will consider this situation as out of warranty case, I should say), it will be really difficult for us to provide any discount to you without a proper reason. We really hope that we can help to repair your phone and make it to be of service to you again, but still we have to take our budget into consideration.
We are quite sorry for any inconvenience it may cause and thank you for your consideration!
Me : I cannot understand. You mean labor charge for put on the cover??? You gonna be kidding??
HTC UK website is selling it at 32 Singapore Dollar and willing to ship to customer.
It is just a cover that anyone, even child know how to put back!

Using what exchange rate?
Today's is £70 = $110.62

So far nothing? I broke my cover on the first day too =/

30 January on HTC's Website...

check on expansys.com.au -> $27-27 AUD

Probably we should lodge a complaint to HTC HQ..

I got a replacement phone this from my provider as my screen developed a fault.
Before the courier arrived I took the battery and sim cover off the old one as I knew they wouldn't notice. New phone arrived. Now I have a spare sim and battery cover.
If anyone is desperate pm me and we can sort something out.

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

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.

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
PS: https://secure.htc.com/ca/fr/about/careers/senior-rf-design-engineer/146
@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

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

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..

SIM Cover?

I am on T-Mobile USA HTC One S and after a few removals of the SIM cover it is loose now somewhat. I was wondering how I could get a replacement one or where to purchase one.

I actually lost my sim card cover and I cannot find one anywhere else, I tried to call HTC but they said that the phone is too new and they couldn't replace it. If anyone knows of a site that sells OEM parts hook me up

It says on the ebay link a few posts above that this is needed for your phone to work. That is a lie, I have removed mine and still kept all signal / wifi and even had a call without it..
i find that price a bit extortionate for a little piece of plastic.
Edit: A quick google search found this http://www.htcaccessorystore.com/uk/p_htc_item.aspx?i=233112&phone=229850 it works out about £5 cheaper, So surely if you look about some more you will find one with a reasonable price tag

I totally agree....the s3 is gonna be like their other ****ty build devices....something that at least feels like its metallic. Remember the hd2 back...I mean HTC makes better looking and feeling phones. Hardware specs is debatable but I love this phone with the exception of the memeory card and battery deals. But no cases for me either....they take away from how great and unique the phone looks

Pretty much positive that the speaker cover isn't supposed to be removed. You probably did break something in the process. Bust out the glue buddy.
