Does anybody know if there are cases to change my Trinity's colour?
I bought the black one, but I like more the white one
So I was wondering if changing the cover is possible... I've searched a lot, but no success.
Funny I have a white one and really want a black one. If you lived near London and the outer case was easy to remove, we could have swapped.
This is a common psychological problem... both of you thought well before deciding to buy I'm sure.... But once you buy the black, you wish if you have the while... and if you bought the white you wish if you have the black...
HTC have no plan to issue a rom update to solve this problem
However the white trinity have an advantage of not peeling off the paint around the rim....
The black version have the advantage of looking more sexy

Nice analysis but the real story was, I always knew I wanted a black one (I previously had a black M600). But I had a choice of a free upgrade from Orange UK (white only) or buy a black one for around £400. No choice really...
Get a silicone case and all your problems will be solved
How would a white silicon case look on a black trinity?
I've looked everywhere but i could not find any new cases for Trinity...my problem is that not even after 24h i had this pda my dog reached it on the table and it dropped on the floor making two quite big scratches on my case :/ so if any would see cases for trinity plz let me know oh, and I want white one ;p
According to HTC you can switch the cases. But only at the local service-centre. There is a service centre in Belgium, but they ask E-30,- for the switch, and you cant have back the old (black/white) covers.
Maybe if you really like to switch the covers, you can mail HTC europe for the addresse of your service centre.

You have to change the keypd too.
See : http://cnn.cn/shop/htc-c-277.html?osCsid=cb110d09aa47e0bc102163d4afb0b2a1
No cover yet for the P3600.
Ask CLB
He wrote instructions of how to paint peeled-off trins. Perhaps his method is also valid for the plastic cover. Maybe you can paint your Trin red, pink or flowered!
I did not paint.
I removed paint.
HAHAHA! Great delivery.
cover available

great page
i have many same cover full
black
white/silver
white/black
=)
if you want contact me
There's plenty who've been expecting it...
It's now available ! And here's the link.
One tiny flaw though, it doesn't look like it's the original HTC-branded cover. But I'll go for one anyway ! Don't forget the silver keypad, since it's not the same as the one mounted on the black version. And for those who'd consider switching from white to black, black fittings are available too.

excellent, let us know I'd also love to change my white one to a black one
Is there a chance i'll encounter the peeling-off issue known with the black trinities with these covers??
Ooo I've been looking for something like this, delivery is good for overseas too, I think I'll go for a black one, it's a bit expensive though!
I've dropped a message to cnn.cn about the logos on the white version. I'll let you know as soon as I get the answer.
hrm. i'm kindof worried about customs when shipping from US to EU.
i recently paid 65€ custom on a 100$ watch fom japan. ouch!
is there any way to get around that, like marking it as low value or a gift? any EUer ordered from CNN.cn before?

I think it really depends on your country, even if you're in the EU. Some countries allow a gift duty free, but a retail outlet won't send a package that way. The UK is apparently really sticky about import duties I've heard.
Oh yeah, I also concern about why the white one don't have any Dopod or HTC logo on it
Is that real genuine replacement or just some replica from some cheap material?
i got both the white and black covers; the black is definitely HTC stock. the white one does not have any HTC markings and, there is a notable difference in the color of the front and back covers. i think the white is aftermarket and poor quality (in my opinion). if you get the white cover you should probably get the sliver "D-Pad", otherwise it will look funny. unfortunately, i ran over my device (by accident, stupidity, carelessness) and didn't have a chance to change the covers.
I've just replaced my M700 white cover with the black HTC branded. Man this phone looks so goddamn sexy now it's incredible.
I got the black keypad as well. Silver would have been too garish IMHO.
Hi guys,
Just to let you know that cnn.cn answered my mail and stated that both the front and back covers were HTC-branded.
I'll let you know when I receive them.
Cheers
Black side keys ...
Hi guys,
If we switch to the white which as you said earlier has the HTC logos and the silver keyboard what about the side keys which are black (except the camera which is silver). I think it would be really ... not sexy ... white with black keys.
I have already asked cnn if they also provide white side keys and I 'm waiting for their reply. I' l get back to you when they reply.
Regards, Dimitris.
Ah then those of us with the white to start have one major bonus. The keys are silver and it looks really swish black with all silver buttons. I can see white with black buttons would look a tad sucky.
do the black covers still have the peeling problem?
The Covers Suck
I ordered both the Black and White (with matching keypads), and I have to say that the quality is poor, and not consistent.
For the Black one:
Has multiple brands - CHT and Dopod on the front, and HTC on the back .. would have been better with just one brand;
Internal piece is missing the metal plate;
Plastic moulding is poor (my unit was warped, and not useable);
Back Cover is not provided with rubber plug (on the back for the antenna port), nor the cover for the SD Card;
No buttons provided (i.e. side buttons like the camera, Ok below the scroll wheel, etc).
For the White One:
Colour on the front and back cover differs;
Buttons were provided;
No branding at all;
Cover is not provided with rubber plug (on the back for the antenna port), nor the cover for the SD Card;
Overall, not very happy and believe to be a waste of money.

This thread has a link to a .rar file archive (opens with WinZip) containing a really good MS word doc showing how to disassemble your trinity Click Me!
How to disassembe your Trinity.
I also had to open my black Trinity in order to solve the peeling problem. Because I have seen many users requiring for instructions on how to open their phones I decided to write a detailed step by step tutorial. You can find the guide in this thread

Hi all
This is my first post here so I should present myself firts. I'm from A Coruña (a city of Spain) and have desire with CreativeSense rom (2.3.5 and sense 3.5). I like my desire but the housing had a lot of scratches so I decided it was time to change for the white one.
I bought this h t t p :// w w w .ebay.es/itm/300618827683 thinking that it was original from HTC. The housing arrived a few days ago but I'm really dissapointed with it.
My old housing has a kind of rubber coat (you know what I mean if you have one) but this new white housing hasn't it. The new white one has a ceramic-style coat that when you push with the nail it jumps into bits, it has its first scracth yet in a corner (maybe because shipping)
White desire was not sold here in Spain so I don't know if the white housing has the rubber coat too. Maybe someone here has one and can clarify this.
I'm thinking about claiming my money back through paypal/ebay.
Cheers.
Correct me If im wrong but I don't think the desire ever retailed in white, so the new bezel and back you bought will be 3rd party made which is why they have a different feel / scratch easy.
If you arn't happy with your product contact the seller and see if they will accept a return based on the fact it was "damaged" on arrival. You may have to pay for postage back to the seller and you will not get a refund on the original postage but seeing as you paid $30 I would try and return it.
If the seller doesn't comply take it up with paypal!
I do not believe that was a Desire in white, therefore HTC would not do only the white cases
The desire was indeed offered in white here in Singapore.

The desire was retailed in white in some countries. Here is a video unboxing a white desire: h t t p : / / w w w . youtube.com/watch?v=jnsQCrGseBY
My main question is about the white desire housing coat. If it's soft-rubbered I'm going to claim thought paypal because seller send me a non original part (saying it was original from htc). If it's non rubbered It means that my housing could be an original one so I'll only ask the seller to send me another battery cover without scratchs.
Thanks for your replies.
it was also sold here in austria in white. Had one in my hands, and it feels definitively different compared with the original color. So might be original!
The desire retailed here in Sweden in white. It does indeed have a slippery coating. Did not enjoy it compared to my brown one. Yours might actually be a original.
Here (in Belgium) the Desire bravo is sold in either brown or brilliant white. I personally wanted a black cover, but its not available here... The brown just looked nasty, so went for the wite. It does not have the rubber surface u speak of, but the paintwork isnt scratched so easy either. However, after a year now, paint on the corners tend to fade away, showing the initial white plastic. Buying a white desire was a bad idea. But since i really dont like a brown phone, i had no other choise..

I've heard that the gray model can show scuffs / prints / wear more easily than the white model. That would be the only reason that would prevent me from getting it.
Was wondering if anyone can confirm that.

OK... So the Gear S2 is out on the shelves, but what about straps? I'm waiting for my white
S2 to arrive, but would like to buy additional straps: Yellow and Red... Where can I buy these?
Can't yet. No one is selling them. Not even the super expensive Samsung ones
Let us know if you find them anywhere. I have the dark grey and was looking for white band.
Any word on the bands...where can I buy. I was forced to purchase the silver version and want to change the white band to black.

Do you think they will come out with some cheaper alternatives!?
I'd be more then happy to Trade my smaller black strap for someone's larger white strap, if someone happens to fit that bill
I bought my red strap here: http://tilbehoer.telia.dk/cgi/frontend.cgi?func=catalog.show&func_id=34439&table=PRODUCT
I don't know if they sell outside Denmark, though. And btw, it's also the only place in Denmark I've seen them for sale.

Yes I am still very much interested, I reside in Texas standard postage should be only a couple bucks if you want to
Can send immediately if you're up to it
I have also ordered ther silver cause I had a plan for a yellow...
but no yellow anywhere
I have sent email to Samsung about it.
Not fair to show something in the demo and not to sale it
