i mean is there that much of a difference in the stock ones from lg compared to the $27 one from billy bobs house of phones based out of the hills of tennessee or the $55 ones from general tso's shop of accessories based out of china?

Depends.
The stock LG one is definitely the same as in the phone and may come with extras such as replacement sticky tape, etc., which, if it does, you should ask those other sources if they also provide whatever comes with the LG digitizer. Also, do a bit of research about consumer feedback about the various sellers especially for the peeps who have ordered parts for the G2X and Optimus 2X from them and installed the part(s) and also note how dependable the seller is regarding shipping, returns, etc.
I think this is the part number: mccz0048101
(From the service manual)
Here's the service manual:

Good luck!
thanks core. im mainly looking at the ones on ebay. don't really wanna drop $50 on one nor get one from china.
I forgot to add that the digitizers come branded at the top with either T-Mobile or LG.

I'm thinking about possibly gambling that the Elite Team gets 3G working for U.S. frequencies on the existing Touch Pro's.
A quick Google Shopping search yields a lot of prices way to low to be legit. What are they going for legit, and any good recommendations for U.S. based sellers?
the cheapest i've seen it from a reputable seller is from plemix. they have it for $787. here is the direct link:

I bought 2 units from an ebay seller. Perfect transactions, with next day air optional. He's not the cheapest, but answers email and is a pleasure to deal with. He has been locked in as the only seller I will deal with in the US. He even carries (and has in stock) the Advantage and Shift.
Seller's store is located here (smart-mobile-gadgets' store)
At this moment...he has 94 available here in the US, and at a list price of $200 less than my unit, and $150 less than my wife's. Guess that's what I get for my lack of patience!
Be weary of sellers on Amazon with bad descriptions.
I bought the following two products from PC Micro Store (fulfilled by Amazon):
ASIN: B002C12760 and B002B9KRYM
Both description are "for T-Mobile G2 with Google Phone", and since the products were added to Amazon on Sept 30, I figured I'd give them a shot.
Of course, these are products for the Hero, not the G2 (which they fail to mention anywhere in the description.)
There is another reseller for OEM T-mobile hard cases on there, but they do not qualify for Prime shipping. I'm only out $10 (which I'll RMA anyway) - just be careful if buying from Amazon.
thanks for the heads up
Bummer man. Thx for the heads up though =)
The cut outs in the back of that look similar to the back of the original MyTouch, it is probably the typical naming and bad description of micro 3rd party resellers.
I'd hate to play devil's advocate, but wasnt the the hero branded as the "g2" on a few european carriers? I seem to remember seeing box art for that years ago.

Exactly - for example Era G2 in Poland
Do NOT buy the iPhone case from Monoprice.com and try to fit your G2 inside of it. I almost broke my phone when I forced it into this case. The little tab at the top pushed itself inbetween the screen and keyboard and was separating it while in the closed position
Fortunately I was able to get it off without damaging my phone, however it was really hard to get off and I was ****ting myself when trying to get it off.
TLDR: DON'T TRY TO FIT YOUR G2 IN A FORM-FITTING IPHONE CASE! (even though they're similar in size)

ROFL, Pre-owned for only 219.99! Hurry while they last!
That's about what used i897s go for on ebay/craigslist
- May be missing parts or accessories
What good is part of a phone?
-may have dents or scratches (previous owner may have bricked it then flipped out)
@OP:
Also looks like your email address is in the URL. Makes me think this is a referral type program. Aka, you're making money off of each sale....
Used captivates are going for $150-$200 on craigslist here in central cali
It's probably for the Canadian demography. They still sell for $300-350 here, but the build is different i896. 11.02 is the batch number I think.
It's not a referral, but it's still better to buy it from a website then from some shady people from craigslist.
I'm in NNJ. Here, Captivates and Vibrants run from $50-$150. Below $100 will probably have a slightly cracked screen. Around $150 will be like new, and probably have a case and screen protector.
$180 or more is just too much for these phones.
And I would rather buy from a person on CL rather than a random website, but that's just me.
Don't try and pawn crappy overpriced used phones for personal profit.

Hi! I would like to ask if is there anyone that sell a full body case replacement for mt4gs? I got mine from a friend so obviously it's second hand and it's already full of scratches/nicks in the metal plate side so I thought about replacing it and failed to find anyone selling it.
I am not talking about those colored cover thingies on ebay. I am talking about the real case of mt4gs. I am loving this phone physically and I'm pretty sure I won't be shifting phones anytime soon since I am a qwerty enthusiast and the upcoming samsung relay 4g just got rejected by my taste.
I've looked into this as well, and there are a couple links on google if you type in "mytouch 4g slide full housing" or something along the lines of that. I'm on my phone, so no links heh.
I lied. Check www.globaldirectparts.com/HTC-Mytouch-4G-Slide-Housing-p/htc745670.htm.
Hmm I'm outside US and seems like they require Federal Tax ID what's that? @[email protected]
Lol that's weird, since it is called global direct parts. I'd check Ebay out Amazon if you haven't already.
Ok already email them and I got a reply saying...

Checked ebay they aren't selling any lol! amazon I dunno...
Ah I guess that's why they needed a tax id: to prove you are going to resell it.
Well, I tried lol. I've been looking to buy one as well, but just to keep as a spare just in case. Maybe you can find a repair shop in your area that would sell you the housing. Idk, good luck though haha.
On a side note, my friend was able to buy housing for a SGS2 a month ago from a repair shop down here. They said they don't normally do that, but (and I seriously think this) because she's hot, they "made an exception". They didn't wanna sell it to me so she went in the next day and asked the same question. I love the world we live in haha.

I wish I could lol! But I don't live in US. And mt4gs isn't even sold in our country so my only choice is buying online.
alright, this looks like somewhere you would be able to buy, but the price is kinda steep. it runs about 80 bucks, and for that price i'm willing to just buy another case to hide the battlescars on my phone lol.

Thanks for this one! Will purchase one the next day
Believe me you don't know what my doubleshot looks like. A case isn't enough to cover it's ugly look.
i just dropped my HOXL accidently and my battery housing the entire body actually has cracked. even the silver thing surrounding the camera just dropped managed to paste it by an adhesive.
i thought the build quality would be strong enough to resist a 2 feet drop!
the screen is intact the cell works well.
i wanted to ask the average cost of a replacement,also will the one meant for international version fit in?
besides does anyone know any company that ships it to INDIA..
also if anyone has a damaged HOXl lying around which has its body in a good condition and can spare it please let me know!
Have you looked online for prices?
Sent from my Evita.
MOD EDIT: moved
online i did check its for around 16$ but the shipping is 40$ approx which doesn't seem reasonable enough!
That sounds reasonable to me, the shipping is a bit expensive but that's not unheard of when shipping internationally. I'm not really sure what you want someone here to say, all the pricing information is online to be found.

agreed its very reasonable the amount, but the shipping makes it somewhat expensive..
the replacement price + fitting charges is kinda similar to the exchange price i get for this phone (again in India)
besides idk the quality they are offering.
all i want is does anyone know any provider in India?
since One X(endeavor) and X+ are of different dimensions and Evita is rare here.
also many people who have water damaged cells etc usually sell the parts if so i can it get it down to some decent price,maybe that can help.
or any other alternative to my problem!
You could check Swappa, that is XDA's sister site for selling and swapping devices.
Sent from my Evita.
checked swappa.. all the ones available there are in working condition!
Does there happen to be a Htc service center near you? May be possible to order one from them or they can point you to someplace a little more local to you. I understand the crazy shipping I have a friend who is in India and I mailed him some old g1 parts I had and package was less than a pound and cost me almost 50.00 US to mail it.

I really appreciate you get my point 50$ is about 3k Rupees and its kinda a huge amount for shipping.
Thanks for your advice man..
Here if you have an Evita service center staff wont even accept the phone besides its a known fact that the ONE x and ONE x+ don't fit Evita.
the phone functions well the cracks are at two places one near the front camera and the other one just above the rear camera in the middle may be I am being very fussy about it!
