Channging faceplate (housing) - HTC ChaCha

Can someone tell me, is there any tutorial how to change front faceplate (mask)?
I have some damages on it, and I can't look it any more

I open this device and is not a hard one to repair, with the correct tools you can do it easily.

[Q] "squeaky" back cover , is it just me or it's common ?

Hi
My Nexus S (2 months old) has some squicky back cover especially in the lower third of its attachment to the back of the phone when gentle pressure is applied to the area , it's OK in the upper 2/3 and only in the lower 1/3 ... And yes I tested the cover "teeth" and it is mint and in top shape !
No matter how I open it and reattach it , I stil can hear (and feel) the squicky feeling when pressing on it , it is very secure in its postion though ...
Do you have the same issue ? what would you do to remedy this ?
Thanks
Mine squeaks a little too (and pushes in and out a tiny bit), only just above the USB port. Since mine is isolated i might try a tiny piece of foil or bluetack or something, but it's overall no drama for me. If it squeaked anywhere on the sides it would be annoying though.
Mine doesn't, maybe you've taken out your cover too many times?

I purchased an OEM replacement battery door and it has the same issue. The original fits snugly but is all scratched

Gel Case: Solution to multiple problems

I got a generic(ish) gel case for my One S. The camera now is elevated when i put down the phone and the power button which was very difficult to press is now actuated by a bump in the case, making it significantly easier to press.
I'll upload this pics and link the source if y'all are interested.
Interested. Can you measure how much thicker the device becomes with that?
I'm interested too!

Yeah I know. I just reread the forum after I posted that. I feel stupid..
http://www.gultek.eu/htc-spare-parts/housing/one-s-white.html
Although I am sure that this is the devil's material (plastic) it's all I could find.
Also, it's out of stock, which is really bloody annoying.
I think i found it! http://stellatech.com/htc-one-s-back-cover-(white),a,en,814376.html doesnt know anything about it, but it says its original

Here is a full housing cover and the shop is legit and trustworthy and the other parts have pictures and they looks like original! The company is also from germany and it's big enough that they can't sell imperfect items.
Yes, English is not my native languange

I'm buying the one you linked from aliexpress. Ill constantly update this post to inform you how long it took, how much it was ect.
Edit 1: So i just purchased it, the White housing was $53.19. I decided to go with EMS shipping which is 35.79 leading to a total of $88.98, woah thats alot. I will edit this post again in 5-15 days (when i get my housing) with pictures and more!
Edit 2: The seller shipped it, now i wait more..
Why are you getting this? I mean is it just for the white housing?
I purchased (at a jacked up price at a T-mobile store no less) an awesome white housing car with a chrome (plastic, but not painted chrome..in other words, no chipping that shows white underneath) by Skullcandy and I paid $39.99, which i am sure can get for around $10 now.....
So i am just curious....what is the big draw here?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
The big draw is that your phone is literally no longer silver this isn't just a case its an entire new body for the phone. This is also handy for those who have scratches and marks on their phones
Sent from my One S using xda app-developers app
Is it white all the way through or is it coated in some way?
Tell us about the housing when you get it. Im not sure if it will fit on our one s, because maybe the white special edition has some changes in its housing. Im waiting for the seller answer.
Enviado desde mi Nexus 7 usando Tapatalk 2
I see... it's not a case.
I would expect there to be done issues switching the housings though. Will follow this thread...

any news?

Dent middle chrome.

Hi, i accident drop my s4 i9505 and cause a dent to the middle housing bezel. Is there any recommend on spare part shop that I can get a hold for the replacement? I looking for the original/chrome if possible. Thanks alot!
here my picture.
service center should be the only way if you have to fix it, or you can buy a case for your s4 so that it hides the dent
It seems metallic.. Isnt It?? I thought It was plastic.

It's plastic. And you can change it yourself easily. You have to buy something like this

Same thing happened to mine and my wifes and we dropped them from like 2 feet
Looks like that case your using isn't doing it's job. Get a new case!
I don't think the top chrome is plastic since mine also got flattened after a drop

Damn. I'd say you got lucky. Get a case. Get a Otterbox Defender.

I did a drop test on my s4 from about 4ft high face down on a flat bar floor. Did it about 5 times and the only "damage" was something similar. Its definitely plastic.

Don't attempt to fix this phone yourself unless your a pro. This phones design is unibody and as such very difficult to fix yourself. Send it to HTC or another HTC repair centre.

I am a specialist technical, and I've already checked the various components, but not having the general schematics and Troubleshooting, I can not see where they end up the various ways and what some bga...
a the htc center only change the main, the connector or similar, not repair the singolar problem in the ways or component...
for this i serch the service manual, schematics or datascheet.
