SIM Card Cover Replacement NOT FIXED - HTC One S

I purchased the Diztronic cover from Amazon, put it on the phone, and when I took it off to insert the sim card, the sim card cover came off right along with it. Ever since, the sim card cover has never fully returned to its original tight seal, it is mushy and comes off very easily (I can lose it if I don't have a cover).
I called HTC and was offered a free replacement sim card cover, this did not fix anything at all. I called back, they instructed me to send the phone in for repair. I don't want a repaired phone, this baby is brand new! I spoke to a supervisor, she told me they don't have new phones. I can't go replace it at T-mobile because I bought it on eBay (new/sealed) and have it activated on Net10 $45/month.

nvm...

My rubber ring fell off

The Phone is 3 months old and my rubber ring just fell off, not the whole wheel though...
Any suggestins how I can fix it back on again, or should I return the handset ?
Thanks
nid
This happened to me and I returned it and they happily put another one on (but took 28 days to do so)!!!
It happened to a friend of mine too, who also sent it back. Then it happened again, so she just super glued it back on.
If it were me, and it was still in warranty, I'd send it back.
When mine came off I just placed it back on and applied presure. After a few days of not using the wheel it should stick. Mine hasn't come off since
Thanks guys
I washed the ring and the wheel witha little soapy water and a wet cloth to get the fluff off and pushed it back on again. so far so good.
The fone is in waranty, so if it comes off again, I'll consider returning it.
Again, Thanks

my xda orbit 2 rubber ring fell off too
hi, it happened to me as well, my wheel rubber ring fell of i stick it back on but after few weeks i noticed it wasn't on it, it must have fell off but i can't do anything about it cos i bought my xda orbit 2 from ebay. will have to manage without it, don't thing u can buy just a rubber ring on its on, or can u?
I've had this problem and am on my 4th handset... O2 will replace the entire handset if you tell them to... never ask what they can do for u... just TELL them and they get it done... but it's better if you're with O2 online rather that the shops as they get a guy to deliver the new one and pick up the old one at the same time... so ur not without a phone!
yup, I'm getting my THIRD handset from O2 today becase of the ring falling off. I did try superglueing one of them back on but the glue reacted with the rubber and it turned in to a big mess! It's a good phone but this is a serious problem, it must be costing HTC a fortune to keep replaceing the handsets.
Why don't you just go to a local "home center" or a similar store, buy some glue that intended to bind rubber with metal, use it, and forget the issue ?
if I was 6 months in to my contract I'd of been more pro active about doing that but the wheel to fall off within a month, it was going back! if it continues to happen I may give that a go though. (assumeing the ring doesn't get lost)
Hi there,
Sorry to drag this up again !
I also have a XDA Orbit 2 as a second handset, bought off Ebay so no warranty with O2 online etc etc.
I need the rubber ring - quite why HTC decided to just stick it on with double sided tape stuff is beyond me!
Is there anywhere I can get a replacement rubber ring from? failing that, anyone know of a decent DIY job ? I tried getting a 'washer' from a local DIY type shop, it fits perfectly, but is about 2mm too deep - I couldn't 'shave' 2mm off either as internally it's metal.
Help anyone?!

Hi all,
Just bumping this..
Anywhere that I can get the rubber ring? or anyone know of a cheapo DIY version?
Cheers!

Mine fell off and I just do without it. the 2 small holes are handy for twiddling the wheel while using the stylus
Some people said that this rubber rings can be found in ebay... but wht don't you give your phone for repair in o2 shop? if it's within 2 years from purchase won't cost you a cent/penny
Hi there,
I didn't buy the phone via O2 or their shops - it was purchased from an independant seller off Ebay.
Will O2 still replace the rubber ring in this case?
Still haven't seen a listing on Ebay for a replacement ring either...
I'm looking to sell the phone so just want it replaced so it's a 'complete' handset.
Cheers, Dennis, West London UK!

Thanks, but I was hoping for something NOT on ebay and NOT in Hong Kong. I'm in the USA, and would prefer not to wait a month...
Contact HTC.
888-716-3594
On a side note, I snapped mine too. Att gave me a new phone.
Yeah-- experience says "don't squeeze the edges as you remove it"-- flimsy piece of @#$% plastic.
Fortunately, mine just has a small crease that isn't really noticeable.
Yeah, I contacted HTC, and they sent me a battery cover.
For those looking to buy, Expansys has them.

Back cover is destroyed. Need replacement.

I remember seeing a thread here a few months back about calling HTC for a replacement cover and what to say. I don't mind paying for it. Just need to get one ASAP.
have you tried calling HTC?. i have extra two covers, id be willing to sell you one.
Ebay has plenty, maybe a seller local to you

Install old screen or buy new

I bought a Pixel off eBay with insurance. About 6 months later the charging port started acting up and the battery would drain very quickly, even quicker when off. Contacted insurance and they gave me a gift card to ebay for the price of the phone, which I used to buy another phone. However, they let me keep the phone. I bought a charging port and battery and replaced them. The phone seems to be good as new. So I haven't glued the screen on yet (waiting on glue). Also, the old screen has a lot of glue all over it. I've also read a few posts where people say they've screwed their phone with the glue. So I'm kinda wondering if I should get a new screen with adhesive already on it. Anybody here "been there done that"? If so is the gluing pretty straightforward? Thanks
