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.

I see... it's not a case.
I would expect there to be done issues switching the housings though. Will follow this thread...

where can i get a new battery cover??

like in title: my battey cover is about to broke, any idea of where i can get a new one? ^^
Seriously? have you tried some of these little known sites?
ebay
amazon
or as a last resort try using Google
Sorry if these results are a little UK centric, if you live somewhere foreign maybe someone could suggest some local equivalents.

You might wanna let us know what country you're in, so we can be specific when replying.
I'd check ebay first and see if you can get a good deal on there.
Or simply ask HTC nicely. I was a bit concerned about my SIM/SD cover creaking a bit, so I wrote a polite email to HTC, and they sent me a spare.
Give it a go, the worst that can happen is they say no...
I think they also sell those on the official accessory store.

Thank you guys so much for posting these helpful links, I've been looking all over trying to find a decent price for front white digitizer. People on ebay are selling it for 100 bucks and up. I don't think it should cost that much if the black ones are about 40-50.
Why is it so expensive. You can replace the iphone 4/4s digitizer with screen for $24-$30 (-_-)

Update : almost a month later and no housing. I emailed the company and they are now refunding me because there are out of stock. Guess if I didn't email them they would of kept my money.
I got my digitizer for about 50, but that was a long time ago.

I was just about to post this and a few questions. Glad I looked around before opening a new thread. I did send them an email about the bezel/casing, if it is included. If any one could translate and let me know.
Update: very impressed with immediate response. Did an excellent job In Answering my question even with the language barrier. And yes item is digitizer and housing. I believe total after tax and delivery was around 62 to 65 $ (converted from euro)

[Q] Wanting to replace black housing

I have the black skyrocket and I would like to change the housing to white. I would even consider another color. Has anyone found a site or know where I can get the housing pieces? I know that I will have to replace the front screen due to the border being black on mine.
Any help would be great. Thanks!!
You're gonna end up spending more on those pieces than you did for the phone.
the complete front panel with screen is $220. that's more then the phone its self if you got it on contract.

I did find a few site that had them and I have also come to the same conclusion that you guys pointed out. It will cost me more to place everything to make it white. I will just have too stay black or find one on ebay that the insides have crapped out.
Thanks again guys.

Aside from the "why did you get a black one, if you wanted a white one" question
Have you thought about just selling yours on ebay (or similar) and just getting a white phone? Like just about everything else, if you price the parts individually... It always costs more than buying the finished product. I guess White Out wouldn't cut it?

I didnt get white because i was impatient and didnt want to wait another week for a phone to come in. Its stupid now but i deal with it.

In the short time I had my SGS2, I read this tutorial on taking the outside housing off and sanding it down to give it a matte finish. I'm sure something like that can be applied to the Skyrocket, since it's nearly the same design. Take off the housing, paint it white, and replace it. The screen wouldn't be white, but maybe it looks good like that.

How do the metal contacts touch through the case?
Awesome! I've been waiting for this! Need to find a way to be able to wall mount it and I'll be good to go. Might have to drill tiny holes through my case to get it to work without taking the case off, but it shouldn't be too hard. I'll wait to read a review about it, but I definitely want this one.
Great looking out! I love the look and sleekness to it!

as much as i'd love to have this, if I'm spending that much on an accessory for this phone, i'd probably go with the media link.

white battery cover

Anyone know where i can get a white battery cover for a tmous sensation 4g. Seems like the ones i find dont work on it. I would assume they would all work but sellers tell me otherwise.
ANYONE? The ones i find dont have all the connectors..theyre missing the one on the left thats alone....
EBay. Any of them work. I have a black XE Cover on mine.

Are you Tmous? I am and look at thispic a seller sent me...Its missing one connector which I've been told will affect my service
I have the same question... would love to get a white cover for my HTC Sensation 4G on TmoUS
It's been asked many times when the white covers first came out. The missing contact is fine. I think it was an extra wifi antenna, not 100%, I am on TmoUS and have had the white cover for a good while now. No degradation of wifi or cell signal.
I'm gonna take the plunge and buy one...what do i have to lose...24.00. And if it works i get a nice looking phone...i'll report back.
