hello
could you please give me a ebay adress to find this Desire part ? (on the picture).
i don't find anywhere this metal part, and i make a little stripe on this part...
thank's
Don't think you are going to dinf just a front cover for it mate, why not buy a gel cover which will cover it and also protect your phone.
But if that doesnt work I think your best bet is to buy a faulty one and see if you can sap the fronts.

Haven't seen any Desire parts show up on eBay yet, but eventually they will.
There are some Desire dummy phones on eBay. Typically they are made of the same materials of the real phones... but I don't know if they use the real phone's replacement part though (probably not).
thank you all. I think i'll send my phone to HTC customers services...
Hi, I have the same problem, have you solved? What have you done?
Thanks in advance.
I just saw the front housing on Ebay

Hello, Guys!
I Have Ever Bought OEM HTC Desire Digitizer From Global Direct Parts. I Found This Site By Google When I Needed HTC Desire Digitizer Replacement For My Damaged Digitizer. Now My HTC Desire Can Work Perfectly. You Can Take A Chance There. Maybe They Also Sold HTC Desire Front Housing
Not sure why but my box came with a spare small sized white sticker with 'htc void' written on it repeatedly. I've got no idea what this is for...

I got mine from Phones 4 U here in the Uk, I'm sure mine came with this sticker as well. If I remember the actual box was secured with a plain white sticker - and the inner box was a right pain to get out.
I assumed that the sticker came in the box so that a retailer could charge the handset or check the contents and then reseal the box.
I bought a handset a while back from Vodafone and it came with a sticker saying something like "walk out talking" because they'd charged the handset before selling it?
I could be wrong though.

You are correct. Mine was the same way. Since the DHD is sold unlocked/unbranded there is no need for the seller to open it, so we get that sticker.
mine is tmobile branded and didnt include such sticker.
so your theory seems to be right

We unbranded DHD owners can sell our phones as a new one

That would be true if you still had all the cables, charger in their original wrapping, plus the plastic cover foil around the phone.
Interesting, I've not seen this before. Thanks for the explanation guys.

As it happens, I do still have all the plastic stuff

I don't believe this is gonna work
I was wondering why I had one of these! Cheers for the explanation, haha
Just had mine 3 days ago. Bought it from Phones4U UK on aTmobile contract. Its unlocked and with no branding . Also came with the white stickers.
Just thought i'd add my pennies worth.
Just gotten my phone today and its simlocked to 3 and has the stickers inside also. . . .

I bought a black house casing for g7 (it looks just like desire original) htc text htc sense text. I think it even is original. I bought it at htcrepairparts. com
I scratched the soft rubbery part on the bottom of the phone.. is there any ways i can replace this part of the casing or the entire body casing altogether?

I'm afraid not, because the entire front housing is in one piece and also it's a tastk and a half to change...
Has any1 tried it? How did you replaced the case? Was it difficult?
Would really need some feedback, as I wanted to try it myself too.
Btw, I watched a youtube video called "HTC Desire Disassembly Video", and it looks scary to put my phone in 1000 pieces...
hello rodey,
look on google for a tutorial, i have changed myself the original case of my desire (brown/black) with a tuto (but it's in french), it's seem difficult but if you follow step by step the tuto, no problem... just be patient!
now i'm looking for a white case.
Only problem I've found with disassembly is that my Desire lets in a crazy amount of dust under the screen now, you might want to be wary of that. If anyone has any suggestions to get rid of it they'd be very much appreciated...
Yes, i have the same problem too, but it's my fault : i have lost half of the double face adhesive provided with the case, so it's missing a lot around the screen ...
Hi
I have damaged the metallic black bezel around the screen at a few places (especially the part above the micro usb port). I guess it is called Faceplate.
What I wanted to know is if I can replace this part somehow. If I look at the region under the screen after opening the slider, it appears as if it can come off.
If it is possible to replace it, does anyone know where can I buy one of these?? I have googled but could not find anything.
I have found only a full cover. Try searching milestone 2 housing on eBay.

Thanks dude. Now I have to find someone who can deliver it to India. BTW are you sure Droid 2 is physically exactly same as Milestone 2. They do appear same. Just wanted to know if someone has used this cover etc. Plus anything on the quality??

I've ordered one from the link above and I should receive it in the next 7-14 days so I'll let you know how I go but I'm 100% confident that the physical housing between the MS2 and D2 are identical.
I have received the housing (from the eBay link above) and fitted it last night. The case is a Verizon stamped unit and is 100% perfect, next time I think I'll just live with the worn look. Very fiddly job but does give you an appreciation of the engineering ... They use a lot of adhesive, pita.
Well I have managed to knick the display input cable and now have a one centimetre row smack in the middle of the screen that won't respond to touch. My fault, I thought I'd taken care to ensure no damage to some of these fragile cables but alas no
So, just ordered a SGII Stick that where the sun doesn't shine Motorola! Yeah, I know you couldn't care less but I feel better
Well thanks for the info. I won't have the luxury of buying a new one if I ruin my MS2 so I guess I'll stick with a little wear and tear. BTW nice buy!!
Or just take it to your nearest phone repair shop and they'll sort it out. =D

How does the housing attach to the digitizer/glass? Because the tutorial I found on iFixit didn't detach the digitizer from the housing.
My housing cracked badly, I "fixed" a corner with superglue, but I think it permeated through the digitizer, so there's a strip in the left side (the one with the MENU button) which is insensitive. Another drop and the whole top part fell off and I don't intend to glue this one. Probably I'll buy a new front panel and a new digitizer, but I need to know if I'll be able to attach them at home or if I'll need some adhesive (yuck).
Thanks in advance! :fingers-crossed:
Hello all,
The glass cover on my sidekick got broken accidentally. The LCD works fine.
I'm planning to get a replacement front panel glass.
I found the following link on ebay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tmobile-Sam...ultDomain_0&hash=item2c605f3c7e#ht_2045wt_905
Is this an original OEM part as described? After it's replaced will it work as good as the original?
Any other options other than the above ebay link?
Please help!

sammydude
God only knows. It'll probably work though.
Sorry this is late, but the ribbin cable and glass seem to be just like the original. Let us know how it went.

How did you break it? I'm asking only because I know this is a pretty durable phone, I've already dropped it screen first on gravel, without a scratch to show of it.
This looks legit to me. Digitizer is the key word. I've replaced many of these on different phones. As long as it's a ditizer for the correct phone model number. Are you doing this yourself? There should be some good tutorials on disassembly on youtube.

@AFAinHD It was bizarre! My watch was on a chair. My wife threw my watch onto the bed saying "here it is. keep it ". The metal part of the watch fell on the mobile (the bevel part of the glass). You could imagine our shock after that!!

Not planning to do this myself. There's a good servicing person (freelancer) for all kinds of mobiles. Planning to give it to him.
Thank you all for your replies! Planning to go for it. Will let you all know how it went! Just hope I'm able to get it back to its original condition. Hmmm...

I don't think she could have hit it more perfectly.
