Well the title really says it all, I don't want the touch keyboard cover, I don't have a need for it nor want to spend $115 for it.. I had a keyboard for my TF300 and never used it..
Anyways, does anyone make a touch cover that click in, just minus the keyboard... I guess if I could get a touch keyboard cover real cheap that would work...but I doubt that... anyways...
Rant done... haha
Just a cover then somewhat like the apple smart covers?
I dont think anyone makes one. Although you may not have used the keyboard on your tf300 often you might want to consider the fact that this is a windows device and the keyboard is more important in the windows ecosystem, if you can live without it, well, your choice.

Yea, like one of the apple smart covers... I see what your saying, its hard to justify the $$ maybe if I could get one for like 30 Bucks....
I was almost want to give you my spoilt touch cover, but I was told that its covered with 1 year international warranty. And now they are shipping me a replacement touch cover...

i just noticed the corner near the home button has a tiny bend that starts seperated from the layer beneath it....it looks like an old screen protector got a little bend in the corner but that is the surface of the phone!!! is there anyway to replace it or i cant do anything just waiting for it to come off?
it is ridiculous how an expensive phone like touch pro uses such low quality plastic that can actually get bend and i feel really helpless now =(
Yeah, mine is doing that too. Except it's on the "back" button side. It doesn't really affect anything. I'm just worried that if something gets caught on it, it might peel back further.
Nothing can make this phone suck though! It rules!!!
Yeah, unfortunately the TP/Diamond are suffering from some manufacturing defects, probably because it's a "new" design style for HTC. My TP has a touchscreen defect that conveniently showed up after the two-week return/exchange period.
Protective case, learn to love it.
Do you guys think they would be willing to replace a new case if i pay them?
My device shows the same behavior since this morning. Its about 1mm, so nothing to worry about and it seems to stick pretty well on the rest, thinking about rasping the edge off a bit to make it smoother
Is this getting worse on yours? Last post is 3 weeks ago .......
Any chance someone would post a picture of this? I'm thinking about the Fuze, but I can't stomach another HTC phone full of hardware flaws.

If it's really a defect, they should replace it without you paying them.
Considering that ATT offers a 1 year manufacture warranty. I can't see why you wouldn't be able to return the phone and get a replacement. It is obviously a problem with the design of the phone.
It wouldn't hurt to try and go to an ATT store and see if you can get a new FUZE!!!
Well, as we all know, HTC always claims that they don't know anything about the problems we address to them.
When I first complained to their support that I am having GPS lag, they told me I was the only one in the whole world suffering that problem, so it must be related to the software I installed.
Luckily they can not deny hardware problem so easily, as long as it is clear that there wher enot caused by misuse.
I don't have this particular problam, yet, but as I am already on my thrid TP (the first two had a defect hardware keyboard and black paint falling off), I would like to get some photo evidence of the users here, who unfortunately have the button part coming off.
That way we can show to HTC that more users have that problem, before we send back our devices, and maybe negotiate a direct replace, instead of rapair procedure, which takes up to 2 weeks.

My AT&T Fuze started doing the same thing after just two months. However, the bent plastic corner of the clear laminate was RAZOR sharp. My wife went to answer the phone and it resulted in a very serious slash to her cheek. This defect resulted in a very serious cut to her face!!
What is even more disappointing is that AT&T said that warranty does not cover this issue and said that the only way I was getting a replacement was if I paid the $125 deductible from the [email protected]*t insurance they scammed me on. I would have thought for $5/mo. I was completely covered.
The AT&T customer care rep was rude and not willing to help. A request to speak to his manager didn't get me far either. Even after I threatened to switch all 30 phones at my company back to Verizon Wireless they didn't seem to care.
At last I called HTC America directly this morning, explained my issue and they turned me over to a product specialist who told me that they know of no such issue. Despite my insistence they refused to replace the phone. Therefore, I WILL cancel all 30 lines my company has with AT&T and go back to Verizon...I hear the Samsung Omnia is not a bad smartphone!!
First post i believe,
but.. i love my touch pro 2, but i love the design of verizon's sleep black look, could i swap the housing considering their both cdma?.. i've been told yes, but i dont know where to look, i did a search but it came up with housing for the old touch.. not for this, any help?? =)
I would say maybe. They seem very similar, but I think there would have to be a lot of delicate work involved transplanting the screen and keyboard.
Not worth the risk IMHO.

Hi everybody,
today ain't a good day for me.
My phone just smashed accidentally onto the road, after it had slipped from my hands. I was on the second floor (about 6 meter).
SBAM.
The impact was terrible, as you can see in the photos.
The "SAMSUNG" sign was completely turned into smithereens, and the fragments of glass were arrived up to the mainboard.
Despite that, I am trying to repair it.
I have just disassembled the entire device and I am planning to buy the front panel (+ lcd).
The question is: how can I know if the device still works ? Any idea?
What would you suggest?
I suggest you save money for a new phone..
You post make me sad
I don't believe, that you will find somebody that would be brave to check if this stuff still work. As you have on above post, the cheaper will be to buy new one... :fingers-crossed:
thank you all.
ARGH...I know, it's a pity, this wasn't supposed to happen
I'll save money for a new phone, yeah. I believe I don't have other choises (buying a new lcd is too expensive).
Thank you again, fellows!
well damn......that makes me sad and I have to say i dropped mine a lot of times,i have even trown it when i was angry but i can say that a few side scratches and back case scratched is all that's on it...lucky I used my momax case i guess.still i don't recommend it if you guys want to keep your back phone case free of scratches
i think is cheaper to buy a new smartphone than to repair and/or replace the screen
so sad:crying:
Bury him

This is the end for phone, better to save some money and buy something like galaxy nexus.

the screen will cost quite abit if im not mistaken. not worth the trouble as well. just get a new phone
Also, are you sure that the screen is the only thing that's broken? A drop from that height is more than enough to break the motherboard.

90 dollar for a replacement screen. But I guess that's just the front glass, you also broke the back.
Ye, a galaxy nexus seems fine, or maybe a motorola defy+ if you want something cheaper, it's just 200 now, almost the same specs as the galaxy s and it's meant for heavy use as you still see the screws...Seeing the damage you can cause, it's probably fit for you.
Hi!
I was heartbroken when my MT4GS broke recently. I need a replacement screen assembly for it. I've been looking on ebay, but I only see phones with broken screens or individual service parts. I have a working motherboard but, I need the entire screen assembly replaced.
If anyone has a bricked (or fully working) MT4GS with an otherwise nice looking (and working) screen that's just lying around collecting dust that they would be willing to sell cheap, I would be very happy. I should mention I live in Europe. I'll cover any fees, obviously.
Alternatively, does anyone know of a worthy successor (GSM Android QWERTY slider)?
Thanks.
You should try ebay. there are all sorts of spare parts for this phone and you can get just the part you need without having to buy an entire phone. At least that way you will spend less and not end up with parts you do not need.
very true, this happens to be one of the more pain in the ass phones to fix but it still isnt all to bad. a new digitizer (and very likely will need a new lcd as near impossible to separate) will be in the range of 50$ if you need more than this other parts arent too expensive and not terrible to replace.
as a successor... there really isnt one, closet upgrade with a qwerty is the galaxy relay, others may disagree but between the vision and the doubleshot i am hard pressed to find a true high quality qwerty phone

I've never had any trouble getting my LCD out. Though my phone had been opened before, so the sticky wasn't as well stuck to the backside of the LCD. You can use a bit of hairdryer heat to loosen the adhesive.
Now digitizers... Those I seem to burn through.
Well, I suspected that the cable connecting the screen to the motherboard had become damaged, due to the touch function and screen dying when sliding the phone open. I did order a spare part on ebay but in trying to seperate it from the LCD, I ended up making it worse. I did use a hairdryer to warm up the adhesive, alas, it seems I wasn't careful enough. The end result is that I now have a "bottom" part (keyboard, motherboard, etc.) which is (presumably) still undamaged, but I need an entirely new screen assembly.
Hi, i am in desperate need of a lcd display for a 7 pro but they are seriously hard to get hold of!
I have looked on ebay and theres only ones from HK or China and even then the sellers feedback on screens is poor!
I have phoned countless repair shops in the uk and only a couple claim to be able to get hold of the screen but then demand that they fix the phone themselves and a stupid fee and will not supply the screen to me.
one thing i have noticed it that the touch pro 2 and 7 pro screens look identical apart from the colour of the ribbon that connects them to the main cable that goes through the slide body.
there is no visual difference between the screens or connector cables other thab colour and they have the same specs also-
480 x 800 pixels, 3.6 inches and a 259 ppi pixel density
Does anyone know if they are actually interchangeable or not? i cant find a screen anywhere and my wife is not pleased with me right now as ive only just got the phone and a broke the lcd trying to remove the digitizer even though i was ultra carefull and used lots of heat, please can someone help!!!!
Thanks, Steve.
Hello! To most simply answer your question, no. The screens are very different despite looking similar. The old TP2 screen is not multitouch and WP7 requires this. Also, the old screen utilizes a stylus while the newer 7 pro screen doesn't even recognize that type of touch.
It is your phone after all, so if you would like to try this that's your choice. However its too much effort to affix the ribbon to the pcb to even make it worth it. My old TP2 has a cracked digitizer which I have a replacement for, but the ribbon is machine pressed onto the pcb and reattaching this connection would be very difficult without the type of heat/pressure used in the manufacturing of the phone.
If you decide to try it let us know the results!
I'm sorry, I just seen you said the lcd itself, I thought you were meaning the digitizer screens.
That being said, maybe the swap will work, as long as they hook up the same?

i found a seller with genuine touch pro 2 screens who is willing to take it back if it does not work for me, i will let everyone know if it works!
I can confirm, the touch pro 2 screen does NOT work in the 7 pro, it is almost identical but the conector is at most 1mm wider than the 7 pro but its enough to stop if fitting into the socket
Back to the drawing board for me i guess.

not sure if you still need an LCD, or maybe you got a new phone by now. I found this if your still interested in getting it up and going again.

not been on for a few days, thankyou for the link its still there and in europe!
I bought another 7 pro handset as i could not wait any longer, i had been forced back to my old Touch pro (raphael) and although not a bad phone and running a custom 6.5.3 rom , it just cant cope on the web anymore as all the standards have changed and nobody is supporting windows mobile anymore.
Its a shame cos windows mobile is by far a better operating system than windows phone, updated and running on better hardware it would have rocked.
even though i bought a new handset ive always intended on fixing the other one when i get the chance and have put a bid on that screen to remove the buy it now.
Fingers crossed that it dont go up in price, my wife will kill me if spend much more on these phones lol
once its fixed its going to go in its box and live in a safe place till ive worn out this new one, dont think i wll sell it, thanks for your help, you get a thanks meter point for this :good:
Steve.
You are welcome I was a little worried you might not get to the link fast enough but thankfully you did! I seen that and figured its a steal considering the lcd is nearly that price alone, plus all the work needed to change it. Good luck I hope you win it
Thanks geeze

as long as you get the right screen, theres no reason why you cant do it yourself, just go slow, very slow, read tutorials and be very carefull of all cables and boards inside. if it its the glass digitizer that is broken and not the whole display, be very very carefull when removing it from the lcd as theres a big chance of breaking the lcd as its removed, heat to relax the glue is your friend! if the glass is shatterd, removing the glass bit by bit instead of trying to remove it all at once may proove easyer and less risky on the lcd.
Good luck, steve.
