There's plenty who've been expecting it...
It's now available ! And here's the link.
One tiny flaw though, it doesn't look like it's the original HTC-branded cover. But I'll go for one anyway ! Don't forget the silver keypad, since it's not the same as the one mounted on the black version. And for those who'd consider switching from white to black, black fittings are available too.

But the black one shows the HTC logo, it's a question of ask them if the with one have it.
cheers
anyone know how to change the housing? anyone know where to find maybe a service manual?
thanks.
i'll figure out how to remove the old cover once the replacement covers arrive... i ordered 2, just in case i wanted to switch to the white one.

excellent, let us know I'd also love to change my white one to a black one
Is there a chance i'll encounter the peeling-off issue known with the black trinities with these covers??
Ooo I've been looking for something like this, delivery is good for overseas too, I think I'll go for a black one, it's a bit expensive though!
I've dropped a message to cnn.cn about the logos on the white version. I'll let you know as soon as I get the answer.
hrm. i'm kindof worried about customs when shipping from US to EU.
i recently paid 65€ custom on a 100$ watch fom japan. ouch!
is there any way to get around that, like marking it as low value or a gift? any EUer ordered from CNN.cn before?

I think it really depends on your country, even if you're in the EU. Some countries allow a gift duty free, but a retail outlet won't send a package that way. The UK is apparently really sticky about import duties I've heard.
Oh yeah, I also concern about why the white one don't have any Dopod or HTC logo on it
Is that real genuine replacement or just some replica from some cheap material?
i got both the white and black covers; the black is definitely HTC stock. the white one does not have any HTC markings and, there is a notable difference in the color of the front and back covers. i think the white is aftermarket and poor quality (in my opinion). if you get the white cover you should probably get the sliver "D-Pad", otherwise it will look funny. unfortunately, i ran over my device (by accident, stupidity, carelessness) and didn't have a chance to change the covers.
I've just replaced my M700 white cover with the black HTC branded. Man this phone looks so goddamn sexy now it's incredible.
I got the black keypad as well. Silver would have been too garish IMHO.
Hi guys,
Just to let you know that cnn.cn answered my mail and stated that both the front and back covers were HTC-branded.
I'll let you know when I receive them.
Cheers
Black side keys ...
Hi guys,
If we switch to the white which as you said earlier has the HTC logos and the silver keyboard what about the side keys which are black (except the camera which is silver). I think it would be really ... not sexy ... white with black keys.
I have already asked cnn if they also provide white side keys and I 'm waiting for their reply. I' l get back to you when they reply.
Regards, Dimitris.
Ah then those of us with the white to start have one major bonus. The keys are silver and it looks really swish black with all silver buttons. I can see white with black buttons would look a tad sucky.
do the black covers still have the peeling problem?
The Covers Suck
I ordered both the Black and White (with matching keypads), and I have to say that the quality is poor, and not consistent.
For the Black one:
Has multiple brands - CHT and Dopod on the front, and HTC on the back .. would have been better with just one brand;
Internal piece is missing the metal plate;
Plastic moulding is poor (my unit was warped, and not useable);
Back Cover is not provided with rubber plug (on the back for the antenna port), nor the cover for the SD Card;
No buttons provided (i.e. side buttons like the camera, Ok below the scroll wheel, etc).
For the White One:
Colour on the front and back cover differs;
Buttons were provided;
No branding at all;
Cover is not provided with rubber plug (on the back for the antenna port), nor the cover for the SD Card;
Overall, not very happy and believe to be a waste of money.

This thread has a link to a .rar file archive (opens with WinZip) containing a really good MS word doc showing how to disassemble your trinity Click Me!
How to disassembe your Trinity.
I also had to open my black Trinity in order to solve the peeling problem. Because I have seen many users requiring for instructions on how to open their phones I decided to write a detailed step by step tutorial. You can find the guide in this thread

So, what are the best options for Desktop Docks for the Desire?
I've taken a look at a few but I can't seem to find any that would fit the desire once a casemate case was applied or any similar case which adds a few mm.
Are there any Docks out there that accommodate for this or are there any generic phone docks that would accommodate the desire in a case?
Nothing that i'm aware off.
there all catered for a stock handset (No cover/case attached)
Thanks for replying ICO (appreciate it).
Yer I was of the same mindset, I've ordered one off ebay (cant link as account is new sadly) as it appears to have a fair amount of gap between the device and the base looking at the images (probably just a dream) so will update when I get it but thats my thoughts as well.
Worth a try at any rate, Worse to worse ill just remove case and dock if its easy enough...
So I got my case and I'm happy to say that it fits the desire perfectly with the casemate case attached! (I'm sure someone will be looking for this information - probably).
Case I purchased was ebay item number: 110538892428
Dock I purchased was ebay item number: 110539991508
(Sorry can't post urls as new account here)
Hope this helps someone else out there, I'm not sure as to whether it would fit a bigger case three is a tiny bit of room once I have the casemate case applied but you might be pushing it at the bottom.
I've orderd the dock also, I'll let you know if it fits with my case. Got a Gel case btw
edit: I'll receive it within 2 weeks can't wait
I've received the dock.
Without a skin it fits perfectly and the build quality is quite good.
But because my desire has a skin i had to modify it a bit. If trimed away some plastic so it would fit and connect to the connector. Because of the skin the connecter couldn't go deep enough inside the slot to connect it.
I'll post some pic's if any 1 is intresseted

Added URLs for you nice people
I've just (today!) taken delivery of this - http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=199195 and it is an excellent desk top cradle at a good price. The rear port is mini-USB, so you can charge and sync, or just use the HTC charger from the mains with a mini-USB lead if you just want to top up the battery. The cradle is nice and firm, and the transparent backplate holds the device securely so that using the phone doesn't strain the micro-USB connection. Good product!
But does it fit with the case-mate?
Also Flitjes do you have those photos with case on?

I bought a dock off ebay (looks like the Proporta Dock) but I found the blue LED far too bright at night, it lit up the room so I decided to modify the dock and move the LED to just behind the plastic holder - this allows it to be nice and blue when the phone is out but when the phone is docked the edges of the plastic glow nicely at night with no bright ambient light. I have attached two pictures of the original and two of the modified. (not one of the phone in the dock as im using it to take the photos!)

Same experience here! It actually makes the camera sensor more flush and does not add too much weight! I had 5 of the wireless charges and it works perfectly now.
Amazon has all the colors.
I am actually not so happy with it.
When holding it tends to sqeak a little and it makes it awkward to hold f.i. when lying in bed (sideways).
It also still has the slippery feel to it so for me it provide3s no bonus except the Wireless charging..
I have not had my hands on CC-3066, so I have some questions on how it connects to the phone ...
It looks like is have 2 pegs on the inside, and no other connections to the phone ... and these pegs seem to only push against the plastic -- is this right? so how does the Qi coil in the CC-3066 actually get the power to the phone? Does the documentation that comes with I provide any insight?

The pegs press against the 2 small holes in the lumia 1020 at the back, not the plastic.
This is more of a hardware question but I recently cracked the glass that covers the rear facing camera so I'm replacing the chassis inside. And I figured since I was popping it open anyway, does anyone know if there is anyway to get a Red colored replacement cover from the red Nexus 5 so I can sorta mod my white Nexus but with a red battery door? Do they even have that available?
Not seen anything yet but that's not to say they won't be available. There's a seller on eBay with the white/black covers so I'd assume they'll end up with the red ones

One thing to note is that you get the official battery cover so that it has the NFC and/or wireless charging receiver in it. Some sellers might have replicas but it might not have the chips built in.
sent from my neXus 5
This is the seller on eBay that does the OEM white/black ones:

Might be worth keeping an eye on them
Found this.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rear-Cove...K_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item2337ba6411 Good luck!
Please can someone provide me with an eBay link for the white one .. I live in India and I would like to know if there are any near me..
I searched a lot on eBay and I found plenty but I don't know if they are the original ones or not .. Coz I heard if it isn't, the NFC is faked in the duplicate ones.. Please help me find a white one, thanks!
Need a wireless charger for my GS6, thanks.
I've had this PowerBot for a while and it works fine. Price varies a bit depending on the color your want. It may not be the fastest, but I'm OK with that as it does not get the phone too hot either.

I bought one of these based on comments on XDA, and bought two more after confirming that it is excellent. Each unit has 3 coils, so it reliably charges the phone in numerous different positions. It is grippy on both the top and bottom, so it snuggly holds the phone and stays securely on the table-top. It is small, but not too small -- the width is the same width of the phone and the length is about 75% of the phone's length. I always place my phone flush on the surface with the camera bump hanging off the top of the charger, and it charges beautifully. Finally, it causes no considerable heat and no whine or noise of any kind.
A couple things to note: (1) It does not come with a USB wall wart. It only has the charging pad and a micro-usb cable. (2) It does not work with Samsung's fast charging USB wall wart (not sure why). (3) There is a blue LED that lights up when it's activated, which might bother some people (I've covered mine with electrical tape).
What's wrong with the suggestions in the other threads?

I couldn't tell you because I haven't tried...and I don't have a metal case to test it. My wife has an S6 with a thin silicone case and, as you would expect, it works perfectly fine with that. I have an S6-edge, and I keep it bare. While I don't have personal experience with a metal bumper case, I can only speculate that this charger will work as good as the best in light of the 3 coil system. Good luck.

I personally have the official one from Samsung. Works fine and haven't had issues with it. Use it for both S6 and S3 (yeah, I still use it as my media player when I'm at home, so I'm not eating up battery on the S6)

Forgot the pic. Here it goes. It will flash blue light once you connect it to the power, and it will only flash one time to indicate that the power is on and no other led light at all, so it won't disturb you even put it in your bedroom, love it so much.

I tried the metal "Platinum" cases from BestBuy and none of my 4 Qi chargers could charge through it. The metal definitely seems to interfere.
EDIT: When you say "metal bumper", do you mean only the edge is metal, like the Spigen Hybrid Pro? If so then of course that metal would NOT interfere.

Yes, that's what I mean. I don't have a full metal case to test for you, sorry can't help you.
This charger works very good so far, It charges very fast even with a tpu case on.
