Self Healing Body Frame? - HTC U11 Questions & Answers

Well, I bought my U11 since almost 2-3 months. I like its feeling so I didn't use the provided back cover, neither bought any cover. This needed me to take extra care to not make it fall.
However, it fell eventually, but not from a high distance, though, the body frame got a noticeable scratch on the SIM card holder part, and due to the scratch, the affected part color became white (the phone is red). Today, I looked at the phone and it has no scratch! No white color, it is all red again!
So, actually, I'm not believing myself. Does this phone frame self heals itself? I'm sure I wasn't dreaming!

I think you were either dreaming or mistaken. The frame is not self healing technology.

You might have traded paint from the surface it fell on.

Out of curiosity, what color phone do you have? Care to take a pic?
I have a scratch on the back of my phone as well. I saw it as soon as I took the phone out of the box. It almost goes across the back right above the HTC logo.

Yeah and the Galaxy Note is for elephants
Havent received mine today (I've got white on the way), but based on the material finish and type, I feel inclined to suggest that a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser might do the trick since it's mildy mildly MILDLY abrasive but not enough to scratch the finish, but rather remove any surface impurities (similar to clay-barring a car's paint finish).

I have the grey HOX. I am still trying to figure out how it did scratch since it is in my pocket by itself all the time.
Will post pictures later
Maybe you can try some really really fine sandpaper to get back the matte finish. Don't try anything used for polishing.

Polycarbonate, from Wikipedia:
Polycarbonate is a very durable material. Although it has high impact-resistance, it has low scratch-resistance...

While encasing the phone in polycarbonate may make it nigh invulnerable, it does not ensure that it will remain pretty for its lifetime. Restoring polycarbonate to a gloss would be no issue (see headlight restoration), but restoring a matte finish will probably be difficult. I plan to Otterbox it and forget about it.

Already got the Otterbox on her...def takes away from the form factor, but I think I will leave it on for a while...just seems so sturdy, and protects the camera better than any other case I've seen thus far.

Disassembling Huawei Mate 7

Here's a link and here like the Mate is broken.
thanks for the link !
but it is too slow... is there a way to get it on youtube ?
Unfortunately, it can not be completely record. On the PC, it can, however, look reasonable.
I have just made a little damage (i'm angry against myself).
You can see the damaged part on the picture (the display is completely OK, because there is a tempered glass for protection on it, and all the rest is OK)
Do you think i can order the golden metal part that "circle" the display ?
Spare parts I have not found. However, it must be removed in any case the display. Whether it survives that !?Because I would rather put on a cover.
There is a cover (i removed it for the picture)...
The phone falls from my pocket on the ground... a fall about 1m40...
when the phone touched the ground, the back cover protector moved and one of the corner was damaged just there... it's 3x nothing, but i'm pissed... (i'm a bit maniac )
If only watch better. But is very smooth without cover.

Is definitely the right one frame is. If you sold the old one still at a good price, the cost to be limited.

I just shattered the screen on mine, has anyone taken on apart yet?
Rear cover removal looks easy enough for basic access & a battery refresh but screen work looks less easy & would be hard for average person do a faultless or worthwhile repair job.
Does anyone no how to remove the rear casing (battery door)? I have scratched mine and noticed you can buy the part pretty cheap but noing how this comes if would be much appreciated.

A shot in the dark here...you said this was your wife's phone right? Seeing that it is around the crease of the button...is it possible it is makeup stuck in there from when she presses it to her face on a phone call? Did you try a q-tip and some alcohol to see if it cleans out?

Pretty sure that's makeup stuck in there.
Those parts are plastic.
Turn off device
Q-tip with alcohol
soak the home button
wait a few minutes
Vacuum the moisture out.
Wait an hour or 2
Turn on device.
Nrush it off with a toothbrush and water, that part shpuld get water damage anyways, if the phone dies don't blame me tho lol

OMG!!! I ran my V10 over with Tahoe.

So I was cleaning my rims on my Chevy Tahoe and I had the phone sitting on top the tire listening to Spotify and I was told to move my truck so I moved the bucket and stool I was sitting on but forgot my phone.. ? I drove forward and my dad screamed "STOP" then he said "add 300 to whatever you have to pay for since you just ran over your phone with both wheels" he then picked it up and held it out and said "I'll be damned it's fine." I grabbed it and dusted it off and looked at it amazed.. Not a mark... To be fair it did have a case a Versus High Pro Shield case but damn Im still pretty impressed. 99 Tahoe LT 4 door with 22's. 5500 lbs.. ??

yup that sounds about right lol hard core its ok, soft drop your f#$%'ed lol
Any chance you can link to the case? I'd also like car running over your phone protection lol.
That's how I got my V10...Lol. But my experience was not as good. Note 3, otterbox, and a double axle utility trailer with 4 tons of decorative landscape boulders...
Zdeuce2 now with golden rays of sunshine
Two days ago I dropped it accidentally on a hard ground, the drop was scary, surprisingly the V10 survived without even a scratch on the metal rim, and one day before that I removed the protective case but also it has tempered glass on the screen
This crazy girl I was talking to decided to take my v10 and throw it across her garage. (No case and brand new at the time) I went to pick it up just knowing it was cracked, nope. Minor scratches on the screen and some edge scratches but you do that to an iPhone and it's over. I was still pretty mad that someone would even do that though.

Transparent Oneplus 7 Pro

I just want to share with you my favorite modification to the OnePlus 7 Pro. I love transparent phones and this is what I did with mine.
I am going to replace the tape for glue but I wanted to show you how it looks.

Zhanlida T-7000. It is black and it is very similar to the original. I prefer black because it does not turn yellow with light.

No. It is not waterproof anymore, but if I apply the glue very carefully I can seal it as much as possible. I just love the way it looks.

My Note 9 has glue and I was very careful applying it. I can not assure you that it is 100% waterproof but it has received humidity from rain, wet tables, etc and I have not had a single problem. I gave it to my brother and he loves it. I think that being carefull it can be waterproofed.
Jerryrigeverything and the other guys who make transparent phones just do it to show but not for daily use. I am confident that my phones are sealled. Time will tell but the note 9 has been transparent por months and is perfect.

Yes. I saw it but I preferred the original look. It would be great if the original battery color was red but I do not want to touch the battery.
OP, I have a quick question. Isn't there some sort of black "card" that covers the motor for the front camera? I think it contains the NFC antenna.
Did you lose any functionality (other that waterproofing) by doing this? I only ask because, once I break my back glass (and I'm sure I will eventually), I'll probably do this as well.
Looks good btw.

I removed the black cover to be able to show the camera motor and the board. I just lost NFC which I never use. Everything else works as expected.
In a couple of days I will post new pictures with the back glass glued and I think that I can make it waterproof again or at least splash resistant.

It was mildly water resistant. An not now.
