I've dropped my Wizard (Qtek 9100) so many times that the case (shell) is very scratched, banged-up and ugly. Is it possibl eto buy a replacement casing (shell) for my phone... I don't care if it is a different brand, so long as it works. Is it difficult to change?
Here you go.

I suggest to get it skinned...does it exist in Europe (I did it in CHina) for something like 3 USD...and it look great
let me know ...i mcurious to know if exist anything like this in Europe...
they got skin in singapore and sydney here. but singapore have more choices. i use to have an eten m500 which is skinned black matte there similar to black v3 style. it looks so damn hot since it got chrome buttons. i havent skinned my dopod 838 yet and regretted not doing so since i dropped it once on a carpet and part of the back battery case chipped off. small chip but i know its ther!! =( ever since that happened i use a pouch and a wrist lanyard for extra precaution.
btw i heard that skinning kiosk existed in hongkong as well but i dont know wher it is. i might be goin ther soon and want to skin my wizard. any kind lads from hk knows wher it is and can give a simple direction wher it is? like nearest to which station, in what name shopping mall?? and if it is good or not? i dont want any bad skilled skinners to do them either.
Where can I find these "skins" in America? Canada or USA?
ok in Hong Kong you can go to SIN TAT in MONG KOK just get off at MTR station (mong kok) and then ask for SIN TAT
in Guangzhou where is cost 38 yuan it means 3 USD u can do in SHANG XIA LOU or in HAIYIN market
I hope it can help
if you come to HK give me a PM if you need help to find those places

Does anyone know if it possible to fit a Cingular 8125 shell onto a QTEK? If so, where can I get one?
I found that the Qtek shell is cheap and the chrome finish rubbed off and looks like crap.

Giordano,
I am really interested in a rubber/silicone skin for my imate K-Jam. Do you think you can ship one to me? Do you have a picture of your Qtek 9100 with skin? I am a Malaysian living in USA.

Hm.
That would be fantastic if you could somehow work out shipping those skins to us needy Americans. Do you have any pictures or information on what you'd like for compensation?
Just for the record - how the hell you're expecting to use the keyboard in this rubber thingy?

My own screen has some scuffs and scratches, and i was looking for a new one. Now i know because of my old job that having it replaced at a repair-center (i worked at one) that will cost me something like 160 euro's.
But now i found a company (www.iiparts.com) on internet that sells the "samsung LTP280QV" displays for $75 a piece (for minimum of 5 pieces) and thats a good price i think.
These displays are used in the wizard and the magician ( :!: but Toppoly TD028STEB1 is also used, and they are not interchangeable :!: )
Maybe if there is enough interest for those displays we could buy some together (saves a lot of postage costs :lol: )?
It is not my goal to make money out of this, but to all save money.
So if anyone who is seriously interested could PM me, then i'll see if its worth it.
Goodluck.

Same here
That's not what he is asking guys.
There are a lot of users who won't use protectors because of disadvantages with it.
So if anyone is interested in a new display and don’t mind to do some DIY then please add your thread.

thnks drifter, thats what i want to say. And as i saw on the forum, there are a lot of people who dropped their device and have a broken LCD. For them it's also a lot cheaper, and DIY doesn't matter for them because their warranty is already voided because of dropping it.
.....
I already have sent my 9100 to the repair center....
If they will ask me a lot, I will contact you soon.
Today I got back my PDA....
I have disassembled it to check the type of the screen but it is a "Toppoly TD028STEB1"
Do someone know where to buy this kind of screen?
http://www.google.com/search?q=Toppoly+TD028STEB1
That should get you started I imagine

Could someone know this e-shop ?
Did anyone buy something from there?

BUMP!
Hallo?!?!?
anyone?
is there anybody out there?
My question is there a screen which has decent sensitivity. I have had two T-Mobile MDAs and both are pretty poor when it comes to screen tap sensitivity. Also I have a continuous problem with alignment. After about a week I have to carry out a hard reset. Example if I am searching in my contacts database and use the scroll bar on the right side of the screen instead of scrolling the contact the stylus is adjacent to is selected. I have tried screen recalibration and that does not correct the issue. The only resolution is to clear storage and that is getting very aggrivating. Any suggestions. I am running Mr. Clean rev 2.4a. Am I looking at a software glitch or a bad screen... My guess is a substandard screen.
Bump again....
I still need to get the screen!!!!!!
Do you know if there's an easy way to determine which screen is installed without having to disassemble the phone? My Wizard100 (Cing2125) is fairly new and I just want to avoid disassembly unless it is really, really, really needed...
Sorry but I have no idea how to get that info without "explode" the PDA.
It will help to keep the guarantee as valid
Taking the Magician and Wizard apart
Hi,
How easy is it to take the magician and wizard apart?
...and put back together
I've looked on the net for hours and not found any instructions. On this site I have seen people talk of repairing their phones but no guides or indication of how easy/hard it is
thanks,
Graham.
OK, I found the service manual for the wizard at:
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wizard/Docs_Tutorials/Wizard_Service_Manual.pdf
but what about the Magician?
thanks,
Graham.
I'm waiting for spare parts from china....
LCD , cover house, batteries -thin&thik,
I hope everything will be right
sorry but i have no idea about Magician

And mayb one of them wants to sell or change.

xmoo i can gladly trade it but why do u want it that desperately?...The final one is muuuuch better. Besides, its not worth it and as it has been already said, its just a back metal cover of the beta units sent along to us as beta testers.

Maybe we could ask HTC for making a limited spare part edition. I'd like to have that battery cover, too!

yes but they post it on other sites to and they sell from over there so they just change the price
It's a wholesale lot of 100 SP.
Item package:
3 MIRROR Screen Protector + 1 Cleaning Cloth
Retail package
Box contents:
100 items
when you see the word "lot" in the title, it means theres a bundle of the same items included. i used to buy phone parts in lot back in my hardware modding days. so if you read the whole posting, 100 packages of 3 pack screen protectors for £105 is a good deal. thats about £.40 a screen. as far as "iphone not included", that message is a general pic so the seller dosent have to custom tailor every posting for a different phone. laziness on their behalf but you get the point. just my 2 cents on not finding it stupid nor should the poster be shot.
Yup, you misunderstood.
Haha, I don't think the OP should buy from eBay.
But also, the seller had bad communication. He also failed to be accurate with his description.
The item is for the Xperia X1, not the iPhone.
never mind. But he didn't bother to write a suitable description for that device.
True. But, these people are from Hong Kong and never get English right when i'm dealing with them.

why not? you buy 100 for 100 and sell them for 3 bucks each...you just made 200 + shipping costs. theres money to be made out there and ebay is a great way to capitalize. you gotta figure, 100 people in the world will be looking for a screen protector for the x1. you sell it for cheap and people will buy.

Not all China-based sellers have bad English.
An eBay seller by the name of Easecase who operates and ships from China has a customer service person who writes and understands excellent English. I should add that their customized cases are amazing. I mean their cases are the BEST.
hey there friends,
I've been thinking of buying an HD2 for my wife as well. with scratching our names on the back out of consideration, we were thinking of getting a vinyl skin for our HD2s in order to make distinguishing between our phones ..
i just wanted to know if anybody here has been using gelaskins vinyl..http://www.gelaskins.com/catalog.php?DeviceID=103&CategoryID=56
or any other option..
Is it possible to open your cellphone with that on?

You will probably never get a perfect fit with these. Its a good idea, but it will never look as good as the pics on the site. Just buy one of those tight fitting cases in different colors.
I have tried these with other phones before, the thing is they look nice when new but it only takes 1-2 months before the colors fade away and the corners to peel off. imho they are not worth 15-20$.

i've used decalgirl skin's vinyl for my PS3.. perfect fit n easy application/re-application. no fading till date(its abt 2 years old) but as phone will be kept on its back n keep rubbing the pouch while inserting taking out of it.. the fading might occur.

Just ordered for my 2 hd2's and my 3 ipod touches. If it works i'll have to get one for the ipad.
Any idea if these are for the European HD2? The image they use in the thumbnail is that of the US HD2.
X2 on that one. Doesn't say if its for US HD2 or European HD2.
Would it differ majorly though? I sent them an email, so lets see what they say. I think invisibleshield only sells one type for the HD2.
Regardless, I've placed an order, so I guess I'll just cancel it if they say it won't fit the GSM HD2.
