Hi,
My screen got a pretty bad scratch. Like a peace scraped of with the blade.
Anyone know if I could buy new front cover from ebay and change it. Or is the screen and the top plastic not separate?
Thanks.
the screen is seperate and you can get them off e-bay fairly cheap

thanks for the reply mate.
My screen is not scratched but the plastic on top of it.
So my question is are they glued together like on some phones. Or are they separated so I can get a new front panel. I only can find screen only on ebay not the top plastic if you know what I mean.
Sorry for my bad English.
you can buy a new housing but it will require some dissassembling. ebay housings come.
with the required tools to take it apart.
phandroid.com/htc-magic-manual.pdf
this guide shows you how to do it.
hey,
problem is that they only include the plastic around the screen.

(replace xx with tt)
If you look carefully you can see that where the screen is. There is just a hole no plastic or anything.
I am going to be dissasembing a Magic tomorrow for a digitizer replacement and can provide more info then, but my guess would be that you need a new digitizer, this piece is the actual touch panel of the phone.
The link provided shows the Magic dissasembly and digitizer replacement.

Keep in mind if you order a digitizer from Ebay or HK, there seems to be more than one type of digitizer for this phone.

Thanks bro... this is what I needed to know.

This seems perfect as you get the screen included so you don't have to pray the digitizer off. But will it work on my htc magic?
Magic has been disassembled and digitizer has been removed. (Very easy)
The phone is a 32A and the digiitzer is apparently a Type 1 digitizer. There seem to be two availiable: On the type 1, the chips orientation on the ribbon cable is diagonal while on the type 2 it's orienation is square.
Here is the reason for replacing:
And here is the digitizer for my PVT 32A:

BTW, the title of that ad if very misleading, if you read the ad thoroughly, you will notice that there is absolutely no mention of a digitizer being included anywhere in the ad. Only:
1 x Brand new LCD Screen
Open tools (Free)
1 x T5 / 1x T6 / 1x + / 1x pry tool

I am not sure if a 32B constitutes a type 2 digitizer, I was hoping that more people who have replaced theirs could post what they have found, so we could try to document it.
Well, recieved my new digitizer. I did all my research and selected one that I knew was the same as the digitizer that I took out of the phone, lots of close up photos in his Ebay store (a Type 1). The item arrived at my door, and wouldnt you know, it is a Type 2. And I can officially say that the two types are not compatible, a Type 2 will not work in a phone with a Type 1 digitizer in it.
So, I dont know if there is a specific place for this, but I can not give any type of endorsement to the ebay Store / Seller named: easyworldwidetrading
Here is the item I ordered.
And here is the item I recieved.

Look at the orientation of the big chip on the cable. Notice the difference on the two digitizer pics posted. Also take look at the cnn.cn website to see the 2 different digitizers.

Don't know if anybody has this too, but i have cracks in the grey casing.
If i slide open the keyboard, the upper part of the casing (the part with the display) has some crack right above the buttons with start and contacts...
It started as very little cracks and they become gradually bigger. They started as small vertical cracks (just barely visible with he eye) but they grew bigger and they are now even horizontal cracks in it.
Horizontal meaning.... Parallel with keyboard in slide open position.
Am i the only one ? or is anybody experiencing the same problems ?

I'll probably get the CDMA version (Sprint), since CDMA coverage is much better in the US, let alone here in NYC.
According to the prelim specs on PDADB, here's a size comparison with the S730: zomg!

T-Mobile Wing is not the same phone as HTC Wings!
Take a look at my crack!
Here is a picture of my crack
Poor picture quality, I know..
A hairline crack about 4 mm long has shown up on mine. On the screen half of the housing close to the camera button. I can't believe that HTC could hve used low quality plastic. It's has only 4 months of use !
Mine also, same place as Alcaline, realy small right know...
crack on mine too
same location as Alcaline. not that bad though.
I called the HTC repair center in France. it will take 8 days for changing the case. Should be cover by the warranty.

They cover this by warranty? Crap!
I have opened my device, thereby broken the warranty...
Same problem here. I've got two hairline cracks. one left of the camera button and one left of the Home key (same as picture above)
I contacted HTC today. They told me I could send my phone to Eurotwice for repair. Eurotwice told me that the phone could not be repaired under warranty, because HTC did not confirmed the 'hairline crack' problem.
Called HTC again and told them that I was surprised to hear that the problem could not be fixed under warranty since so many users are facing the same problem.
Now a ticket is created for me and escalated to another department within HTC. They are going to investigate this case and determine if this is a design error. If so they will release an announcement to the repair center and my phone can be repaired under warranty.
For now I have to wait....
I keep you guys informed about the progress
Goodday XDA members and Wings Owners,
I have a Wings myself allthough i am verry disapointed in the worthless quality of the phone, no gps, ram issue, and bad cover. The other day when i slided out my keyboard there broke a piece of my cover just on the side of the screen. There are also bursts in this place next to the screen, i returned it for warranty but its 13 months old. So the phone company told me to mail HTC what takes ages before you get a response.
Annyway i want my cover fixt with or without warranty.
Does someone know this problem or HAS it?
A relpy would be nice thanks.
Your best bet is finding a replacement housing for the S730, which are on ebay for like $40.
I must say that my S730 still is in perfect shape, but I handle mine really careful.
yes i have the same problem ....where i can find on ebay????
if you search on ebay
s730 full housing
you will find some cover (pad, keyboard,slider,front,back and display) at 40~60 dollars from honk kong.
i'd like to get one dark grey (like the atmos or softbank) but i cannot assemble it

out of curiosity, once i purchase the housing cover from ebay, how is it that it is applied on the phone?
glue?, screws? .....something i could do? or look for a guy at the flea market?...........i am about to buy the covers.....but am kinda skeptical
Ive been wondering the same, i got two htc wings with broken cover..
How do you put it togheter? anyone knows?
so i ordered the cover for 40$ from hong kong (it includes some cheap plastic tools also, one that looks like a plastic popsicle stick with several bends, another weird small scredw driver).....the package arrived at my doorstep 6 days later, I went to the guy at the mall with a cart/booth full of phone **** but said he could do it for 30$ and would take an hour...............2 hours later i returned to him telling me that taking apart the keyboard and back cover would be too delicate for him and could mess it up....all in all, he replaced the front cover, keypad and gave me a screen (from an old S720).....the face of my phone is flawless (except for one miniscule piece of sawdust)......the battery cover is also flawless ......i only have one small scuff mark over by the camera button........other than that im also lovin HTC BLACK by DJ OUB !!!
I recently bought this phone on ebay for 105$ with a busted cover, 40$ for the faceplate, and 30$ for the service ........i'll keep this s730 for a while....tho i also have my eye on the s740....is that much different?
i like very much the s740, but it is so expansive
but it is totally different from the wings, more slim, more light, stylish black chassis, the sliding qwerty is opposit respect the wings, it has RAM 256MB!!
of course it is the perfect slidephone, but it is expansyve...
wow, $60 is quite profitable, if you can show me the picture of the ebay auction, I think I could get the same one for u at xda-developer special price
But anyway, accessories for Wings is quite hard to find here in HK, I have been looking for a plastic protective case for it but I could only find some in Taiwan... and out of stock eventually
here is a pic of the phone housing cover i bought on ebay to replace my busted faceplate.....shipped from hong kong, mind you, the guy who fixed my phone only used the FACEPLATE and battery cover....apparently the keyboard half of it is very delicate and has very small delicate parts....who knows, maybe he was scared to try it...

about the case for it....im currently using a generic one thats padded to death, im takin care of this phone....we're in a recession so i recently ordered the most inexpensive phone case for the s730 that i saw for 10$:
i also got my eyes on this metal one tho too (
) its gonna be like 25$ with shipping and all....any thoughts
here are other cases i saw up for bids....do u guys have any of these?:
the metal case is super!! but our wings are really fat... and with that case i'm afraid that it cannot enter in my slim jeans pockets!!!

What about the small speaker on the backside of the frontcover, was that included in the full housing package you bought on eBay? It seems impossible to move that speaker from one front cover to another due to the rubber with glue going apart when dismounting it from the cover.
Update: I can see the the service manual for the S710 (Vox) that HTC calls this part for "Receiver". Strangely they doesn't write a part no. in the service manual for that specific part. I would REALLY like to have the service manual for the S730, but I can't find it anywhere...
My silver x1 housing is now full of scratches and the known cracks (under the volume buttons and beside the powering), so i'm considering buying a new original black housing ...
If anyone got to buy one online, please suggest me good insured places to shop from..
Thanks in advance

Dummy phone .... dummy housing
I bought the black housing for my silver X1 from mobile.brando.com, since my back housing was crack, and sonyericsson Jakarta (indonesia) don't provide the replacement casing (at least should waiting arroung 1 month) and not giving warranty for the crack housing, although it is SE fault as mention in other thread.
It took about 2 weeks until I got it the housing (mobile.brando.com is in hongkong, and I'm in Jakarta).
The housing is not complete with bolt covers (2 small parts located above the camera) and the battery cover does not have X1 sticker.
It consists of Front & Back Housing, battery cover, and keyboard.
See it on their website.
So i combine the silver and the black housing. Front is silver, back is black, with silver battery cover, silver stylus, and silver bolt covers.
It seems very attractive combination.

Nice, I used spray paint and spray-on enamel, but it wrinkled just a little, it's fine, though. I might sand and redo later. Did the nail polish come out smoothly?

The screen works great. I found that in the process of dismantling the unit I punctured the Digitizer flex ribbon. It works great except there is about 1" of the bottom of the screen that does not respond.
suprduprchunk,
I dropped and cracked the glass on my S7 this afternoon. The screen itself is perfect, just cracks in the glass. Does the glass come apart from the screen? Did the Screen you bought come with the glass? Any ideas where I could buy the gorilla glass by itself? I've been Googling but so far have had no luck.
thanks,
DC
The screen and glass are not glued together, there's in fact an air gap.
The glass and lcd are all on one sub-assembly, but I dont know if the glass can be easily removed from it. I believe it's fairly easy to swap out the lcd itself though.
Could you provide some insight into this? I havnt bothered disassembling that part of the s7.

There have to be other people out there who need parts!
Hi, my name is Marvin, and I'm a long time fan of XDA (all the way back to my 1st pocket PC: Audiovox 4100!),
and I've 'evolved' to my current devices: Sony Experia Play R800x (Verizon flashed to Cricket) & a Viewsonic G Tablet ;^ )
I just bought a Streak 7 with a cracked screen on craigslist for $50! Well, once I got home, I was glad to see that the digitizer seemed intact, and only the LCD underneath was cracked (badly). I've replaced several phone LCDs/digitizers (yes, I have 3M tape strips!)... so, I thought "no problem, $50-75 on eBay" Oops!!! Boy was I wrong!!!
All I could find were Streak 5 LCDs for $48... and NONE for the Streak 7! (found NOTHING online, called Dell support: $249, and they don't sell parts) Yikes!
So, I found the PDAdb.com datasheet (DUH!), and searched for '7" TFT LCD 800x480 40 pin' that matched the specs the best... and I found the same Samsung panel that suprduprchunk wrote about here in this thread! Cool. Glad to know it works!!! *the LMS700KF23 has better viewing angles than the 05/06 versions, so it seems to be the one to get.
LOL sorry for the blabbin... I'm just stoked to have found this thread, and the prospects for 'my current gadget daydream' to have a happy ending!
(I just can't wait to see this cool new toy light up, and start exploring) :^ )

Steak 7 data sheet you mentioned:
PDAdp.net http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=2329&view=1&c=dell_streak_7_4g__looking_glass_dell_opus_one
I found the data sheet for the LMS700KF23 and it has a 40 pin ribbon, not 60 pin. Did you mean to write 40?
Also I found that the source that supplies the LMS700KF23 also will sell the Touch Panel screen only. I broke the glass on my screen but the LCD screen works perfectly so I need glass only.

Has anyone found a source for Streak 7 replacements parts. Dell won't sell them, we have a Enterprise Business account and they won't sell them to us.
I would great appreciate any help in this area.
Thanks,
Tony

Has anyone found any other sources for parts? One guy did find a screen for around $90 delivered. I only need the class that covers the LCD screen. I can't believe Dell has abandoned customers who bought the Streak 7. I posted a link a week or so ago to an ebay seller from China (?) who sells the replacement screen and offers his customers replacement glass only for $10. I contacted him and he says it wouldn't be worth my while to have only the glass shipped. I imagine he wants to sell the screen for the $90 and as a bonus throws in inexpensive glass only replacements.

Digitizer Source
Hello everybody. I have the same exact problem with my tablet; except it just stopped working, but not dropped. I need some guidance, and I also found a repair website if anybody is tired of waiting to find some sources. I also would like to know if anybody has tried that digitizer a few posts above.
Thanks,

Spoke with the eBay guy in China, he wasn't sure about the part numbers. I have one I got on eBay with a broken screen and may not power up, need the charger to find out. I told him I'll open it and get the part numbers.
IF anyone has the actual part numbers, not the replacement ones, then he said he can help us find the LCDs and the Digitizers, the glass could be sold with the replacement parts. I can find out once I have some part numbers to send him.
"If you find the part number,I can look for it or I can find a supplier,who can do a customizd TP for that LCD."
Not to be offtopic
I'm looking for a source for the power brick - I bought my DS7 from a member here and the spring-clip that holds the blade to the charging brick was broken off. Not to mention, would be nice to be able to charge my cell phone at twice the speed as the original charger was able to do - have tested it with the DS7 charger (duct-taped in place) and it ran my battery to full on the quick
The charger is just a standard [email protected] usb charger with the data pins shorted together.
Hello everyone,
So my p20 pro back glass just broke :crying:
anyone have any idea how to replace it and how much the replacement should cost ?
Thanks!
I feel your pain! My rear lens just smashed. No idea how it happened. Was fine this morning. Checked phone at lunchtime and it's smashed !? It's the lens over the middle camera. Phone's only been in my pocket (not with keys etc.) or padded phone pocket in bag.
I can not find any replacment parts for sale. Huawei quoted 100 or so pounds to repair the lens, as they replace the entire back cover, so I guess that would be the cost for you too
Whilst googling for spare parts I came across sites complaing how difficult the phone was to repair and how easy it is to damage.
Guess i'll need to find a case that protects those camera lenses better.
100£ :crying:
I found this one on aliexpress
aliexpress[.]com/item/Original-GLASS-For-Huawei-P20-PRO-Back-Battery-Cover-Rear-Door-Housing-Case-Glass-Panel-Replacement/32883939820.html but I'm not so sure if I'm capable to replace it myself...
Only the lens it's cheaper tho : aliexpress[.]com/item/For-Huawei-P-20-pro-p20-pro-Replacement-Back-Rear-Camera-Lens-Glass-For-Huawei-P20pro/32872094518.html
Thanks for the links.
The lens looks interesting but I hope that pic isn't accurate, because it doesn't seem right.
On my phone the bevels around each camera are a different size, and there are two more holes for the lazers range finder things?
Yeah I just check mine, I guess this lens is not for the pro version
I just ask a Huawei's Service center :
The original one is about 90€ + 30€ fee = about 120€ :crying:
I've found a lens cover on ebay:

And from the same place, a glass back:

I bought one yesterday. The rear panel should arrive in about 2 weeks.
I'll let you know
In regards to replacing parts on the this phone, if you need a tear down and i'm guessing you will, to retain it's waterproofing and your warranty, i'd either get Huawei to complete the works and or your insurance, if you have it.
Unless you're a wizard with phones i wouldn't even attempt it.
Not sure if this pics are going to work, but I've just replaced mine.
I ordered a few lenses and they arrived today. Relatively quick post given they came from so far away! (I'd ordered the quicker postage).
The procedure is the same as most phones these days. Sticky tape over the lens and peel off to get most of the broken glass off. Heat with a heat gun for a short while so it's hot to the touch. Then very carefully pick the glass off, holding the phone sideways to it doesn't drop in the lens. I did this over some newspaper to catch the broken fragments, then rolled the paper up and threw it away as soon as the glass was removed (otherwise it gets everywhere).
I used an air duster to get rid of any fragments.
Then I stuck the supplied adhesive over the lens, and stuck the new lens on.
Quick test and everything seems to work. Focusing, clarity of pics all seems fine.
You're probably right about the waterproofing though to be honest I wouldn't trust it underwater anyway, I just think of it as more splash proof in case of an accident, and I'm sure that's still fine. The new lens seems is a good fit and seems to be attached in just the same way the old one was.

Mine just arrived today. Very good quality, the look and feel is the no less than origin.
But I doubt it's original. CE logo and some text next to Huawei logo (model ..) is not there.
I don't think I can't change it my self, I guess I'll go to a repair shop this afternoon :cyclops:
For the warranty I expect it to be voided anyway... paying ~120€ is too much (1/6 telephone price...)
Here some image :laugh:
Looks good @midnightsmurf, where did you find that back panel? Makes me wonder if i could use it to swap out my one at a later date
Cool @midnightsmurf, if you could share the source, that would be great. I like the cleaner look without the CE logo much better.
I bought the rear from aliexpress . On aliexpress there are some cheaper one tho.
So the repair store's guy replaced it for me for 9€. I'm actually quite happy with the result:
Sorry for the image's resolution, I took it with my other phone

Looks sick, might actually buy that as I like twilight.
How the fitting going? Sounds like a massive ballache to fix it and retain water proofing
Edit: omg just read your last post. 9 euro haha that's insane, must be quite easy then, must just be heat to remove it.
Fair play

Hi
i want to ask you
The YouTube videos teardown show that the original case comes with a flex cable for the camera, this cable is linked to a body port for camera zoom
did the case that you bought come with this cable? (i bought one on eBay but it doesn´t come the flex cable)
does you have notice any changes in the camera performance after the replacement?
Best regards
I bought a replacement (just in case... you know...) from eBay and it seems to be an original chinese part. No CE logo of course (it's not necessary there) but the model number states AL-..... and some text in chinese. I actually like it better because the CE logo is distracting - in my opinion.

The cable is linked with the sensor I think. Mine doesn't have the sensor in it. The guy who replace it for me must have used the old sensor one.
Here a picture of the broken part. And for your question, I'm not 100% sure but I didn't notice any different.
