I bought mine and didn't even touch it and there's a gap between the charger and the bottom cover of the phone where you can see the SIM card. Just a very poor design.
I have the same problem. I opened it to swap the sd card, and since then it doesn't close perfectly anymore.
I called htc about this, and they confirm that they only sell the upper part of the back cover. You can send it in, but then it'll cost you about 40 dollars for the fix, minus the shipping. I just ordered a silicone cover instead.
I just hope that they will start selling those bottom parts too.

I agree with you I have seen many review criticise this! There seems to be a poor quality control at HTC for the HD7, the gap to me looks like about 1mm that's not acceptable!
Fortunately I have been very luck my HD7 does not have that gap!
It's a shame ... seriously ... the back housing is not the only part of a low quality ...
Even the power button doesnt seem to work properly (after two week of usage!) and i have to press it really hard to get it to work.
and I also saw the "Tarnished camera button" in the other thread ...
HTC!!!! SERIOUSLY?!!!
my local HTC repair shop contacted a lot of people but was also unable to get the part. i am thinking of superglue right now ...
superglued down. no other option but its perfect now
The gap annoyed me after I upgraded it to 32GB... So I carefully sanded down some of the plastic lugs and superglued the bottom part to the body. Yup, I know it was quite drastic but at least I've ended up with a perfect HD7... And a voided warranty! It's a shame that HTC allowed this horrible gap. My old HD2 was much better finished.
As much as i'd like to post a link for some back covers for you all there seems to be a lack of spare parts for the moment . I did however find a coverall solution that although doesn't fix your phones will at least let you hold it together until we can buy some at a later date

I just got this phone as a gift a month and a half ago, and somehow, just somehow the screen got cracked in my pocket. Everything still works fine, phone works great as always, but the screen is all messed up.
I went to a local Telus store, and they said they don't do repairs on physical damage which is stupid IMO. And I think the warranty my brother paid for might be up, he's not sure. And even so, I'm almost positive they'll say the warranty doesn't cover physical damage. The guy said my only hope would be to look for a 3rd party company online that can do repairs.
I tried looking around for a Screen/Digitizer Repair Kit for telus online, but they only had some for the sprint model of the phone. I know they're the same, but the screen shapes are clearly different.

Replacement LCD
Hi. Have a look on ebay. I would recommend you buy a complete LCD and digitiser pre-assembled in one unit... These typically cost around £35 UK pounds when bought from sellers in Hong Kong. You will need a set of jewellers screw drivers (mini torx drivers), and a set of tweezers. Also, would recommend downloading a Service Manual for the Diamond if you have never taken one apart before (you can find this with Google). You need to be very careful though, because there are two small black coaxial cables inside the device that carry the GPS, bluetooth/wifi signals from the upper antenna board to the lower motherboard. These are very easily damaged and it is difficult to locate replacements. I've changed a few LCDs in the past and it is relatively easy if you are careful and methodic about taking the device apart. If you are unsure, I would recommend finding a third party replacement service on the internet to do it for you....
i was seen one of your post. my diamond screen was broken and i get it to a serviceman. after he replace its touchscreen i lost my wifi,gps , bluetooth and phone microphone. can you help me to repair it? thanks alot
I have attached a photo of my AT&T Tilt. I recently dropped it and I want to know if I just need to replace the screen or if there is another issue. The phone works perfectly but the screen has weird colors and distortion. Also, this is the screen I was looking at purchasing to replace the damaged screen: http://cgi.ebay.com/New-LCD-Touch-S...c0.m14&_trkparms=65:16|66:2|39:1|293:2|294:50 .

I'm not 100% sure, but I think it might have to do with the ribbon cable that goes to the screen.

I just had a similar problem. Dropped my work laptop right on my screen, corner first mind you haha...
I bought this http://cgi.ebay.com/US-LCD-Screen-D...trkparms=65:12|66:1|39:1|72:1234|293:2|294:25
and got it fixed no problem. Took about 2 hours of tearing it apart and reassembling to do.
The screen includes the cable so if that is the issue then you are still fine. The screen comes with the dissembler tool, and the security screwdrivers you will need.
See the Kaiser Wiki for full disassemble instructions that worked quite well for me.
bobtheamazing - can you let me know how is the quality of the new screen?
uzim289 if you bought yours - can you let me know how the quality of the screen is ?
and any personal advice if i decide to take mine apart. Thank you.
I took mine to Vegas, kept it in my pocket, it was sure hot and my screen cracked... need to replace but wasn't sure if i should spend $80 on a certain website of just go the route of ebay.
Before you buy another screen I would recommend taking the phone apart first and just checking to see if the connector is loose. How far of a drop was it and what kind of surface did it hit?
This site
http://www.fonlogix.us/att-tilt-lcd-screen.html
I got my replacement screen from here and it was the best decision. trust me. I replaced my screen about 4 months ago, and my Tilt is just fine.
I bought a replacement for my Kaiser at Marktplaats.nl but that's for the netherlands. Replaced the lcd according the video from Fonlogix. I uploaded the video allso a while ago to youtube which made it verry easy to replace and now it works like a charm again. You might whant to check THIS SITE for a replacement.
Good luck.
:Edit:
I just noticed Fonlogix is cheaper
I replaced my sons Tilt LCD been like 8 months now works perfect no issues!
Not that hard to replace the screen just have to keep a sharp eye out for the teeny tiny screws!
Anybody know where to get the 'teeny tiny' screws? As I was removing the job wheel assembly, the small silver-colored screw was stripped out. Funny, it was the correct screwdriver size and everything, and other screws came out fine.
Hello. i have got my ace for about 3 weeks. Last week i ve noticed that my black back panel of phone is not good adhering in one corner and it makes not very comfortable sound if i push it softly with my hand in some situations. it is mostly noticible when i hold the phone in one hand. i m not aware that i wasn t careful when i put off and put on the cover. Is this thing under my warranty?
Is this thing under my warranty?
It would make sense if it was since even the backpanel is a part of the actual phone itself.
I experienced some creak-sound after accidently dropping the phone, so if it occurred after dropping the phone, technically you shouldnt get any compensation but you could just tell 'em that it was like that from the start.
Thanks, i will see my seller. I hope they will change it, because this really wasn't my fault.
So answer of customer centre was, that they will send the phone somewhere and if it is only back cover problem it will be replaced soon. but i don t get why they need tho whole phone in this case. I don t know if it is worth trying if i can have my phone back in one week but also in one month. Especially when i have also second white cover.
Not worth the whole process. What they will do with the phone is to check where to problem dwells. It might be that the phone got cracked/damaged, or it might simply be the backcover that got damaged somewhere.
Either way you'll end up wasting time.
If you check out this thread ull find a link to buy a new cover from ebay (only 6$), there is a black one for sale as well from the same seller, bought 1 black and 1 white from the seller, 100% satisfied with the covers.
But since you have a 2nd one already, if you dont mind it being white, just use it!
Wasn't there two back panels in your package? If so, try on the other cover.

silicon case is much better than back cover.

Not all markets included the white backpanel.
yes i used white panel, but i like the black one more. my seller sent me to samsung service centre if i want to try repair/change quicker. however i was told there that the stuff like this and under warranty have to be sent with whole phone. so i asked how much cost the new black panel. it is 3 euros and some cents. i think it is good price so i have ordered one.
i only had one backpanel by my ace

Hi,
My Z3C must've randomly lost part of the bottom bezel at some point - I still don't understand why and how.
Phone was always in a TPU bumper case so it can't fall off or out. Must've gotten loose and dropped at some point when I removed the bumper to remove the sim card.

The part that's missing is the edge part between bottom bezel and SIM card flap.
Phone was just sent in for repair for another issue(vibration more had a loose connection) and I got it back without issues..but that part of the bezel is still missing. Didn't mention it when it was repaired in fear of Sony denying a warranty repair.
Fixing it would be 5s job with super glue....so any idea where and how to get that part ?
Did lots of googling but couldn't find anything.
Only other option I could think of would be buying a broken/dead Z3C and ripping that bezel piece off.
youll probably have to get the whole frame
Seems like a waste. The small part that's missing ist just glued on.
Guess I'll have to look for a broken Z3C to get the spare part.
Are there Showroom models of the Z3C ? Like they have in shops sometimes, just the exterior without any electronics inside.
*Edit* Oh ok now I realize what you meant.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/for-Sony-Xp...Metal-Frame-Bezel-Plate-ZVHR277-/301593214487
Didn't expect the entire frame to be that cheap! Thanks m8.
I have a lot of it but if You live outside EU shipping can be more expensive than those fram on eBay.
I do live in the EU but allready ordered the ebay bezel.
Thanks though, might help out the next guy.
No problem. I have a lot of it cause whole frame is a trash after changing whole screen using original part. Anyway good advice for You - change only bumpers You need, not the whole frame. If You don't have knowledge hot to remove screen safety just skip it.

Hi there,
I recently dropped my dear Z3 Compact on a rock and the screen is completely cracked (glass + screen + digitizer).
I really love that phone and I want to try to repair it by myself (also, I would like to get back my pictures...).
After a couple of day of Googling, I found that I could by a replacement screen without frame or a replacement screen with frame. It's roughly the same price, so I don't know what to choose.
Is it easier to change the all frame since the screen is already glued ?
Is it more reliable with the frame ?
Thank a lot for your help ! (And long life to the Z3 Compact! :victory: )

Definitely go for a screen with frame. I would suggest to buy second hand but original screen as the "chinese" versions are low quality. If you would buy just the screen without the frame it is really hard to stick it into the frame and if you eventually do it after a while it will come off or start to come off. Hard to stick I mean there is not much space to put an adhesive tape unless you'll get some original adhesive tape for it. But from my experience I was giving extra $ to purchase original screeen with the frame. Changing it its not so complicated but you have to be carefull with ribbons. Good luck

Thank you for your help.
Finding a cheap second hand original screen seems not really easy nowadays. So, I think I would have to try the "chinese" ones.
I found an offer for a Z3 Compact replacement screen with frame on a website called eTradeSupply.
Do you know this website ? And the quality of their products ? It seems that grade S+ is full OEM but I am not sure if it's true.
