If you need a replacement volume rocker try looking for broken Xplays on ebay. There could be a good chance that the volume rocker is good and just a broken screen, or something.

You linked up the same one I bought, Just dont replace the middle housing with the speakers and L1 R1 buttons, Use the same housing that came with your r800x , I found out the hard way... After re housing my phone Ive been without service on my device, theres a piece on the middle housing that is needed for the r800x to pick up on Verizons service. But you have the right item in your original post, sorry for long delay, I got pretty sick :/

I was able to remove the piece from one middle housing and put it on the other . I post some photos soon I wanna post a write on it all so other users can do this without all the hassle since I found out the hard way. But ill share you some pics here shortly, I got a few people I need to get some info out to also , I need to get caught up on my android work!
Sent from my R800x using xda premium

Check out the first photo where the back of the middle plate has a black sticker on it, that black sticker on the other side of it is a gold ribbon that goes into the housing and makes contact with two pins on the bottom end of the mother board.
The second photo is the replacement I ordered from the same link you posted in your OP. You could buy the one you linked and peel back the black sticker and super glue it back to the replacement middle housing, which is what I did because the back of the L1 and R1 are white on the new housing and the Verizon triggers are black on the back, looks better in white and in picture three I think I did a pretty decent job even though the photo does it no justice, and minus my thumb print!

[Q] Does anyone feel that the battery cover is too loose?

Is that by design? Maybe just bad design? Or is it just my phone?

I feel like mine is loose too. Always coming off randomly. A case should fix that problem though.

It is a bad design. One side squeaks when I press it and it is too easy to knock off without a case.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using XDA

The back on mine seems fine. Does have a squeak on one side, but stays firmly in place.

Mine 1st vivid felt a little loose....I just tweaked the tabs on the cover til it felt solid. Worked good, just be careful not to
Break them.

It's kind of loose, but when mine gets loose I just pull the cover off and put it back and its tight for another three hours or so.

I think the battery cover issue was resolved. My replacement units battery cover had thicker clamp tabs, doesn't squeak of make my phone feel like a cheap knockoff.

Yeah. I am not encountering either one of those problems. I also got the Seidio Active case on mine now.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium

Mine Vol- squeeks a little. As far as the battery cover goes I don't feel as though it's too loose. It requires an acceptable amount of force to slide it off, and clicks securely back in place

I lost my back cover for a day, found it in my car, I took it off my car Holder and when I took it off, it fell under the seat. I immediately went out and bought a cheap back cover.

Ditto here.

Just bend the metal tabs of the metal cover up so they are tighter against the plastic housing of the phone. I did this too and the problem is solved. Only need to bend them about 1-2 mm.

cover loose
Funny for HTC to go through the trouble of making a sturdy looking metal cover to have it function like a cheap peice of plastic. Doesn't matter how light the fall, the back come's off my raider. It appears if you tweak the side tabs on the cover you'll get a tighter fit, don't break them though. I haven't tried that yet, however.

Remember there was some drop test for this in one of the reviews out there. When dropped heads down, the lid comes off even it's dripped 3inches.
Still like this better than Samsung plastic backs that start warping and squeaking after some taking off and snapping back.

Aaand it's broken

Yes that's right my less than 24 hour old one is broken. There is a hairline crack that runs from home button to heaphone jack. By the home button there is another small crack too.
The phone was not dopped at all and has been in otterbox commuter, and pretty bc much in my hands all day. I was holding the phone and all of the sudden it cracked. I'm really just at a loss for words and dumbfounded at how this happened.

I understand it sounds ridiculous, I ran a phone store for many years and heard stories and saw things I wish I didn't. One guy hands me his phone said it doesn't work, I asked if it got wet and he tells me that his cow ate it and then threw it back up again. We go through a lot of purell. I've never had someone tell me it just broke while holding it and trying to take a screen shot, but that's what happened.
I love the phone, it was running without hiccups all day. I don't want a different phone, but I don't want to be looking at a long road of replacements either and I think most of us can agree on that, so I had to share my experience.

I'm pretty sure it was from pressing the home button, I was having some of the issues with the home and back not working properly. If you are having those issues too I would try to get and exchange while you can, hopefully this is just a freak accident.

That's not a crack in the screen. It looks like a line of pixels went out. Who's replacing it for you? Sprint? Walk into a store and tell them this happened out of nowhere. If you're still within 14 days, they have to replace it.

It is the internal LCD that is broken, not the outer glass. Sprint is giving me a fight but they will replace it, just sucks waiting and getting the run around. The more I use the phone the worse it's getting.

From the picks it doesn't look physically broken at all, it looks like, what someone else said, like a strip of pixels died. So, that could be a bad flex cable or a screen defect. maybe the otterbox was warping the phone? was it a snug fit?

I hate to be that guy, but I'll be the second story of "my screen actually did break and I have no idea how".
I will admit, the phone did take a drop off a couch on to tile; but no screen damage was done, just a slight scuff on the landing zone. That was 2 days ago.
Yesterday i'm out with some friends, doing some gardening at his place, and I pull out my phone and there's a hairline crack from the volume buttons to the home button, I'll update with a picture when I find my camera. And now today, when i woke up, I was using my phone and noticed some stuck pixles on the middle top of the screen. I bought the phone on the third and I'm not sure if this kind of thing should be covered or not; if it's even worht calling or going into sprint?
EDIT: LINK TO ALBUM HERE
I couldn't get the pixle since they are so damn small and i don't have a macro lens for the camera.
I don't even know how it could have happend while it was in my pocket or from the fall(last picture) since it wasn't broken at all that day.
I reveretd to stock rom without SU but we cannot removed the tamper markings if i contact sprint what do i do about that?

I am going to agree and say that is a pixel issue. Glass does not crack like that or a LCD screen unless it is intentionally scored.

Honestly as I tech I'd prefer you not remove it... without it, it makes it alot harder for us to verify that its the correct device. Actually it would be impossible to verify the device aside from them ICCID on the sim. May cause trouble if you have TEP so I'd personally refrain from removing it.

Going into the settings to retrieve it is not hard and far from impossible.
The sticker will eventually fall off and the ink begins to wear anyway.

Ah yes, in that case it would prove helpful. With that said, I would still recommend taking the sticker off and keeping it in a safe place as the ink does wear, etc.

That information is also included with the box... unless you purchase your phone used or already open that information thats on the box should match the one from the phone.

I removed mine and stuck it inside the box. I kept my receipt inside as well. Should be safe in there just in case you will ever need it.

My main concern was just if the phone is totally fckd and won't power on, screen burnt out, cant charge, etc, there is no way to confirm that device is the device on your account if you remove the sticker. If we send back the wrong ESN to Sprint, they'll charge anywhere from $180-350 against our tech centers profit so obviously being able to confirm that it is the actual device on the account is an important thing to me. Now based of what everyone is saying about it rubbing off, I think when I get mine I'll personally just remove the sticker and put it on my box so I don't loose it, that way if I ever have to exchange it I can just stick it back on and have 0 worries.

Get it replaced. Seems like an issue with the magic eye of the lens. It's probably damaged or a dirt got inside your phone and made it's way to the eye.
Or could you try to lightly tap the phone in your palm? It might get off the eye also but of course it's still there inside so kinda annoying.
