With some sort of scratch-proof magic coating. Maybe we should just ask specifically for a titanium cover.

I'd like a backcover with a proper clear class for the camera, so the pictures won't come out all hazy and greyish as they do now..
As for colors:

Anyone know where we can purchase an original black/brown one? I dropped my phone on the pavement and now it has a nice scratch on the corner...I had literally just put it in a leatherette case not 10 minutes before so I guess I was lucky....

I removed almost all of it and applied duct tape in the interior so that the camera wouldn't be filled with dust...
Still couldn't find a original replacement cover...

Just mask the middle up give it a light sand and paint any colour you want, just put plenty laqure on so it doesn't scratch easy.
Then custom colour it any way you want

My local LG just drop me a voice mail during holiday, it will cost US$11 for a replacement which I can pick up from LG service centre.

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!

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.

The way the crack is so hairline and straight it does seem believable some freak pressure point could have caused this. I have a good feeling we won't be seeing any more of these stories though =P

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.

this is what I was going to say... I wonder if the case put some kind of pressure on the phone that damaged it or messed with the ribbon cable? or just bad QC

Just got my One back from repair.

So I just got my phone back from repair for a broken screen. The repair totaled 189.99. I was however quite surprised that they seemed to replace the entire outer body of the phone. The back was scratched and the speaker bezels had a few nicks in them. All was replaced and my phone now actually has the magical zero gap shiz they talk about. I know its still my phone cause the serial is the same and it came back with ViperRom still on it. Just wanted to share my experience.

Just wonder if they put a new shell on it because they messed it up taking the old one off? Good deal though, you got your screen fixed and new shell.

ive been lucky, dropped mine a few times and its still good, case is pretty beat up but rather it be beat up than the phone.

actually no not at all.. dropped this guy many many times and have a couple chips in the metal but the screen is fine. Even the other day im running on a tredmill and flap my headphone wire with my arms as im running.. it fell on the belt i kicked it and it still was fine.
hahah

I have a Otterbox Commuter on mine, and it has seen the concrete floor at work several times without consequence. Invest in a better case.

I spilled bong water on mines and my girl scratched it a little with my keys over top speaker other than that no drop damage and trust it's seen it's fair share. #TOUGH

Yea even a thin case around the phone will prevent this from happening - it will absorb a lot of impact since its a compressible material...
basically w/o a case if u drop it on the front corners it will likely crack the screen
This is because the impact is abosorbed by the metal- which will not compress, it will just push all the force down to the glass screen and crack it.. if they just had a little bit of rubber or plastic between the metal and the glass it would alleviate the impact enough so that the screen wont crack as easily.

I power slammed my phone and the screen broke. HTC makes crappy phones. I'm buying a iPhone
