It doesn't, which is why I asked for a separate order.

I actually just started re housing my xperia play in white, got a new full housing, a new digitizer.

What are you doing for the glue on the digitizer?
Sent from my R800x using XDA

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.

Thanks. I'm looking for a white housing for conversion.
Sent from my R800x using XDA

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!

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!

Self screen replacement

I just dropped my phone. Smashed the screen. I'm wondering how many people have attempted to get the screen fixed for how much. Or if I should do it myself.
Such a bummer. Still owe 200$ on it to.

either use insurance or contact htc for repairs. i hear htc is actually pretty cool about it and doesn't charge a whole lot

I replaced my digitizer screen. It wasn't that complicated but it does take time.

I recommend parts4repair.com they sell parts for all brands of smart/superphones out there right now. I broke the screen on my Incredible S, well the digitizer. Got a new one for $20 CAD. replaced it myself (did take a month to ship) and was good to go. Parts were great,got a little tool kit with all the wee torx bits. Check it out!

Ii already voided warranty with s-off
There's a guy in my city that will replace digitizer for 90 can or 130 if LCD is cracked also.
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

He says it will take 1-3 business days. I assume cuz he has to get the part
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

I work at a repairshop and I have done several digitizer replacements on the VIVID, its a little tricky since you will have to lift up the upper part of the LCD, or remove the LCD entirely. Doing so increases the chance of you breaking the LCD and then you will have to replace both screens. If you dont have a good heat gun and the right tools, you should take it to someone with experience.

I watched a tear down. While a probably could do it. I think your right. I'll just pay to get it fixed.

HTC quoted me.140.cc for a screen replacement

Yeah Nevermind, screens from the source are expensive. I'm used to seeing small charges from the usb ports dying out of warranty not screen repair

Verizon Housing

Does anyone have a link for replacement housing for the VZW Note 2? My housing creaks on the side and back and I would like to replace it.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium

Subscribed. I would be interested in this as well.

Won't any note 2 housing work? Be careful when taking it apart. I would just buy the back cover first and see if it fixes the creaking before taking it apart.
Sent from my SCH-I605

I have removed the battery cover and it still creaks. I thought there was a difference between the housings but I could be mistaken.

The battery cover is part of the whole thing. Removing it won't make a difference. If you keep it in its more rigid and less likely to creak.

I would go with an att housing so you can take advantage of wireless charging.
iirc that housing has the cut outs for that feature whereas the vzw housing does not.
as for doing the swap, explore YT on how to vids.

Be careful when ordering your new housing. As this guy found out the hard way they are different depending on carrier.

Seems like something is inside my phone

Took a picture earlier and I noticed there is something odd looking towards the top part of any pictures I take. Even shows up when I have the camera up.
Time for warranty I suppose.

Crack in the lens cover?
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta

its the gods!

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.

Replacing the one's battery plate?

Anyone know of its possible to replace the back plate of our phones? Or even replace the whole metal part to a diff color or just replace a beat up one? Tired searching but nothing comes up...

Look at iFixit teardown.
It's almost impossible to disassemble that phone without damaging it.

You can acctually get all the tools needed for a tear down. The only thing is they are not specific for the HTC one. For instance it uses an Iopener tool for the Iphone/Ipad to get in to the device. But I wouldn't advice trying it if you don't have some kind of repair expieriance as HTC's are notoriusly difficult to get back together
Check this teardown out which has the list of tools you need. And you should be able to get it replaced without the 'Special HTC Tool' that everyone is talking about
But then again I really wouldnt advice doing it. But thats just my opinion, and I have 2 years of level 3 repair work
