Probably you have 2 options:
1. Buy a separate back cover (there is a forum with links)
2. Buy a defective tab s maybe one with cracked screen ( you will spend more money but you will have a spare battery, other internal parts to sell or keep
Maybe is not a bad ideea to go to samsung service and ask for that plastic piece. Maybe they have a defective tab and could replace for a small fee...
Anyway, good luck

Me me me me me me me! Do you have any Samsung covers/cases BTW? If not then I don't want the tab (don't like the smell of battery acid

I'm sorry for that, but how did it happened?

and what is end of story?

Just tape over it.

I can't tell if everyone is being serious in this thread. That's a mirco usb port on the Tab S 10.5.

Oh ROFL I didn't look at the photo. You are right that's the freaking micro USB port and not the IR emitter, which is at the top of the tablet.

Did you find one of these? I took my tab apart to fix it and lost this part... doh!

my IR cover went missing also after repairs
I sent mine in for repairs and it came back without the IR cover also! so frustrating, because i didn't notice for several weeks ( i never use it) and they'll deny they're the one that lost it.
I'd love to know a SERIOUS answer on how to replace and/or cover it.

I am also in need of one of these. Anyone taken the risk on a ebay back cover?

Rugged case for the XDA

Hi all,
just wondering if anyone has come across a protective case for the XDA. The sort of thing I want is rubber not leather............
any ideas
Thanks
I saw some in an outdoor shop and will probably get myself one as soon as I can find the time to go there again.
They were meant to be used for digital cameras or portable audio players I think. They were at least rainproof, (one even claimed to be submergible!) I think they would provide the shelter required for carrying the device around in everyday use. The only problem is that you'll have to get the XDA out of the case to actually use it.
Martin
Thanks
Hi Martin, thanks for the reply.
I have found a case similar to what you have described at www.ruggedpeak.com. they seam a little expensive bur probably cheaper than a new XDA !!
XDA Hard Case
O2 sell a hard case for the XDA - It's a metal case lined with foam, that clips over the XDA and makes it pretty much shock proof - I have one, and it's GREAT!

Hi people Ive found a cheap and very strong case for our device.
See this link here http://www.outdoortrends.de/index.html?d_DE_39622_700_Deuter_Handytasche_Phone_Case_M6646.htm
Ive used the s model(antanna hanging out) for 1 year but its a tight fit thus heavy pulling of the zip every time to close it and it has survived a year of this treatment and still not a tear and only some paint came off the zipper.
They now have the M model which fits the Xda perfectly totally enclosing it. It offers no protection but the thing I like about this case is I can wear it horizontally on my belt with the screen facing inward and thats very comfortable.
If you see it in an outdoor store give it a try its cheap enought
Hey guys...i bought a similar case on ebay... Similar to This. The concept was great, it is lined with a nice padded feltish. materal but the closing latch did a huge number on my phone. Luckily (Ironicly) my screen $hit the bed, and T-Mo is replacing the phone for me.. My words of advice, find out what their return policy is on the merchandise and if you don't like it see if you could exchange it for something different. I didn't do that and I am stuck with my case
I would be willing to sell it for $25 (buyer pays shipping) to someone that deoesn't have paint on their XDA. I didn't like it because I like my stuff always looking new. anyone interested PM me.
is that the case which doesnt have button holes and covers the whole phone with the airel sticking out the hole at the top.
i had one of these on my 1st xda and ti made a horrible mark near my ariel and the catch scuffed up all the side and it kept popping open and all.
the PROPORTA one is a hell of a lot better that kept my 64mb XDA mint as and still looks mint today not a scrach on it just fingerprtints all over the screen and sides lol.
get the proporta one much better then that other metal case.
gaz
I totaly agree the Proporta case is a little gem they on eBay I expect thats where I picked mine up from

Broken Cover

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!!!
(sorry for the ot)

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...

Magic 32A Housing problem

I Got a white housing off ebay for my girlfriend 32A.
Here's the issue. I can't put the screws back on the new case, the threaded sleeves are not present and I doesn't look like I can remove them from the old housing.
Anyone else had this issue, any solutions, other then hot glue haha ?

You can take them out, but it's unbeleivably difficult. I would just buy from this site: http://cnn.cn/shop/tmobile-white-housing-p-6164.html
Although it's more expensive, it'll save you the hassle. There are also housings which have those golden rings there but your screws won't fit it lol. i've gone through this haha
How can you remove them ? Pull out ? or you have to break the plastic around it and then it won't fit in the holes ?
same problem here took apart my mytouch. and now stuck. I am going to melt the old housing and attempt to pop the screwholes (gold threads) out of the older housing. and pop them in. if not i guess gorilla glue -_-
well ive heard some ppl lighting the end of something like I dunno, a nail and somehow pull it out. (I dont know at all to be honest) I've tried, and it sticks RIDICULOUSLY HARD. From my experience, I would suggest you not bother with it and get a refund or something, or complain and say it doesnt have enough w/e for u to put it on
lol solder the housing together?

Anyone who has the same problem, can try to buy the tool like the attached picture. The tool is called soldering iron for your solution partner.

you do know if your faceplate locks in to the middle portion, you can just leave it like that. unfortunately My Mytouch (32b) does not have any screws on it. doesnt affect functionality. fortunately the faceplate (32b) fits the stock middle portion. its tight, but locks in accurately with out having to use screws. also the adhesive left behind by the stock faceplate was strong enough to glue in the new faceplate. I got lucky. I tried prying off the new faceplate after installation (in an attempt to fix my previously damaged vibration motor and the LED) it wouldnt budge so I left it alone. your best bet is to use adhesive (glue) and make sure it does not dry, or drip into any circuits or the screen itself. dont use glue if the faceplate snugs in tight, just put a plastic shield/case over it so even if you accidentally drop it, the faceplate wont come off. good luck.
Thanks for the advice but I want it OEM style (with screws) or it will just stay black original housing.
Not having the screws makes the phone look a bit loose and bleh. Also, if they dont include the gold rings or w/e on your faceplate, they probaly didn't include anything else which would mean your LED won't show in the front and the speakerhole /earpiece or w/e its caled i forget! Will look weird. I suggest you try the one I showed you or like you said, stick with the original housing. That's probably the best!
maybe you bought a 32b housing personally mines fine, and i fixed my led lol. forgot to put the clear plastic. anyway my phone is ok w out screws. just have to be careful not to drop it on a hard surface.

The led stuff and speaker hole thing it's all good, you can easily remove it from the original housing, i'm waiting on the seller to see what he has to say. I guess i'll just take my money back and leave as it is.

Anyone? Aluminum Alloy Blade Metal Frame Bumper Case

Anyone used this bumper?
The back cover is easily replaceable so I don't mind showing off the titanium texture on Note 2. A bumper fits this need. So anyone used this? It shows 20 sold, so hopefully at least someone is browsing xda.
Share your opinions :]
BTW, there's different codes of N7100 and the prices are different, e.g., BK, PK, TP, etc. What does that mean?
EDIT: UH.. nvm, seem to be color codes. BUT, same model, different prices ($20+ vs $10)????
EDIT: UH... nvm again, one is free shipping, one is $10 shipping. :facepalm:
EDIT: AND one is bid while the other is BIN. :double-facepalm:
WARNING: Based on further reading, this design is not acceptable. It scratches screen when installing/uninstalling, and possibly affects reception!!

I've also come across these
You can see that my main idea is to cover the sides, because I believe that it is still chrome like on the Note2 (mine hasn't arrived yet), and shows scratch more easily.
===========================================================================================================================================
Or do you guys think Galaxy Note™ II Protective Cover + from Samsung just looks better?
Only thing I'd be worried about is it interfering with the reception
-TeaM VeNuM Like A Boss
Ye, that's also my major concern. So I wanted to see if anyone tried it on xda. It comes from Hong Kong, so I really don't wanna waste time just to find it interferes with the reception :/
From this thread, looks like (hopefully) it won't interfere.
xCeejayy said:
It wouldn't suppress the signal since The Note isn't like the iPhone 4/4S where the antenna is on the sides. Our Antenna is on the bottom portion of our phone so this case does not interfere with signal.

a buddy of mine has one on his s3 and has no problems. I am going to pass this link to him because when he asked if they were available for the note 2 they said no.. but that was a few weeks ago.
Just fyi guys, i updated in my OP that these bumpers will possibly scratch the screen when sliding in/out as well as interfering with signal strengths as i read in the other thread.
Try to avoid it or try to bear the risk.
There are plastic/soft bumper emerging on eBay. Search for them.

I've had a black aluminium bumper on the titanium gray note 2 for a week, it looks badass especially with the notification led in red ahah. But it does add some bulk and removes the softness of the original design when you hold it ot shove it in your pocket, Guess that bugged me just because I used the note protection free for 2 weeks :/
No signal problem whatsoever.
Little video there, mine is the second one to prove another guy the case didn't intefere: http://www.galaxynote.fr/bumper-aluminium-t8200.html#p90815
I've ordered a second one from a different brand (with replacement buttons like in the original poster picture here instead of grip notches on the sides) in titanium gray color too I'll post a full good quality video of the case if I have some time.
Alternative Bumper
I like this one because looks like thinner on front, shows side buttons and it's nice to hold to don't falls.
Where in Chinese sites can I found?

wooww..
I had the same one as in OP (aluminum frame) from eBay awhile ago, and it didn't fit the phone
Looks like a Triobump Clone.
The aluminum won't scratch the screen.

back glass replacement

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:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lots-OEM...-For-Huawei-P20-P20-Lite-P20-Pro/113025697876
And from the same place, a glass back:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhfzXeLu55k
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

Mine just arrived today. Very good quality, the look and feel is the no less than origin.

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.
