Anyone know where I can purchase one?

I would try to e-mail HTC support.
Let's see how good their support really is. The manual is not very clear about how to remove the cover. Some picture to show how will be a great help for many of their customers.
If their support is good they will send you a new one for free.
HTC Support
Thanks! I'll contact HTC tomorrow.
Yes, it's very difficult to remove the battery cover and there is literally no instructions of how to do so.
Also, I really dislike the glossy finish. In fact I dislike it so much that I'm very tempted to go back to my Prophet.

HTC´s international support in England might be the only ones able to help, not sure if HTC America offers the Trinity already...

Can anyone lead me to where to find a spare enclosure (not an external case).
The one that holds the whole thing together. Ok I need some help here to find the right term
My Athena fallen and I now got a bent Athena. An art piece I'm sure, but rather have it back to its shape, you know?!
So does anyone know where to find spares?
why dont you take a picture so we could see what exactly you need
Will need to find a mirror as it is the only camera I have
Anyhow I just find what it is. Is the SHELL. The black aluminum shell.
Is anywhere to be found it as a spare?
Thank you

Thank you.
I ordered the spare casing. Will post how it goes....
Sorted!!
I have received the casing, followed instructions and I now have a bright new Athena
The only bad thing is that the camera button and the volume sliders are missing from the replacing casing. and the camera button is a nightmare to take it over from the old one.
If anyone needs assistance with replacing the casing, just PM and I'll do my best to help.
So which did you get in the end, the brando one?
I'm contemplating doing mine at some point, it's pretty scarred.
I did go for the brando and it took about a week to receive it in Scotland.
The instructions are quite easy to follow, but the tools are a must, specially the flat tool to push the parts open. I got mine here when I repaired my powerMAC a few weeks ago.
does someone know where to get a new digitizer? my one is broken (the LCD itself is still fine) and I ordered this one. But they refunded me my money and said they are out of stock
Any suggestions?
Try the brando website.
It looks like they have a lot of spare parts...
If you can't find it, try to contact them, I got a few parts not listed this way.
Good luck

You can try here
http://www.gpsmidlands.co.uk/index.php?category=Pda Digitisers
but this is £90 of her majesty money
the one in your ebay link for £19 is unbelievable, are they for real?
Regards
they said they are out of stock but they promised to contact me if they get some "digitizer-only"
currently they only have full LCD screens for £150
as far as I can see the dealer seems to be realiable...
LOL
my experience with them is not good..
i need to change
- battery cover ( faded )
- casing ( cracks )
My camera button is crazy
Keyboard is wierd
sigh
Best of luck mate....tell me when that keyboard gets better because mine is fcked too
My spacebar is quite unresponsive, have two cracks, and my slider is wobbly as well

Wobbly is standard and I am used to it. But the rest are unacceptable.
dadeadman, I am also Singaporean. Wanna go Service Centre or Small Claims Trbunal together? The SE support most likely won't give us much help. ALso, even if they did, the problems will come back again. I am really not fond of this crap.

So? HTC was making the phone for SE. Anyone else think that HTC was trying to mess with Sony Ericsson? All the delays even though a prototype was available very early on? And now after the phone is launched, so many problems.
Nah, the above is just pure speculation.

Soon countries have better service, such as those in Europeran countries I believe.

Small Claims Tribunal!? That's a little exaggerated, right? Doubt you're gonna get anything out of this. Ain't exactly illogical of them to be claiming any exterior physical defects to be due to wear & tear. After all, not everyone who bought the phone has gone back to them to complain. We're probably just the unlucky ones (my X1's more or less ok except for the wobbly slider and paint chips on the battery cover).
As for better service in other countries, well, think it all depends. After all, the service centre here is outsourced.
ipporek, got yours fixed?

Went to the service centre (both Wisma and Junction 8) a couple of times with regards to the wobbliness and always got the same answer that it is normal. As for battery cover, got it replaced once cos of a 'hump' in the middle when I first got it, but even with the new cover, I'm still getting the paint peel. Am considering buying an extra battery cover.
what? they gave u a new one and it peels again???????
does anyone know where I can get the Original Cover that came with the phone. You know the grey matte with the android Logo on the back?
thanks I hope people here will answer since in the "other" tattoo forum they never answer my questions.
What cover have you got on yours then? I had the grey one with my tattoo new and its not the best - the blue cover that came with the uk orange version is much nicer

Maybe you could call HTC Support and see if they can supply one?
ill try that
I think original HTC Tattoo cover is a bit a slippery and can usually fall off from your hands. Does anyone happened that? My old HTC Touch had a better grip surface.
I was wondering wether custom covers are mate or glossy
ive got two custom covers an they are both glossy!
Ive had a search but can find no original covers on sale anywhere - not even ebay
Can someone tell me whether or not this is OEM housing for the x10? i know it say OEM on it.. but you know.. lots of these china/hk seller claims it's OEM but it's really not ~ some stupid b**** ran into me today and sent my phone flying ~~ dented in the corner luckily my screen is not scratched ~ and it happened 2 days before my case arrives T_T
http://cgi.ebay.ca/OEM-Full-Housing...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item439ebeee70
It looks legit but mostly they are not real oem. If u need a replacement housing I would give it a try.
Well the name is spelled wrong in the listing. I mean if they cant get the spelling of the name right then I don't know lol..Small minor thing but hey everybody else can spell sony ericsson right why cant they lol
It looks good to me.. can't see any flaws....
(regarding the "Ericssion" spelling.. The i is next to the o on your keyboard.. so probably just sausage fingers!).
oh well i took the plunge and paid for it ~ i can't stand my phone flawed 50bux ~ blah
Q: Is this official OEM housing from Sony Ericsson? 30-Apr-10
A: Yes. Sony China OEM
Q: Hi dear. Im looking for the Original white housing for my white x10. This one pretty look the original but it has some differences. Like in the back and front doesn't have XPERIA tittle. If later you found the original one please let me know. Thank you 27-Apr-10
A: Hi, This is a OEM housing. And very cloesd to original. But the XPERIA need to stick on back cover. I could offer. Thanks

ya i saw that too.. well the phone is made in china after all so him saying SE china oem doesn't surprise me too much. the part i didn't understand was it say missing Sony Ericsson Xperia working i don't see it. coz if he's talking about the one on the screen.. then i think it comes with the digitizer not the case. i'll let you guys know when i get it and see whether it's oem or knockoff

Tell ya one thing for free!! The thought of changing the housing is one thing but removing the glass touch screen from it's original housing will take some very careful disassembly. It's very thin.. it's glass and it's stuck down with glue or strong tape. Flex it a little and you might be hunting for more than just the housing.
Dont Buy it.
Hey mate sorry to hear about your phone. When things look too good to be true it normally is. Its way too soon to have real housings for sale like this. Experience tells me that you will probably pay your money and never receive anything.
Just put ur x10 in your new protective case and try not to think of the damage underneath.

Looking at the sellers feedback you'll receive the case. However only time will tell if it is a real OEM one. I'm looking for a white case too (actually only the back part of the case) as I'm quite sure the glossy white housing will scratch pretty bad (looking at all those white iPhones out there).
Just wondering if you guys know how I could go about getting a replacement battery cover for the focus?
Got a nasty scratch on the back so I need to get a new one.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Contact Samsung directly.

Already tried that, they said they "arent available yet" which makes absolutely no sense because obviously the part exists.
It just means that all parts are going into the assembly process.
Spare parts should start hitting the market in the next month or so.
