Hey guys! So i completely understand how to completely disassemble this phone due to how easy it is (it only takes ten minutes!). But i was wondering do you guys think it would be worth being out of a phone for like a day (while paint drys, etc.) if i painted the whole thing and got rid of some scratches? Im seriously contemplating doing it but i just wanted your guys opinions and also any ideas on what colors i should use . Thanks!
that could be very bad for one no more warranty and two the paint could flake off and damage the hardware inside i would just skin it if u want to change the color that bad.
Thanks.
Thanks mate. My warranty is actually long gone and i will be getting a new phone shortly. The reason i assumed this would work because i saw a guy do it on the evo in the portal. It was actually a top post for the day. Id think about skinning it but for some reason the difficulty of the project is intriguing me. But i will def take what you said into consideration. Thanks
thats cool just please post pics if u do it im interested to see how that would turn out.
Okay
I'd be glad to post pics but it probobaly wont be untill this weekend because i use my phone too much during the week. I was thinking a white and metallic silver look. What do ya think?
i always liked the flat black look
The htc back housing will take dye better than paint. There was some pretty easy steps way back when. Check out ppcgeeks touch diamond forums, or google it.

Hey thanks man.
Issue
Do you guys any idea how i could paint the hardware buttons to hide all the scratches mine had from when i "let" my sister "play with it. Do you thing if i just buffered it all out with a fine sandpaper or something and then paint around them that would work. Because i figured if i was going to make the whole phoen beautiful then i may as well fix this falw too. If you do not think that part is possible then i guess ill just buy new housing for like 5 bucks. But just lmk. Thanks
I like the chips and scratches on my phone -- it reminds me of Boba Fet's helmet.

Hi
I accidentally left my i9000 home and went on holidays. It was 1 week "home alone". When I got back i charged it and started using it again.
Then after a day the battery ran out again. I needed to check a contact real quick so I managed to switch it on and boot it right until i got the contact, then battery was drained.
When I got home to charge it.. DEAD phone, not even the Jig could save it.
I sent it to warranty and they refused to cover the malfunction because they detected humidity (they sent the screenshot below)
please check h__p://img263.imageshack.us/img263/1284/i9000.jpg
When i got it again i opened it and saw that i can only get the white stuff out by scraping it and that the black spot is actually (or seems like) a chunk of burnt chip
This is what i saw h__p://img171.imageshack.us/img171/4475/i90002.jpg
I never dropped it in water, or did something wrong to it. The only humidity it may have gotten was by having it in the bathroom while i showered.. But so do my other phones!
Do you guys think it's really humidity or do I have a fighting chance?
Thanks for your input, and sorry for the pics, i can't post outside links yet, please replace h__p with http
Bump!
I appreciate any help guys >,< i want to send if back to warranty with a claim, if it really isn't humidity
Thanks
Get them to prove it is humidity, much cheaper for them to replace, consumer rights, use whats out there, threaten them, harass them dont let them win, its that simple!
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
bump
can not help u
That white stuff does NOT look like humidity. It looks more like :
A: thermal paste and overheated chip
B: superglue spill (but being inside the case, this theory must be dropped).
I would say you should insist to fix it on warranty.
Thanks guys, i'll try to harass them. It really doesn't seem humidity. What it seems is that they're taking advantage of me!
The phone here costs 329€ and they're asking 220€ no fix it
You should ask them to prove it to you that the white stuff is humidity. From what I know, they have to prove you're guilty, not the other way around (where you should prove you're innocent).
Btw, does the i9000 have a humidity detector sticker or some other tech?
I went on holidays and when i came back i opened the phone again and all that white stuff.. just vanished!
If it was humidity, as in limestone residues, it wouldn't vanish!
What the hell was that!?
Anyways, regarding the humidity detector, i saw in one forum one guy with a small WHITE square inside the battery cover.
In the service manual the same square is BLACK and mine is also BLACK
Is this one? And what does white and black mean?
Thanks again

I have no idea what the square is for (mines also black)
But i think you have a fighting chance of winning this, Like said before, they must prove your guilty in order to refuse you warranty.
If you contact them demanding it to be fixed as your are 100% sure the phone has never seen water. Then someone's gotta' give and its gotta be them..
just bullsh!t them saying your seeking legal advice regarding this, and say "do i look stupid enough to leave a $400 phone near water ?? "
if they say yes, you must seek revenge
Hey guys, first post here we go,
I have a HTC HD7 and the phone became slightly damaged after I dropped it one day. Of course, it was the day i took off the case to clean it. Regardless, now the battery only works when I put a slip of paper behind it. Well now that stopped working and it is becoming a challenge to keep the case on the phone.
My question is... Is there any easy fix or should I send it in to get it repaired? Also, is it even worth sending it to HTC repairs? I have heard not so great things about them.
Thanks in advance guys
Photos please, because the HD7 battery fits perfectly without "paper's help", does the telephone's back cover a damage? is it broken? are those battery contacts straight, not bent down?
Hi everyone,
Today I dropped my precious One it fell from about 2meters on stone ground, which surprisingly only damaged the chamfered edge a little. But still as I love this phone and really can't get over the fact that I damaged it I was wondering if I can repair it myself or get it repaired by HTC, if the costs are lower than 100 I'm willing to pay the price.
I would really like to know if this is possible,
Thanks in advance
to be frank i dont think you will be able to repair those chamfered edges. you would have to get a complete new housing. which will cost more then 100 from htc.
you might be able to sand it if youre very careful

Yeah, I just called them, they told me that they don't know what the exact repairing costs are but they will be higher than €100 for sure
I'm so sad right now as I can't afford to pay so much and I really want it to be repaired at least a little bit so it's not that visible anymore
The sanding idea seems way too risky to me, what if I scratch and damage my phone even more?
heey guys i had an accident recently on my moped (i'm glad im still alive) but now my phone's aluminium casing (from the phone itself) is bent and now i am concernd about the waterproof function since it is a big gap
the whole right corner is a few mm lower than normal because i hit a curb
im from holland overijssel does anybody know how to fix this or where to send my phone to?
That's a damage from high! ..lol.. and Yes, I will be worried about waterproofness, not for the frame but for the flap. I will absolutely do not put your phone under water.
