Came across this looking for a camera for someone on here.. http://www.globaldirectparts.com/HTC-Droid-Incredible-Replace-Repair-Parts-s/6283.htm
On another note.. I found the front camera for the EVO(see pic). Now that would be a helluva mod for the DInc.. if there is a slot to plug that thing in and someone willing to drill a hole in their screen.
How about a digitizer with the HTC Logo rather than the Verizon one? (Also, see pic.. I'm starting to love this site.
Now if I could only get a digitizer with the Sprint logo for my Dinc.

Attention Customers, This is not compatable with the Verizon HTC Droid Incredible

I wonder why it isn't compatible...?
I would imagine its because Verizon doesnt endorse removing their name from your phone.. I cant see that there would be a difference in operation.

This isn't Verizon selling the parts? There must be some different between the two, or they probably wouldn't post the disclaimer.
The verizon one doesn't say you can't use with the htc branded phone. In fact the verizon one states that there is one also available without the verizon brand. I bet verizon complained so they added that to maker them happy

So does anybody wanna split some parts? This site really stinks that they require x units per order. I wish they would just raise the price per unit a bit to cover overhead.
I'm interested in a HTC digitizer and some rear speakers (mines blown!)
I need a new camera bezel, mines dented and then I pealed it off and now the double sided tape hardly sticks. I wish i would have just left it alone.
Digitizer
If you look at the connectors for the digitizers you will notice that they are different. That is why the HTC branded one won't work with the Verizon branded phones.

Hello Guys,
I'm a little stuck, I had a glass of water that spilt over my phone and it's damaged the SLCD screen.
I'm after a new screen and will fit it myself as HTC will not fit a new one at a charge as it's not a part of thier policy. I've searched around for phone repair but don't trust sending my phone off.
I've searched around for screens and where i've come stuck is that I thought that the HD7 has a SLCD screen? I've only come across LCD screens. See link below of one I may purchase if correct? Edit well turns out I can't post links.
Can any correct me if I'm wrong? I don't want to buy a cheap screen and waste my money.
Hi,
The only HD7's on the market at this time that actually have an SLCD screen are those sold by AT&T and are listed as the "HD7S". All other HD7's have a standard LCD display.
If you bought yours from AT&T then you have an SLCD, if not then its just a standard LCD.
Hope that helps...

I wonder if the s screen would work on a hd7???? A brighter screen sure would be nice.

This is my question too. I hope so cause from what I understand, everything else about the 2 phones is the same.

if iam not mistaked the HD7 from bell also carries an SLCD and is essentially a unbranded HD7S. Bells website clearly promotes the phones SLCD on their site. Correct me if iam wrong please.
**Ive also compared my HD7 from bell to t-mobiles and there is a difference in the quality, more so in the viewing angles and color depth.**
Hello all.
I've been around the forums for awhile (just used the search functions for my previous issues) but seem to have no luck with this one. Well, anyway.. A few days ago I dropped my Vivid from about 2 feet and yeaaah it's absolutely shattered all the way. What are my options? I'm tech saavy so I think I could replace it; however, with the phone being so new I can't seem to find a disassemble tutorial for it. Ive found the screens on a website and on eBay but they seem to say HTC on the top instead of AT&T (because I would reeeeally like to return this and get the skyrocket) so... Does anyone know of a disassembly guide for it? Orrrr... Can I get HTC to repair it?
Also, I found someone local that said he would do it for $120.. But I'd have to pay him upfront since the screen is so pricey.. But that just seems very odd to me since he's working out of his house... Hmm

There is for the digitizer glass. dunno where to get a new LCD though.. Sorry dude.
Isn't that all I need though? The phone works fine.. The glass is just shattered
well there ya go.. if the LCD is not damaged that is all you need..
Okay, cool. Do you know of any online tutorial to install it? Im pretty sure I can do it but I don't want to totally screw it up lol

It's not the vivid but should provide some insight.
Yeah, I was googling and youtubing vids but I didn't know which other HTC would be similar design to the vivid, well, besides the raider.
You could get insurance from your phone from AT&T (as long as it's within 30 days of when you bought it). I decided to get insurance for my Vivid, and they didn't even ask to look at my phone. So add the insurance to your plan, then put in a claim a little bit later (prolly not immediately after).
I already tried that route. It's a $199 deductible on the vivid... Which is absolutely ridiculous.
Could pay the deductible but tell them you lost the phone. Yeah the IMEI will be blacklisted but you will have a test device for root and S-OFF. Also you can sell the removable parts from it too or keep them for spare.
This one fell about three feet onto the corner with the search button not even a week after receiving...

^EXACTLY what mine looks like what are you going to do about it
..I actually found a HTC raider tear down on YouTube; however, the little "void" circle by the battery is a screw so I reaaaally don't want to void my warranty. So, I'll probably just pay the $199
I called for replacement told em it was lost payed 200 wanting to find a Dec. That would be interested hacking that doesn't have the vivid yet but not sure how to go about it..

I just cracked mine also. Obviously no gorilla glass!! I have insurance and called to get it replaced, the deductible was $199 which is higher than you can buy the phone for. I called back into 611 and raised Hel_ with the AT&T Rep because the insurance company is apparently a third party. Dropped the insurance, it is not worth it and she will send me a new phone for $50 after I stated I would go to Verizon for an Apple! Now I can get the glass replaced and Gazelle will give me $300 for the repaired phone!
Ha! my vivid got ran over by a Thunderbird on Christmas eve...and lived to tell the tail! Lol I was super surprised to see only one lil nick from a rock that made it through the zagg screen gaurd..and the screen now has a unique blue "ghost cloud" in the top left corner of the screen the screen also has a few tiny chips in the bottom left corner and along the sides but u can't see them under the case I have which also saved the phone from being crushed! O and it was laying screen up if that matters at all.

My 2 Cents
IMHO this may be one instance where thr HTC phones being built with more solid materials actually works against us, the phone being much heavier hits with greater force and possibly is more prone to damage.. I may be wrong but it's my opionion (I always get a decent case to provide at least basic impact protection) I like the Platinum cases sold at BestBuy (good belt clip & protection once you learn the trick of unlatching the case parts)
Best of Luck, sorry this really does not help you after the fact.
Cheers

This is one of the sites that sells digitizers & the SLCD
http://www.repairsuniverse.com/htc-vivid-screen-replacements-repair-parts.html
Some other sites sell Digitizers and LCD's for the vivid, but to be quite honestly the process is very simple to fix. The only minus is that you'll spend anywhere between $100 to $120 to get it fixed out of pocket...or pay that $199 deductible and realize that carrier insurance is borked.
Hi,
I purchased a HTC one back in May which is the one of the left. I had some problems with the usb cable
not staying so Rogers sent me a replacement device. The 2nd replacement had a Yellow tint so then Rogers
sent me a third device with the same tinting.
I prefer the more bluer tint however which is the one that is defective? The Blueish or the Yellowish?
I have searched the web and have found little information, mostly on other HTC Devices.
Any input would be greatly appreciated
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39461598
Same with me (also with Rogers), and got 3 phones with 3 different colour temperatures. However, the other factors (build quality) is more important to me. When you get used to it, you probably cannot tell which colour temperatures you have.
Well I think it has to do with both phones that were sent me were Refurbished and my original one was to be
covered by their product protection plan (Asurance) however Rogers made an error and setup the wrong line on my
account so I could not put through a valid claim. So with the two phones that have been sent to me I have been
looking over them with a fine tooth comb.

Why did Rogers send you refurbished phone? How do you know they were refurbished?

The boxes that were sent to me were in Rogers "Red" boxes along with a disclaimer that they were refurbished devices.
They had to send me devices as they made an error with their "premium" device protection plan and I had a claim and the
3rd party insurance company would not honour based on Rogers error. The first device they sent me had to go back because
of the screen tint and that there was a large scratch on the back side of the device.
same issue, I've bought a black international unlocked HTC ONE from amazon.uk around 3 months ago, today I received a new HTC ONE (because the old one have a low charging issue).
I see on new HTC ONE display a strong yellow tint .... so the difference between two screens is big! .. see the image below:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/548546/IMG_0028.JPG
so is possible that I must have to wait only for the adhesive to dry? I do not remember that with my first HTC I had this problem...
How can I try to fix? how can I check what brand of display was on the two HTC?
Had this happen also with AT&T personally prefer the cold/blueish tint. Just my personal preference. Couldnt stand the Yellow whites

I was wondering if it was possible to take a silver Verizon HTC One and change the body to black. I was thinking if I found a way to purchase the body/case of a black HTC One, took the silver body/casing off and changed it for the black body, I might be able to have a Black HTC One on Verizon.
Does anyone know if this idea would work? From what I understand Verizon is not going to offer a Black HTC One when the Verizon store opens in a few hours. This would mean I need a black body/case from a phone on another carrier, I am assuming that the dimensions of the Verizon/AT&T/Sprint/T-Mobile HTC One's are all the same.

Good luck with that bro. You're gonna need it.
While its possible, you are seriously recommended not to tamper with the phone. Many people around here have destroyed their phones.
On the flipside, a few have reported it to be not that hard. I dunno.
There's some debate on hardware differences between devices from the various carriers (T-Mobile's has 1700MHz band, which the others lack and no one has been able to figure out how to activate it on non-TMO phones) but nothing that would affect the frame.
You can actually buy the housing fairly cheaply on eBay. Front and back housing runs about $40. Your main problem is going to be getting the phone open. HTC went out of their way to make it as difficult as possible to get into. There are no screws, the phone is held together by a very strong adhesive and some clips that aren't accessible from the outside. Opening it will also void your warranty.
This video will give you an idea of the level of work involved:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyrxa23OwME
You can also take a look at the IFIXIT article. Google it for "HTC ONE IFIXIT TEARDOWN". I've tried to post the link, but i wasn't allowed to do that (10 posts limit)
You will need lucky and BALLS
edit: nevermind, didn't read closely enough.
So I just got my HTC One for Verizon and I want to swap the back cover to a different color which part do I use are they all the same part for all variants?
Its really hard/near impossible to remove the back without damaging it. I'm not too sure about putting a new one on and if that might damage it.
AFAIK HTC are the only ones who can remove the back/casing without damaging the phone. - you would be better off just buying a case or fitted decals for the actual shell.
r u crazy
Please dont try to remove back cover! You will damage! Paint it or something else!
I have successfully removed the back cover before with extreme heat lots of patience and time plus mine is already a little messed up
