I have a Droid Incredible Pre-release battery door and want to sell it. I've only used it once and got a few months after the release. This is extremely rare and I rather not sell it but i need the cash. It has the the cool android dude on it and says HTC Incredible. It also comes with the inner cover that you can replace to get red accented power and volume buttons.It is in great condition. Price is negotiable. I haven't seen anyone else ever sell one of these so I know its extremely rare and I don't have another one. If anyone may like to buy this please PM me with an offer. I have had this in my display case above my desk but I need to sell it now. I remember some people on the XDA wanted it so Im posting it here. XD
This auction has been moved to ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/HTC-Droid-Incre...Accessories&hash=item41545a22bd#ht_500wt_1156
That, sir, looks amazing.

I think its really cool. It was the original battery door to the Incredible, but before it was released they changed it to the the cheaper black rubber door.
$20. LMK. pay pal ready.
Will help pay for something better than a web cam.
I'll offer $30 USD.
very sexy, not good for me since i use a case but i have a question,
what is the process of replacing the inner cover?

To Replace the inner cover, you have to unscrew the screws and carefully pry off the undercover. This will void your warranty but it will also allow you to have red accented buttons XD.
Id totally enter this auction if I didn't feel like I've already spent a fortune in accessories and batteries and whatnot.
Tis a damn sexy case though, that's for certain. Dunno if id be willing to void my warranty to get the red accents, however.

I've seen this somewhere before. But I don't think it works on the actually live unit, maybe on a dummy.
I want one of those but 110.00? What do they usually go for?

Point is they usually don't go for anything, because nobody sells them.
I researched and found out that this battery door was on some dummy units. It's not actually a "pre-release" door.
I even found them on eBay for $23.

Sorry OP. I don't know who told you this was a pre-release item.
^Nice. I wish I would have seen that a couple of weeks ago before I bought my red one from Verizon.

youre kinda right but these are dummy phones you found on ebay, means the back door is glued/screwed on and not interchangeable...so even if it's not a prerelease door at least it will fit on someones phone
edit: I mean the OP's backdoor will fit...the dummy phone backs WILL NOT fit our phones, I hope ppl didnt think I meant the other way around

After looking at this Ebay page more closely, I found that the battery covers that they have and I have are different. The speaker hole on mine isn't even that shape. If you compare my photos to theirs, you will see how theirs is fake. The original prerelease battery covers have the main speaker hole the way mine does.
yeah they're not the same as the one you have..the ones you have were sold on a site a couple months back but sold out
Isn't it backwards? The camera and LED ports are on the right????

Red, white and green are all available on ebay. I have been thinking about ordering a red one. What I would really like is for someone to make a replacement cover out of metal (assuming it would not kill the reception.)
+1 for a metal cover. Real carbon fiber would be the shiz! Then I would buy one for sure

Like I said, when you call with the part number, they can give you a price.
Well The Package Said $24.99
But I Guess It Was On Sale? $19.99
And Then I Had A Work Discount $14.99
I just picked mine up today from my local corporate store, they had the red and white doors in stock. You just half to ask for them as they are not on the sales floor. It was on sale for 19.99 for me as well. I posted a couple pictures for anyone who wants a good look at it.
I'll see mine for $10, was used once with a case lol, I use a case so I find no use for it anymore, I as well paid around $20 and have receit I believe it was direct order from verizon.
I just ordered the red and white... You may have to call customer service a couple times to get someone who can actually find it in the system...
It looks good, I just would like to have a full color all the way around instead of half and half. But to each their own.
I buy it for

I wasn't able to find this one on the vz site...do you have a picture of it?
I know VZ has a black/red SPECK one and the regular high gloss red one and also a black one (that's the one I have), but those are all cases and not battery covers.
Thanks.
EDIT: I thought it was a red/white combo not the 2 separate...sorry. lol.
loose doors?
Does anyone who has these back doors(I have a while one) use them with the stock battery or with an upgraded 1500mah battery? I ask my original has always creaks and cracks when held or pushed in the wrong spot and it's happened on all refurbs that I've had for various reasons, and these doors weight just hair lighter than the OEM black door and it makes mine even worse, it fixes it with some cardboard back there, but does anyone else have any insight or experience with this issue?
I can't vouch for the battery covers I had a TP1 and TP2 by htc aswell as a HTC Touch back in the day, but the tp1 did the creaking noise after the case started getting really worn, but it seems since the tp2 days it's happened to every htc phone I have had my hands on... I usually just stick a couple layers of padding in there like you did with the cardboard but I usually used electrical tape and applied multiple layers where necessary to the actual battery cover.

I've been on the hunt for a really slim, lightweight case for my Incredible. I have the white HTC battery cover, so I was hoping for something like the iPhone "bumper" cases that allow the back to show through. Since there doesn't seem to be much in that department, I went hunting for the closest thing: the REVEAL by Griffin Technologies.
I really really like it, and couldn't find any other discussion of it, so I did a quick video review, and also took some close-up photos. I promise this isn't an ad, I actually do love this case!
Griffin sells it for $24.99, but you might be able to find it cheaper somewhere else.

You just sold me on this so hard. Buying right now. Looks amazing with the white back, I can't wait to show it off finally, haha.
Oh by the way, check it out all. Found a coupon code if you order direct from Griffin Technology's website. The code is PIRILLO1510, it seems to have been active for a few months and you get 15% and free shipping. I can confirm it works. Hope this will help someone else out.

Nice review I was in the market for a case earlier in January but I got one before I saw your review. Then again, maybe if I had a cool white battery cover it'd look cooler. I still have the stock black one.

For those who have bought this case,
How rubbery is the black part of the case? Is there plenty of flex to easily hit all the buttons? Does it feel solid or cheap?

Does anyone know where I can get a cheap battery door other than Ebay. I don't really trust shippers from China anymore to many times have I needed a refund. I have tried Verizon and they no longer carry battery doors for DInc. Mine has become chipped up along the sides and doesn't quite stay attatched right. Thanks.

I got a sweet deal on one but its missing the battery cover Currently I have a trimmed up gift card taped to the back so the big hole is covered up. I found one at baka.ca but they want $26 for it. I work at Best Buy, if I'm going to pay that for one ill just steal the one off our display model

I called AT&T and was sent to HTC whom sent me to some other company. Once I explained my issue to the third representative I was told HTC had been sending quite a few people with the same problem to them and there was nothing they could do to help me. Ill call HTC again and see what they say this time, I was just curious if there were any other third party venders I could order one from.
Try a Case
I'm sorry you lost the battery cover. I can see how it could easily happen. Bad design, HTC, bad.
For those of us more fortunate, I would recommend a cover or case of some type. Yes, they make the whole thing bigger and heavier, but we won't lose the battery cover, and our Vivids will have some protection.
Ironically, on some earlier HTC models, users complained about how difficult it was to remove the battery cover.

I've gotten two battery doors in the mail, the stock one felt loose on the bottom side, and the first one I received was looser than a prom where, and and the third did the trick. The other culprit is the plastic clamp that the battery doorbar hinges onto in the back of the phone, it can wear out over time.

Hopefully anybody else that has this problem in the future has a little better luck than me!

Ordered the scarlet one too. I'll post some pictures when it arrives. Including shipping to Germany it came 35,98 €. Compared to eg official Samsung covers it really isn't that expensive. The thing i wonder is, if we may see some more accesoires in the near future (dock perhaps)? Hopefully Google has something more to come...
It came to just over £30 in the UK. 3 - 5 Shipping days. Can't wait!

It doesn't cover the back of the device, or the corners. Much better 3rd party cases already available.

I like the concept of not covering the back, but I agree it should fold. It´s seems prety rigid, making it even somewhat uncorfortable to hold the tablet. I will wait for some reviews and photos around here.

Same here, its a crap design for $30. I'm going to stick with the poetic case. Id prefer something that just covered the front (im not clumsy) because the tablet is so thin and light and then folds into a stand but this isnt it.
