Accessories Red & Black Replacement Battery Covers!

[cortland1998]

So, after searching for over a month on a way to replace my broken glass and bent red ring, that covers the camera... I FINALLY found some replacements. My original post on the ghetto replacement with a dummy phone.

I thought I'd share this site with everyone in case they wanted to get a cool looking red cover for the back. Here are what they look like.

The website is here.

They should make a black one out of that shiny plastic that would bee pretty cool.

SICK DUDE! the red cover is the original one shown in all the pre-released leaked photos. ordered!

Solid find, but it is says that it come with a black camera ring???
How does that work, are our rings and glass that easy to remove??

The pictures look suspiciously sloppy and, as jj3699 notes, the covers come with silver or black camera rings.....what? Are those rings attached to the covers? Anyway, I'll stay tuned to see what comes of this. Thanks OP for the find.

I ordered one as well so I'll keep you guys posted. In talking with the company.. they are not attached to the case. I know this because I have taken mine apart and they are all separate pieces. He also confirmed this with me. The whole reason I'm ordering is to replace my broken glass that covers the camera lens.

Any word on the ring? Did it come with the glass lens cover also? Thanks!

I actually forgot to place my order last week... I did end up placing it a couple days ago so I will let you know once I get it.

This looks really cool... I bought a M2 mount by Soundgate for my car... and it requires you to put an adhesive mounting on the back of the device to be mounted.

It's a great mount system, but I wasn't too keen on putting the mount on the actual phone, OR buying a case.

With a replacement back, this might do the trick! There aren't any other replacement backs are there...?

A good resource to have, just hope i won't need it....

I got mine... It's the legit real deal. Even came with some of the internals and red rocker switches. I'm probably going to order a bunch of these, they've got to be leftovers from the preproduction models.

Is the red/orange cover hard, glossy, plastic? Could you please take a couple pictures? I would really like to see what this looks like. Also, the website says that it comes with a "camera ring." What exactly is that? Is it a full camera lens?

Much appreciated.

A quick question for those that have order one and received it already. How long did shipping take? I ordered one on the 9th and I'm dying to get it!!!!

I got mine in 8 days.. factor in the 4th of July holiday weekend... Probably a week at most.</P>

 

[kevinbakon]

Has anyone tried swapping out the volume rocker, power button & usb port?

 

[UHF3]

Thank you sir. I figure mine should be here on the 20th.

I got mine in today and installed. Looks pretty cool! I cant upload pictures at work so check it out at my website until I post photos. HTTP://www.cortlandrobinson.com

WTF?
Playing music on load is just WRONG

Mine shipped on the 8th and came in today. Unfortunately I wasn't here to sign for it (requires sig at delivery) so picking it up tomorrow at the post office. Interested to see how it looks in-the-flesh.

Not going to mess with replacing the black rockers with the red ones. From what I can tell, that would require removing the 4 screws at the corners of the phone and some disasembly (could be wrong though) and I'm not ready to void my warranty just yet. Plus I think I'll like the red/black contrast.

Bump

Also, I just received my red cover & I have to say I love it.
As I had read from the original test phone comments, the RED color is awesome and not orange at all!

Oh yeah, one more thing, within minutes of getting my red back on the phone, the "h" on the back came off, so apparently the chrome "htc" is as poorly applied as the one that came with the phone.
