Is it boxed / complete? Last one I bought like that on ebay I paid £135 for. It was a jasjar not an exec though
Richard.

go to www.htceurope.com and get their phone number and ask how much it would be to put a newlcd in. cant be that much surely, better than taking a huge monetary drop
if all fails, ill give you a tenner for it matey, jokes aside please find out how much it would be, you might be surprised

HTC won't repair XDA devices only orange and t-mob branded units - if you read liverpool's previous thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=40201&highlight=
I've already suggested a few routes :-(
Richard
Fluffcat; It is boxed everything there, 2 extra protective cases one of which is a hard case not a leather one and also screen protector.
I have already rang htc europe and they were no help. But i dont understand how the screen cracked it was in its leather case and didnt fall, took it out of my pocket and it was cracked.
But if anyone wants to make an offer ill think about it.
50$
i think $50 is a bit little. :lol:
Have you tried PPCTechs for a screen replacement? they seem to do it for 249 dollars
You could try sending it to a mate via royal mail, insure it for whatever value it will cost to replace, if the screen breaks on route it will be covered. Oh, sorry, just reread your post, didn't realise it was already broke :wink:
Regards
what would you sell it for? I'm looking at keeping it as a spare parts reserve for my universal
Cheers,
San

First, sorry to hear about your device. Bummer. I keep it in my back pocket sometimes and I hope I never forget to take it out.
If you're able to keep it, please do donate it for development. Midget_1990 is the one you want to make arrangements with if you don't mind donating it to the cause. This will help us start earlier than previously. Once we get Midget_1990 his phone we can send it to another developer I have in mind. Thanks for the post and offering to help. Let's keep our fingers crossed.
insurers arent open today (how lazy) and as i have no phone or digital camera cant post pics its right accross the screen top to bottom. if i can hold on to it or as much as possible might just send in the main device minus battery keyboard etc i will try posting whats available to Midget_1990. will let you guys know tomorrow assuming i get it sorted and hope to get it back soon ........

if you're using the t-mob insurance they'll want the other one back, and make sure if you get it swapped in t-mob store that you take in everything that came with it, to send back, otherwise they'll charge you full retail price! I've found it best to take the unit and new battery from the offered box and leave everything as is.. this from exchanging 3 universals through that scheme..
They definitely will not send you a new battery and yes you will be charged for anything you don;t return.
I had a nightmare year last year with my Universal - without being aware when I knocked it the screen cracked three times. Each time Orange replaced but I life in fear of my Advantage bought from a 3rd party along with a Vodafone contract (T-Mobile doesn't exist around here) which is only on the house insurance.
So please don't post it this subject you're making me nervous!

Have you tried approaching one of the mobile phone insurers for your own contract. Phonesafe thru T-mobile charge £8.99 pcm - I wonder if they would provide a policy to you direct. Must be worth trying because your house policy excess may be quite high?
A quick google shows lots of mobile phone insurers - see for example: Mobile Phone Insurer reviews
Maybe then you can read this thread without squirming!

I am on my fourth Ameo (1st one GPS stopped), the following ones have all been faulty replacements (until my most recent one, which works).
The point is that when I did the first exchange it was in a T-mobile store and I needed it urgently. The GPS had just stopped working but I did not have the box with me. I asked them to do an exchange on the undertaking that I would bring the box into the store the following week to swap it over. However, when I went in the following week, they said they had sent the other box (i.e. the box from the exchanged one) away and didn't need my box.
The other exchanges have all been through T-mobile's call centre - they send out (by courier) a new handset (not including keyboard, battery, screen protector etc) and take the old one away at the same time. It worked quite well - they given you a morning or afternoon slot, which the courier seemed to stick to. If you don't hand over your handset, they don't hand over the new one!!!
well alll i managed was an extra styli, and replaced my keyboard/case and phone so there all shiney but no extra. damn but i tried my best sorry guys, maybe i can 'lose' it next time and theyl never know....
Just installed pocket hack master and it shows stable @ 728 Mhz my old one couldnt even run stable at 663 only at 624 i know many havent being able to overclock but now i can
My beloved MDA dropped today...it still works, BUT, the usb port is loose, and Assurion doesn't have any to swap out under insurance...they offered me the Wing (gag me!). I am seeking a working Wizard with a solid usb port...locked or unlocked (hello lokiwiz)...
I will not respond to "you can have mine for $300"...I can get one on ebay for $160 or less.
If you have moved on and want to part with your WORKING Wizard, please contact me.
"you can have mine for $300"
Thanks.
You know, my mama always said::
"EVERYONE LIKES A LITTLE ASS, NO ONE LIKES A SMART ASS"
I'm serious. I am willing to pay the $110 insurance would charge me, up to about $160-ish, which is what I have found as the asking price on ebay
...if anyone has an old, but WORKING, Wizard, and you have upgraded to a new device and don't know what to do with the Wizard, please contact me. If the condition is good and your price fair, I would be very interested in getting it.
Thanks.
Y not take Wing?
It is the same thing as MDA but just thiner. Oh well - tastes are different, although I have Like New MDA that I am using currently and not really want to move on cuz it works for me at this moment. If it happens I hear from some1 that wants to sell, I'll pass that onto you.
Anyway - I wouldn't recommend eBay to anyone when it comes to buying MDA. Friend of mine bought 1 - supposedly refurbished perfect cosmetic condition and received BEATER!!! Scratches all over the phone, screen damage, opens on its own - I mean he was looking to get the deal and got bad beater phone. Later on he got brand new Wing from Tmobile.
MDA story was completed by seller not responding to his e-mails and he filled with paypal a dispute so he got the money back and never sent the phone back to the seller. He sold the phone as is on the ebay for 170$ ... with all the explanations and everything...
I bought mine on ebay and is LIKE NEW (Or even new!)
It depends on who you buy the products.. There are many sellers and many are legit!
If you havent bought yet dont say that...
pm'd with offer
If you go through eBay, just avoid "rob3474." I got a Qtek 9100 from him that was supposed to be "like new." Suffice to say, it has a lot of wear and needed some attention before it would function semi-properly. Still having some issues with it a month later...
I sent you a pm with an offer
Still looking...
I have not been very active since having surgery. I got some great PM's but a couple fell through, so...
I am still seeking a working, reasonably priced Wizard-preferably a G3. My main concern is not with cosmetics, I just need a well working Wizard with a very SOLID usb port.
I have been quite busy with doctor appointments and physical therapy, so please be patient with me, I will respond to PM's.
I am thinking about upgrading shortly, I have a fully unlocked G3 Wizard. Will let you know if I do decide to upgrade. It has typical scratches on the body, usb is solid and it works great.

Well I had a potential sale fall through, so I am again back looking for a good condition (solid usb port, gently handled) Wizard. Preferably a G3. I am willing to go as high as $150 with shipping, and will pay with Money Order or Visa Gift Card, or if you bank with Wells Fargo, a direct money transfer. I will NOT send cash (I do not trust the USPS and want to have a recourse if the payment is lost in the mail), and I cannot use Paypal because my account is frozen due to some supposed fraudulent activity (I suspect someone tried to hack my account). If you have an MDA in good condition and want to sell, please PM me.
Thanks.
Ill trade you my MDA for the wing that you are going to receve.
It is in good shape. (although I have to be honest I dropped it once or twice)
It was mostly held in it's case untill I lost it. then I bought a black plastic cover/skin for it. It doesn't look like I just bought it. The plastic cover I bought for 10 buck makes it look like it.
I could use an upgrade, but I'm not due untill september.
I love my wizard. it is very durable, and well worth the cost; so I won't be upset or offended if you don't take the offer
I hope you find what you are looking for. if not PM me
don't ask me how it happened, i'm just telling you that you can't rely on the HD2 drop test video on youtube... if someone knows a good place that will make my hd2 look like a new one again, please tell me!
Holy crap!!
Good luck on finding a new housing and screen. Might as well chalk this up as stupid/careless/accident and just get a new one.
pitchbend your not the only one mine was picked up by UPS yesterday afternoon and is off to HTC for repair.
When I first phoned the helpdesk hadn't even received the price list off the service centre. I had to phone them up the next day and then wait for Lee to call me back
Spares are like rocking horse crap at the moment and the only people that seem to have them are HTC's service centres.
I've been quoted £140 luckily the insurance will pay

Haha... Sorry for laughing, im not laughing at you. try to fix it under guarentee and say it happend wwith you thumb and pressed too hard or something
(its probaly not working that way but you can try, ''no'' you alreddy have and ''yes'' you may get)
Or maybe u can say: ''i have no idea how this happend, but i saw supicious little creatures jumping on the screen when i left my phone on the table at night''
This maybe sounds hillarious but i have said this one time when my SE w810 had a broken lcd. They said they done it for free because the funny make up story
Have you called HTC? Should be under warrenty? Not many other options...good luck.
Somehow I don't think throwing your phone off the ground will be covered by warranty!
Either pay the repair costs, or fork out for a new one I'm afraid.
I suppose you could buy a new one - and keep that one for 3 months until spares are available... then eBay it!
Do you people not have insurance on this phone?
Really, at £550 a pop, I would assume insurance would be a VERY sensible option.
And how the hell did you smash the bottom of that screen in?! Looks like someone stood on it.

Maybe it's just me, but I've never purchase any insurance for any of my phones. The last phone I've had was a $700 Diamond when it first came out. I check to make sure I have my phone on me at all time. NO. MATTER. WHAT. I've grown to the point where I'm very paranoid when I step out of my car and didn't feel the phone in my pocket. Everywhere I go, I make sure the phone is in a secure spot (ie, carrying case) if not, I will make sure it's in an enclosed pocket (front pants pocket). Don't ever put your phone on your shirt pocket or anywhere with an opening because when you bend over to pick up something...BAM!! Just simple reminders that many tend to overlook. It's just a higher level of awareness when you spend an upward of $700-$1000 for a phone.
hi,
first of all a big 'sorry you', i know how it feels when a brand new toy dies.... i think spareparts are not available at this early time after release. and the glas is maby a part of the display itself wich makes it expesive. so best will be to send to htc for repair.

and if you want to try this, than you should send thme a copy of the book 'the wee free man' (i attached a picture of the cover), to proove your words .
regards mad.
to say that must be heartbreaking has to be the understatement of the year... lots of dude's don't bother with phone insurance but have you thought about claiming of your house and contents? If you have it the excess fee will surely be less than the cost of outright replacement...
yours in deepest sympathy
I'd go online and purchase some insurance, wait a few weeks and...
Thats nasty mate, I feel for you!
Insurance is all well and good but as with any insrance company the do not like paying out, you have to chose your words very carefully when telling them how it happened!
Know how you feel.
Oh,
That picture sent a shiver down my spine . Looks like the dog's been at it!
Year before last I got my shiney TytnII Christmas Eve, and trod on it Christmas morning. Certainly wasn't feeling seasonal after that.

When you are 16 years old, and owning a $1000 Sharp IQ8300M with 128KB RAM, and repairing your bike's tyre with a bucket of water to find the hole in the tyre, and you drop your $1000 dollar gadget in the bucket while bending over,
you will never, ever , ever ever put your phone in some risky place again. Ever. Ever.
My god the trauma hasn't gone! Anyone seen such device on ebay,
I need me one to get over it ...I just realized that..
That's disturbing.
You really need to put a NSFW or 18+ tag on something like that.
Whats a good place/company to get these insured? (in uk)

Got mine insured through 'Supercover' - £9.99 per month covers my HD, and the wife and brother in law's iphones. Think (for the gadget mad) they do a 5 gadget cover for £14.99.
Feel your pain - my HD was replaced within 3 days of getting it thanks to an unzipped pocket.
Good luck with it!
EDIT - here's their link if it's any use

EDIT - the wife has suitably informed me that Supercover now do the underwriting, and you need to go through a broker. Link attached

This site http://cnn.cn will get it, but it's still to early you need to be patient or rich. they are based in Hong kong I've bought a cover once and got it in three weeks (good quality).
hi,
while surfing the net im stumble upon this honkong guy , i dont know everything about them, and never bougth something from them. but they offer the frontglas with the touchscreen, so if someone is in need for it, this may help.
mad.
So i just ordered a new screen for my Aria because my dumbass dropped it walking past security at my job, wehere i have to show them its my phone so they know im not stealing anything because my job handles a wide variety of products, cracked it, i dont wanna deal w/ att on it because A) i have my phone perfectly how i like it and B) i dont wanna redo anything i have done, my question is there a How to video so i can follow the video, and if there is not a video up yet, would anyone be interested in me taking pictures of the process for anyone else so i can just make my own how-to thread.
there is a good guide on how to change the screen already on the forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733596
thanks for that! i wasnt sure about if there was a good guide out there for it yet!
Hey quick question. Where did you get the replacement screen for the Aria?
http://www.repairsuniverse.com/htc-aria-touch-screen-digitizer-glass-replacement.html
I havent actually ordered it yet, cause of financial delay, but you can also find them on Ebay from Hong Kong, i dont know where this one is coming from.
I broke mine today... luckily it was only the glass near the optical trackball.
Why are these replacements so expensive?
sheesh. the place i took my wifes too only cost $100 total.
CNN.cn has the replacement screen for $45, but they are backorder, so no telling when you might actually be able to get one...
