i own a white mytouch and i noticed the white model has a green mytouch logo on the back instead of the normal silver one. they show it very quickly after whoopi, phil jackson, and jesse james pass off the phones. anyone know if these are coming out of the box like this or if theres a place to order them? tmobile.com doesnt have any and i didnt see any on ebay. looks pretty sharp.

thats just one of the wallpapers photoshopped with the mytouch logo....
here you go:
thanks for the reply but i dont think that is correct. to make the logo on the back portion of the phone a different color i doubt tmobile would use a wallpaper from the phone and photo shop it if it was simply for the commercial's sake...they simply could have altered the color during the editing process. and the logo on the back of the handset doesnt match up perfectly with the one from the wallpaper. the "my" is identical but the "touch" is directly underneath (on the wallpaper) whereas the logo on the handset is a full circle with nothing underneath the "my" im going to check it out at the tmobile store tomorrow. ask them if they have the green back logo on their handsets.
i get the feeling it might just be done for the commercial and all handsets will come with the standard silver mytouch logo.

Has anyone else seen one of these, and is as pissed about it as I am. Alltel is getting the mogul with a black case and I want one oh so badly, but considering I switched from alltel's **** service to begin with I am not gonna go back. Think it is possible to get a hold of some black case plastic parts and swap them minus the softkeys on the front?
For the ones who have not seen here is a link:

just wait a little while. verizon is buying alltel, so you might be able to pick up the alltel mogul and have verizon add the ESN to their database.
I know that I had seen a website selling the casings, even a Sprint branded black one. I don't really remember the site, though I think I read about it on ppcgeeks. I'll post here if I find anything.
I have an all black one with no branding, its a pre-prod case with new hardware
so, uh.... where'd you get it?
that was the most irritating loading screen ever... looking at it, i wanted to punch someone in the face.
the phone looks nice tho

im looking for the link as well... i know its SOMEWHERE... i had it... about a month ago... there is a site that sells the black shells for the moguls WITHOUT branding...
The 1 DOWNFALL to this site and the shells is... NO GPS ANTENNA...
BUT!!! if your going to replace your shell ANYWAY you should be EASILY able to remove the one from your stock shell and place it into the black one.. (i cannot remember if it has the plastic fittings but super glue or super thin sticky tape will work just as well)
EDIT: Found the youtube of the black sprint branded one... still not the website that sells them tho...

You can sand down the ppc6800 stock housing and it will become black. Problem is you cannot sand it down where icons are painted.
I am thinking of doing it when I get some free time but I am not sanding down the buttons.
Sorry its not a statement but rather a question. Does anyone know how to remove it? I understand the back of the battery cover is slightly rubberised is that correct? So could we use nail polish remover or gently scrape the logo away with our fingernail? Or is there somewhere to buy a replacement cover with no logo?
Thanks!
i've heard you can buy replacement covers online for around 15 quid. sounds like a lot of money to me though. i would try removing the logo with something like white spirit. i did this on my laptop to remove the Advent branding from the lid.
For some reason when I bought the handset it was written as Orange. But it is fully unlocked and Unbranded so no Orange Crap software nor logos on the device. Is it meant to be like this or am I the lucky one?

Mine came direct from Orange, so isn't unlocked (or at least I don't think it is - haven't tried to be honest), but it still came without any Orange software or logos (other than the one on the back cover)
Luckily, on this phone at least, Orange have seen fit not to strangle it
(Unlike Vodaphone and their X1s...)
there've been a lot of ppl who "unbrand" their phone physically this way... Google it and you will defo. find it.
Mine is also Orange, but tbh, I like Orange logo , and mine is locked (tried with T-mobile sim) but no Orange's software... its using the generic ROM i think.

As stated previous mine also seems totally unbranded from Orange.
Orange contract - seems totally unbranded except for the logo on the back.
Oh, and Orange Plus in the programs.

Sorry but that is not a Touch HD cover. Looks like the cover for another HTC Touch phone.
Usually you can get rid of operator logos on the case with a sugar cube.
De Sugar is hard enough to get rid of the paint, but soft enough to not hurt the case itself.
However I never tried it on a rubberized surface, so I do not take the responsability.
I have gottn rid of logos really well with ink erasers, but again not on a rubberised surface
DONT TRY Sugar Cubes
I have tried on my tytn2 from orange which has fairly the same back material and I ended up with a whole on the devices back cover.
Well basically not a whole but what I am saying is. Behind the Orange logo there is no rubber it is metal or plastic to make the cover hard. So the Logo it self is part of the rubberized back. If you take it off it wil look nasty and will spoil ur phone's look completely coz it willl be different coloured unless you paint it.
Well Its upto the USer. what he decides to do with his BLACKSTONE. HAHA
Hey there is there any way to remove that stupid tmobile logo on the phone?.. wondering beacuse im getting another hd2 from usa and id really hate to have that branding on there and my carrier isnt even tmobile!
Its doubtful and if you did it would screw up the finish on the phone.
you can see that the logo is under the glass so theres no way to remove it. u only have two options, put a sticker over it or go on ebay and buy a replacement digitizer that doesn't have the tmobile logo on it...
rlee
Buy a case that covers it up.
dude its not that serious. The t-mobile logo doesn't look bad nor its purple or pink unless you wanna sell it as the international version
hey i have a black x10 but i'm regretting buying it,as the white one looks much sexier.........so can i get it changed it to white at the service centers.....?????

I am in the same situation, thinking of getting a new body from ebay. They sell this white body for around 35$.

But you won't get a full white phone as the area around the screen is black on your device and that area is actually part of the screen. So you'll get a black and white hybrid/panda/star trooper phone.
I got white and I want the black one
Id happily swap my white x10 for a black one but it'd need to be uk and unlocked/locked to orange. And whoever swaps will need to unlock my white one when they get it as its locked to orange atm. Pm me if anyones up for a swap...
-------------------------------------
..
The black one is much sexier and it does not grab too much attention.
can someone find a picture of a black phone using the white body, i'm rather interested in how it looks

I actually started calling it Panda. However McKebapp started calling it Star Trooper. He also made this guide which show you how to disassemble and reassemble your X10.
I really LOVE white phones because they look so much cleaner and more expensive and because 99% of all phones are black...I dont want to mess with my warranty but I am sure that I will put white back cover on my black phone, Im sure it will look great
Can someone who has both make some photos of that ? Only put white battery cover on black phone.
Tnx
www.dealextreme.com has some supposedly original ones.
i have the white one. and woudent trade it for the world for a black one.

Yes, there are also original housings on ebay.com but no one is selling only back cover, only full sets. Also around 30$...I would pay someone fair amount for white phone :-( I hate black phones...
I want the Panda phone <3
Hi everybody, I am new to xda forum. I have been waiting for black one already long enough but today it pissed me off when been told that "news". Firstly a guy from buymobilephones.co.uk told me that they actually have. blackones in stock but they didnt pass their quality check procedure due to body paint coming off. I went then straigjt to Three shop where i have been told exactly the same! Does anybody heard anything about? anybody managed to get a black one in contract in uk?
I know there was one guy that posted yesterday (I believe) that received his black One. Hopefully some more people can jump in and comment as I'm going to be holding out for black as well.
I anticipated as much mate. Main reason I went silver.
A number of people have received and posted pictures of their black One in the thread following the black preorders:

Mine has issues. Black sim free from P4U.
Screen isn't flush to the unibody one one side of the device. Not really noticeable unless you look closeup side-on, but it is indeed faulty.
