change housing(Hermes)

Here it is service manual to open/change tytn housing and display....

Good call!

Wow, great finding...This would come in handy! Thanks

Good stuff

Excellent!! great Find!!

Thank you.
One question:
People looking this thread should know.
8525 and other Herm100 and/orHerms200 have same mainboard.
8525 has only empty socket for webcam or has different mainboard without any webcam socket?
I plan to have a cingular 8525 and do all roms suitable for 8525 or will I need to find specific 8525 roms.

By the way the housing is pretty easy to change on the Hermes, it only took me about 30 minutes to dismantle and re-assemble mine.
Just be careful not to damage the ribbons inside.

Thanks for uploading this. I really need it.

Sometimes I wonder if folk read the Hermes Wiki! The service manual, dismantling guides and even a dismantling video have been linked there for a looooong time. See near the bottom of the page:

By the way - moving this to Hermes General forum as changing the housing is not an "upgrading" matter.

Android 2 to HD2?

Hey friends,
probably this has been asked before, but still a major consideration of which phone to buy.
anyone knows for certain if this will be available \ can be done?
thanks a lot,
P.S you guys seem most skillful dev team, keep up guys.

it is possible but no one can assure you that this will happen. look at the orginal HD port as an example

you will never find the right answer, and we all already can see it is pretty tough to put an non android phone with a fully working android? So far, it is pretty impossible. Why would you putting high hope with a wm phone to be ported with android? this will not be a good factor at all for choosing a phone? my 2 cents.

If I read the signs right, there will bei a Android Version of the Leo in early 2010.
Maybe there is a change to flash between the two OS.
On the other Hand this would mean HTC didnt give an capactive Display to the Leo for being ready for Windows Mobile 7 but for being able to sell it as Android Device aswell.

If you want to google for this version you should use the magic words "HTC Dragon"

Cool .. I'm reading this forum for two weeks to get reason NOT to buy Leo. Still haven't found one. But this might be it ..

You likely have a clone. Should be a 3.2mp camera too.
There is a thread for flashing clones, just search the forum.
(US phones do not have front cameras but are 512mb/256mb)

no, your phone is NOT real HTC. it is FAKE. you will not be able to install ANY Diamond 2 ROM. sorry.
the thread you should look for for the FAKE diamond 2 has tags with the T5355 i think. the ORIGINAL Topaz is T5353.
you bought a crap copy. sorry.

[Q]Change HD2 Screen & LCD

Hi guys,
Unfortunately my HD2 fell and the screen cracked. So, i searched ebay found me a LCD and digitizer but im not sure how to change both of them. I googled a little bit found some tutorials but i don't really trust them so can anyone post a tutorial that worked for them previously? My HD2 is nearly not able to be used because of the shattered glass I was actually considering getting a new phone

Look here:
http://mperlitsch.hintergrundbild.com/htc_hd2.htm#Zerlegeanleitung
This Tutorial is working 100%. But you need a little experience to take apart electronic devices. ESD-Protection and of course a new Touchscreen or a complete Touch/LCD Combo ( cost more, but makes it a lot easier for u ). The Problem, this is all in German and you US-HD2 is a little Different, but i´ll make next time a Video, so everyone can see with moving pictures how easy all the steps are.
Maybe the tutorial above is better than nothing for you and don´t sell your fantastic HD2. It´s the Best Phone i ever had...
Grettings,
Michael

Thanks alot man just ordered my digitizer
