I purchased one of these as the housing i had was getting very messy
http://cgi.ebay.ie/FULL-HOUSING-KEYBOARD-HTC-TyTN-II-2-P4550-P-KAISER-/180496072719?cmd=ViewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item2a0667800f
DONT BUY THIS KIT !!!
The item was listed as new but clearly most of the parts were used.
The biggest problem I had was with the front face plate.
There is a few gold "connectors" that have to be melted in the plastic.
I had to break these out of my old case and used a soldering iron to put them into the new faceplate.
There was also the gold screw holes! these were a real pain.
Again they needed to be broken from the old case and then gently heated with the iron until they melted into their respective hole.
Maybe this is what I should have expected but it would have been nice if they said a little fiddling was required for fitting.
The keyboard was also not as the picture is. It was a chinese keyboard so I just used my own.
All in all it worked out well and my phone looks spanking new but its not really a worthwhile mod given the cost and hastle.
I was also planning to buy that housing but had a second thought about the keyboard. my original keyboard is all black and doesnt have the white numpad.
thanx for the advice ! ill try to inquire from other seller.
how about this one?

A few days ago I received the same housing from the same vendor and is all ok. Mounting screw is settled and the exterior is not damaged.
Before ordering I contacted him and sent a picture of my phone. When he confirmed that everything (including keyboard) is identical, I ordered. I got the body and I get happy.
I think you had bad luck
Maybe its bad luck but eBay rules are pretty straight forward.
I was not sold what was listed in the pictured and it was not new (item had marks from use where case slides apart and also scratching.)
The keyboard was not the one in the picutes. I actually have a full black KB but wanted to go with the white panelled one in the pic.
What I got was a chinese all black KB. Useless to me.
Anyway, i got my phone rebuilt and its looks new and works great. It took a little more fiddling than I would have expected and the KB was wrong.
I left Neutral feedback for the vendor because I felt I got what I needed.
codejack:
sorry to say but it is really a bad luck. lets try to be careful with items like that and inquire every detail of the item we will buy. thanks for sharing pal

thanks for the tip. ill try to send a picture of my unit when i buy a full housing so that everything will be clear to the seller

Folks,
I would like to take this opportunity and confess. I, mostly a silent reader and user of the forum sold my blackberry on ebay few months ago after using Xplodes 6.1 rom. I always liked blue angel due to it's big screen but never could use it trustworthy for my job as I need emails and that too pushed and errorless and effortless. So I was using blackberry for work and BA for fun. Ever since Xplodes 6.1 I sold my bberry and used BA for emails and fun. and saved some money on service providers data charges.
Sad news is I broke my BA today (cable connecting LCD is torn while trying to clean up inside out. stupid me don't ask how and why I did it but a simple part connecting LCD and on slider is torn).
So I may be going back to blackberry or any other Pocket PC Hermes or Tilt which they offer in US.
If you guys have any suggestions let me know. But I would like to take an opportunity to the excellent work done by lot of great Guru's here.
Thank you all
Just bought it
Got Kaiser from ebay for 380 USD. Should be with me in 3 days. I hope I made the right choice. Would miss you all and most importantly my BA.
Hi.
Kaiser has a 2.8" screen and to me...2.8" screens are a totally different experience compared to 3.5". Although, kaiser's screen will be definitely better than ba's...size always matters.
I have also broken my lcd's cable :-/ and now i'm waiting for a new one from ebay.
Have fun with your kaiser
I want cable
I would love to have my BA fixed even if I bought kaiser. I thought you would have to replace LCD as I don't see cable and lcd as different things in BA. Can you please point me where on ebay and for how much you got the cable. If possible please post a link and I would buy it in an a spit.
Yes..you're right. It's not just the cable...i will replace the lcd. I bought it for 42 euro(including shipping) but it's not here yet and i'm not even sure if the lcd is the problem. :-/ (i have a white screen on my blueangel..so i hope it will work with the new lcd)
I can inform you when i get the screen and if everything is ok i'll tell you the seller's name.
so i thought about replacing the housing on my wing with black house like one found here (http://cnn.cn/shop/tmobile-wing-black-housing-p-4828.html) (ebay has it cheaper) and i was wondering if there is a good guide somewhere to use, or should i make one?
I did the same thing with my wing. I have the black housing with the HTC logo instead of the t-mobile blue. The guides I used to take everything apart are below. One pictorial and one video made for replacing the LCD digitizer but every step is needed to replace the housing. I am not sure if there is a step by step process here on XDA so feel free to start a guide if you wish. Here are the links:

thanks man, if/ when i do it ill be sure to make a guide. where did you get your housing from?
Your welcome,
I purchased my housing from eBay. The cost was about $20 US cheaper than that link, just as you suspected. Same housing, same rubberized feel you have with the OEM blue housing; it looks very sharp when you have it all put together. Good luck with the guide. Make sure you post up a link when you put it all together.
depending on my pay check i may order the housing this week. i need to get my digital camera back before i can make my guide. you can check out the one i made for the tmobie dash to know what kind of work to expect.
already got one on watch on my ebay
ive been looking into this almost since i bought my wing. had the thing apart several times already, but i cant find a site that sells it with the black face buttons. might look sinda dumb all black w/ blue buttons.
anybody know who's got em?
Hi all,
I have to admit I have a sneaky feeling this should not be here but I'm not sure where to put it... It's not strictly a accessory but anyway, if it is wrong, please do advise.
I'm after anyone here who has or knows of a someone that sells HD2 spares?
I obtained two screen repair HD2s - both have been tampered with previously and while the units both work fine, the front keypad ribbon is broken in two so the keys are not responding.
I have managed to source 2 LCD's but without these buttons, I'm lumbered with two units and two brand new LCD units.
Appreciate any help on this!
Thanks,
Akash

Not sure if this is much help but I did recall seeing a guy on Craigslist in Toronto selling an HD2 in mint condition except for the fact that the glass screen looked like it took a bullet. The LCD was perfect underneath and no scratches anywhere. Not quite sure how someone can do that to it and keep in mint at the same time but anyway it was posted in April and they were asking for around $300 CAN.
Thanks for that suggestion
I have actually been looking around Ebay UK (Where I am) for faulty HD2s but no one will sell them cheaply so...
Bit the bullet and requested a return on the LCD - the seller will refund me the full value back. Just wish I could get these parts as the rest of the unit is mint and given that I've already stripped the screen off (not the easiest task!), it would have been great just to put it back together in a working state.
Thanks again and if anyone does have any other suggestions in getting hold of the keypad, I would appreciate a quick note on it
My X2 fell from the pouch case and as i result it endured some minor scratches in its housing. Now i can't get over seeing it and wanter to replace it. I went to SE service center here in our place (Pampanga, Philippines) but they told me they weren't allowed to open such device because of their level 2 accreditation.
They gave me and address and a contact number of the center which is allowed to do so. I first contacted the service center and asked for the price if ever i will purchase new housing and casings. I saw housings in the internet being sold prior to that.
But to my surprise, according to the technical representative that responded to my text, they don't have replacement housing for this device. And told me the ones i saw in the internet are not original and is not advisable to buy it. (though the seller from that site claims that its original)
Guys, are there any original housing in your respective country? Or if u happen to know any site which is selling it.
Please don't hesitate to post it here. Thank you so much.
When you say internet, you mean off eBay? If its coming from China, guaranteed its NOT OEM (Original). I've replaced a housing on an X1, and it did not fit, the quality of the housing was POOR. I guess it can include the X2.
But if you are super desperate, you could purchasing online, just make sure you know what pieces you are getting, and making sure you actually get all of them.
Honestly, I have not seen any X2 housings yet online for sale. Good luck.
tnx dude.
Nope, it's not from ebay. i forgot the website though. I'm still trying to locate it.
I'll post it here if i got lucky.

Try this:

Same seller, german eBay.
I am curious too what kind of a challenge replacing the entire housing would be.
