I dropped my phone several times...and several pins in battery door are broken and it is loose!!! I don't know why the quality of the battery door is so low!!! Shame on HTC! do you know where can I buy battery door ?( not original battery door )
thank you in advance!
Did you manage to find out where to buy a battery cover?
Mine also was broken, what i did is put a silicone case to hold it in place.
I would like to replace it if I can find a cheap one, or even original one if I have no option.
Hi,
I would need one too. The original one and the rest you find on Ebay are freakin' expensive ($25 or more). This piece of plastic should be no more than $5.
Anyone got a good address to buy the battery door?
P!
Anyone had problems with the battery cover? I took mine off when I first got it and when I tried to put it back, it only clipped into 3 corners, 1 was loose and slide on and off so was never flush.
I've sent it back to Mobilephonesdirect for them to "assess" and see if a replacement is needed. Bloody hope so, its faulty!
Nope, no problems here although i had to open & close the cover several times to reset the device.
Other than finding it the worst battery cover design ever made by HTC, no. I did notice that when putting it back on you put the right side in first and then snap it all down evenly, that it left one corner up and it simply needed a gentle push and it all went flush.
I am concerned about the long term use of the cover, it is difficult to get on and off at best and certainly not designed for ease of use.
The cover is metal but the phone it snaps onto is plastic....and the plastic contact points will wear, that's if the metal battery cover itself doesn't relax its shape a little and get less tight. It seems a bad solution to me but HTC aren't alone in this, I see that battery covers are becoming cheaper and nastier across all brands. At least the HTC cover is metal. I try not to remove my cover...ever.
Yeah, it's a little tight for my liking, if you swap out the sim or memory card a lot it could cause problems. Second battery too.
Hopefully the back case will be available to buy somewhere. It must cost pennies to make.

Yeah, but they'll probably be available on eBay for about £25, despite that.
I thought I was doing something wrong when I could not budge mine.
On a new phone it takes quite a bit of brute force.

Yep, mine stays up on one corner too. Just a little nudge and its back on flush!
Technique is King
Everything requires a technique, then it becomes easy!.
Really all one needs to do is slide your thumbnail under the cover's edge; from one end to the other till there is a millimeter gap, then voila! simply pull off!
If you try to pull it off using the indented 'tab' then good luck to you, Frustration Guaranteed!

Unforyunately my phone already got stuck a couple of times and the only way to bring it to live again was removing the cover and soft reset or remove the battery.
A shame that the reset button is not reachable from the outside. It might be easy to make a small hole in the cover right above the reset button.

I had the same problem with the cover on mine. I found that I must have slightly bent the cover when i first removed it, when i bent it back (to make the fit a bit tighter) it never happend after that.

I will try not too. However if the phone locks up I'll have no choice but to remove the cover and press the red button.
ya i also think the battery cover is design in a wrong way
it took me awhite to open it...
u know i scare i open to hard will spoilt it
Some of the covers are a bit loose. Thank goodness the shop I bought it from, replaced mine for me.
Hey gang,
I got a spare battery and external charger to take with me when I am traveling.
my question is...has anyone broken the battery cover or the 'locking' tabs while removing the door? I am trying to figure out how careful I should be, or should I try to limit the number of times that I open/close the casing?
thanx
mine had the camera lens cover knocked out & split in half a long time ago (the seam between texture & gloss plastic). just ask HTC for a new one on their website. theyll send a new one.
Mine was fine coming on and off. I did break a tab however when I dropped my phone.... but who's fault is that?
Hi,
If anyone has had a go at replacing the battery, I'm interested to hear your experiences. I've had my nexus for just over a year I've noticed that it's been draining a lot quicker than when I first got it. It used to be very solid and I could get a day out of it quite easily. Brand new batteries go for around £20 so I thought why not?
I've ready a few guides on how to do this. The hardest part seems to be prying it away from the advesive holding it to to the casing. If anyone had managed to do this:
1) Was is difficult?
2) Did you replace the adhesive when putting the new battery in?
Cheers!
Greetings,
As we all know every battery is in its half capacity after two or three years. I was wondering if Xiaomi provides battery online and is it possible to replace it in case we need to?
Any idea guys?

Apparently: Yes

But it's probably NOT original...
Yeah, dropped my phone recently and the battery flex got loose inside. Pretty much the simplest battery replacement on a phone. Unscrew bottom screws, remove back (I just did it with sliding my nails along the edge). Then carefully pry the battery out using some soft plastic to remove the adhesive. Replace new battery and good to go!
