It would be great if he could get the right covers.

I'd much rather have a replacement that fits than a refund....
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
He stresses that the matte one is for US only and the Europe one is the glossy one. He says he has the whole US matte housing, and keeps asking me if I want to change the midplate so that the matte cover will fit.

Change the housing and risk my warranty?? No way! He has ignored my refund requests 3 times already. My last message to him was to cooperate. Awaiting reply.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] awf:
I should have waited but it's already shipped so thanks for sharing the info next time be careful to post pictures without even owning the phone. :p

So it wont fit? I have the Europe version see link below...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...IA&itu=FICS%2BUFI%2BUA%2BIA%2BUCI&otn=4&ps=10
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] awf:
Yep but maybe he learned a wise lesson only to post what he self has confirmed ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
My bad.. looks like my photos lured more ppl to buy from him..

When you say U have the Europe version.. meaning? I'm getting confused now. Are you saying gsm4world sent you the correct Europe matte cover?

Lastly..

He agrees to refund:

I'm gonna send it back to him tomorrow!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] awf:
See answer :(

matte battery cover won’t fit your HTC D2

because , europ version ...my matte battery cover for US version

do u want glossy black ?? we can return and exchange

glossy black fit for your phone

if u don't want glossy black , pls return and refund

billy
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
Allrighty..

Lets just keep in touch and makes sure he refunds.

Gdnite.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] awf:
My answer ...

Thank you for your quick reply, however I want a matte replacement that fits or a refund.

You could have informed me before shipping, because it could have avoided a lot of extra cost and time! (you shipped to Europe ;))

But as you probably are aware of that the return charges is almost more expensive as the cover itself.

Would have been grateful to have this information upfront to avoid any inconvenience for both of us.

The strange thing is that the phone is in the GSM version (worldwide) same and CDMA (US) version.

So it looks like you have the wrong covers because from the GSM version the housing should be the same!

How can we solve the issue?

Because I don’t want to make extra cost for something you advertise as OEM cover for all HTC D2 models.

Thank you for your support and understanding in advance,

Kind regards,
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] jeutie:
Yes I learned, But in fact, everything was confirmed mate ;-)

1) I've got my Matt cover from HKbestdigital, which I posted a link to,

Then people said he didn't ship Matt covers anymore...

2) Someone bought from GSM4World and it was Matt

Then I provided a link to GSM4World, Now they don't ship it anymore either, Or they shipped a faulty product

I think I could score another Matt since HKbestdigital is shipping Matt covers again.

Anyhow, Again I am sorry to all who got a faulty cover :-(

If you get your refund (and otherwise make a complaint at paypal) click on the link from MasK, At this very moment, They ship Matt covers again. :)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] awf:
Don't be worried we all should have confirmed, but that link is a complete housing :rolleyes:

Will this backcover fit jeutje? because see Q/A and he says that there are two versions?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] jeutie:
I can say that various people who bought the full housing from 'hkbestdigital' are Matt,

Now the person selling isn't that good in English... but the full housing fits.

And there are indeed 2 versions of the TD2:

The GSM version (Europe) & CDMA (USA)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] awf:
That means you have to replace the whole housing because the midplate is different?

So you will loose warranty...

Cheers,
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] jeutie:
No... That means if you order the full housing, you'll get a backcover that will fit the TD2 if the backcover doesn't fit, It's the wrong product, as some people in this thread have experienced.

So be carefull.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] awf:
Indeed not worth the risk so going for a refund. :(
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] WMguy:
Got mine today from gsm4world and it does not fit.:( Has anyone sent it back yet?

Guess I'm heading to the hardware store for a can of matte transparent paint...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] gst28:
Me too. Got mine today from gsm4world and doesn't fit. It look like the left hand has the correct notches but the right hand side notches are different.

I sent gsm4wold a message and he said that the version he sent is US. He also said to send it back for a refund. Strange how they have US versions but the US version has not been released.

Prior to sending it back should I open a dispute on ebay? Once in the past I hadn't received a item and didn't open a dispute until after 60 days and couldn't do anything about it. Thanks.

So what is the best way
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
Oh my.. I feel ya man.

I hope he refunds you the shipping cost as well.

I'll be shipping mine out pretty soon.. I hope it doesn't cost much from here.

As for the availability of the correct stuff.. so far I've only seen sellers with full housing only. Lemme summarize:

eshoptradehk - US $45.99 + shipping

Members have bought from him, his pics show the correct housing. Messaged him yesterday, but no reply yet.

http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/ws/eBayISAPI...K:MEWNX:IT&item=120407614237#ebayphotohosting

EDIT: Seller confirmed that it's glossy

hk-bestdigital09 - US $59.99 + shipping

Jeutie got it from this guy. From the curves on his pic, it seems to be the correct one. Pretty responsive, but doesn't know his stuff (GSM/US version)

http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/HOUSING-COVE...3.l1177&_trkparms=240:1318|301:1|293:1|294:50

globalshining - EUR 36.00 - free shipping

Although the pic shows glossy cover, one member here got a matte cover from him (need to check tru the forum pages).

http://cgi.ebay.com.sg/Cover-Gehaeu...66:2|39:1|72:1229|240:1318|301:1|293:1|294:50

EDIT: Seller confirmed that it's glossy

HK-bestdigital seems to be pretty expensive for me, being abt S$20 more than the other 2. Let me get the refund first.. then i'll decide.

Again.. I must stress that you must get whatever information you want (pictures, etc) from the seller before committing. Lets not make the same mistakes. :o

Jeutie, stop beating yrself over it. It's cool. ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] teryoXin:
I have already posted here that I asked both sellers eshoptradehk and globalshining. And both replyed that they have GLOSSY back cover!!!

Only hk-bestdigital09 replyed that "This cover the back cover is matt". But I doubt again... is it worth to pay 62$ and receive some fake!?!

Yesterday I asked HTC Support about whether manufactured by HTC original alternative matt back cover or not. But no answer till now - usually it takes 2-3 day.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] teryoXin:
I`ve just send a letter to hk-bestdigital09 where ask him about some detailed pictures of housing and explain him that he can get a goot profit when give us assurance that housing is original, matt and fits to europe version.

And I lean towards the view that better and easier buy ZAGG full protection and use only back cover protection film! ZAGG is approved seller!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] kly:
My backcover from GSM 4 World has arrived ... I'm going to get it tomorrow.

I'll post back if it fits or not.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
Thanks for the initiative!

Yes, you're right.. I got replies from both the rest, and yes, they're glossy.

Let's see hk-bestdigital's reply and i'll decide if its worth the money. If not.. yea.. Zagg or gMasK (http://gmask.com.sg/)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] teryoXin:
So, I recieved reply from HTC Support!!!

My question was:

And answer is:

so further everyone must decide on his own account whether buy "like" OEM HTC housing/ cover or not!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] harolds:
I got the back cover that doesn't fit, my comment is I also used the suggestion about using clear matte acrylic spray paint on my original back cover: and there is no difference in the feel. So save your money and the hassle.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] WMguy:
Did anyone return to gsm4world yet? He says to return for refund but he doesn't give any info on where to send it. A day between each email is annoying too...
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] NeoGreendawg:
I sent it back today.

As always, you can find the sender's address on the envelope.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
I did ask him for the return address to be sure and he did give.

After sending the stuff back 2 days ago, I passed him the tracking number and he acknowledged that he will refund.

Now just waiting for the package to reach him.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] awf:

I know,

Billy said it will fit. But i will loose my warranty.

I like to live life on the wild side:D:D:D

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
Cool.. whatever works for ya. I would wanna keep the warranty coz I can resell it. With the rate HTC is coming up with devices, I get poisoned every 6mths or so.. lol!

Do post pics once ya changed the housing.

Btw, gsm4world refunded me already.. and I just ordered gadgetShieldz. Will apply for the back cover ;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] teryoXin:
Thank you for the link, I just ordered too. It costs quite nothing!!! 5 euro and free sheeping!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] Fatguy:
Gadget Shieldz

I had also just order from this Gadget Shieldz....

The price is only USD6.99 (S$10.30).... as compare to USD24.99 for Invisible Shield.....

I was quoted for a Zagg Invisible Shield by a re-seller in Singapore for S$38.

Another $10 for the installation .........

Total : S$48

I hope this Gadget Shieldz will work well.......

Anyone who had try Gadget Shieldz pls kindly share he result........

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] receand:
Hi Richard!

Did you get your piece? How is it? Is the matte cover what you have exepected? Did it fit the phone? Please, share.

Thanks!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] daffie:
I just got this backcover delivered. Looks and feels very good. The backcover is much less slippery than the original. But it's definately not as matte as I had thought it would be. Almost as shiny as the original backcover of HTC.

http://cgi.ebay.nl/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...K:MEWNX:IT&item=120407614237#ebayphotohosting

Q for the people who ordered the matte version...is your really matte, or also kinda shiny like the original?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
Strange.. a couple of us had already confirm with this seller of yours that it's the glossy version. So I suppose the cover ya got is also a fingerprint magnet?

Anyways... it's pretty clear that there are 2 versions around. Whether or not it's a HTC original.. is a different story:

Silver front / glossy back

http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-HTC-TOUCH-D...trkparms=65:12|66:2|39:1|72:1205|293:1|294:50

Glossy black front / matte back

http://cgi.ebay.com/OEM-HTC-TOUCH-D...trkparms=65:12|66:2|39:1|72:1205|293:1|294:50

This seller techzonefourworld bothered to give a more detailed description of the 2 different kinds in his shop.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
Oooh.. I just got ma gadgetShieldz.. That makes 4 days to ship for me. Schweeet.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] cityhunterx:
How does the Gadget Shieldz compare to the ZAGG, Used to have the Zagg but HTC replaced the device and I wasnt prepared to pay a large amount of money again.

Thanks
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] ayl:
So, is it possible someone here who has received the proper matt finished back cover and everything is OK to post the right link for order.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] teryoXin:
Yesterday I got my Gadget Shieldz. Shipment took 3 days!!!

I have appleid only for back cover and front bottom part.

Result u can see in attached photos and IMHO it is the best value for money!! As u can see there are some "waves"...it seems that I have got them while I removed bubbles. So my advice - apply it carefully without any force!!!

And I am very happy to get this Shield for less then 5 euro - man can buy it every 3-6 monthes!!!;)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
Thanks teryoXin for the pics!

You'll have to wait a little more time for the waves to disappear I suppose.

Do U still have a fingerprint problem on the back after applying Shieldz?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] teryoXin:
No, I think that these waves are result of my strong hands! )))

And did you apply yours one? Let us see!!!

About fingerprint problem on the back...it seems its gone! But now when I take my HTC in hand, I feel it like cheap gadget! :confused:

In ideal case I would buy matt back cover....but unfortunately I think it is no more possible!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] teryoXin:
...and I would like to add...

DON`T MIND MY PHOTOS with "waves"!!!

JUST APPLY FILM CAREFULLY!!! AND YOU WILL GET EXCELLENT QAULITY!!!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Accessories] MasK:
Oh.. I get it. The waves U got are the result of excessive stretching of the film, I think.

Gadget feels cheap? Well, that's subjective. I have held a touch Cruise with Zagg, and felt pretty ok, although the "cheapness" feeling was at the side of my head.

I havent applied mine yet as I still havent gotten my device yet. Prolly next week. I'm waiting for my telco to send me some vouchers hopefully :D

Synchronization (mail, calendar, tasks, etc.) can be done automatically by having :

1) an exchange server

or

2) outlook installed on your computer

How did you get your phone stuck in the spl? Did you try to flash it? If not, check to see if the camera button is stuck against the casing.

If the camera button isnt stuck, you'll have to remove the microsd and write the DREAIMG.NBH file using a card reader.

pull the battery just to be safe, pop battery back in.

make sure your holding the camera button down first, THEN press power, keep holding till the gray screen pops up.
