Wizard parts, where to buy

[omalak]

im looking for someone to direct me to a place where i can get parts for my Wizard..


I dropped my phone the other day, and the power button seems to have broken off the circuit board, this has happened before as well i just resoldered itmyself, but it has come to the point where the leads are about to fall off the switch..

And recently i also ended up breaking the rocker switch thats required to adjust volume on the phone and the speaker.

I need a place to get those 2 switches.. anyone have any idea where to look!!

thought about a new phone, but i just cant live without a touch screen and keyboard now :( i want my wizard back up and working :(


Thanks

First...help save my phone is the LAST thing you want to type if you want help. We will post simply to tell you to read the damned stickies. I am assuming then, that your phone was not insured. If it was in fact insured, it probably can be replaced using insurance, or I'd suggest ebay or craig's list. Good luck finding parts.

whoa sorry man.. i was just having a little fun.. didn't mean to be demanding there or anything..

I did have a look in some of the stickies, and faqs infact i posted in the buy sell trade broken thread too.. i thought id just ask again if anyone has had any luck buying parts from other sources..

Yes it is not insured..

and HTC america doesnt seem to have the parts.

that's all no need to get angry.. i apologize for my topic

:)

I apologize...I was not angry, I simply was trying to say that we get so many "help..." threads, that often they get passed over, or looked at simply for us to say RTF stickies. I think you will get a better chance of help for parts if you topic'd it as such.

I still think that barring the busted wiz thread, ebay or craig's list would be your best bet. Also, you may check HoFo...they used to have a thread for folks selling busted devices.

oh ok... sorry about that then :)


yeah ive ben making the nightly rounds on hofo, craigs rfd, ebay not much luck the ones people are selling are working condition lol and a good chunk of change. I guess ill keep scouring.. if i find nothing i might just head over to a few small electronic shops and se if i can find a different switch to replace it with..

honeslty i was checking out a few other phones, and for those on a budget, feature wise you just cant beat the wizard. i dont think i could ever go back to a non touch screen phone.
