Hi I bought a used AT&T HTC One X off craigslist and repaired the screen. During the installation somehow knocked off the connector that pushes down on the power button area, and the only way to turn it on is by touching something metal to it.. Is there anywhere u can get these tiny caps/circuits? (the small button that makes contact with the metal power button area) not the case button* I don't really want to have to replace the whole flex ribbon cable if not a must.. thanks so much in advanced!:fingers-crossed: (I think from searching around the web these are called *Dome Switches*

They won't sell just the button cap but that's all he lost. They're used for volume rocker and power button.

They are all over ebay. Mine just popped off last night :( Seems like defect! I was able to use an exacto and a tiny piece of tape to place it and reinstall the unit in to the back and its working but I am afraid it will slip out one day and no good :(

Did you also loose it? because if you just knocked it off, why not just put it back on? :p

Hello, sorry I'm late getting back, I was on a trip to the philippines. Would you happen to have 3 of those caps?? I would gladly pay u for those and shipping if you have them.. I ordered a set of the flex cables...and of course they ended up being for the tegra 3 version and do not fit ($50) down the drain :/ Thanks for the reply.

    Your best bet is to buy a really messed up HOX for cheap and take the whatever you need from it.
