Default HTC Pure Back Cover

Anyone has an idea of where I can find a replacement back cover (battery cover) for the HTC Pure? I've been looking all over the web without any success.

I would like to know the answer too. Something that is matte finish and doesn't attract fingerprints would be a great seller.

I ended up calling HTC directly, and they said that there are no accesories, including the battery cover, for the HTC Pure, yet. They recommended to check with them in a couple of weeks.

I would think that this kind of thing would be available through a third-party. Just a matte finish back cover would be great because it would prevent the fingerprints. I'm sure something like this will come out soon, maybe with an extended battery too.

I found the cover at http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=220505056582.

Bought one at 7 november and got it delivered 5 days ago.

You mean this one fits on the Pure?

That battery cover is for the original HTC Diamond 2. The HTC Pure's back cover doesn't extend the full size of the phone.

There are hard covers for the Pure available at this poitn. It doesn't replace the back cover, which is what I would like. Instead, they cover the whole phone. Check out the list on eBay.

I just ordered one that is black and rubberized. Might be the texture I'm looking for on the back, but I hope it doesn't add too much size to the phone.

I have a spare OEM At&t HTC Pure battery cover. Let me know if you or anyone interested.

Make a reasonable offer and we can work something out.
