Ok guys....heres the question as stated above, there is a tiny hole on the bottom right hand corner of the phone, on the side, slightly to the right of the stylus?
basically, I broke my glass a few days ago....i got attacked by a very vicious ****ing dog....and my phone fell during that ordeal, and the glass cracked, ive since then replaced it....but you guessed it...i accidentally cut this sensor here on the Menu/Back key ribbon assembly...Ive noticed NOTHING absolutely NOTHING different in Operation, then again, im not sure what the sensor was for, i did see somewhere the phone is equipped with a Barometric sensor, maybe this is it? in that case i could care less, if i didnt have to take the glass off id replace it, but unless its important im not going to, but can anyone tell me what it is for sure? in the picture i posted its to the right of the back key.

Cool thank you much bud, well, luckily i have no use for it, just a pointless feature for me, but i would like it working someday again, but im not removing the glass again and putting more LOCA glue just to get that working, unfortunately the stupid menu/back button ribbon is under the glass.
but thank you for the info glad i was right

Has anyone here noticed a slight hump on the rear case it location is central on the spine about 2 thirds of the way down. It is a above a recess on the inside of the case which accommodates the plastic retaining lug for the SIM card. Its very minor, I only noticed it when I was rubbing my finger over the case, I just wanted to check with other people to eliminate the possibility its a defect on mine.
Other than this its the best smart-phone I have ever used, well worth the wait as I am a Handtec customer.
Thanks for checking
Have it too, but it is really difficult to spot.
I cannot see it with my eyes, basically only feel and you have to be very careful to notice it even then.
I can't feel or see this if it is there.
only found it because you made me search for it
wish i didnt read this thread. now im going to look for it, find it, and be displeased by it.
Not on mine...
i noticed it the other day as well
it is there but I don`t care.

neither do I, as other people have said it very very minor.
It's a great handset I'm very happy with it and will be more happy when the official screen protectors are available.
if it wasn't there the cover would have to be a couple of mm thicker to accommodate the recess on the inside to clear the plastic lug. I think, on reflection, that this was a good idea on HTCs part.

Maybe you have particularly fat SIM cards?
I went to pull my inc2 out my pocket about an hour ago, only to drop it onto a tile floor, shattering the digitizer. The device doesn't have insurance, so I figured I'll replace the digitizer myself. Has anyone had to do this before? Are there any good guides, as well as a quality digitizer online? I guess it's back to the eris for a while....
Sorry to hear about your phone :/ ...
Here is a guide i found on how to change the digitizer.. click here

Did this a while back. Used the YouTube guide. Bought a digitizer off Ebay which worked great. be aware that if shipping from China it's gonna take longer (duh)
If you have any questions don't be afraid to ask.
The process up to heating and removing the digitizer/lcd is cake. The hearing and removing the digitizer and especially lcd is tough and scary. Take your time, the glue is really strong. I used a heat gun but I think a hair dryer might work better since it doesn't get it hot as quick.. Also make sure no dust is under the digitizer after you apply it and don't use any liquid glue/silicone to glue down the lcd/digitizer.
Oh I forgot, when removing the digitizer, be mindful of the lights that light up the bottom buttons they tend to stick to the digitizer so careful that you don't bend/break them. Other than that you should be ok

Hey guys I need to replace my face plate (see picture) and was looking for a guide on how to do it. All the ones that I found are for changing the whole screen, or is it more or less the same thing as doing that? Thanks

You are going to have a super tough time doing this (I'm not even sure if it is possible). The display is physically bonded to the faceplate.

Well that sucks.. can anyone else confirm this?
That's how it was on the SGS2, so it wouldn't surprise me.
For the first time ever, I cracked my phones screen. Sucks it was my damn SGS3. I need to replace mine.

That sucks man, I just got some paint peeling off at the bottom of mine, bothering the hell out of me. Would hate to spend 200$ just to fix that.
Yes the screen is glued to faceplate which is glued to the digitizer, this is my understanding at least. Good luck Bro.

Yeah it's a pain. I'd rather use insurance to fix this one. It's the same price and I get a brand new phone.

Hello guys,
These days a spot appeared on the screen of my device and I decided to open it for cleaning thinking of humidity between the touch and the lcd but when I realized that the spot was even in lcd. Done a cleaning with cotton moistened and with a little pressure on the screen apparently had resolved but the spot came back in a larger area now.
The touch works normally and the image also appears normal in the spot area that is more visible when the screen is off.

No...Why?
Looks like moisture, if you already opened it, open it again and allow it to dry.
Yup moisture or you squished the LCD lol

Hi Folks, looking for some help after I just about managed to replace a cracked screen & frame (I fell on top of my phone during a mountain bike descent into Glen Doll, Scotland as an aside!).
After painstakingly taking the cover, mid-frame, battery, motherboard etc out and putting them back together, I thought it was a minor miracle the phone worked again. The only issue I am having is that the screen switches off and stays off while making any calls, no matter whether I hold the phone to my ear or in front of my face.
Is this a proximity sensor issue? If so where exactly is it located and how can I check whether it's either damaged or not properly connected? Thanks in advance for any help
Sounds like it, Does you screen auto brightness work?
Its the little red sensor just under the top speaker on the right.
Nope, auto brightness isn't working either.
Do you know whether the sensor is soldered on or whether it can just be removed & replaced? The sensor seems to be in place but guessing it's not properly connected

I had the same problem as you and I think you also forgot to put the cover of proximity/light sensor.

Exactly the same problem on mine. Sadly threw away the part. Does anyone know the partnumber of this or where to buy it in Europe?
