its given as out of stock

[GeoffH]

contact them by email and see when it will be in stock - don't forget this is a very new device

In the meantime keep it away from water   as you would any other mobile phone

One of the reasons I bought the chaging dock was because I didn't like opening the usb cover multiple times per day as it wouldn't last and eventually lose it's water seal

I think it's good that there is a source for these parts and not too expensive - they even sell the LCD assembly which is good

i should buy tat flap and paste it wit tat white colour flap inside ah?

[GeoffH]

not sure what you mean but yes just buy the new flap and keep the phone away from water in the mean time - you may not be able to fit the the little tie that holds it when open - not sure

you need to see when you get it if the old one pulls out with gentle force and you can push the new one in - never done it

Just briefly skimmed this thread....hmm if the flaps were to get damaged...I dunno how you'd replace them tbh, those white/translucent attachements would have to be secured pretty tightly no? =/ Wouldnt want to damage the phone.

[GeoffH]

right - it is obviously possible to replace them since you can order them - I know how I would do it but it would be a good idea for anyone ordering to ask for possible fitting options from the supplier - that's what I would do

[TheEntelexia]

yep couldn't agree more geoffh. I wouldn't dare to install them myself without knowing I'm doing it correctly basically because if you don't, and you wet that phone...bye bye $$ lol

the only issue is how to attach the plastic tether
