Post here if you put a Telus back on your Sprint Diamond.

Hello,

I'm hoping someone can post a picture or two of the HTC diamond with the Telus back. Someone here posted they ordered one but they didn't include a part number, phone number, department at Telus or price so it seems like they were just posting to pull our legs. I called and e-mailed Telus twice and they told me they don't carry the part.

I'd like to see a picture of the Sprint Diamond but with a Telus back - I'm curious how much of the red will remain.

From what I can tell by looking at a picture of the Sprint Diamond you won't have any red with the Telus back cover on.

Where the red starts on the picture below is where the back cover starts on the Telus Diamond.

Yeah but it was stated somewhere else, that with the back cover off, there is still a red plastic piece around the USB connector at the bottom, so some red will remain...not to mention the stylus is red as well.

I want the prism back

All Sprint gave us was the alternate Touch Diamond back in a weird color.

Also, does anyone else''s stylus feel flimsy? I broke the top off of the one on my Touch, but I can actually feel this one bend when I use it.

Definately.. And becuase you have to tap pretty hard on the screen compared to the touch mine is already slightly warped.

Not a problem for me since I grip it on the metal barrel, but the plastic top is fairly long and a bit too flexible.

Did you ever get the black back cover?

Does anyone know if this will work?

Could I use this to replace the red Sprint HTC Diamond back cover:

Dang - I was hoping someone would post pictures. But then again the Sprint version just shipped for most people (not me - still in warehouse). So hopefully by next week someone will figure a way to get a nice back to put on the Sprint Diamond.

I just sent Telus an email:

"I am not a Telus customer, and live in the US. I am interested in buying a Telus Diamond replacement back and replacement stylus. Can I order them from you? Thanks."

Will post if/when I get a response.
