You can go to most grocery stores (or heave forbid.....walmart) and by a pack of black RIT dye powder and dye the burgundy battery door jet black. Worked flawlessly for me and never rubbed off or anything!

I took the opportunity to go into one of Sprint repair center and have the Vogue replaced with another vogue. Now, don't get me wrong -- I loved my old vogue which I had been using since it came out (same phone, not a single problem). But it was old and replacing it with another refurbished Vogue will ensure I have a working Vogue for another several years!

The replacement Vogue will arrive this Monday or Tuesday.

Well, to be honest, the rep simply said "I'll order a replacement" which can only mean another Vogue. So I did not bother to ask him if it'll be another Vogue that I'll be receiving.

If they replace it with a Diamond, I'll do everything I can to go to Diamond 2 or back to Vogue. I've heard horrible things about HTC Diamonds.

I have a diamond and after about 6 months I replaced it with the vogue. I like the feel and the screen size and memory much better. I miss wifi but that's the trade off.

I did the same to my older phone.
You have to boil some water and then stir the battery door in w/ the dye.
Stir it for about 10 minutes then rinse in cold water and viola!!
