I don't know if it's just me, but I for sure wouldn't dare to crack open my HOX using brute force like that.

The back cover, cames with out the SPEAKER.

you need to remove the speaker from original back cover, and put it on the new back cover

Would not want to open mine up! either by force or with a tool! but nice to know it can be done if absolutely necessary!! Nice post thanks

I tried to open a faulty one i got from eBay, after removing the back case its such a pain to even remove the motherboard, and even harder to put it back
+when re-assembling you have to plug connectors to both sides of the motherboard

Oh and if anybody opens it up...as soon as you open the back case, the power button and volume button will fall out. Dont loose them! (Also note the power button has a certain orientation)

Hello, it looks like there is some tools to do it more gently ...

Here is one, a "sucker" to remove the screen easily :

Good thing to know that it's possible to open the One X and change case or even the battery ...

What! That's sweet; might purchase one now if it is confirmed working to upgrade the battery in the HOX later on.

Worries me a bit with how easy it was to pop it open! Will have to be more careful...

i'm thinking of switching covers from black to a white one.

a couple of questions;
1) The camera lens glass, is that sticking out of the ring? or is the ring around the glass higher than the glass? (Sorry, i know exactly how to explain this in dutch, not in english)
At the moment my camera-lens glass is sticking out a little bit and it allready is getting scratched up.

2) Do you get the volume / power buttons with the new cover or do you have to re-use the old buttons?

2) the covers cames with the volume and the power buttons

Hi Bro,

would like to know whether do you need to apply any adhesive or glue when assembling th HOX? is it lose without gluing? as what I understand is that there are some use of glue to hold the HOX tighly. Please advise.

Cheers!
