When I first got the phone, I honestly thought I was going to break the cover off as I tried to get it off. I didn't luckily, but mine just hasn't fit back in quite right. The side that stays connected(via the plastic 'string') doesn't lie flat like it did when I first got it, no matter how hard I press it back in. Not a big deal, just annoying.
Ahh yeah same here I actually am considering jusr cutting it off too when I open it I always think I'm gonna rip the phone apart. My htc mogul and htc touch pro were designed with no cover on the charge port and I had no issue with dust. I'm not spending money on a wireless charger (with a wire) also I had to cut my thumb nail to use the keyboard lol.
Don't cut the darn thing off or you'll leave a piece of plastic loose inside. I opened mine to charge the other day and tipped the phone sideways and the door fell off on its own. It just has a tiny enlargement on the end of the plastic string to anchor it inside. Very flimsy. I can put it back in but it never holds anymore and falls out again. The door does seal but doesn't lay flush anymore. Surely someone has a baggie of these stupid things laying around a warehouse somewhere!! Sprint was no help to me when went in to the store. They said it was broken by my "abuse". Um...sorry, I've had the phone just under a month and have always babied that door. Sprint emailed that I should talk to Palm. That's all well and good but I refuse to spend $15 for a phone call to talk to them. I'm happy to pay for a handful of replacement doors but need to figure out an email address to request them first.
