Used Rust-O-Leum paint for Wicker materials
2 coat primer and 3 coat gloss white..

I personally dig it.

Cool!! That is really good work... Nice keyboard as well

Excellent job! Have you considered putting the words on the backdoor a different color? Just a suggestion

Meh. Why don't you just buy an iPhone if you want a white phone..

Looks nice!

Sweeeeeeeeeet, make a video next time.

I like the white paint....howd u paint the inside of the phone??

Looks awesome but wouldn't have the stones to do it myself.

Not a fan of the red but you got my respect for working that hard to make your phone unique and turning it into something you like. Very cool.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

I'm not a fan of the skin either, but that's removable I suppose.
Why the paint for wicker? RustOleum makes paint for plastics, surely they have white.
Did you disassemble it to paint it? Tell us what you went through to do it.

White is nice... get rid of the red.

**** the haters man, I think what you did is wicked awesome! Looks great man.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

For some reason I was thinking you got yourself a OEM white ET4G... like how you can get a white Galaxy S 2.
Anyway, I like the white but if you don't prep things right the paint will chip off and look like crap very quickly. I can see that happening really fast on small items, using incorrect paint types, and which aren't properly prepped or painted.
So it looks nice now but I imagine it's going to look like crap really soon...

hahahaha ....WORD
but the red carbon is kinda cool, i would have done it on black.....i mean its unique at least, and if the op likes it its his phone....
but iv always personally thought that the whole white phone thing was verry girly.
What would have been really tight is a clean matte gray, almost primer color but cleaner looking with black carbon over it... that woulda been suhhhhweet.

Home button changing colors....

anyone else notice this? i noticed yesterday my home button is now purple instead of blue.

It's the same pebble blue color. The only difference is that the home button is not behind the gorilla glass so it has that opaque color contrast

no. its purple.

Are we going to argue colours all day, it shouldn't change colour maybe in different lightings it looks different but mine has always had a purplish colour to it.

Why not post a picture instead of arguing?

I returned my pebble blue for the white because of this

Do you work with oils or solvents? Like a paint thinner or for that matter whiskey.

The pen is BLUE! The pen is Bluuuuuuee!
But that button is purple. I have the pebble blue and had never noticed it before until SOMEONE pointed it out (point) .Mine looks like yours.
On closer inspection kitkit201 is also correct. The color of the metal used on the bezel seems to be impregnated as that purple color. The Gorilla glass changes it's appearance once applied. The button however is raw so no glass, no coating, no love and therefore will look different much like stained wood when compared to unstained wood.

I'm the po-po so no solvents....lol

Mines turning purple too. But I'm not really worried about it though

Mine doesn't change colors. White SGS3.

Most likely natural greases/dirt in our fingers that over time this might just happen?
Iunno. Just a thought?

It could be worse. The whole phone could turn purple haha.

My WHITE Sprint Galaxy Nexus :D

Yes, this is my white galaxy nexus. It is not painted or using a skin, it is the GSM white housing installed on a Sprint Nexus. After seeing the white version of the galaxy nexus, I just knew I needed one. Now this one is a bit of a hack job as I was just learning what would be necessary, and it took some pretty heavy modification, but as soon as I get a little more time and spare change I will be buying one more housing to do a cleaner job. Until I start the cleaner modification, I will be perfecting the fit on this one so I can have the best end result possible. As of this time I will not be doing a how-to as much of a hack job as it is, but when doing the cleaner conversion I plan to take some pictures to help some of you other daring DIY'ers out there. This post is just to share/show off my white galaxy nexus haha, and to show that it can be done! And now, a few pictures of my baby:

amazing wish my gnex was white

eww!

nice!

Looks kinda cool, but reminds me of some old iOS device or something. :/

You should get the Fantom glass screen protector in white to make the front white too. Personally I can't stand white phones with black faces. But that's just me.

Wish i could do that too, would love to have my Nexus in white...

Its a stormtrooper communicator

I so totally wanna do with the my Sprint LTE Galaxy Nexus. Would have to ditch my otterbox though. Awesome work!!

I like it, but wouldn't care for the dirty factor it might take on. I prefer colors that hide blemishes and what not.

dude, I hate You.. I want Your phone now...

Would you care to elaborate on how you had to modify the housing?

Great!

I'm certain you can find it on eBay eventually. I've seen them for the s3 and even custom ones. (All it is is a painted white one lol)

haha! I know they will probably be available soon! The white ones painted are from this one company on eBay. While they are painted, they sure do look great! Not sure it will last long though

The nic epar tof this device is how large the back cover is. It covers the entire back of the device rather than just having a small battery door.
So you can get one of the new colored back covers an dsnap it on in 2 seconds to totally change the look of the phone. (Provided the new colored back goes well with the old colored front you have. Fortuantely just about everything goes with white and grey.)

Nice Info.... Now can change my Samsung handset. Lovely colors........

Those all look really cool.
I don't understand why manufactures don't make different colors available in the first place. It's just a tiny bit of plastic under the front glass and on the back, and it would probably drive sales for people who are on the edge of a purchase. I would think this would be a strong selling point.

S4 Black Edition?

Any news on when this will be released? I'm actually interested in this getting this over the S5 if the price is right.

I think AT&T got it on black or dark gray... they got more color selection than T-Mo we just just got white and blue?? At least those are the only 2 options give to me when I bought mine..

The 2 colors available to T-Mobile are Black Mist and White Frost. There's also a Blue Arctic color, which I think is exclusive to Best Buy.
Edit: There's also Electric Blue and Aurora Red. Neither are available on T-Mobile.

Blue was exclusive to AT&T. Purple was exclusove to Sprint. And brown, for some odd reason, was the exclusive to Verizon.
AT&T might have gotten a red one too.
All 4 carriers got black and white from day 1.
You can get the colored battery doors from any other color and put them on yours. My black t mobile S4 has a Sprint purple back.
Here's them all to see...

Since forever. The Black Mist version, just kind of looks like a blue when it is next to another black object. I used to think it was blue also until I read the box for the Black Mist version.

Now apparently there are a few more colors that have come out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2646803
And one of them is DEEP BLACK. Which is somehow different than Black Mist. I dunno...I always thought black was black. I mena I'm looking at my Black Mist phone right now and it looks plenty black to me. But what do I know?
