Does anyone know if the skyrocket 4g otterbox will perfectly fit with our phones? I don't see why it wouldn't, but I would like to confirm.
http://www.otterbox.com/Samsung-Gal...art=2&cgid=samsung-galaxy-s-2-skyrocket-cases
the speaker holes are on opposite sides.
Bummer....thanks for the help

The Samsung Infuse 4G is a near perfect fit with one simple modification. Been using it for a few weeks. I Will take some pictures tomorrow and post.

I am not cutting into an otterbox, and I don't think anyone else would. So keep trying.

There would be two speaker holes then. I would think that the case would be pretty difficult to cut as well. It is not something I would want to experiment with. If you would like to try it, take some pictures and post them I would be pretty interested though.

Sorry if this question seems dumb but looking at the skyrocket, it looks very similar to our T989 phones, and I was wondering if a Skyrocket case would fit our phones? Something similar to this:

please dont misguide people
its very clear that the speaker is on the opposite side of the phone...
will the phone fit into the case... yes
will it work properly... no... your speakerphone will be muffled as hell
It will not fit. My bro has a skyrocket and the skyrocket is way thinner and the speaker is on the other side. Also the 3.5 mm jack is on the opposite side.

Well I haven't tried with primer yet so it's cracking but I have to go buy primer after I'm done with work.... The red was also a fail lol.
I guess I just have to wait to buy some primer

Just to let everyone know that if your planning on doing this you're suppose to sand the silicone first with really fine sandpaper....
Also the primer has to be oil based same with the color.....work both with 2 coats

Wouldn't a clear coat of 3m or scotch guard do the trick without adding any of the "cracking" or stiffness issue ? I'm no expert, but if dust attraction seems to be the problem you would mostly likely just want to seal the original surface.....

Modded the kickstand from Evo to work on my extra back door. Cut a small piece of plastic. Super glued to the underside of kickstand and then super glued to extra backdoor.

I really want to paint the screen bezel and battery covrr of this phone.Completly debrand the back I was thinging of painting it either white or chroming the bezel andback plate and just deal with polishing it every day (although I'm not sure how well the chrome will bend when removing the back plate) so any suggestions shud I or shouldn't I. how should I go about painting it.

Bro... skinit.com ? Why go through all that hassle rather than stick a decal on it? Cmon work smarter not harder.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I think painting it would be cool, as long as you put a nice finish on it to keep it from scratching off.
I'd paint mine a chrome color.

That's cool. I've been thinking about plasti-dipping my back cover. Stuff is great. It's durable yet peels right off if done right. People use it on there cars all the time. I did my hood with it

Great stuff, but do NOT use it on your phone back, it will cause a mess.
I use it all the time to cover my spark plug cables on my Jet Ski, and while it does coat everything with rubber, it is NOT a smooth/polished finish.
I think I might even alumacoat the bezel or even ceramicoat (If I can find someone who still does it)

Voted but I doubt we can beat the One X, also how do we know which OG there are talking about? AT&T is a different design than the others.
They will pick from the top 3 devices, so even if we ended up as #1, there's still a good chance they won't make the case for us.
by the way, we are currently 2nd.
10% off 1st Place. And which phone has been sold more the ATT version or the Sprint one?

I think it's going to be pretty similar to the latter, but it's about finally getting some love for the LGOG and showing support to xda. So just a win, win.
