Anyone have a white galaxy nexus with a white decal on the screen to make the whole device white? I wanted to see how it would look

Don't have but think that would look slick and would spike my interest if available.

Sorry that I can't find it directly but someone has posted it before in a thread in the accessories section. I believe the thread had something to do with skins and towards the end of the thread someone posted it. Its been awhile though. I'll post it if I find it . Looked good.

I know of a few sites that offer white decals to go on the front of the phone but unfortunately though you would have to buy the back side too. So if you got a white phone already then you would have an extra skin laying around.

A couple that pop into my head are:
http://www.skinit.com <~ they deal with the verizon models I found out the hard way, but I believe you have to make it as a custom skin so it may cost you some more money.
http://www.decalgirl.com/skins/95096/Samsung-Galaxy-Nexus-Skin-Solid-State-White <~ the gsm model fits here. I am not sure with them though if it has a screen protector built into the decal or not. I have never ordered from them before.
Edit: It has been confirmed in the thread that it in fact does NOT include a screen protector.

I purchased the white TPU bumper that was $5 for the Verizon GNEX since the white housing is not available yet... also purchased the LTE white battery cover on eBay along with the white decal that is similar to the one above but that is the only item that I am waiting for to arrive since the owner took a couple days longer to ship from south Korea but will post up pics when the decal arrives but so far I like the black and white two tone look

Btw did you get the all white bumper with the white rubber too, or black? I was wondering if that white rubber gets discolored easily.

to my discovery the white decal does cover the led notification light, b/c the company decided not make it an edge to edge decal, thus not leaving them with much room for a whole for the led light. I was going to post pics but the bumper had messed up an waiting on a replacement.
Decalgirl does NOT include a screen protector, but they are high quality skins I will be buying a white skin from them when my white nexus comes next week
Thanks for the idea OP haha

well here are the pics, finally. the only downfall is the black rubber part which defeats the purpose of having a white phone. I saw an all white bumper but had to be bought in bulk.

I'm really thinking about getting the extended one. But I use a case so you wouldn't see it. So I don't know if I should

I definitely would have bought this if I saw it 2 days ago! Already got another one. Looks nice though!
To me it looks to fake, looks photoshoped anyways I'll wait till somebody buys it and post pictures of it.
Good luck to anyone who buys it
Thanx for sharing

Looks extremely fake to me. Look at the white, off colored blocks around the logos...

Very nice! Does it have the same mesh texture as the original? Or is it smooth? Hard to tell in pic.
My standard GSM white cover is smoother.

Sure I can post pictures later after class (around 10 pm EST)
But if you must know now, it's not worth it. The cover is designed for the short, fat batteries that Verizon uses and no amount of trimming I did was able to overcome that fact. The top and bottom will just never be flush at the same time because the battery in the GSM version extends up higher than the Verizon version. Also it is a tad wider than the GSM back so it needs to be shaved down there as well. I can get it to stay on but not in a way that I deem satisfactory because in all honesty I think it looks like ass when it's sticking up partly. Also the cover looks and feels like it should be smooth, slick plastic but it's just smooth. It's a different texture.
I painted my original back cover white with semi-gloss spray paint and it looks halfway decent. It fits on correctly and feels decent enough.
I also ordered an extra extended back and a white decal, so I'll make a big thread comparing all three options when I get those
I order the extended cover got it for $9.50 will post pictures of it when it gets here. I have a VZW GNex

So basically you got the LTE Exntd back cover to try it on your GSM version?
Also so these cases are legit? On ebay the item picture looked to fake to me, like they were photoshoped or had an white sticker on top of a cheap looking cover.

Yes that is what I did. We don't have our own white extended back so I tried a few things, and have a few more to try. Yes the back cover is legit as far as I'm concerned. It's branded and everything. It has no texture though, but my stock GSM white battery cover had less texture.
I'm hoping is legit. The Sellers says it is so let's hope. He marked it as shipped. As soon as I get it I will post pictures of it.

Where can i buy original back cover pebble blune.?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I actually made a thread on this a few days ago.
Some people said they saw them for sale at CPW, but I'm in the USA so I can't check there.
If you find one, please do post back here, as I really want an original battery door as well. Thanks!
I'm looking for them too
For an extra? why would you want another one? incase it gets scratched?
I've got the white version and I would like the back part of the blue one just to make it a bit different fromo others.
I thought I saw some on ebay, but something to remember is that if you want nfc to work, don't get metal ones. I would defintely go plastic until people have experience with the nfc issues.
My is sharp on one side. I wolud like to buy New but cant find any. Is no one seiling it?

From what I've seen in videos, the flip cover is not the same shade of blue as the original battery door.
I would pay $40 for an (original) blue door.. anyone want to sell one?!

Lol, and go without a battery door?
If I were you, you should check the thread where some of the guys are buying up the different back covers, and PM them. Good luck!
I'd def. buy one, as soon as samsung itself sells them. Anyone think they will?
Ebay has them
I've been looking and finally found them on ebay.
I can't post a link (new to the site), but use this search phrase in ebay:
battery cover samsung galaxy s3 white
Scroll down until you see a thumbnail with a red border and the word "original" plastered on it.
But it's for a white one. Not sure if they have the pebble blue... I did a quick search and came up empty. But I think it'll look nice with a white back, too! (Saw a youtube clip of a pebble blue SGS3 with a white back)
Just received from 2buya ebay seller a Pebble blue original battery cover for my white Samsung Galaxy S3.
I'm really happy with this purchase.
Saw some original Samsung replacement battery covers in CPWH.
Hi,
I own a blue Galaxy S3. Unfortunatelly, it fell down and hit a metal case with one of its sides.-> Glas broken.
I looked around a bit and found the possibility to buy the front glas as a replacement part. Did any of you allready bought one of those and is it the same quality as original?
The second question: If I have to replace the screen, I may also replace the complete housing to mod my device to a different color (Ive seen blue white and red at ebay). Do you know, where or when I may find the 4 housing parts for grey or black edition?
Thanks,
cmoe
Black and titanium housing here. $269.99

As the title says, genuine Samsung Book Cover white or gray for Note 10.1 is in stock at Newegg for $35 each (+$5.99 shipping).
If you have a Fry's store nearby, they match Newegg prices as long as the item is in stock, to avoid shipping charge..If you happen to be a Shoprunner member, you get 2-day free shipping.
I already spent $40 for a mint one... damn. Lol

Elusive little critter. Saw $59 grey one at Fry's today and knew MacMall has it listed for $27 but not in stock. No one had in stock not even Newegg so the best I could do was price match to Best Buy for $49 since they don't show stock status. At least now my Note 10.1 doesn't feel vulnerable and naked. Like it but very minimal (overpriced) for even $30.
Thanks for the heads up. Can I check if the book cover comes with an original Samsung screen protector that is matte or anti-glare? I've been searching for this information for the longest time but can't find an answer.

It doesn't come with a screen protector.
That's what I thought as well, until a local Sasung customer staff told me the book cover comes with a screen protector.

For the MSRP of $60, you'd think that Samsung would have better quality control on these. The case I bought from Fry's (after price matching to Newegg) has nice bubbles on both sides of the case (the front flip; the backplate it fine). It appears that the bonding between the top material and the underlying hard plastic (or whatever) wasn't done properly at certain spots. You can press down and move the bubbles around, but you can't get those two layers to stick.
I went to Fry's to exchange it yesterday. The customer service was great and let me open another case, and it had the same problem. He went ahead and opened a white one, and that one was perfect. I'm hoping that this was just a bad batch and will be waiting for Fry's to receive additional stock to exchange it.
Sorry... double post.
