So I don't know how many people is late for the FFC party. I didn't jump on the bandwagon at the time because I didn't see a need for it. However now when Skype is supporting video calling and other fun things you can do with the camera in ICS, I wanted to get one. However when going to www.globaldirectparts.com now it will tell you that they only sell to repair companies and such and not for individual use. So I went and looked somewhere else and run into these guys on Amazon. I haven't got it yet but I ordered it today. But it is a rev2 so hoping that it will turn out good.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005KEQWS0/ref=ox_ya_os_product
So if anyone else is in the same boat where you just now want to get a FFC this seems to be a good deal. Just below $15.
Update: New link and it says it is a rev2 Whole Sale Gadget Camera (Revision 2) for Samsung i9000 Galaxy S
So I emailed Whole Sale Gadget and they said they only carry rev2 so that is what I will be expecting.
Update: So I got two cameras. One to replace the other. They both said Rev2 on them however the first one did not have a working front facing camera, and the second one the back end camera had a big green hue with a small area in the middle that looked normal. New area I am looking at is http://www.parts4repair.com/samsung-galaxy-s-i9000-camera-with-flex-cable/
Does anyone have experience with this company?
I believe that one is ver 1 though, some said amazon ships out v2 as well but not all. V2 is supposedly significantly better than v1. Just a heads up.

That's a rev 1 camera, I have one that I purchase from ebay with same ribbon prints.
I you want the real deal go with mobiletechvideos or rip the camera from a galaxy s 4g (ebay,craiglist)
here's a v2 i believe
http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110794337211
it's labeled v0.2
Looks like your chances of getting a v2 from that Amazon vender is 50/50.
Remembering another thread, two guys received a v1 but then were sent v2s when they complained. One fellow and myself were sent v2s at first.

I haven't yet. I did email them and they said it is the stock rev2 camera. They also said that they have many customers ordering from the USA. Maybe if we pool together so we don't have to spend the huge amount of shipping individually. I don't know. The Amazon guys burned me twice with their useless cameras. Although they had very good customer service and not sure how I ended up with the two malfunctioning ones.

pretty sure that .3mm measurement difference is just an error. there is zero reason why samsung would make one phone wider or slimmer... the vibrant even shares the chassis with the i9000... the forward facing camera hole is even present.

Duno but Captive cases wont work so just figured that was the same with the i9000, would be better for us if it were this way when the white cases come out.

The captivate is the most unique Galaxy S phone in terms of appearances, the Vibrant is one of the phones that is pretty much alike to the I9000 aside from the 4 keys and a front camera.
The captivate's method of taking it off is different as well.

says its not compatible with vibrant, i would assume if i9000 and vibrant shared exact same battery cover, then this would fit, meaning the one you purchased would fit too. since this doesn't, maybe the listing you showed won't either?
ps... why does it say unlocked i9000 only, what does being locked or unlocked have anything to do with a physical battery cover?

New 4G cameras? Are you referring to the Samsung Galaxy S 4G's camera?

So the camera for the Galaxy S 4G is compatible with our Vibrants?
Thats the same question i was aking myself...? On which i posted another thread... and supposedly they do work... so will be ordering those i guess and just sellthe extra one
sold 10char
Any update on the banding with the new "4G" Cameras? They are currently out of stock with the first linked "4G" camera, but have the I9000 in stock. I'm looking for the best one...
Those that bought the 4g ffc's should let us know how they work out.
The way I understand it, banding aside, is that the 4g cams will only work on a rom based off the t959v (Vibrant 4g) rom, which at the moment is only Bionix Frost. The i9000 ffc will work with everything else, including Bi-Winning and Simply Honey, and also any 2.2 roms if you push the ffc mod files that can be downloaded from the ffc support thread in the dev section.
I originally wanted a 4g cam, but then learned this and decided to go with the i9k instead. It seemed to have much more support in the chance I have functionality issues.
sooo..does anybody have an extra i9000 ffc the v0.2 one that i can buy off them?

Go to mobiletechvideos - he has them for sale. Also, having just bought one, I'll add that he's great at sending it quick and helping you troubleshoot any issues.
i was going to get one off his site, but he is currently all sold out..and he has no idea when he will get some more in. =/
If you have already made the ffc hole and want to play with something else while you wait for the v2 or the 4g ffc cam, I can sell you a spare v1FFC I still have. It would be $20-25 shipped. Let me know if you are interested.
Thanks bro, I appreciate it..but I haven't even started anything yet, and just want to do it all at once with the V2 ffc.
They are out of stock almost everywhere but you can preorder it and get2 for 80 at mobile tech videos
I have a a V1 if your interested.
I would check globaldirectparts. They normally keep ffcs in stock. I work on phones for a living and that's where I get my parts from.

All the roms (excluding cm7) will run webtop. It's just usually NOT included in the rom. If you need webtop, Samcripp has provided webtop fruitcakes in his thread, they can be flashed with cwm.
Most roms include one of faux123's kernels. So you will more then likely have a webtop status bar that does not function. Obviously faux is working on this. I am using a 1.3 ghz kernel he provided for testing. As far as I know, it is NOT a final fix.
Faux123 also provides a stock at&t kernel in his thread, that works perfectly with webtop.
Enjoy your lapdock!!

Will the AOSP rom do it? I would guess not since that's what CM7 is based on, right? has to be something based off of a moto ROM?
Anyone non US bought it successfully?
I'm from Argentina and I must tell, the price difference is dangerously huge.

Look, its a no brainer, yes Mobile Tech is a bit pricier, but, I can tell you from personal experience, that I did the Mod twice, 1st time with a V.1 camera= so-so results, lots of banding.
Then I got one from Josh at MTech, a V.2 what a difference, especially in low light situations!
So again its a no brainer, If you buy from Amazon, its a computer item to them, and they wont give any latitude on that at all!
So your cost for shipping starts at $7.99 =.65= a total of $8.64 then add $14.99 for purchase and its now= $23.63 Plus I guarantee its a V1 camera at that price.
Now Josh sells for $45.00 that Includes shipping, so subtotal 45-8.64= $36.36 So for an additional $13.00 you get a guaranteed V2 camera that's fresh made. Plus he backs his products up.
Saving a few dollars is foolish when ensures a quality upgrade to the vibrant. However if your doing this Mod in batches and for other people or family and you don't care about quality then buy the cheap ones from amazon, and then it'll be over $25 and shipping is free!.
Point is if your gonna do this Mod for your personal phone and you want quality then get it from Josh at Mobile Tech and get a for sure V2 FFC
All I can say is the V2 is Superior in image quality hands down from the V1 series!!

Some people have reported that the Amazon one is a rev2, now of course I can't be sure until I test it. Besides, I wasn't even going to do this FFC mod, the only reason I'm doing it is because my camera decided to die and I figured 'Why the hell not?' Now, I get your point, and I completely agree, you get what you pay for.

Well,I suggest contact for more information,if U still not trust them,U should not buy.
That's all.
Expansys is a very well known website looks legit to me. You can always call to make sure its not an error/inaccurate picture.

Don't think this phone exists... I feel like they just accidentally took one of the photos that was made when the first rumors of the white model came out.
It may or may not exist. They could have colored it themselves, and are selling it off as completely white, or it's like martonikaj said.
Do not check "yes this is a question" unless you are posting in Q&A.
I took the [Q] out of the title since this is a more general topic
Thanks

We definitely did not color it ourselves However, we are discontinuing them. Have a few more than backordered on the way in, but then we wont be offering them anymore.

Hi Corey, thanks for responding.
Just curious, where did you get fully white GNs? I thought they were never manufactured? Is this the work of a third party custom job?
it says the item is discontinued to me
If you check YouTube, you'll see several reviews of full-white Gnex's. It's legit, apparently.

I'm not saying that they're scammers or anything, I'm asking if people have actually seen this, or that its a fake picture, and will come white like other Galaxy Nexii. U should use "you", that is all.

We get them from a few different suppliers actually. I've never opened one myself. It will be back live on the site shortly, for the few remaining ones. We bought a large amount on a closeout, and then got enough to cover our orders + a few extra. Seems someone discontinued it a bit to early so we fixed it. Will come back online soon.
I wonder who made them. They must be custom built... right?

Probably, I haven't even seen white digitalizers for sale either, just white bodies.

White case, black face
I'm looking right this second at the white GN I bought from Expansys. The body of the phone is white (and gorgeous, might I add), while the front face is black. The photo on Expansys showed an entirely white phone, but I just assumed it was an incorrect photo. (And I was right.)
And, for what it's worth, it came with a UK (I believe? Definitely not standard USA) charger, and an adapter to fit it into a standard USA outlet.
Since it looks like one of the Expansys fellas is in this thread, thanks a lot. Really enjoying my purchase :]

Oh alright, thanks man! I was just confused and kinda hopeful at the same time.

I'm glad my purchase served a greater purpose than simply satisfying my annual gadget refresh compulsion :]
The photo on their page really is sort of confusing. But, given how many black-and-white shots and reviews I saw, I sort of went with Occum's Razor.
Really minor point, but definitely one that confused me for a bit too.
FWIW...I just ordered one the other day and it is white body with black face. I was hoping for something unique. But oh well. Still a pretty phone.
Awwww I was pretty excited as well.
Oh well, just buy a white skin and it'll look the same.
