I've seen that before. It's not a case. It's a screen protector with the Android sticker. Look at the picture carefully, there is nothing that indicates that a case is used, but you can tell there is a screen protector on. I've also seen those stickers around gmarket when I was looking around.

It would be nice if that were an extra back cover. The problem i think for some people is not wanting to mess up or add thickness to the cover they already own.

Check Ebay they make a white device now, so there has to be OEM white back covers floating around too

There..but damn its expensive.

That looks like its just a spray paint of the original back. I did that with the vibrant but it was a non textured back so the spraypaint would stick pretty well. Even with the clear coat it still wore off pretty fast. I am guessing this is a back yard job so while it looks good now the paint will crack etc. Its hard to get the paint thickness to coverage ratio just right. around the camera area the paint started to crack on my vibrant one.
also says new and in the package haha.

Looks legit to me, or he must have done a good job to get the paint to be so smooth given that the original back is textured...
and
That's the default listing for new items, the seller didn't say "in the package."

The white t989 does not have a textured back but a smooth hi-gloss finish. I have the white one so I can confirm that this is true.

I never said the white cover isn't smooth, I said that the Titanium back cover is textured. Which would make it difficult to spray paint it to look smooth.

I would trade my white battery door from my white gs2 for a black battery door from the black gs2

Skin Your Galaxy Nexus! Make it White, Red, Carbon, etc!

I was researching because I have seen people skin black iPhone's (bleh) and such to be white and I thought it looked awesome. I found a site that has a very huge reputation and customer feedback that now supports the Galaxy Nexus! I already ordered my white skin! These are awesome because they do not add any bulk and look legit!
Will post pictures of just a few examples, they have 8 pages of skins though! 9.99 for the skin, not bad at all just an FYI for anyone that also wanted to do this,

I'm looking forward to your review.

Looks good but a no no for me if notification led is covered. Mind you The white skin would look brilliant with white theme.

you can just use a hole puncher to make the led notification.
if you want it all white, soon there will be white nexus shells available and mercury (korea company that makes cases and protectors for mobile phones)makes the multi colour screen protectors for many phones including the nexus are already available.

Looks sweet, looking forward to your review!

Not very good at making holes could ruin it. Shells will probably make significantly bulkier which I don't want.
I will probably wait for feedback on skin.

I got mine from skinit.com
i will post pics in few minutes i made really similar design as i will have on my phone just waiting for my invisible shield to arrive
EDIT: Look into attachments

I'm waiting on the white chassis with the white extended battery door.

Gelaskins also has skins for those interested. I can't post links yet due to post count but they're at:

this one is my friends (i made the design online on their site and he applied on his phone for now) he said it was easy , and skinit is better since you can do your own design.

I much prefer using gelaskins myself since they only seem to be the ones that cover the full back of the nexus while other sites just cover the battery door and a strip underneath it. Plus like many other sites you can make custom skins for yourself with custom designs.
Plus they are a local business. Gotta support the local economy

Why'd you make a new thread? Several of us in the White Housing thread already have done this and posted pictures there.
Anyways... I did the same thing since my white housing didn't come with buttons, also used the grey back temporarily till my white back arrived. It looks better with the white back

almost stock white gnex

got the white housing for the gnex and decide to buy the white matte screen protector
http://www.chinagadgetland.com/middle-cover-for-samsung-galaxy-nexus-i9250-white-p-10006362.html
housing from chinabudgetland.com cost $29.50. Everything was great and was easy to install. Only con is that it doesn't come with white button. But i manage to get a huge discount from the owner and ended up paying only $17.50 for the housing and shipping with tracking number. Came in every nice packing and lots of bubble wrap.
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Google-Samsu...s=63&clkid=1418648887061820089#ht_6624wt_1052
the Gnex color screen protector cost $8.88 with free shipping took only 8 day to ship from south korea. Seller sold 35 so i taught it was a trusted seller. Everything was great except the fact that it abit smaller that the screen. But it look pretty nice.

lolwut? of course Jelly Bean has LED notification, I'm using it.
If only there was a way of making sure that the LED shines through the screen protector I'd buy it.

Mine jb doesn't have notification light. I got the paid lightflow app and it doesn't turn on when there a notification. Just holepunch it

Yeah I figured he was just posting without knowing for sure. I dont think they will ever make a white digitizer as the next model is just around the corner and since its so difficult to replace just the digitizer without ruining the lcd.

The amoled is fused to the glass so its impossible to replace the glass without also replacing the amoled, which is why there are no third party digitizers.
No I really wish they made a white digitizer. I would make a full white gnex if they did.
Also, a white digitizer for the dinc would be nice

Thanks for the pics but I dont think there ever will be a white digitizer. The market is so small for that plus it would have to come with a very expensive lcd screen that just isnt cost feasable. I cant find any surveys but a $250 digitizer is just crazy when a brand new phone costs 350+tax, with the costs surely to drop as time passes. Stickers are our only hope until Fantom decides to release a white glass screen protector which I dont think is very likely. Istyles and skinit are 2 other websites that sell custom vinyl stickers and attached a couple of pics that I found from other threads. A black front on top of an all white body isnt too bad though and have thought about ordering vinyl stickers but am sure I will just rip them off after a day or two of having it on.
