Fake or Replica Galaxy S2's? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Hello everyone..
I was hoping someone could tell me if there are any fake or replica Galaxy S2's out there. I'm about to purchase a S2X (Telus version T-989D) from a shop in China Town.. I'm worried that it may be some sort of fake because of the price tag ($360 CAD).
So, are there any fake or replicas hovering around the market for this device? If so, how can I tell the difference?
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. I am going to have a look at the phone on Wednesday, so would appreciate quick replies.
Thanks everyone for taking the time out to read this and thanks in advance for your responses.
Sincerely,
SH31KH

Hmm... i suggest you take a close look at display one at the telus or even a tmobile one at the retail store before purchasing. I have heard of prototypes of these phones looking similar but never a replica. Make sure you test it on site and ask for warranties.

Galaxy Nexus Dual SIM

Hey, I just wondering, but none discussed about a dual sim adapter being compatible with galaxy nexus, something like this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dual-SIM-Ad...ccessories&hash=item3a7236bc2c#ht_3253wt_1396
Looks like these guys do....
www.magic-sim.com
I've got products off them before so can vouch for the service

I was looking at this.... does anyone have an experience with anything of this sort.. just wanna check as importing it and all will cost quite a lot so being sure of the product.

why did you bump a year old thread?
Google landed me on this thread.. So didn't create separate thread for the same query... And hoping that someone would be using the same thing.

Lost my s-pen

As the title says.... I guess it grew legs and ran away. Has anyone got a replacement yet? If so, where did you get it, and how much was it?
I saw a few on Amazon from $20/$35... but they had mixed reviews.
Any help is appreciated!

Ask service centre.
This is impractical but they may lead you to a reliable source.

Broken display. Help needed.

Hi. few days back my galaxy nexus fell on the concrete floor first display and the screen got broken. i guess the galaxy nexus screen is not well protected as this was the first time it fell and broke. So you better use a casing.
Anyway.. the problem is, i went to the shop to get it repaired but they don't have the display of Galaxy nexus. I live in Bangladesh (South East Asia) and apparently not enough Galaxy Nexus has made it here. So what do i do? I love my nexus way too much to buy a new phone and it has not been a year since i am using it.
What i was thinking is that, many of you might have a nexus which is not working, probably a bad mother-board, with perfect display. Some of you might have a spare nexus which you are not even using. So will it be possible for you to ship it here? I just need the display so that i can repair it .i could have bought it from ebay, but ebay is not yet available in our country. I know it is a lot to ask, but i am ready to pay every penny. If any of you want or can help me, please write here, i will send all my details.
Thanks a lot. I will be really grateful

Ebay does not provide their service in Bangladesh. Otherwise i would have done that.

The website is trust worthy but the shipment does take awhile, but it is free ;D
Hi @KingOfDope
Thanks for your help.
None of the cases are like the one i'm searching, but look good cases at a a good price.

[Q] Repair parts availability?

Hi all,
I have a Note 10.1 2014 that I bricked for good-really!-and I want to try putting a replacement mother board in. At least I assume it's the MB. Anyone know where parts might be available in the U.S.? (I can't deal with China shipping time, forget overseas at all)
Other alternative is if someone here has a damaged unit with a known good board that I could cannibalize. I'm very experienced with working on small parts, used to work in defense electronics so doing the physical replacement will go easy for me, and thanks to everyone here, I can flash the ROM, etc.
Very much appreciated if anyone can help-thanks in advance!
