[Q] Looking to buy a FFC for my vibrant

Anybody selling these? All of the ones I've seen so far seem to have been claimed already
If not, where's the best place to get one? I'd like to get in within the next two weeks since I'm going on vacation, but I can't wait if needed

I know E-Bay has them and possibly other stores onlines, but not sure if they can get it to you within 2 weeks, but you could try

I just looked on Ebay. All of them seem to be shipping from Hong Kong and wont get here until April

Look under products section...
He also has a great video tutorial
on how to install the ffc

I bought one from Josh, super fast shipping.
Actually he was just putting "out of stock" on the revision 1 cameras when I placed the order.
He sent me the revision 2 cameras which do not have the binding issues coming with rev 1.
I installed it in my Vibrant and it works great!
Definitely recommend it!
You can find on mobiletechvideos.com

Thanks guys. I just placed an order for the FFC
I'm super excited!
Thanks again

you can get them from Globaldirectparts.com

For the time being...is Axura the only rom that works with this? That's what his video said anyway...I'd love to use it with Trigger.
NVM, found my answer.

I want one. Do u have to buy them im bulks?

How come are these so cheap on ebay? I wonder if they are of the same quality that are sold for a little more on other places.

They are cheaper because they come from Hong Kong, and it takes about 3-4wks for delivery. So your paying almost double to have it in a few days.

Yeah seen the mobile tech one looking to buy...

I have a v1 I'll be looking to sell soon (aka whenever I get around to it). Its not installed and packaged in its bubble wrap.
Anyone can pm me if interested. Probably looking about $15-20.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

Definitly go with Josh at MobileTech videos. If you go through anyone else you may have to buy in bulk and wait up to a week. I ordered mine on Monday and received it Wednesday. If you're scared to install it then he can do it for you (for an extra fee of course). Can't get that through ebay or anywhere else.

Real aluminum home button sticker

I just want to introduce CELLDECO home button sticker made by 100% real aluminum(the material is produced in the U.S and manufactured in Korea). It gives your Galaxy S III a stylish look. Each package contains 3 buttons(Black/White/Red or White/Silver/Pink).

That pic with the red cover reminds me Fast and Furious logic,take a great looking car attach neon lights aerofoil and stuff and make the car both horribly looking and less aerodynamic...
Like,take a Porche 911 and make it look like that per se:
No offence for the op btw!

I was charged $20.80 that's including the shipping with tracking. That was before I found out about the zoarah website so if you ask him to price match and lower he might be able to do it.

No no...3 STICKERS that go on the buttons

20 dollars for this..lol. if anything i would prefer a recessed button for obvious reasons. i don't have sausage fingers :cyclops:

It is quite expensive for button stickers. I bought it just for the uniqueness of it. These arent cheap plastic stickers, it's metal.

Fake SGP Neo Hybrid Color Series Case for only $14.39

I came across these fake SGP Neo Hybrid cases on eBay and purchased one for only $14.39 free shipping, I should be getting one in couple of days and post some pictures and maybe do a review. I contacted one of the buyers who already received the case about the quality, he replied back with the following.
(I did not realize it was fake, until i saw on the side "designed by spigen california". I had never heard of Sigen before, so i didn't know what to expect. Overall i'm impressed by the quality, only the white part is on top en bottom a little lose.. The case is definitely worth the money).
http://www.ebay.com/itm/SGP-Neo-Hyb...392273?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item1e71bf7791
I received the case today and as promised I took some pictures, first two pictures were taken outside so you can see the actual color of the case, let me know if you have any question.

I was looking at these too. I was going to buy one but I go for the Ballistic instead.

Seems like they're not even pretending they're real?

Yeah, definitely fakes. Also messaged one of the sellers who was honest and stated it was not genuine. However, will be interesting to see what the quality is like. Cheers.

Should be delivered by Thursday, I will check it out and report on the volume rocker and power buttons.

I could get them for less than USD 5, the quality looks good, you probably can tell them aprt if next to each other.

There are similar ones being sold with a black back as well. You can see them here:

Sorry but I don't think those are very similar at all. SPG is TPU with PC border....That case is silicone, PC back, and ugly.

Official Samsung Protective Cover

I didnt see a thread about this specific case.
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EFC-1G6BWEGSTA
Has anyone see or heard about this? is it worth getting?
This one appears to be much more protective than the original gel case..but im not sure? With the 50% coupon im thinking of getting it

Has no one tried this new case from samsung?

Case looks good but Samsung support sucks if the case gets screwed. So I will not buy it from them ever

hey if you find a link for this case please post it i'm very interested in picking one up. thanks:good:

I was hoping samsung would get these back in stock to use the 50% off code.
Amazon shows them but, out of stock.
Anyone else find them?

Lifeproof Case on eBay?

I've seen a bunch of threads regarding that the Lifeproof cases aren't out yet... But on eBay there are a few cases for sale. I'm guessing these are fake but the pictures look pretty legit. Any experience with these? I'm still new so I can't post links but if you type in "S3 Lifeproof" on eBay it should pop up.

Their fake.

Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

I was about to start a thread and remembered there already was one. So since this thread I've noticed a large increase in the number of fake lifeproof's, I'm assuming some company in china got the specs and started making replicas. Looks like the prices are in the $40 to $50 range, so who's going to be the guinea pig and buy one? Part of me wants to try it since the real lifeproof cases cost $80, but another part of me thinks that its stupid to spend $50 on something that could be complete crap. Especially if it ships from china or hong kong, if I don't like it I'd have to pay the shipping all the way back. Plus I'd have to wait 3 weeks just to get it and possibly another 3 weeks to get the refund........
Anybody want to sponsor me? I'll put a big pictorial and detailed review?:laugh:

LifeProof
I'll be ordering one from a US Seller for a slightly higher markup. I can post a video review on Youtube, and here as well. I'll get it some time next week, as I'll probably order it with my birthday money or when my paycheck comes in. And hey, if you want to push $5 towards the cause, I wouldn't be opposed They look exactly like the iPhone version, even down to the packaging and colors available. one seller even mentioned that they aren't LifeProof branded, but had a 1 month return/refund/warrenty. In addition, Paypal and my bank offer a certain amount of time to make sure a product actually works (3 or 6 months, I think). I'm game for giving it a shot!
I imagine that the install would be the same as for an iPhone... and I'd want to check the seals BEFORE installing my phone... that'd be really sad.

Found it but it's not on lifeproof website.

Right, that's the whole point of this entire thread. These are FAKE or replicas or whatever you want to call them, that's why this thread got started. That's why they only cost $40 to $50 dollars. That's why some of them are from CHINA. I think I'll probably end up buying one of these once I find a white one that's being sold here in the US. I know they all are probably being made in the same place in Hong Kong or somewhere but I don't see any reason to order something and wait for a month for it to get here.

Being that lifeproof has yet to release the case, what's the alternative? If you need protection a fake case is better than nothing.

I didn't even know this one existed. I'll have to look into it. I take it you're happy with the case? Is touch sensitivity okay? I had the OBEX for a week and hated it. I like to five and would like to have something I can take on the boat with me that I don't have to worry about getting banned around or splashed. I have no intentions of actually taking it into the water.
