Atrix Back cover

Since the back cover for the Atrix is one piece and actually covers the sides as well, i was wondering if these can be made out of carbonfiber. Anyone have the hookup on someone that can make custom CF parts?
Getting a case that snaps around this seems counter intuitive. You'd think the incipio and spek cases would just be replacement covers.

I was on some website, I cant remember and they had other backcovers on pre-order for $20.... They all looked like a rubberized material with a sort of carbon fiber design and each had a motorola symbol in the center. Either blue, green or pink.

I believe it was MobileCity Online or something like that. Definitely only preorder status right now.
I agree the back is waaaay too slippery. I feel like I am going to drop it while typing. I am holding out for Powermat to release a back to use with the charging pad. If not, I might opt for the soft rubber battery covers.

Interesting. I'd like to get an extra one to use as a template. I think i got someone lined up for carbon fiber but i'd need to give them a template that wouldnt survive. I also have to make a minimum order of like 50, which i'd toss up on Ebay.

i'd be down for a couple if you could post some shots of what it would look like...since it does wrap around the corners it would slim down the phone too (versus case)...

I would so buy one.

I have no idea how much these are going to cost me and i wont know until i can give them a battery cover to work with.
Honestly, if i have to get 50 made (they estimated 50-100), i wouldnt do it unless the price i could sell them for was about $40. Regular cases are around $30 so $40 would be a great price. Most CF cases are grossly overpriced and i'd like to avoid that.
Also, this would be a replacement for the battery cover. It wouldn't be a case so it would still work in the docking stations.

I seriously doubt you'll ever see a carbon or any other compost back. There is just no way to mold in the little clips that hold the back on. So plastic is your only bet. you can't even wrap in carbon because you need to fold the material over the edge for a good hold, and doing so would block the locking clips.
I'm trying my hand at covering the back in 3M DI-NOC (carbon fiber looking vinyl), which should give it some grip.

I have no experience with CF but those little tabs may be moldable (is that even a word??). Ill continue to investigate. If it doesnt work, i lost nothing.
If you get that Dinoc on post some pics up here. I'd be interested to see how it holds up around the corners since it cannot be folded back inside due to very small tolerances between the phone and the cover.

having a little experience with molding and CF, it will be so hard to get a good piece with the proper mounting tabs, you'll have more scrap than good pieces. Not to mention that when it's that thin, it will probably snap after a few uses (mounting clips, not cover). CF isn't some magical material you can will into any shape like you can melted plastic. To mold in the locking tabs means the piece would be "clipped" into the mold upon completion, not a desirable situation.
I will post if i get the DI-NOC to look presentable. I know a few places sell pre-cut DI-NOC protectors, but those don't cover 100% of the phone.

Your experience with CF is a lot more than mine, so ill take your word for it, but i will still investigate because it wont cost me anything. If it works, great.
The only thing i'll put on mine is a very thin "sticker" or nothing. A case isnt going to work for me as i will be using a dock. It seems stupid to think that companies made a case when all they had to do was replicate the battery cover and then market this as "Hey look, our solution works with your dock."

Let's see if you beat me to it! See the Captivate in my signature! I can't stand how slippery this thing is compared to my Di-Noc carbon fiber Captivate.... The only advantage to it is that it works great on my Desk Genie

Hey, if you can get it done, then more power to you, just trying to make sure you have a realistic outlook going in.
I'm betting companies don't make just backs because the design is 'proprietary' to the manufacturer.

I didnt even think of that! Surely there is some Chinese company chomping at the bit to make some cash.
EDIT
A clear acrylic battery cover would look cool. Show the insides a bit. And that will SURELY be cheaper than CF.
Im full of ideas today.

I apparently fail at vinyl. I can't get it to wrap the corners nicely, the stuff is too thick.

That **** is ROUGH, let me tell you.... I have done rear view mirrors (not side view, the interior ones) and man I thought all 11 years experience I've had doing vinyl was a damn joke! I gave up on even starting the back panel, check out the thread I just created for the carbon fiber front and sides, not to mention the back panel with REMOVED AT&T logo, REMOVED "HD VIDEO" text, and the "blur" in Moto blur....

Atrix Back Cover Different Colors

Wondering if anyone would be interested in having their back cover in a different color? I can paint them and clear coat them professionally just about any color you would want.
If anyone is interested let me know here or PM me.
I'm located in Chicago. I will charge $18.00 shipping included.
If I get enough interest I will buy some OEM covers and have them painted once the order is placed. You can send me your cover or I can provide one and you ship yours back to me when you receive mine.
Will work it out.....

Will the paint be flexible enough to stay adhered when we bend the cover to access the battery/sim card, etc? This is $18 including the OEM cover cost or not?

Any samples? I'm reluctant to do this without seeing a finished product first.

yea one sample would be nice

I wanted to see how much interest before I went painting my own. Three people won't make it worth while for me. I know if I show a sample I may get more interest so I will look for a cover to work on than post.
I don't want to use my won in case I decide to return it within 30 days.
I will get back to this post as soon as I locate a cover.
Thanks.

how bout a pic

I would be interested in this as well, provided I can see a sample

I want to see a sample first!

i wouldn't expect it to include the cover cost. that would leave him in the negative after shipping charges, which doesn't make much sense.

Is this thread dead or what? Does anyone know what materials I would need to go about doing this myself? I don't know much about paint types and clear coats and the likes...
Even a good forum about that stuff would be a good start

if you have the time to coat the original battery door in plasti-dip its really sick! i did it to mine and its all rubbery and looks amazing with the two tone black on the sides. then i put one of those $2 mesh covers from ebay with it(in white), boy is it sexy!
a can of sprayable plasti-dip from a hardware store is like 5 bucks and comes in different colors
also note its probably wayyyyy different than what this guy is suggesting.

Yeah pics would be nice. Did it paint well? Like do you have to worry about scratching it off or anything? I'm confused that you say it's rubbery...

well its rubbery because that is the nature of plasti-dip (its meant for coating tools to give them grip)
i spent a week with it on but we had a really hot day and it bubbled / ripped after taking it in and out of my pocket. gonna give it another go today with multiple coats. will post pics after and tell you guys how it goes. ( only did 1 heavy coat before)
theres another thread on XDA about rubberizing the covers somewhere (my friend did his nexus S, g2x, and mytouch 4g)

here are the pics with and without the mesh.
this coat/attempt seems alot more stable, scratched at it with my fingernail and got nothing off (aggressively). take that as you will.

Battery/back cover advice

I prefer a rubber/grippy back to my phones, and the current white Note back is too slippery/shiny for my taste. Does anybody know of any back cover replacement (not a case, and not with the screen protector attachment) I could buy? Thanks!

There are a lot of case that will add that grippy feel your looking for but I think your looking for a simple battery cover replacement. There are a lot of those out there but I dont remember seeing any that has a rubberised texture your looking for. You might have better luck searching for a 3M like film that will cover your battery cover, I've seen a few that offer carbon fiber that might help with the grip but not exactly the rubber feel your looking. I will keep my eyes open if I see one and let you know.
Found this one:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Leather-Skin...924042?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27c32851ca
(Leather but still for grip)

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/white-PU-lea...ccessories&hash=item2a1b8d698c#ht_4415wt_1037
(white)
Also Just a reminder that these are for the international version, If you have the AT&T version I've heard that the battery door snap ins are a little different.

I've got a couple of these, not the same brand since mine has the Samsung logo on them. There nice because the do add just a little thickness which i like because it raised the camera just a touch so it doesn't get scratched. I think the OP wanted something with a little more grip, but I don't find these nearly as slippery as the gloss white cover.

Just phenomenal everyone, thanks for the input. I think I'll try one of the metal covers! Just worried about too much added thickness, and maybe color clashing since I see some black around the border of the cover, and I have a white note. Can you guys comment on the quality of the cover? The metal cover thread seems to have conflicting reports, from 'beautiful' to 'lacking in quality.' thanks again.

Metal covers = attenuated cellphone signal = worse battery life. There's a trade off.
I'm looking for a battery cover that has a matte finish. Haven't found any unfortunately.

For those using these replacement back cover, does it still fit the Samsung Car Dock?
I am curious if these covers add extra thickness such that it will not fit the dock anymore.

Thats the first thing i worry about when getting a case / cover. Most docks are designed for the naked phone, so your stuck between a protected undockable phone or a scratched up one.....no way im taking the case off everytime i charge the phone, geez...i cannot wait for wireless charging to become the norm...

air cooling case for GN. (pic inside)

Actually, I really dont know how to describe such case.
Since there many holes on the back and might be help for to cool down GN.
So I just call it air cooling case.
There're also other kind of case with holes on ebay and taobao. But they are
too rough and too ugly. Usually cost around 3RMB,but u won't want to put it
on your GN which might scratch ur GN.
I bought this one around 10USD. And the color is green with little bit metal
feeling.
The only disadvantage is: It won't fit with 2000mah battery. So u can only use
1750mah battery with it.

looks nice. could you post a link?

But I don't read Korean enough/at all to figure out if they ship to Canada or how to checkout.

Plenty of cheap ones.
These are called "Mesh snap on" cases.
Here's for the GSM Nexus: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=i9250+mesh&_sacat=0
$1.92
There's no "snap on mesh" cases for the Verizon, they're more fully formed so it's not cheap.
$7-$9 http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=i515+mesh&_sacat=0&_odkw=i9250+mesh&_osacat=0

Those are the cheap feeling ones the OP described. I was asking for a link to a cheaper site for the Anymode version the OP recommended. Thanks though!

this is not going to cool your phone, you are adding another layer of plastic to trap heat. do you cool yourself by wearing a sweater?

The "air cooling" is just a term to describe this case. Just a comparison
between other TPU or silicon case.
Of course no case is the coolest!

Great case! I ended up getting it from eBay since I can't read Korean/Chinese nor trust signing up with credit card info to foreign websites I don't understand. Nice matte finish on the black one here. Feels solid, snug and good in the hand. The wrap-around to the front leaves just enough of a gap between housing and screen that edge-to-edge screen protectors should work nicely. And the design and materials seem excellent for signal, WiFi and NFC (unlike my last case)! Would definitely buy again.
Very, very pleased... now I just need my Fantom tempered glass screen protector:

Those ones don't really count. The pictures show a full case with the snap on mesh that goes over it. So the mesh on those cases is just for looks.

My issue with these mesh cases is that dust collects in the holes REALLY easily. :\

Backplate Replacement

So I've had the OF-7 for a few days now, and so far, my only complaint with the larger than normal ("Normal" being a Nexus 5 for me) screen size for me is the texture of the backplate. Its too smooth, and with the weight, it feels unsafe. I pre-ordered, so they sent me the flip cover which actually feels a lot better in the hand..
Unfortunately I take a lot of videos, so when the flip cover is open and I'm taking video, it gets in the way of the video. Does anyone know where I can buy another backplate that has a better texture to it than the stock smooth one? Thank in advance!

Well, the OnePlus is essentially the same device and its getting backplate alternatives, so we could see that coming to the Find 7 in the near future, but i don't know. Or maybe some third-party company starts to make them, like dBrand for example.

I thought the same about the stock backplate. I loved the feel of the Easy Cover but I don't like flip covers. So I cut the flip part of the cover off. Just cut the flip part along the crease where it naturally folds over. Then, using a nice sharp pair of scissors, Trim the remaining faux leather so it is flush with the plastic edge underneath. The side with the volume rocker has the plastic underneath the faux leather extending past the side of the phone. Just use some sand paper to make it flush with the part that is indented to accommodate the volume rocker. I found that the plastic overhang was reducing faster than the faux leather. Just sand some of the plastic then use the scissors to cut it flush again and continue until the plastic overhang is gone and flush with the sides of the phone. Then you might want to rough up the plastic edge on the power button side. This makes both sides uniform and gives better grip. When everything looks nice and flush use a lighter to melt any frayed faux leather. It probably took me 30 mins because I was a little obsessed with making it look nice. The end result is that it's flush with the left and right sides. It doesn't look hacked together at all. The only asymmetry is that the side that had the flip doesn't have stitching. I've attached pictures. Hopefully it works since I have less than 10 posts.

Wow, that's really well done Doc!
Might have myself a little weekend project here.
I'm really waiting for a thin case like Spigen or Incipio make for the Galaxy series. Nice matte feel for better grip and very thin.

the tchichs
Thnaks, I'm happy with the results. Almost everyone who I've shown my new telephonic smart device to has commented on how good the backplate feels. Give it a try. I'm not super craftsy or anything so anybody should be able to do it. The most tedious part was sanding down the lip on the volume rocker side. I used coarse grit sandpaper but if you had a rotary tool it would go much faster.

The Find 7 Premium has the carbon fiber back-plate. That is suppose to feel more secure. Maybe you can get it already somehow from China.
I have been able to shoot video with the flipcover, ARe you sure you can't acclimate to it? It's also not a bad idea in the protection department.
If you tilt your phone to the right instead of the left and hold the cover closed from the bottom it's not too awkward (for me anyway).

The white back actually has a really nice texture and is not as slippery as the black one. I actually want to see about ordering a replacement but in black. I think it would look cool, black front, white middle molding and black back I hope they start to sell just the backs. I emailed Oppstyle about it. Hopefully they will sell me a black one

I have the white back and still thought it was a little too slippery. I bought a black Nillkin case and Nillkin glass screen protector. The case is a nice textured softouch plastic. It fits great does not add much girth and no more slipperiness. Looks great with white peaking through the speaker and camera cutouts.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nillkin-Mat...Cell_Phone_PDA_Cases&var=&hash=item4d1b84f4c2
The glass protector went on easy but I had a bubble that I could not get out. After 2 days the bubble went away with occasional rubbing. Glass feels great but shows fingerprint oil more than stock. I don't like the ear piece/sensor cut out, I would have preferred a separate cut out for each. Seems kind of stupid putting glass on to protect gorilla glass butt people always loved the glass protectors so I thought I would try it. Since the case and protector came to $19 together, what the heck, give it a try. Shipping from China to SoCal was about 10days..

I have this exact setup. Can confirm the glass is very nice and the case is much better than the eBay ones.

Most people have reported that it has very little to no effect. I've barely used the front camera but I just looked at it and it looked fine to me.

Have anyone found a Place to order replacement back covers, I bought a midnight but would like to try the white and carbonfiber backcover to. Don't have the phone right now as I had to send it back to Oppostyle to get it replaced, but they still don't have any stock. Asked them about getting carbonfiber or white back covers, they checked with Oppo and they answered that they had no plans to sell back covers seperately.

If you want to snatch a carbon look-a-like cover, or simply midnight / white spares, thats the place you got to go.
Kedros charges 4.80€ per cover + 1€ shipping (china international) + 5% paypal fees.
Don't think you will find it any cheaper elsewhere.

Ok, that sounds interesting, but I can't register on the oppoforums for some reason.

Yeah for some reason I can't register through the web.
Use tapatalk and search for oppo, there you can register for an account

Same problem from tapatalk, it just opens the browser to register for me.

I downloaded the app, and that's how I got an account in.

I would love one with a sandstone texture like the OnePlus One.
