Awesome im doing this as well, how did you switch the camera tho?
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

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.

NP, so how does it look? that sounds like a very nice decal.
I want to know as well, any updates on this?
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

I mean the actual frame/shell, not a protective case that goes on top.
I was looking on ebay (seller id:kickmobiles-ltd) i saw a few all white galaxy nexus and i saw some with only the back cover white? are all those made by Samsung because i can only seems to find the all white one ebay and they are pretty expensive if any body have one can you tell if they any different than the regular white back SGN ?
The official 'white' Nexus still has a black front on it

so the all white one is just a modified one, which mean they just replace the front cover..they look pretty official to me, the seller id was kickmobiles-ltd
I want to say that photo is either photoshopped or that is a white skin on the front. Either way I wish it was real. Looks good in all white.

I love how you mix the Titanium Silver power button and volume rocker with the white housing!
As for the battery cover, Droid-Life found some on German eBay. It's the housing and battery cover though. I couldn't post link, but try Googling "How to: Turn Your Original Galaxy Nexus Into a White Galaxy Nexus". Should be from Droid-Life and look up for the link there

Hi all,
Right now Note 3 neo is offered in two color, Black and White. so which color you prefer and why?
From youtube I have learnt that the quality of material of both this color are not same. The black one feel more leathery than white. But the white version doesn't attract fingerprints.
i have the white,i think in visual the black looks more leather.but by touching it,i think its the same.for me white is more attractive
I would choose black one. Black as a color looks more classy !
And it won't get that dirty easily when compared to white one.
always black mostly in white phone if any pen or ink spot comes than its really hard to remove unlike black phones so always think twice b4 buying a white 1

Agree with u.. especially pen ink causes a lot of issues..
@OP- black one doesn't attract fingerprints in my case (unless uve dipped ur fingers in oil )
Buy the colour u like.. I had a white S2.. decided to take black this time!
I feel black looks classier.. also the amoled blacks are complimented by the black colour !
