A little polishing might have been nice.
I do like how the color looks against the white but the plastic could use some polishing.
maybe after you polish it, it would look really nice.
Sad part is, My T989 is black and well, black on black... eh

Yeah im not completely done with it yet but i had dropped it a couple times so sand off the chrome and looks like it hasnt been dropped just modded

What grit did you use?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

umm I'm not sure
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

Use a REALLY fine grit... It'll keep the scratches from showing when u paint it.

It was pretty gritty

Did you take the phone apart to sand and paint?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

No..also I have not painted it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

400 grit is pretty fine, but you could also go up to 2000 grit which is finer than toothpaste

I'm in the process of sanding mine off and my wife's pedicure files work really well. Just don't tell her that.

Any comment on if the black rubber of the case catches lint going in and out of your pocket?
None at all. The grip is more in the design than the properties if the material. Its not sticky; think rigid.

1.9 processor. Flexible screen. 64 gb ... holy lol. I think I'm going to wait it out to get this. I've been reading up on it and they are saying the details about it are the same as what is on the pic but the look of it could change. I think they are going for a nexus and s3 look.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
That looks like an updated Nexus S

Please tell me why you think a 3000mAh battery would actually weight the phone down LESS than the 1650mAh battery we have now?
Looks cool...I just hope the screen size isn't stupid big and ruin the whole look and feel...like on the note.

Was thinking the same thing. I like the design, but highly doubt that would make it look so close to the nexus.

Have the images been taken down??? i'm assumin if it looks like a nexus then there are no hard or soft buttons...
Maybe it will look like this?

Stupid? Your question is stupid, the only way to do it is take the phone apart and put in a different light. A light is not software, you can't just magically change its color.
No, you can't change the color of the capacitive button on the t989. If you see that option in a ROM, it is referring to on screen buttons like those on a Nexus.
