[Q] Red Aluminum Home Button - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone!
I'm looking to get a red aluminum home button for my Note 2. I recently purchased one from ebay. Since I'm new, I can't post links, but it was from ebay member "castte", just search for "Note 2 Home Button Red"
However, upon receiving it, it was definitely hot pink (see attached image). The seller said it was the way he took the picture, but I don't know. I requested a refund and won't be using it
Anyways, now I'm trying to find another place that sells something like this and I am having a tough time. Does anyone else know of a place where I can get this in red? If not, I may just go the SPIGEN route and use their silver sticker.

Search in the Verizon section. .. the users there use different aluminum buttons to cover the Verizon branding
scribbled from my note 2 (N7100)

where did you buy it? I want one pink

apparently, my red is the same brand, it seems like the seller sold out of the red and gave you the pink, where i get them you won't be able to get it, I get it direct from china shenzhen.
here is a photo of the red one in the package.

That's awesome! I didn't even know a slider case was available for the SGS already. Def worth looking into. Just wish it didn't have the dvt antenna cutout.
Nice, i really like it... when is this going to be available? i checked in www.sgpstore.com and it's not there
I already contacted SGP about getting Galaxy S cases in the US. They simply said the don't sell them anywhere here.
Man I normally don't like cases, but I kinda like that one.
It looks ok. but very heavy. And, Ive to see anything that protects the LCD.

if you scroll down, you will see it.
They also have some nice SGP cases. I heard they made good screen protectors as well. It's only ~$17.

Thanks Frescokiiid!
I wanted the white one, but now im undecided between Black and White what do you guys think?
I just ordered a black one. Think it keeps the phone closest to the original look.

Awesome find Frescokiiid! I look forward to a review of the case from whoever gets one first.
I already ordered three other covers, but this is the kind I was waiting for.
i just put the order through, i ended up ordering the black one. ill be updating the status of my order since it looks like a British site and will be a week or two before i get it specially since i went the cheap route and got the 3 dollar shipping lol.

White Evo Conversion

I ordered a kit that has the back door, frame and faceplate, back door and frame are white. I paid 59.99 that included the tools (t5, t6, philips, removal tool, and suction cup)
I will post pics of progress and how to.
I purchased this on eBay btw.
Thanks to B0r0b here is a link to a tear down video http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/HTC-E...eardown/2979/1

FYI....all original white EVO's sku and ESN are in the system as white EVO. Be careful if you have to return your evo to sprint, they'll see that it's a black evo and could deny your claim.
I'm aware of that. And if I had to return it then I would want to keep my white housing for my next phone. Thanks for the heads up though.
Can you link to the seller for the kit?

While this is semi correct, the ESN plate is attached to the board, not the rear frame. It's considered an accessory and would be seen as such. Same as with a Blackberry, you can get a custom color front faceplate, that doesn't change the fact that it's a Inferno just because there's a chrome faceplate on it.
Also, to save you some potential work:
http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/HTC-Evo-4G-Teardown/2979/1
That link provides an entire teardown. Just reverse it with your new rear frame.

Kr-net is the seller but I can't find the white kit for the life of me. Seems that auction ended yesterday. Maybe he will resell it. The item was called "OEM HTC EVO 4G WHITE HOUSING FACEPLATE + BATTERY COVER"

Thanks for the video link. That would save me from making instruction video on this thing.
Looks like it isn't too much trouble. We have a lot of users that have been asking to trade theirs in for the white one.
Interesting. Keep us posted.

I ordered a new one off ebay that showed up for $40 free shipping. Comes with the battery door, new battery and frame. Seemed like good deal so I jumped. I already have the T5 and pry tools from my nextel modding days years ago. I will swap mine once I get it!

Looks like you found them, the one I bought was a one off by a seller that had nothing else for sale.
Yes the white is just the back half of the phone, the front is still black.
Just ordered an OEM white housing from ebay. Seller had 6 with only 1 availible. Got it for $30 shipped. I already have the extented white batt cover too. So frick'n sick.

I was kind of disappointed only the back was white. But I've been wanting one forever and that was the only color in stock.

[Q] Replacement Casing for Lumia 900

So i work for at&t and as such had the good fortune to win one of these amazing devices that I have decided to switch to as my main device over my Galaxy Note. That being said I really dont like the black finish and would really much rather have a cyan or white one. Is anyone aware of anyway to purchase replacement casing for them? And roughly how much they would run? With these phones being so easy to tear down I would much rather replace the casing than just buying a case for it.
I did a quick search and didn't find any replacement parts available just yet for the Lumia. But, I've never seen them not be available for a phone eventually, so I would stay on the lookout.
Ooops, did a quick look on ebay on found a cyan and black one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Blue-Origin...463?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item416480afd7. Guess these didn't come up on the Bing or Google search as they're the only ones. Better hurry
Can anybody tell if the speaker is included in that housing?

I would ask the guy who bought one.... assuming its the guy above on this thread?
Its hard to tell from the pic if the speaker is in there. There is the black square part that is off-center at the bottom where the holes are but its not easy to see if it is a speaker or not but it has two gold contacts next to it. You might try asking the seller a question.
interesting that they have a "Make an offer" button but it auto-declines as I just tried $45 and it fails instantly.

Based on the service manual in the following link, pages 19 & 20 it does appear to be included.

Lava red housing for sale?

Does anyone know where I can buy a lava red housing for the 5t? I bought a 5t when it launched but I love that red color. Was just gonna swap the housing if I could find anywhere that sold it in red. Any links or help? Would OnePlus sell me one if I asked??

Check out dbrand. They have some lava red skins.

I was hoping for the real thing and not a skin
So far I haven't had any issues with the finish on my on 5T (which is black), but I imagine if the red shows black spots underneath if the finish wears off it would be much worse. So while my favorite color maybe red, I think I'd just stick to black. Not to mention my phones are always in a case anyways. This is why I'd second the skin suggestion. Not to mention opening the device obviously has some risk as well.
I highly doubt OnePlus will sell you parts.
I was checking that out too.. went to a couple parts websites and eBay looking for a red housing and so far all I could find is the black one.
So I just bought the red one and gave my wife my black one.
I would still love the option to buy a red housing though so I can go caseless and just replace it once it gets scratched up.
I think swapping housings is a terrible idea.
1) there is the slight chance you might break something
2) there is a chance you'll compromise what little water resistance the glue provides
I'd just sell my phone and buy the one I want.
1. Get a skin
2. Get a red case
3. Next time buy the color you want
As mentioned previously I would never take apart my phone simply bc I wanted a new color and especially not if there want any physical damage I was hoping to get rid of. The phones sold out domestically and only on sale in Europe and China in red, I'm assuming the housing will be hard to come by.

Replacement Screen - Finally!

Hey guys,
I posted this in the general forum but thought I would share with this subset as well. I've polished and sanded my watch down to oblivion and I was dying to find a replacement bezel. I ran across this on aliexpress.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ori...3489-4c2a-acd6-843db467ef02&priceBeautifyAB=0
Initially they indicated that the button would require a special tool. After I corresponded with them, they indicate they will send me a case with the button. With the coupon, it cost me $14 shipped to make my watch brand new again. Disassembly looks easy enough that I'm going to give this a shot. Just thought some of you who had issues in the past, or have put your watch to the side, might want to know about this,
I recently bought a Gear S3, but there is something about the HW1 that is just so damn appealing and still stands out compared to all other smartwatches on the market. Hope this helped someone!
Your title says you bought a new screen but your post says you bought a new bezel.
I ordered the black case with the screen and button and replaced my scratched black case. All the parts are original and my watch looks like new again!
Disassembly was not that difficult, all you need is a size 3 torx en small phillips screwdriver.
I also bought the black parts and replaced the silver ones.
It looks so sick now!
Where i can get the black 4g Version one
Does s.o. know where i can get one of those for watch2 with a sim Slot in black?
Thx in Advance

Odd that one list it as "Original Full LCD Screen" where as the HW1 has an OLED screen.
I know buddy it mentions it as lcd screen but we all know you cannot manufacture a lcd for oled watch can you? So it is just for reference purpose you can contact further to the seller for in detail description of the replacement screen
