Remove carrier branding. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

Anybody know of a good way to remove the branding on the back cover without scratching it?

I cant imagine theres a definite way to do this without harming the device somehow. Obviously scratching it off has its risks and using a chemical or solution has its. Safest route is to buy a back cover off eBay. That said, I would assume using something like a micro fiber cloth that wont scrath it, but that you can create friction with might work. Cant guaruntee it will get everything off though. Good luck.

You could just purchase a back for the GT-N7100 that has no branding.

Bezel change

I would like to ask if theres a way to change the upper bezel(right next to the glass section)... the chromed part. I obviously dropped it on the ground and didnt even have time to put a case on it. Thanks.

I dont think you can as of yet i tried searching and couldn't find any aftermarket bezels, my suggestion is to get a case that covers everything and youll never see it, the trident aeigis is nice its what i have

I had one on my s2 i loved it but i gotta say i like the trident better because it has port hole covers keeps dust and humidity out, ive been turned down warranty replacement because they said i dropped it in water, when i never did, it was just humidity from savannah and my pocket

this is not my company, they have partnered with Me and i am just promoting their product
They are $30 online with free shipping. they come in black, white, green, red, yellow, and much more!

I've seen this and reviews a while back but it's not my cup of tea... Though I can say that for anyone other than past loyal customers $30 is probably too high a price. Cost of materials can't be more than $5-$10. I'm really not trying to be **** either just stating my 2¢
Sent from my Sprint GS3
honestly you're right. $30 is a bit high for an accessory. if i were in charge I'd sell for max $15

I agree, tis a bit spendy.
yeah exactly. i couldn't agree more @

The product isn't worth $30 but they have a patent pending on it. I own one and i have to say, i love using it. I swapped back to my old Incipio Sillicrylic because I was in an environment that need the extra cover. After I got home, i swapped back to the Flygrip right away. I like that it doesn't bulge my phone up all around and i can touch every part of the screen without feeling that i'll slip the phone through my hands and end up in mud/water/concrete. It took me a while to get used to putting my fingers through it. in the end, i'm satisfied.
It's a little steep in price, but I was more than willing to pay for it and might buy another since mine is just slightly large. It is really useful and I get so many comments on it. Plus it's really cool that it doubles as a stand in both landcape and portrait modes. My only regret is that it definitely means it will be inconvenient to do the wireless charging hack and I think it might interfere with Google wallet. In the wireless charging hack the phone must sit flush with the charging pad and it may be the same with using Google wallet to pay via PayPass. I'm still looking into that last one.
yeah that's my only complaint as well and if it interferes with S Beam, etc

do you know if having the FlyGrip on affects the use of NFC or Beam

I've just tested last night with my girlfriend's S3 and it works perfectly fine. She has the Incipio Sillicrilic case and I had my Flygrip. even though that 1+ cm distance from both phones, i've sent a song and a few pictures successfully.
$29.95.
WOW....... Price is ridiculous. I usually pay for an over priced item now and then for something I am interested in but the price on the FlyGrip is really pushing it. Most defiantly passing on this product!
That was my issue I wasnt sure if NFC still would work. And I dont know if it will stick to my Otter box

the double sided tape is from 3M so it should stick no problem unless the outer shell is soft. but that's going to be pretty thick attaching the flygrip to it. i'm using the flygrip solo and it feels very secure. i haven't dropped my phone(knock on wood).
No offense, but I lol'd when I saw it. I lol'd again when I saw the price.
Hahaha yeah its pretty expensive for an accessory'

I found one on Craigslist for $16 about a month ago. It was an ugly yellow and Flygrip swapped it out for white.
I would pay for the customer service alone.

Broken screen + Big dents in bezel.

It happened yesterday, i knew it would happen at some point...
Anyone know how much it will cost me? The device is still working fine, but i have no idea for how long it will..
It's pretty funny actually, i was thinking about buying a case, a few hours later my phone fell on the ground.
So, any cheap repair options and useful cases for the future?
Visit cnn.cn I've bought from them before and have no complain. You'll find the rear housing for around $10 and if your screen still responds to touch and asking as your amoled is intact then you probably just need to replace the front glass which is also cheap and around the rang of $10 - $20. However, if your amoled or digitizer is unresponsive then the whole screen assembly would cost you around $320. Good luck.

How to remove chrome from the bezel?

So I've got a pretty scratched up bezel and I imagine the phone would look even better if it was all white. So is there any way to get the entire chrome off without damaging or scratching the under lying plastic?

I don't mean taking the phone apart. What I do want to do is to get rid of the chrome paint only.

The bezel is actually the back housing after removing the battery cover and the 11 screws after which u can scratch off the chrome part without damaging yr screen, but u will not like the looks of yr SGN2, cos my buddy did it on his note 1. U will end up with a scratchy plastic bezel:laugh::laugh:.U will be better off buying the OEM part which should cost less than $30 and u ve a brand new looking phone.
Funny how it easily falls off by itself but when u try to remove it it can be a *****
