but I don't want to touch the red back yet may by later I will try
I have an OEM black battery cover for sale, just in case anyone wants to do this
Man, that's pretty awesome. Since I've seen the red Nexus 5, I've been meaning to get one.
Where did you order the black back? I want to order a red back for my black one if I can
U can get them of ebay or from the LG SC, Here it cost approx 3$ from the authorized LG sc.

Only $3? And the wireless charging works fine? Also, the vibrating motor is in the back cover so it would have to have that as well.

Yeah I went to sc and asked want a new white back and paid then INR 183/- approx 3$.
I have the black version but I'm using the red spigen case which makes it looks pretty similar. I really love the looks of it.

That'll still cost me $200....the phone is, what, $550 at BB? (it was $699 at launch). That gives me $350 of buy-back credit. Then I also have to cough up another $40 (or $60) to get another round of buyback...so now we're up to $250 ish.....
I'll take the replacement chassis.
So does the white version have hardware changes? There were some threads earlier saying it might have a different audio processor.
Why not just get a white TPU case or something? Or a white battery cover when those become available? The medly of colours would be cool.

I posted a thread a while back asking if the white version might come with the superior wolfson dac found on the original epic. Anyone with any info?
Does this mean original Epic 4G Touch sales were successful enough to warrant manufacture of a white version?
My wife has the AT&T white Skyrocket. It's nice but I dislike the glossiness & the faux chrome bezel.
If Sprint can keep it matte & omit that fake chrome it will be one sexy beast (so to speak)
After looking at some pics of one obtained by the peeps at Pocket Now, it appears (though hard to tell) that it might be matte & instead of the chrome bezel has a silver one instead.

I hope if some one does find a place to buy the shell of white they post it. Has any one actually taken all the plastic shell off? Hope it doesnt require specialised tools or have a hang up like part of it being connected to the screen or mic/speaker being glued onto the shell

Due to the construction of our screen we probably would be stuck with a black front.

Dead pixel? Stuck pixel? Something else? Time to return? *sadface* The other stuff are bubbles from my crappy screen protector. Also it doesn't stick one color. Can't see it on black, but on green it's greenish, blue it's bluish red etc.

Did they replace that part or the entire phone? The digitizer has no light producing parts. I think that was a hot spot in your back light to be honest.

Brand new phone at the store. I thought it was a hot spot/pixel but screen was fully black when off. Usually hot pixel still shows. Either way not sure what happened to it exactly.

Hmm guess that article was wrong hah. I've delt with dead/stuck pixels before guess that's the first hot spot. Either way I only had the device for 3-4 days before it happened.

So I got my brand new sealed Huawei watch this morning for Christmas and absolutely love it. However after tinkering and setting it up I noticed the watch face was slightly turned left.... Anyone else see this??
My options now I think are to, call Huawei directly and get a replacement. Or I go to local best buy, buy one, swap the actual watch and return. I can't return from purchaser since it was a gift etc etc rabble rabble..

Call me unethical but I would probably go the Best Buy route. Obviously just return it in the Best Buy box so the numbers match on the box. They may only have the leather band version, but obviously just swap the band too. If you go the Huawei direct route you are sure to get a return / refurb.
I just got myself one for Christmas. I went with BH Photo. $309, no tax, free overnight shipping. I threw on the same watch face that you have on yours in the photo and mine is dead on. Yours is definitely off.

Hey! So today i received my Pixel XL today. So far i'm pretty happy ^^ but a thing that bothers me when i got it was the charge-brick. I have seen some videos on YouTube showing that u get a white brick with a black top (on the Quite-black Pixel, the one i have) But when got mine it was a rosegold one with a blue circle light on top when its plugged in. So what's up with that? Is it normal that i received that one or should i have received the white one? I bought this phone from a "electrical store" that sells all kinds of electronics

The one you received is not an official charger. The official OEM charger is the white one with the black top that you were describing.
