Anybody know where to find a replacement back cover for a Gen 1? I just replaced my battery, and everything went fine except for the back cracking. None of the sites I've checked have them in stock, and I doubt they'll be getting more. Moto won't sell the back, and I don't feel like sending to them for $ervice.

So despite every effort to keep my shiny new atrix shiny and new, it has taken 2 major spills out of my truck when exiting the vehicle. Big lift + big tires = LONG fall to the ground, which has resulted in a few scratches/scuffs to the battery cover (which I swear doesnt fit proper now ).
Do they have replacement covers out yet? Stock, that is? I am going out tomorrow and buying a beast of a case for this thing. I'm hoping the cover is just a little tweaked and none of the actual phone body is messed up so with a new cover it will fit just fine again.
I saw them for sale on the Bell website, and it seemed like they were in stock.... I'll have to look for the thread...
eh...they have original and ruggedized battery covers on their website.
Bell Atrix Accessories
does it appear the bell cover is branded as "bell" or is ut just branded with motorola? i havent even taken the sticker off the back of my phone yet but the case is slightly tweaked from the fall so I would like to replace it.

They should just be branded Motorola since they are OEM parts
I have one on the way currently from Motorola. I called their support told them I had scratched mine and asked them about buying one since the website does not currently list them. After a few moments the lady on the phone told me they were waiving the warranty exception and were going to send me one for free.
Support number was: 1-866-289-6686
can we get those Hybrid Cases in the states
Those cases are awesome. is it possible to get them in the states?
Lifted truck + phone in lap = fugged up. Ask my iPhone. It got 4 replacement screens haha. My Atrix got a case before it got out of the box! You are from GMfullsize right? Name looks familiar.

Before I clicked the thread I saw your username as the last post haha. on GMFS too.
I am going to possibly see if I can get the whole phone swapped at costco since for whatever reason the battery life has all of a sudden gone to hell in a hand basket. It was at 90% when I went to bed 8 hours ago and I woke up and it was at 60%.

With my note 8 still running about fine, no direct successor in sight and the software (pa) still acceptable I was thinking of giving my Note a little check up. After 3 years of daily usage and carrying it around in my bag, there only seem to be two issues with it. 1. The battery lost a bit of its stamina 2. There are several cracks in the back cover (3. Also a few cracks in the silver bezel but I assume that's harder to replace) .
So my question is if anybody has replaced these parts and can guide me to a good shop or a specific brand. Since I need to replace the back cover anyway, I thought maybe there is even an Extended Battery*option
Combo for the note around somewhere (sth like this).
I found a few batteries on the Web but had bad experiences with no name batteries and couldn't find a shop that sells the back cover...

I bought my battery for my Note 8 when I first got it. I purchased the battery from Amazon. Here's the one I bought and I mostly play games on it. It's not bad battery wise overall, I still have the original one. Taking the back cover off isn't hard but this specific battery came with the tools to replace it which helped tremendously since the screws are super small

I would replace the charge port as well. I just did a battery and charge port replacement on mine and if fixed an issue that made the tab unusable.

Personally I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it myself. Mine doesn't seem to present any issues, I bought mine used from someone on Craigslist

hey guys
just replaced my battery, and the watch is back up and running but it did have a cracked back before the repair, which of course when removing to repair just broke into 3 pieces :/
i have quickly searched ebay, aliexpress (they did have them, but no currently not available) doh
i am in the uk, anyone know where i can source one?
so close to having my watch back off life support lol
Been searching again, there isn't even a third party version :/
Any advice would be great
Happy new year to you all
the userquick update i am still not having any luck, i have messaged a seller on aliexpress that used to sell them, will keep you all update.
i did find a seller, but the price is crazy this is the link https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free-Shipping-Back-Housing-Cover-For-Motorola-Moto-360-Cover-Case-Battery-Door-For-Moto-360/32652754303.html?spm=2114.01010208.3.1.b4HcxE&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_4_10065_10068_10000009_10084_10083_10080_10082_10081_10110_10111_10112_10060_10113_10114_10062_10056_503_10055_10054_10059_10099_501_10078_10079_10000012_10103_10073_10102_10000015_10096_10052_10053_10107_10050_10106_10051,searchweb201603_9,afswitch_2,single_sort_3_default&btsid=46806dcd-e5f7-48b2-aa9b-fc9da640b3d1
Yea its very annoying. I want to replace the battery on mine, but even my buddy who is used to removing stuff stuck with adhesive says mine will crack under the pressure of removing it.
Found this
https://www.google.ie/url?sa=t&rct=...hFsAMyQTDVs0tQZuQ&sig2=F3qSETGQxKOqWTix_gOMJA
But its brings the cost for me (In Ireland) to over 30 dollars
still too pricey for a bit of plastic
Ye I am having no luck either :/ I did check your link it does seem to be working...
I have been looking for damaged/faulty motos on ebay to see if I can salvage a back off one :/
I bought the oneplus 3 the day it launched. It hasn't cracked or so but the display seems to be coming out of the body. Should I fix that and at the same time get a new battery or should i get a new phone?
I bought mine also the day it launched. Couple weeks ago i cracked my Display so i decided to replace it, the battery and backcover as well. I paid around 150$ for everything.
But in the last days i think about to buy the 6T. Personally i think you notice that the phone isnt working as smooth and fast as it was at the beginning. Hard decision cause i love the 3.
It is better to go for a new phone if you can afford it. The main reason for this recommendation is that many persons who replaced the screen faced issues. If in doubt, search here in XDA.
yeah i had some issues too, because at first i bought a cheap china display on ebay, the change was easy, nothing too difficult but i can recommend you replacebase for parts. Dont buy the cheap stuff.
I would like to buy a Note 10 plus. Thought about buy a new tmobile variant on ebay off a seller that has 2k sales but have read you may get screwed as they may get locked out if reported stolen. Would it be possible to buy the Unlock variant and flash tmobil firmware on it? Been looking at some threads, it looks like it's possible but I dont know enough to be 100% and maybe someone can tell me. Maybe I'll buy a Amazon Renewed one and flash it if possible otherwise my only other option would be to spend 700 on Ebay and hope it's not a return or some other open box form.
Don't understand your problem...you want an unused/new phone from ebay?
I bought recently 2 note 10+ from ebay and both arrived safely and are working fine. Both came with their box and are about 1 year old. The 1st one is a black one and has some light screen burn on the lower part of the display only visible when watching a light image or video. Except for that it has good battery life and is cosmetically in very good condition.
The 2nd one I bought very cheap, came with both the display and rear glass cracked but in good working order. I replaced the display including the frame and rear glass. The display came with a new OEM battery. Its now a converted aura glow into a white one. Except for its main board, camera's etc its a new phone.
I bought the new display for the first one but then decided that the screen burn was not enough to replace that good working screen, I hardly notice it so the idea came to buy a damaged one and repair that one...Have not decided which one I keep. Maybe the misses will give up her note 9 and take one of the note 10's.
When buying of ebay look at the pictures, ask for a invoice and see how the seller replies to your questions. I bought many phones, computer, watches etc, all high dollar items and have never been disappointed. If its to good to be true walk away, nobody will give you presents in this society!
