[Q]Does anyone know if there is white t-989 available, and if so are OE parts? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Does anyone know if there is actually a white t-989 available, and if so are OE parts available? I can do the parts change myself just don't know where to find them. Also not sure if the white face would be a diffuser or if its just an.insert of sorts... any help would be appreciated!

The white version isn't out yet and it'll probably take a few more weeks/months for the white housing to come along. there's a thread with "white galaxy" on the general forum. Ppl will probably post there when available

[Q]Anyone with the white Galaxy S II?

Does anyone have the white Galaxy S II? Im on the fence about either getting the black one or the white one. On the white one is it all chrome like how the UK version is? Can anyone post a picture? I've been searching and cant seem to find a good side shot.

[Q] Reliable to buy from?

Hey guys - in search for a case

Has anyone ever bought from this website and are they trustworthy?
http://www.trait-tech.com
It seems like this guy bought from there but he's in Singapore?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338809&page=2
Im based in the uk
Looking to create a certain effect:
I have a white s2, wanted a white/silver bumper with a textured backplate or i dunno, something unique
Let me know what you think of firstly the website and secondly the vision of what my phone will look like/ the colours that would look good with a new phone
Any input greatly appreciated
This topic is interesting for me, I haven't seen pictures of a white gs2 accessorised. I an bad with colour, and how a black/blue case would look on a white gs? Or should I stick with the white?
I think white/silver/grey really

[Q] Replacement HOX SIM Tray?

Does anyone know of a source that has OEM SIM trays for the HOX (specifically, the black one) for sale? I've found a few white ones on eBay, but so far nothing for what I'm looking for. Even non-oem would do at the moment, honestly..
Thanks in advance for your help.
Guess not.
could be a wile before we see them. if i was you i would go and try a sneak one off a demo phone. or you could try making a iphone one fit
Yeah, not gonna steal one. It's not for me, it's for a customer who claims he didn't get one with the phone we sent him. Impossible, but we can't exactly argue.
Not sure why there are so many white ones, but no black/gray.

Could get away with spray painting one black maybe? Atleast it would be a perfect fit...

Expansys selling a FULL white Gnex? Fake?

Exactly as said above, the entire Galaxy Nexus seems to be white, the digitialzer (which was always black before) is white also. Looks like a choppy image however, anyone bought it/planning on getting it and able to post pics?

The Expansys solds phone worldwide,and even Japanese buy some "imported" phones at their country.
Well,I suggest contact for more information,if U still not trust them,U should not buy.
That's all.
Expansys is a very well known website looks legit to me. You can always call to make sure its not an error/inaccurate picture.

Don't think this phone exists... I feel like they just accidentally took one of the photos that was made when the first rumors of the white model came out.
It may or may not exist. They could have colored it themselves, and are selling it off as completely white, or it's like martonikaj said.
Do not check "yes this is a question" unless you are posting in Q&A.
I took the [Q] out of the title since this is a more general topic
Thanks

We definitely did not color it ourselves However, we are discontinuing them. Have a few more than backordered on the way in, but then we wont be offering them anymore.

Hi Corey, thanks for responding.
Just curious, where did you get fully white GNs? I thought they were never manufactured? Is this the work of a third party custom job?
it says the item is discontinued to me
If you check YouTube, you'll see several reviews of full-white Gnex's. It's legit, apparently.

I'm not saying that they're scammers or anything, I'm asking if people have actually seen this, or that its a fake picture, and will come white like other Galaxy Nexii. U should use "you", that is all.

We get them from a few different suppliers actually. I've never opened one myself. It will be back live on the site shortly, for the few remaining ones. We bought a large amount on a closeout, and then got enough to cover our orders + a few extra. Seems someone discontinued it a bit to early so we fixed it. Will come back online soon.
I wonder who made them. They must be custom built... right?

White case, black face
I'm looking right this second at the white GN I bought from Expansys. The body of the phone is white (and gorgeous, might I add), while the front face is black. The photo on Expansys showed an entirely white phone, but I just assumed it was an incorrect photo. (And I was right.)
And, for what it's worth, it came with a UK (I believe? Definitely not standard USA) charger, and an adapter to fit it into a standard USA outlet.
Since it looks like one of the Expansys fellas is in this thread, thanks a lot. Really enjoying my purchase :]

Oh alright, thanks man! I was just confused and kinda hopeful at the same time.

I'm glad my purchase served a greater purpose than simply satisfying my annual gadget refresh compulsion :]
The photo on their page really is sort of confusing. But, given how many black-and-white shots and reviews I saw, I sort of went with Occum's Razor.
Really minor point, but definitely one that confused me for a bit too.
FWIW...I just ordered one the other day and it is white body with black face. I was hoping for something unique. But oh well. Still a pretty phone.
Awwww I was pretty excited as well.
Oh well, just buy a white skin and it'll look the same.

I9300 Housing DOES NOT fit I747 (confirmed inside)

Hey so I just got a I747 and I am loving it! The problem is it came in blue/it didn't come with a back door battery cover (I only paid $290 for it too!). Well I don't really like the pebble blue scheme, and prefer the white GS3. So I have been looking for the white housing and I have found it for the i9300, but will it fit the i747? One reason I am asking this is because AT&T uses the micro sim card on the i747, but does the i9300 also use a micro sim slot or a regular sim slot?
Here is a link the listing.

If you want we can still trade, but you would have to wait until the battery cover I order comes in, and the battery cover isn't the original one either :/

Can anyone confirm this please? I really want a white housing :/

I'm also interested in this. I bought the wife the white I9300 a few months back, I have a Red I747 in route and if I can I'd like to switch the housings for her so she can keep her international model and send the AT&T on back to my mom to use since we don't have 4G where we live. :good:

I can confirm that Yes the i9300 uses the micro SIM.
I'd yield to the more experienced folks on here about the casing being different. I'm sure if you dig around on Google you can find someone who will sell stickers to change the appearance or you can always put a case on it. Besides, unless you're really good, that's the type of hardware surgery that can become an epic fail!
Well here is a close-up of my i9300, they look the same to me.

I am pretty sure it isn't difficult to switch housing whatsoever, I have done it a couple of times in the past with my other phones.

I never listen to naysayers anyway, I always have to find out for myself. I'll find out in about 3 days when the Garnet Red GS3 I ordered arrives. :fingers-crossed:

Shouldn't be all that hard, just be careful because the plastic frame beneath the back cover holds the antennas, so a poorly fitted install or accidental jostling of the wrong parts on the motherboard can ruin the reception of the phone.
