Alright for everyone that wondered and to prove I'm a man of my word plus I cant develop too well I thought I'd give back to the community so here it is and enjoy!
Steps: just scratch the hell outta your speaker. I used an old hinting knife. No I don't hunt I live in the suburbs of DC.
Credit to xSaint who has a thread here so I knew about this.
Well that's it I hope I have given something to the community that I can be recognized for haha jk but it does look pretty bad ass! Will put my pics up in a minute my I didn't know i couldn't upload them from my phone.
EDIT: see third post for pics! and thanks to the devs for all your hard work in making these phones worth keeping forever!
YeH. We did this on the mesmerize GS and it did look pretty cool. It gives a little contrast to the upper part of the phone.
well couldn't get it in original so i just made another post with the pics

OMG your poor phone. Maybe a using a razor would have made it come out looking clean? You can. Always take black nail polis and make it black again. Or hobby model paint...
And you DEFINATELY gave something back to the XDA community to remember you buy. Its ok man. I slaughtered my HTC Evo 4g also. We all make mistakes. Ill take a picture and upload it to take the heat off you
Just so the op isn't alone.
A self-portrait, so not even good quality.
I may take some silver polish to it later.
Here is my Evo 4g that i took a razor blade to the corners and scratched all the black off so the red undercoating was visible. Oh i didnt have any place to take the photo in my room so i just took it on my girlfriend who was too busy watching senior citizen flash mod you tube video's on her GSII to even notice lol
Well if you guys live around northern va shoot me a PM. I'm a tech for sprint so I can change the housing or anything on your phone if need it. I guess a lot of people got offended by my post of this but I'm glad there's still people out there that aren't all about bashing. Opinions opinions

Well i personally think its awesome you did it. Like i said i went for the leap my self and razored my evo. From about 5ft away it looks awesome, but up close you could see it was not lookin so hot. What i was trying to say about the paint is you can go around the edges with the nail pollish or hobby paint and tiuch it up EVER so slightly and it would take out the MINOR defects. Idk back in the day mt dad did model cars and stuff. Seems like kids and younge adults these days dont physically mod things so much. I love doing so though. You only live once right? Besides we alk get the latest and greatest phones to start fresh with every year or 2. Cruckus man, i may just bust out my shinny new razor soon and give it a shot. The idea is sweet brother
Yea i thought it was cool I saw someone ask for someone to do it so I said "what the hey I'll do it" I was bored but I don't think it looks that bad it looks better then the cracked screens that some people have!

Not to be rude, but is this really your definition of an "awesome look"?:
I mean, this looks like something a kid would do to his phone when he was bored in d-hall or something.
If someone did THAT to my phone, we would definitely be "going outside" to settle things, know what I mean?
It's kinda awful.

Doesn't look as bad when done carefully and neat ... but i see your point
To each his own I guess ... I like the way it did mine .. not a scratch anywhere on the glass took me an hour with a razor blade and some scotch tape
I think it looks pretty cool from far away when using my phone normally it doesn't look bad its when you get real close but who stares into an earpiece? It's like people who buy ripped jeans some think its dumb others think it looks cool. I also said I did it with an old hunting knife because I don't have a razor blade. I'm sure someone can do it better then me.
Just a note, its surrounded by Gorilla Glass, so unless you're really wrenching on the blade this isn't too intensive of a project.

So it looks good to everyone else, but looks like crap to the owner of the phone?

Oh boy, did I just have the worst luck in the world ever. I showed my phone to someone for a few minutes at my internship. Afterwards I took it personally from him and went for the bathroom. When arriving back I noticed I had pen marks all over my phone. Blue pen marks, on the casing AND the screen. I could kill the guy right there and I punched him, real bad. Threatened him to pay me 450euro for my phone, but who is gonna force him? Anyway, it was end of the workday, so I headed home and showed it to my mom. She was pissed off as well. So a few minutes later she came in with a perfect looking clean shoe. I didn't realize instantly, nut then it hit me. I was dreaming! I woke up and was happy as hell.
So you punched him for some marks...
and i imagine that if he had dropped it, you were really going to kill him.
Hell, it's just a cellphone...

haha this **** is just like siri!! thanks bro
I agree! I really like it -- the best was the night we were testing it and my 10 year old walked up and said "Fart" -- the phone responded "You should really learn some manners!"
It doesn't always respond with the same answer, but the look on my kids face was priceless!!
Nice. also jeannie is another app similar to this and pretty good

Last night I had a dream I was playing with my phone but it was all melted looking but still functional. I've had other dreams where im trying to talk to someone, I can hear a voice but can never understand what they're saying. Anybody have weird dreams that are phone related?
I see that you started an entire new thread to discuss the exact same subject that already had a thread on the pretense of providing a different link that you could have shared in that one. Is that what you "did" or am I missing something more subtle and clever?
One op already changed his title. Ill edit it make another discussion I wanted to start anyway.
Clearly all chips in relation must transfer all diodes in harmony.
I dream about getting laid on piles of money. If my phone jumped in there and tried to distract me....I would have to end its life.
Does stuffing them in a sock and beating Dan Hesse till he fixes data speeds count?
Los Angeles data speeds 130k down, barely measurable up? I get better speeds in Tijuana. That is putting ice sculptures in the McDonald's bathroom.

I haven't had a dream I was flashing a ROM yet, maybe if I do ill admit I have an addiction.
Not that I care what others think, but is anyone else sick of hearing the same "I could never carry around something that big" reaction from people. Everytime someone I know sees my phone for the first time I feel like I immediately have to defend it by showing them how it still fits perfectly in my pockets and how other phones are too small for me. Its mostly iphone users. I bet if they spent a couple days using my phone they would probably never go back to their small "squint to read on" screen.
Yeah, but after I show them the bells and whistles, and show them how great browsing the Web is our watching a video, they usually go...Wow...that is nice! I don't have to squint to see the screen. And that is why I got it!
Its just the green eyed monster talking. Ignore it.

Seriously, people who say that are just jealous. A genuine reaction is like... look how big it is, makes mine look small, etc.
Everyone I work with has an iphony. Once they realized how Superior my phone is over theirs they left me alone, lol.. However there is still one fool who now likes to say that I carry a "flat screen". His comment is so pathetic it speaks for itself. I constantly show YouTube and HD clips to everyone I work with now.. They secretly Love my Phone. I also let them know that I have Truly unlimited everything from T-Mobile for $77 a month. Lmao!
I show them the quadrant scores and giggle at their reaction. ^^.
I say that at least I've got a phone and a tablet. It is the best of both worlds in one device.
I love it.

My standard answer is: look isn't that cool, my screen is bigger than your whole phone, so much more viewing area.
I get this a lot too but the size just feels normal to me now, I can't really use anything smaller(that's what she said). My ex had an iPhone 4 & it felt like a toy, I couldn't even type on it. I honestly wonder how people use anything smaller than 4.3 inches anymore. Boy, this is just one big long **** joke, huh >.<
I couldnt agree with this more
I rarely get that now. When I told people I was getting it they said that. But after I shoeed them an HD video, they all wanted one. Until I told them how much it costs.

i agree with all the pluses everyone has pointed out. after i explain to people that its better than lugging around a tablet, you dont have to squint, after showing them the multitasking split screen and bells and whistles they leave impressed. the main question or comment i get is "its so big it looks silly holding it up to your ear" to which i point out that i never ever even with a smaller screened phone held it up to my ear and that i always use a good bluetooth headset, so that point is moot for me.
I have coarse beard hair and sometimes oily skin which ruined my earlier phones screens so its been bluetooth all the way. :laugh:
This phone draws a lot of attention its way and it's always been good attention. Everyone wants to see it or hold it and every single time that person wants to know where to get one and how much.

My uncle is exactly like that. He said the phone is too big for him and that he can't fit it in is girly pants. He went ahead and bought an iphone 5. Started showing it off to me saying look how small and perfect it is. He then said that the screen resolution is so clear that when he watches youtube the video looks bigger..... buwahahaha! I know, I know. Then I accidently dropped my Note 2 on top of his iphone 5 and crushed it to bits. :highfive:
I think of it as the worlds smallest tablet, not the worlds largest phone.

Sent from my SM-N910T using Tapatalk
it's snakehead. From the pictures it looks like a real snake skin that they left the head on and is plopped in the middle of the back. I'm hoping it's big enough to use as a stand. I was on the fence about ordering one, but damn, this is just bat s__t crazy.
Wtf
Well they probably ate the meat
These have been available for a good few years, if you have interest in these, do check if they are genuine snake or fake, If they are real snakes do check with customs and cites, it's illegal to import these without a permit and approval certificate from cites.
And since the shops does not have approval for these, it's unlikely you can get approval from cites.
