If I told you guys I was making white housing for our Cappy's, would you guys be interested in buying it?
It's not available anywhere, but I made one for myself and it looks great!
I was thinking of charging $40.....trying to get some idea of how many people would be interested.
Let me know!

Just remember, if and/or when you start to sell these, you need to do it in the Marketplace, not here.
Just my own opinion here, but I'm not loving it. The fact that the sides are white, but the backplate is still black doesn't look good. The front would look better if the top and bottom were also white. It would make the whole thing look complete.
I like the concept but I think it needs to go further.
FWIW, I've always been a jet black gadget lover. I think it looks sleek and refined. White just always made me think back to the old white/beige PCs of yesterday.
i would absolutely buy one, ive been scouring the internet for them for months now
Top and bottom of the front white would look better. White lettering on the back too maybe?
ill buy for $40 maybe a bit more, it just past my bday so i gots money to spend.
Pm me if you want.....
40 seems a little expensive for my liking. And it looks like to me that all you were doing was just adding a vinyl skin ontop of the phone.
Although if you were to make one for the whole phone I think 20-30 would be more than enough of a fair price for one.
actually no, i bought official Samsung replacement housing from Japan, then put 6 coats of white plastic paint, followed by 3 coats of clear. took about a week altogether.

I agree that i think it needs to be more white, great idea though.
WHITE? ewwww.... just my 2cents.. now a matte black finish ill bite

maybe if it were actually white plastic and not just white paint, also the display would have to be white also cause it just looks ugly as of now
i love the white, but like the others on here i think the whole thing should be white. and if its a white paint and not plastic isn't there going to be a chipping issue overtime?
Green?
I dont mean to hijack this thread, but I was very interested in getting a different color housing for my captivate after viewing this. After searching for a few hours for colored housings online I just decided to try what you did with the white and buy my own paint and try it out! I went with an Android Green just to match my theme on my phone (I am due for an upgrade soon anyways). I will try to update with a picture of the finished productas soon as I am done!

well.. I was smart enough to put some clear tape over the outside of the camera lens, however when i flipped it over to get the edges I was not paying close enough attention and sprayed the inside. I was able to get the paint off pretty easily though.
I did an idiot move when putting my phone back together. I was using the phone with just the sd card to take pictures and left the card in the phone when trying to fit the housing back on.. needless to say I snapped the sd card in half and it no longer works :/
Edit: I'm not sure if I'm gonna say that I am done or if I should add another coat. However I am pretty happy with the color I just need to clean it up a bit! Let me know what you all think!

I think it'd be cool if you put a coat on everything that isn't the screen. To me it looks incomplete with the bottom of the phone(both front and rear) still black. Two coats probably isn't a bad idea! Maybe some gloss clear coat over the top to make it shiny? I like the android green choice though.

well this is actually with about 3 coats and 1 "gloss" coat. I'm not sure if I used the right paint. I used the "plastic paint" which probably takes a bit longer to dry. When putting it back together I kept pulling the paint from the tail part so I decided just to completely take the paint off of that part. Also I was thinking about painting the top and bottom of the front, however I did not want to risk covering the microphone hole and the inputs at the top. I think if I hadnt rushed through it so much then I could have had a better finished product.. good thing is these housings are around 8$ on ebay so I can just buy another one and give that one a proper try!

Prep work is 90% of painting. The actual painting part is very quick. You should have sanded better. It looks like the paint will dry and begin flaking off if it has not already.
Well one of my friends suggested I should "wet sand" it. I've personally never heard of that but he said it will make it look a ton better, so I guess I'll try that this afternoon.
Wet sanding= sanding with water to remove particles from the sandpaper.
Start with 200 grit to really clear off the paint. Then move to 400 grit. Then move to 800. Then clean with alcohol VERY WELL.
you want it to be flat and sanded down to 800 grit across the whole piece. Don't stop with 400 grit until all the green is gone. Use 800 to polish it. The rubbing alcohol is used to clean off any particles which may stick. Douse it in alcohol.
There are better ways.. but if you're going to do all of that, may as well use a nice metal flake paint and a clear coat from your auto parts store to get it really nice. If you do the clear coat, don't stick it in your pocket for a few days.
Also, time yourself on that 1 minute shake thing... trust me. Shaking is important. Longer is better. It helps the paint to dry properly and faster.
Ok, So I really wanted the new Samsung Galaxy S2 (Euro) because it has the white with that iphone look but much cool-er.
But forking out that money is a no no.
So after looking I found a white glass for the vibrant along with the white bezel you will get a 1 of a kinda white vibrant!!!!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/White-Outer...985?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cbeda8621
I just purchased it last night. I will purchase the white housing when I get back home and will see how it goes.
If anyone has this already please let me see some pictures
Ooh, update us on how that works for you. I know how to replace bezel/housing, but I don't know how to do JUST the glass since I think the digitizer is literally glued on. Pictures too! (My reaction to the EBAY listing: Holy ****ing ****! GAAAAAASP!)
If yours works out, I'm so getting one! I really wanted to updated to the S2 as well purely for aesthetic reasons but I heard it doesn't work well with Tmo 3g ):
I am interested in this too. Please get back to us and let us know how it went. I have broken glass and this would be the cheapest fix.
Glad that you're trying this as I kinda want to also. I've heard that the OLED and Digitizer are glued on so you can't just try to pry it off.
If I were trying it, I would try to take an exacto knife blade and cut carefully (oh so carefully) through the glue instead of trying to peel up the screen, which is really fragile. Do you have any kind of plan?
Unfortunately, there isn't much information out there on taking the screen glass off without replacing the whole screen so any info you can give will help out a lot of people who are interested in replacing cracked/scratched glass as well.
Best of luck and please let us know how it turns out!
i will be interested too please someone make a video
Well, One of my co-workers is going to do the job for me. I saw him tackle an IPhone 4 screen replacement too. I have in the past did replace some phone screens on a mytouch and mytouch 4g.
I will see about getting detailed pictures when he does the job. I'm going to be researching it here on out too. Downside is the time it takes to get here!!!!!
Do what you can about tutorial, video or pictures, what ever it may be. I saw this a bought one immediately. I already have a nice back cover in white that has Samsung and Powered by Google on it, so thought this would be an excellent pair.
Let us know
Is it even possible to just replace the glass without the digitizer? I thought it was almost a single unit and you would have to replace both.
I would really like to know.
Just to let you guys know, the listing looks like it has a hole for the FFC. It would be a problem for those with it, but it might irk those without it.

That's nothing a little dab of white paint couldn't fix.
...also, why would it be a problem for people WITH the front facing camera? Seems ideal to me.
Seeing as the glass/digitizer-lcd is nearly impossible to separate with both intact, I was just thinking of gluing the glass to a screen protector, then applying that on the phone. Finish off with a hard case or silicone that covers the bezel (and a little of the phone so it also covers the edge of the glass (which I'm sure will be raised higher due to just putting it on top), and voila!
Having this succeeded would seriously help. I'm this close to just getting the Intl SGS2, but ahh, it wont work with Tmo past Edge .. ;_;
Anyone ever tried/seen a white bezel? Sand it down, paint it? I've seen a gold bezel, but that's about it. Wow, white and gold

You are saying that you'd have a screen protector on top of a stack of two screens? I'd say that's an idea you shouldn't pursue, one because you're going to ruin the quality of the image you see, and two, you won't be able to touch your digitizer on the lower screen. Screen no workie!
If you've got to have a white border and you're not willing to get the whole shebang replaced, I'd say go with some cut vinyl. That's the cheapest route (time and money investment) that you could take. It would be interesting to see a white bezel. (the white Samsung Fascinate was so nice!) It seems like it would be paintable once you scuff up the surface. I just decided to find a solid white tpu case and it looks great in it. Covers the bezel perfectly.

Hm, you're right. Didn't think about the screen quality after two glasses/protectors ;_; I've tried the vinyl cut-out but after a while, I started to really notice/feel the edge of the vinyl when I'm swiping things around. So I really want to try the glass lens.
I'm going to look up that solid white tpu! I've only ever seen transparent TPUs
So is there anyway to really use this?
UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I recieved the glass.
Now, I want to try this so bad but Im need to be smart about this or I won't have a working phone.
I need to try this on a non working phone. If anyone still has or knows anyone with a screen with glass that is broken. Please let me know.
I will try and remove the OLED screen from it and see if it can be done.
Ooh, can you post pictures? I want to see how thick the glass is
Ha, this sounds like quite the project. I'll be anxious to see photos.
And it would probably look something like this to get it done:

Too much work.
This mod wouldn't work unless you know how to attach a digitizer onto a glass screen, also check the listing again - the glass comes without a flex cable soldered on.
My GF broke the screen on her Droid Incredible, Verizon insurance wants $100 to replace it, so not sure it is worth it for this phone, and she has a few months left before her upgrade is ready. If i am going to try to fix it for her, can anyone with experience tell me what parts specifically I would need? The LCD seems fine, so i would think i can replace just the digitizer, which i can get on Amazon for $16
http://www.amazon.com/Incredible-Sc...ement-Adhesives/dp/B005TGX6X8/ref=pd_cp_cps_0
They also sell with front housing
http://www.amazon.com/Touch-Screen-Glass-Digitizer-Incredible/dp/B005L0XRRM/ref=pd_cp_cps_1
any tips which to buy or what to do etc?
Why would one/How does one know if they need to replace the LCD as well?
All touch aspects of phone working fine and seems like it's just the glass cracked.

I am no expert, but it would seem that if anything under the glass was broken, you would need to replace the lcd (that is, if you could see the lcd "leaking" or being distorted)

Unfortunately I have had the pleasure of replacing my digitizer twice. You definitely wanna buy it WITH the frame or housing. The adhesive is like industrial strength and you will end up breaking the original anyways when trying to remove the digitizer from it. I have to warn you that doing this repair yourself will void your warranty. Make sure the digitizer you get comes with the tools required to get the phone apart. You can get this as a package on eBay fairly cheap too. There are about 3-4 circuit strips that will have to be removed from their clips, don't be intimidated by them, but be gentle. Your first time is gonna take you a while, just be patient. If you need to do it a second time, its gonna be a breeze. PM me if you have any concerns during your repair.
yea get a digitizer also,
I had the same thing happen to me, it was a pain but there are a few videos on youtube
that should help you through it, though it doesn't sound like its that bad
Definitely go with the digitizer and housing replacement together. Bottom line, it will make your life so much less of a headache while replacing it.

I just replaced mine this weekend. I attached some before, during, and after pictures...
These were the guides that I followed:
Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfpPS7oO4Q8
Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJMAmKpk20c
Personally, I went with just the glass/digitizer (your first link) and it went fine. The glass is difficult to get out of the housing, but it's not that bad. It probably took me 20 minutes to get the old glass out, maybe 5 minutes of cleaning goo from the old adhesive, and probably another 5 minutes to put the new glass back on.
Some Tips:
The pry tool that comes with it is very cheap. I would suggest using it sparingly until you get to the LCD panel extraction and glass removal. You want it to be as in good of condition as can be when you get to those later steps.
Use a blow-drier to heat up the adhesive, and get it to the point where you almost cant touch it. I used some yellow kitchen gloves so I could get it a little hotter and still be able to hold it. I used a combination of my hands and the pry tool and worked mostly along the sides and top first, then separated the bottom last.
The guy in the youtube videos uses glue, but you shouldn't need that. It comes with pre-cut adhesive strips, which work great. One word of caution though... The sheet that they come on is scored for you, but I suggest using an x-acto to cut them out. This is especially important for the thin rectangle that goes around the outside of the glass. You really don't want to pull on that... you don't want it to get stretched or twisted. Summary: the strips work great, just be careful extracting them from the sheet they come on, and placing them on the phone.
Don't forget to get the red earpiece grill off of the old glass before throwing it away. You'll need to super glue that back onto the housing, but it's really easy to see where it goes. This should be the only thing you need glue for.
When removing the glass, cleaning up gunk from the old adhesive, and applying new adhesive, be careful of the electronics at the bottom for your capacitive buttons... you definitely don't want to harm or obstruct those.
This should probably go without saying, but make sure not to touch the inside of the new glass, or the LCD panel. You don't want fingerprints or dust inside the phone. Even if you don't touch it, I would still give it a shot of compressed air right before putting it in, just to make sure there's no dust.
I would say that it's probably worth the extra $10-12 bucks to get it with the housing already included, but it's definitely not necessary if you want to save a little money. As I said above, it only took me about a half hour to get the old glass out and the new glass in, and from what it sounds like, there is still some effort involved even if you get it with the housing (moving the circuitry from the old one). I wouldn't worry about breaking the frame... it's pretty strong. If you break it, you're doing it wrong. Although, if your frame has some scrapes and other assorted road rash on it like mine does (see first picture), then maybe you might want a new one anyway. Another consideration... the reviews on Amazon for the one without the housing are much better, but that could just be because of people who don't know what they're doing... who knows.
If you have any questions, I'd certainly be willing to help... PM me if you want. And if I'm going to be around when you go to actually do the replacement, I can give you my gchat address in case you have any questions during the process.
The question is: is it possible to change the full housing to black? I have a white SGS2 but it has scratches all over... Also that silver edge is pretty much damaged from falls.
I was browsing around and found out that there are full housings for sale, but what about the amoled screen if I want to change the phone color?
Thanks in advance!

The screen is mounted to the frame (midsection of the casing, which is integrated with bezel) by a sticky tape -- ~1.5 mm wide all around the perimeter, and in some areas in the middle. When you buy a complete casing, it comes with the tape attached, so it's ready for you to mount the screen onto it. It will also show you where exactly the tape is located under the screen. The tricky part is do detach the screen from your old casing. Usually, it's done by heating it (carefully!) with a hot air gun, or even a hairdryer -- it will soften a glue layer and allow you to pry off the screen without cracking it. It's not that difficult, but if you are not comfortable doing it yourself, seek some help from an experienced person -- an electronics repair guy, or a seasoned DYI'er. However, keep in mind that sh*t happens, and there is still a chance to break the screen in the process, or fry it by overheating...
Thanks for the answer, kt-Froggy.

I can only tell you where I bought mine... Not sure how trustworthy this source is, but it worked for me. I usually buy my stuff on Amazon. I searched for it, and ordered from this supplier (I was getting another item from them, so it was good to combine shipments). Delivered faster than promised, looked and worked as advertised, no problems with quality, so I was happy with it.

Looks promising... There's something else I should add. I'm using Samsung's original extended 2000mAh battery, so I should also look for the extended back cover which is different from the original one.

I just stumbled upon this when I was fixing up my fingernails. I wondered to myself if the polish side of the multi-step nail filers would buff out scratches. So, I tried and it got rid of every single scratch on the sides and top of my G4. Thought I'd share it with the community. Hopefully everyone knows what I'm talking about. I can take a picture of what it looks like. Be careful not to use any of the other abrasive sides. I'm not sure what the material is made up of, so be warned that if they're all made differently. I just figured some users would appreciate it for resale value or just reviving the frame of the phone.
EDIT: Now that I look at it a little closer, you can still see some of them, but it cleaned them up very nicely.The longer I do it, the more scratches disappear. Worked nicely on the plastic cover over the laser as well.

If you go into a retailer, go to the beauty section and look for something that has something that says step 1, step 2, step 3, etc. The last step of the filer is supposed to polish/shine nails. Sometimes they will look like a block of foam with 4 sides.

I hope that from here on out, all LG flagships will include as much metal as possible. The ONLY complaint I really have is the easily scratched frames and lens glass cover. I was never the type of person to shun plastic phones, because they can look as good as metal and it doesn't hinder the phone's actual performance, but now that I've had the G2 and G4, I'd like to see more durable construction, given that the phones are fairly expensive.

Hopefully, that was the reason I used to always owned Motorola because of the like a tank build quality until the non-removeable battery models were just glued on back covers that came off when the battery got swollen, maybe it's a safety design.
I've still no idea what you're talking about OP, can you elaborate? I'm getting a case for mine soon and it'd be nice to get some of these surface level scratches out beforehand.
Also confused and interested.

I Have said this for years. Sucks how information gets lost in the abyss. I started doing this back in my Droid 2 days. Once I got a galaxy nexus, I even began using some acrylic filler and buffing that as well.
I do get what you mean, with those 4 in one (or more commonly 3 in 1) nail files, its super easy to make a mistake. Just go to sallys beauty supply where you can buy the shine files separately. I would advise taping the display with masking tape if you do not use a screen protector.
