**jmwerkus** · 04-11-2010, 06:08 PM

that looks EXACTLY like mine...

**mikerlx** · 04-11-2010, 11:02 PM

Excellent, I would put it in a case or Zagg that badboy to keep it perfect!

**Mars478** · 04-12-2010, 08:26 PM

Yeah i keep mine in an iLuv clear case. I want to lick it.

Here what i did to an iphone i got for free that was dropped in water and damaged. The iphone wasnt working so I took it apart and painted the back cover using krylon fusion paint. Only thing is not sure what to do and get it on my phone(afraid to take my apart). 1st photo is what i did 2nd one is the lcd screen that is cracked one issue that i know of.

If only there was a metal back with a black bezel and black apple logo. That would be sick.

A metal back might look good - you just wouldn't ne able to use it as a phone...

BAM! Minus the apple logo this would be sweet.

**whereswaldo** · 05-01-2010, 08:18 PM

where do you buy these cases?

**confucious** · 05-02-2010, 04:20 AM

That film was posted on Engadget on 24/2/10 - so only a couple of months old.

**wannabprogramma** · 05-02-2010, 08:54 AM

that film was actually just a post on this forum that got popular but then people from other forums and the people from enGadget saw it and made posts on their websites saying he faked the pics and was a cheater so he made that video to prove i...but things have been quite from him recently...

i believe this was made by himself. pretty expensive if i recall.

**wrcsti** · 05-07-2010, 02:20 PM

Its a titanium alloy case. None of those words sound cheap.

What is the best place to buy a aftermarket housing in terms of quality? Im looking for a silver one.

**mmj1986** · 06-22-2010, 02:06 AM

Seriously, where do you buy these?

It seems like it is a secret!

**MFDOOM44** · 06-30-2010, 04:32 PM

very clean, i like it.

**zdogefizzle** · 07-03-2010, 04:45 PM

how did you swap the glass covering the camera? does it just pop out? i just did this mod with a white back but i didn't swap the camera cover or the headphone chrome.

Sorry if this was asked/answered earlier, but could you go into a bit of detail about how you actually removed the chrome bezel from the original iphone housing? I have tried to look on iFixit.com and stuff like that, and haven't found anything about how to remove it carefully without snapping/bending it. Its glued down pretty nicely, I don't want to just slide something under it and bend it up and risk snapping it or something!!

When you have all the screws out, use a blowdryer to loosen the glue and then start to "pry" it off.

I used a very very thin knife and just ran it around the joint until it was loose enough to lift off.
