I guess samsung vibrant is compatible with galaxy s?
thanks op. I ordered one for the vibrant, but the picture shown is not a SGS Vibrant.
Ordered 2 sets for my SGS. Had to order for Vibrant because there were no shields for SGS. I guess I have to cut the hole for home button myself.

i9000m Vibrant has front facing camera for video conferencing
but the USA version of Vibrant SGH-T959 does not have video conferencing feature

Website is down. Somebody lock this thread or something since a website like that is rather dodgy (offer free, grab your details, then switch off?).
btw, is it anti-fingerprint or clear SP?

OK you need to full link as above.
Did some more researching. Doesn't seem like a scam.. but obviously at such a cheap price, they don't appear to be great quality either.
Have a read through the Singaporean reviews on the iPhone covers they received by the same deal.

I ordered "free" a full body skin week before last for my Milestone, figured I'd throw it in when I sold it. Came in Friday, the deal is legit, the quality is ok, cost me $2.50 to ship to Canada, worth that much at least.
They're just trying to get their name out there, rise above all the noise Zagg makes.
so weird, they have for Captive size, and Vibrant size, but they don't have i9000 size
Isnt the Vibrant the same size as the i9000 though? It just has an extra button?
Link it not down
It's www.stealguards.com - the s' was missing.
And you missed the 'th' in 'stealth'... lol
Well I ordered one and emailed about i9000 issue. But I do not get any answer. This can be slow customer service or...
I don't want to say more...

you wont be able to press the home button properly with the 4 button setup of the usa vibrant/captive

Ok so I know it has been talked about but I would like to know if anyone has tried to make one. Just did a quick search and those sim covers are quite pricey. ~$20 being the cheapest on eBay. Any ideas? I saw the ONLY case with it built in but that is also pricey ~$30
Thanks

Then you could also throw in against a wall and it would be fine I just want a slim phone now. I've been running the OB Defender on my iPhone 4 and its like a brick. I may be picking up that case with the kickstand built in that has been talked about in the case thread but I think it would be awesome to custom fab a stand in the sim door.

Seriously? Because ONE phone out of hundreds builds in a kickstand it should become the norm? LOL.
Really tho, It's not something I think most people want to add bulk to their case for. Sure there's a market for it, but not enough to justify most making it. There are tons of pocket stands (even some that fold up into a credit card) available on eBay. I don't regularly sit in front of my 4" phone to watch things long enough to warrant having a stand, tho.

Agreed however when you get an "updated" version of a phone that has a kickstand it's kind of a bummer when it's not an option. I can honestly say i've never really had the need for a kickstand but having it available is definitely a nice thing.

Yeah one of the best things added to a cell phone. Found some of my older cells and can hardly see the screen lol my girl has the moto defy (first phone "I" had messed with that has the gorilla glass) and she is hard on phones and hers still looks new..
Yup, it's on their website. It doesn't specifically list the G2x, but it does list the Optimus 2x, which is the same thing.

It used to be listed on the T-Mobile website under the phone's specs. Looks like they removed that part of the description.

In need of a replacement front cover, which includes the capacitive button area and LG area up at the top, along with the brushed metal color bezel. I was able to find this, http://www.parts4repair.com/lg-optimus-2x-full-housing-cover-brown/ but for the O2X, everything looks similar and I know the phones are practically identical, but are they EXACTLY the same?
don't quote me on this but i'm pretty sure the G2x is just a t-mobile branded O2x, so i would assume the hardware is the same

I thought so also, some pretty good prices on that site, but it's china. Who knows if I'm actually getting what's in the picture, everything there is LG and Google branded, I hope the same stuff comes in the mail!
I see tutorials about taking this thing apart, and they're all like 5-7 minutes long, so it shouldn't be that much of a chore.

Looking at eBay, there are US shippers that have bezels and front capacitive covers for like $30-$40 for both the g2x and HD7 that I need.
Now I have to get a Y cable with SD card reader to root my hd7, such a hassle.

What devices? certainly not a nexus. Have you seen a replacement back for the Nexus 4? Nope, and thats been out longer there's too much integrated into the backs of these phones for some third party to come up with a replacement and the manufactures certainly wont make a replacement.

Well that proves my point.. That phone and any phone with a removable back is easy to make a replacement for because its just a piece of plastic. The N4 and N5 and any phone with a non user removable back has more integrated into the backing so making one isnt as easy on top of the fact that its not supposed to be "user removable" so if you think about it, why in the world would a 3rd party manufacture make a different style back for a phone that's back isnt supposed to be removed? The market would be minuscule for obvious reasons and warranty voidance and its harder to make cause the integrated parts..

Can't compare something that has a back that is meant to be removed with one that isn't. Especially with the kind of components, antennas (Wifi, GPS, MIMO, NFC, wireless charging coil, and now even the vibrator), and magnets that's incorporated into the backplate of the Nexus 5, I don't see a good option coming.
Looks like a skin or case, man...are you hell bent for faux leather?
To give some update:
This is what im about to buy:
http://www.etradesupply.com/lg-nexus-5-d820-battery-door-black.html ($30 for a new stock backplate)
I showed it to a local metal engineer, he guessed that he can chrome-plate it for me for ~50$, also removing the battery warning stuff
Next step is to find a cheat repair store that is able to replace the stock part with the new one(+ insert all of the sensors etc onto the new plate).
I WILL get my metal backplate ^_^
