New back cover - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

New not Bew
Any one know where I can p/u a extra stock back cover?
I want to see if I can sand the back so its textured and repaint. I only keep my phones for a few months and sell it so I will need the original cover w/o any mods.

Call att and ask for a new one. They usually send new battery covers for any phone for free.

Fixed your title for you

I would like to find a replacement as well. My SR first lesson in gravity resulted (thankfully) in a noticeably scratched battery cover.. Naturally before my aftermarket case protection has arrived from China.
If you have found them or have a contact within AT&T or sammy you can recommend that I call please reply with linkage.
Thanks

Well they used to do it and I'm assuming they still do. I cant find a link though. My friend would always call att and get new covers for his atrix and they sent them. He got like 5 free.
You could say there is a defect and I'm sure they would sent it but I don't think you need to.

I've been searching around myself. would love to see some custom battery covers.

You can find them now on ebay.

Google recently returned a new website that sells the back cover piece for 14 dollars plus 6 dollars shipping. For what it's worth od rTher take the ebay deal and get the extra battery for the same cost as what everyone else is charging.
I bet he is just a matter of time before those covers are only 5 dollars shipped

Gets to hot? Lol you should've tried the Atrix. Most horrible phone with heat ever!!

I called again today and they still say they have nothing available and nothing planned for a battery cover or battery. Hmm... Any evidence of the above? It's been 3 weeks since you posted the above and still nothing.

any news on back cover?

Original BACK DOOR available.

find on ebay
Not to be a hater but there is a section just for selling phones & phone related items. I know this will sell quick because i have heard others asking where they can get a backing and i once needed one as well but just trying to give you a heads up cuz more then likely u will get told numberous times that selling is not for this section.

My wife dropped hers jogging. Went to my local store and they opened new G2x and gave me the cover and battery. It pays to have a nice working relationship with a local store.

I just called LG and ordered one. They state that the system had a glitch yesterday and that the price of $10.35 was incorrect. The real price is $21.

[Q] BestBuy employee screwed up screen protector installation

I bought an Invisibleshield screen protector at BestBuy and had an employee in the cell phone area install it for me. He sprayed the phone directly with the solution and now it appears that the solution has seeped in through the sides. It doesn't affect the screen but it's noticeable under the proximity sensor and earpiece. It's been 4 days since installation and it's still not gone and it's bothering the hell out of me. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it aside from taking the phone apart?

I would take it back in there and complain about it and tell them you want a new one.
Can I do that? I didn't buy the phone from BestBuy, I bought it new from eBay.

Yes you can. If they damage something during installation they must replace it. Raise hell with a manager if you have to. The phone is not in the same condition you brought it in as.

ive emailed them and they say it comes with front housing. good luck!!
Thank you guys so much for posting these helpful links, I've been looking all over trying to find a decent price for front white digitizer. People on ebay are selling it for 100 bucks and up. I don't think it should cost that much if the black ones are about 40-50.
Why is it so expensive. You can replace the iphone 4/4s digitizer with screen for $24-$30 (-_-)

Update : almost a month later and no housing. I emailed the company and they are now refunding me because there are out of stock. Guess if I didn't email them they would of kept my money.
I got my digitizer for about 50, but that was a long time ago.

I was just about to post this and a few questions. Glad I looked around before opening a new thread. I did send them an email about the bezel/casing, if it is included. If any one could translate and let me know.
Update: very impressed with immediate response. Did an excellent job In Answering my question even with the language barrier. And yes item is digitizer and housing. I believe total after tax and delivery was around 62 to 65 $ (converted from euro)

I was really close to buying one but the $8 shipping killed it for me. For $30 there has to be a better solution. Also didn't help their sale was the fact that I already have a great case (ballistic) and have a 2A (max) usb car adapter.

well $27.94 to be exact =) i'll admit it did take it from an awesome deal to a really realy great deal. i had looked at these in the tmobile store and they were asking 59.99 i believe. At first i decided against the extra bulk and weight of it. The blaze is a small and light phone, and this case pretty much makes it not a "small and light phone" lol. 8mm thickness doesnt sound like much, but in reality it doubles the phone thickness and weight.
peronally, with the gorilla glass on the phones these days and the phone insurance from tmobile, i usually dont bother with cases, escpecially when they tend not to even include a belt clip or kickstand, but with the power outages from hurricane sandy recently, i had a change of opinion. for 27 dollars, even if i dont use it on my phone regularly, its akin to any other emergency supply one might want to have available in their household in case of emergencies.
just my somewhat hands-on review and my associated humble opinion of the product.
I just got one of these for my blaze, now i can go a full day without charging it! i did notice though that it gets kind of hot when charging the phone off of the powerskin.
Just ordered mine on Ebay. Does anyone know if you have to charge the stock battery separately, or you just plug it in and it charges both?
Thanks.

This phone doesn't have gorilla glass and is prone to scratching. A few posters here have been unfortunate to have put scratches on their phones.
Investing in a good case and screen protector is something I would recommend. If you have this case all you would need is a good screen protector.

It was good during the hurricane as a backup. For $20 quality is OK. If I paid more I would have returned it. Its a rubber case that fits over the top and shifts around. I thought it would have been a hard case or shell
