Back cover with no Samsung logo - Galaxy S 5 Accessories

This is kind of strange request. Does anynone now where you can buy backcover (not oroginal Samsung) that would have the water resistance capability? Preferably with no Samsung logos.

Check eBay. Most knock-offs come with the gasket now.

I did, but most of them are not water resistant. I will keep looking.

I removed the logo with a VERY small amount of fingernail polish remover. Dab it very lightly and let dry between wipes. Did not damage the finish of the back.

Confirm with the seller that they do not have the logo. Some sellers cover it to avoid complaints. Ali Express is legitimate. It's as reliable as eBay if you do your research on the seller's feedback.

Finally glass back protector

http://theglass-m.com/
Ordered from here and received yesterday. Shipping was very fast and has a cut out for proximity sensor and back camera. Apparently its gorilla glass and fits great. Has a nice anti finger print coating. I have been searching for a glass back protector and finally found one. I can post pics if people want but the price is great and fit is also good.
Is it just me or that website look dodgy to say the least...

You could put it over the asf, I did it with another brand glass protector. Just makes sure it clean and dust free. These one came with a big sticker to remove any dust.
Can you please put a Picture of the Phone in a way we can see how much the glass is in thickness compared to the Phone looking Just at the sides?
How abt scratches and fingerprints ?

I have had rhino shield on my nexus 4 and nexus 7 also for my xperia z. The first generation where not very good. They scratched easily and also got dented easily. On my nexus they didn't cover much of the screen and on my xperia the one they sent had issue with the back protector. I have ordered the second generation since they were giving the people who backed them on kick starter free second gen ones. I have not received them yet so cannot comment on them as of now.
These have been very good so far they are apparently made of gorilla glass so they are scratch resistant and have anti finger print coating. The best I have used so far. These are 9H and rihino shields are I beleive 5H.

Thank you, they seem quite thin from the pictures. While we can notice it's there, it's actualy quite OK in therms of thickness.
It's a case that the pros outweight the cons by a large margin.
Ordered now.
Let see how it perform compared to my old SGP one.

Do you have the sony dock or the knock one. I had to take out the spring loaded tabs to get mine to work properly it would charge but a slight knock on my night stand would sometimes stop it from charging.

Disassembling Huawei Mate 7

Here's a link and here like the Mate is broken.
thanks for the link !
but it is too slow... is there a way to get it on youtube ?
Unfortunately, it can not be completely record. On the PC, it can, however, look reasonable.
I have just made a little damage (i'm angry against myself).
You can see the damaged part on the picture (the display is completely OK, because there is a tempered glass for protection on it, and all the rest is OK)
Do you think i can order the golden metal part that "circle" the display ?
Spare parts I have not found. However, it must be removed in any case the display. Whether it survives that !?Because I would rather put on a cover.
There is a cover (i removed it for the picture)...
The phone falls from my pocket on the ground... a fall about 1m40...
when the phone touched the ground, the back cover protector moved and one of the corner was damaged just there... it's 3x nothing, but i'm pissed... (i'm a bit maniac )
If only watch better. But is very smooth without cover.

I just shattered the screen on mine, has anyone taken on apart yet?
Rear cover removal looks easy enough for basic access & a battery refresh but screen work looks less easy & would be hard for average person do a faultless or worthwhile repair job.
Does anyone no how to remove the rear casing (battery door)? I have scratched mine and noticed you can buy the part pretty cheap but noing how this comes if would be much appreciated.

Camera glass cover question

I replaced camera glass (not lens) because it was cracked. Looks like new one is plastic, it can be easily scratces and if I remember correctly original one is glass not plastic. Is every replacement is plastic or I bought bad one, this is important because I can't afford them easily. You guys pay 5 but I have to pay 20 or more.

Thank you for answering. :good:
However how can I be sure if it's original or not?
1 $ = 3.67 ₺ that makes 5$ product costs me 18.38₺ which is high for me to buy another to try many times.
Can you recommend another site? (they shutdown paypal in my country so i can not shop from ebay)

Do a thing take your phone to a watch repair shop who puts glass in wrist watches, and ask them to cut the glass of the phone camera size and apply it on your phone. Got mine fixed from a local watch repair shop at 1.5$ and the camera is working just fine as it used to do.
Give a thumbs up if you feel it helped

I bought a plastic one and you are correct scratches easily, i found one on amazon which is glass https://www.amazon.com/Mudder/b/ref...8123742011&field-lbr_brands_browse-bin=Mudder
hope this helps ..its a little more difficult to install so watch the video on youtube first to get correct order of pieces
Hi guys. I just have a quick question. I bought my note 4 2nd hand and upon checking i noticed there's a small crack on the glass cover of the rear camera. When i tried using the camera, it could not focus at all. It keeps blurring. So i replaced the glass cover, and when i tried using the camera again, same issue is still present.
Should i just change the entire camera assembly?
TALIA guys. ??

Anyone replace U11 rear glass cover?

Has anyone done a replacement on their own? I'm hoping someone's done it and can say simple or watch out for X. I've got a heat gun, all kinds of tools, and have watched the teardowns.
I dropped it a month ago and just the corner was cracked, now most of the back is a spider web.
HTC branded ones are $80 on eBay and aren't the kind of thing you want to go cheap on. Thanks for any feedback.
I too need to know. Didn't even play with it for 6 hours and it tumbled and completely shattered. From the vids, it doesn't look too difficult but ya, if there is anything to look out for let us know. Thanks!
In the teardown videos you can usually see what you have to look for, like if there's something attached to it (NFC antenna for example).
Watch a few different ones and you should be good.
The only advice i can give from fixing a lot of phones is, to not rely on the adhesive which usually comes already placed on the part.
Buy some special liquid glue for it! It will save you a lot of headaches, keep it dust free and preserve the waterproof feature.
With the delievered adhesive you will soon have dust in your camera, and if you don't clean every bit of the old adhesive before
replacing it, sooner or later it will get loose.

Will do. I have a pile of parts for phone repair and glue tape. If a liquid glue is really better for the water sealing, is there a specific phrase to punch into Amazon to get the stuff you use?
Oddly enough, the part was $80 on eBay and they all disappeared. There's only $40 'used' but cosmetically perfect ones. I got the cheaper one and will be happy.
Thanks for the feedback. It should arrive this coming week. I'll post results.

There's no amazon where i live
Quick google search should give you some options
Used ones do not come with the double tape adhesive on the back and I'm not sure you can find that anywhere to buy. If you use some kind of liquid glue, which I did on an S7, because the phone is sealed, all the vapors will affect the internal components and you need to reopen the phone in order to clean them ( mine had a problem with the light on the menu button ) which will result in breaking the glass back.
You have two options:
1. buy some glue that is made specifically for this
2. buy some double sided tape ( best option ).
Good luck !
It actually came with the factory tape on and an extra set of 3m tape. It was exactly the same as the stuff used by the factory. The only area not covered was a section of the lower right of the phone. I cut up some of the extra and stuck it down. Heat it all up and its new again.
Zero complaints, easy. Thanks for the pointers!

I got it from eBay. KK Parts was the vendor. I got a screen a few weeks later from them because they sent what they described. They were honest with a small scratch on the screen I got a few weeks later. When I looked at eBay vendors (all China), a lot had taken pictures from another post. KK was one of 2 or 3 who showed pictures of what you were buying.
Plus... the rear glass had the factory waterproof tape mounted on the back and they gave extra strips. I'd buy from them again
Hi Jimbob,
Do you have a link to the ebay page? I am having trouble finding that vendor.
Thanks for your help.

HTC U11 Life back cover repair
I've seen some repair video online and it seems not difficult. I had a HTC U11 and crack on back cover accidentally, bought a new cover from witrigs and replace it myself, it's quite easy than I thought, just follow the tutorial and heat up for enough time.

temprered glass with selfie camera hole

Is there any temprered glass with a hole to selfie camera?
I have tried some good temprered glass but without a hole and in night selfies photos has an hallo on the edges from the camera circle light!
Hello
I am sure you will find something like that. I had a similar one, unfortunately I do not remember the name of the manufacturer. I was also very pleased
I found this. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B087LSGM5P/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_u6B6EbPQC2K3M
Not sure how good it is but it has a hole it seems.

This is true. Direct from Whitestone it was like $30. (Regularly more, supposedly). They shipped fast and it came intact and not broken, so there's that.
Trust everyone that says to get a whitestone dome. Best quality, and application available. Period.
Don't worry about the price, because it includes lifetime warranty. Screen breaks, you send a picture as proof, and they send you a new one for $10. For life.
The problem with the hole is cleaning. You'll find it hard and you'll be much more likely to scratch the display... and camera shooting surface.
If you cover it you will degrade the image to some extent but probably quit small.
Most high quality plastic protectors like Gorilla IQ Sheild also have a hole (although I would prefer they not!). However their thickness is less than their glass counterparts so it's easier to clean. The wet apply ones are much easier to apply and remove than glass ones. The IQ Sheild typically has a half year lifespan and costs a few dollars.
Even after close to a year was still almost clear when removed.
So there's that...

Yeah I purchased directly from drop shipping offshore Whitestone.
They were a complete fubar.
Sent me an open box special at full price for my 10+; right box, tray but the glass was for a fking Apple model.
No phone support, slow response and made me ship the unless one back even after photos. No doubt to be repackaged yet again.
They took at least 2 weeks to provide a refund and not even a texted sorry for the inconvenience. Completely unacceptable slovenly support and inept, chintzy product management.
