This with reference with other threads talking about changing colours:

such as minotauri's thread so check his thread out too.

Purpose of this thread

Just wanted to share my pics (at Bottom) and helpful tips for any first time doers to customizing...or have a place where you can ask questions some noobs might think are stupid but it's cool that what this is for :D

Obviously i'm not responsable for anything that YOU do TO YOUR phone ...just a disclaimer just incase...obviously this is not rocket science but better safe ...and OBviously Not responsible for the Sellers on ebay...and what they do. Your actions are your own...thanks now that's clear ...we move on.

Ok so i had a black t989d samsung galaxy S II from telus

I bought a white vinyl decal and a white battery door of ebay.

Ebay links of the ones i bought (links may expire over time)

White Door : http://www.ebay.ca/itm/OEM-BATTERY-...785829?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item35b9c24ee5

White vinyl decal (basically like a sticker but it will not leave marks or glue on you screen so it's safe)

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/White-Vinyl-...495791?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item19cd79d3ef

Tips :to applying the vinly on the front

i would recommend buying 2 vinyls just to be safe or mess up sticking it properly...the stickness is best the first time/ second time

Clean your phone first -microfibre clothes are best...like those tiny cloth sheets that comes with sunglasses

I say second time only if you didn't press down firmly on it to make it stick if you just gentle drop on using mainly the weight of the sticker itself it cool to remove it and re-adjust 2 maybe 3 times

Obviously remove the holes for the camera and hearing speaker

Use the bezel, the silver frame that goes around the sides of your phone to guide yourself to being straight

APPLYING:

The way i apply it is holding the top Thick / fat part (front facing camera ) on edges (so it doesn't stick to my fingers) with first finger and thumb rougly around the centre same thing with the bottom part with the 4 android buttons (both hands being above the sticky part not below)

then use my middle fingers to push the lines along the frame to make them come straight....more importantly trying to line up the bottom so the lights light up the drawings on the stick for the 4 button it won't come perfect which is ok but the light should be really close to it if you line up the bottom with the silver frame

Note for the camera part there's an outline sticker that goes around the camera piece as well ...for that remove the battery door is makes it easier

What my black phone looks like after:

Front and back image - Pic 1 and 2

Battery door / camera piece can be seen- Pic 3

LED light 4 buttons - Pic 4

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xxKamikazexx:
Can you put this on to of a screen protector or does it come with its own?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kosh2thamax:
Umm sure but the screen protector should ideally, either cover the entire front including the top, like around the front camera etc...or be the same size or smaller then the rectangle that fits inside the frame of the white vinyl ...only because it will have a weird little raised outline underneath of the protector...if you don't mind that then yeah should be fine...hopefully that makes sense what i said and it's not confusing LOL (PS unfortuantely it doesn't come a protector for the screen)

an alternative...just an opinion ... would be you could get another screen protector (i know a lil more costly) then remove the old one...place the white vinyl on the phone take the new protector (without pealing the back thingy that protectors the stickness) place on top of the phone trace with a marker (on the side that peals away of course)cut the outline with an exacto (X-acto) knife *after tracing, take it of the phone to use the exacto lol just saying to be safe...never know people may try exacto on top of their phone LOL *

Hope that helps...feel free to ask any other questions :D

How did you align you buttons so well, i cant seem to get them to overlap right.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] kosh2thamax:
yeahh that is a bit tricky but if you look closely i'm not exactly on the light i'm slightly off ...it's nearly impossible to get it dead on 100% but if the light falls under to light up the printed button it should be good enough....i actually mainly focused on the framing the whole as straight as possible using the bezel (silver frame of the phone) as the guide...the button should line up roughly 95% if you get it straight frame on frame... if it helps my top corners both left and right have a lil black space showing (around the curves) you can't even see it really....it cuz i focused on making sure my front camera and senors were not covered and then lined everything up downwards.....hopefully this makes some sense...LOL

[General Questions and Answers] jerm1027:
The Question: Should I replace my Hero, or stick it out until my upgrade in January?

So, here's the story: I'm on Sprint and was previously using the Samsung Epic 4G (SPH-D700), rooted, running RandomROM Thunderhawk. Loved it, minus a very minor bug where the launcher would crash occasionally. My original had good battery life (10-12 hours typically), but my used replacement (original stolen) had noticeably worse, but barely acceptable battery life (~10%/hr with music, 8-10 hours typically under normal usage). My used replacement finally died, so I'm back on my old HTC Hero. The reasons why I liked the Hero was because of the battery life, durability, and Cyanogenmod. Other than that, nothing much to like about this aging phone. Performance is poor, even overclocked to 748MHz, too small for texting, and screen is battery hog. However, I discovered battery drains rather quickly while music playing, also about 10%/hr. Quite puzzling considering I've gotten 2 straight days of battery life with some light usage. I'm pretty sure it's because of the lack of NEON instruction set. And now my phone is starting to separate in half vertically, so it's not as durable. So now, there is nothing to like about my phone. I'm also not due for an upgrade until January 2013, money is tight, and no 4G LTE in my area. So, the newest phones are out of the question. With my run of bad luck with the Epic 4G I'm reluctant to buy another.

What I'm looking for:

Developer support (rootability/Custom Android ROMs)

4G (WiMAX preferred, no LTE in bay area. Sprint rep said until Jan 2013, but they've been wrong before)

Price (under $200 preferred, ok with used/refurb)

What I do:

Infrequent texting (usually a few/day, with occasional text-binges)

Occasional calls

MUSIC - and lots of it. Long commutes.

GPS Navigation

Movies/video.

Tethering (4G is a must)

Phones I'm considering and thoughts:

HTC Evo Design 4G (AKA Hero S)

- I like the size, the price, and the hardware is acceptable, though slightly dated. My biggest issue is the non-existent developer support, especially considering I hate HTC Sense. Also heard about poor battery life.

HTC Evo 4G

- It's a bit big, and I'm concerned about picture quality. This was the deciding factor when upgrading to the Epic 4G. Also not sure about the old Snapdragon SoC. Is it still adequate for a power user?

Samsung Epic 4G Touch (GS II, SPH-D710)

- I don't like the size. Big for my hands, small for tablet-like use. It's also too expensive, even used, but not totally out of reach. I really like the display, excited about the current exynos SoC (blazing fast, even with stock, bloated software), and there is a lot of developer support.

Samsung Epic 4G (GS I, SPH-D700)

- reluctant because of bad luck and feel the need to try another phone. Good size, good performance (could be better), and a lot of developer support. Wasn't a fan of battery, and concerned about aging SoC and limited RAM (384MB usable).

Recommendations? Experiences with these phones? Should I replace or stick it out with old Hero?

Thanks

Once you go with a large screen device , you wont look back. so I wont say size is a limiting option. Jan 2013?! How long is your contract? When did you buy it?
[General Questions and Answers] jerm1027:
Too good to be true. I can barely find a 1st gen Evo for $140. I'm guessing bad ESNs. Never heard of CowBoom... :confused:

I got screwed from the defunct Sprint Premier program. My yearly upgrade would have been March of this year. Now that I think about it, I did re-new a 2 year contract back in March 2011, which is when I got my original Epic 4G, so Jan 2013 isn't too bad. Still, as a tech geek, I need new tech a lot more frequently than bi-yearly. I'm definitely leaning towards the Epic 4G Touch GSII. If I can find it for about $200-$250, I'll probably snag it. But I can't seem to find one much cheaper than $300 used. :(
[General Questions and Answers] jzdanis:
i have the htc evo 4g. i really like it. i replaced my hero with it.
[General Questions and Answers] jerm1027:
I kinda abandoned this thread without any updates. Anywho, if anyone wants to know, I snagged an Evo 4G for about $130 a while back. I'm screwed out of ICS/JB because of the old snapdragon SoC, but that hasn't really stopped me from running unofficial CM9 nightlies. :D

This coming January, I have my eyes set for the Galaxy Note II.

Edit... someone posted a fix for the volume buttons in page 6 of the eclipse forum. eclipserom.com/vforum/showthread.php?1612-ROM-Eclipse-Bionic-Build-01-4-26-12 i'm sure nitro will update the ROM soon with the fix.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rakeesh_j:
I have a few questions specific to the Sprint version of the galaxy nexus:

1. Updates - who provides them? Does google have to go through sprint? Or can you download them direct from google like you can with GSM/Verizon? If google direct, does google provide up to date versions? They don't for verizon (who is still on 4.0.2)

2. If google doesn't provide them direct, what are the chances that the modding community can provide a pure google experience with a fully up to date copy of android? I mean no modifications at all beyond what you would otherwise find in the pure google release.

3. Do third party ROM's and google direct ROM's have access to the ## codes? E.g. ##DATA, etc.

4. Does the stock nexus include bloatware (e.g. crappy NASCAR alikes, amazon mp3, sprintzone, etc)

5. The Verizon CDMA has connection issues, can the same be said about Sprint?

6. I've heard about some problems with some screens looking like crap, has this been the case with the sprint version?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rakeesh_j:
bump
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nikiya:
1. I believe Google supplies updates to all of the nexus phones.

2. Even with direct updates from Google the modding community will just about always provide better update support for any android phone. Not too mention the tweaks and mods that truly push the power of the phone.

3. No bloatware at all on the Sprint galaxy nexus.

4. I have had no connection issues.

5. This screen is beautiful, but some people seem to notice things in pentile screens while others do not.

I started using smartphones with a blackberry curve, then a Samsung moment, then an HTC Evo 4g, then the HTC Evo 3d and now my SAMSUNG galaxy nexus (I still prefer the nexus prime name as it would have gone well with my transformer prime). This is by far the best phone out of the bunch.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Google makes the updates for the software, then hands it to (and continues to work with) Sprint to develop the kernel and radio stacks to work with the update. The update gets tied up in that process, exactly how it does with Verizon. Updates will be slower because of it.

People will take the update files from GSM and take the changes and add them to new CDMA ROMs, but they will still be using the old radios from the previous updates (because those aren't included in the GSM ROMs of course). So basically it's a hack job that just makes you feel better because you have the updated build number, but isn't really an update. Often the updates for GSM don't do anything to fix the CDMA model, and its purely cosmetic. Fixes that the CDMA version need will only come in the CDMA update.

Short codes are just pinging your carrier and returning the data. Shouldn't be ROM specific.

Shouldn't have any Sprint apps (Verizon includes 2 tools). Any that are included can be disabled.

Dunno. Different networks and software versions (slightly). The radios are probably of the same quality though.

Sprint version has the same screen tech/process/manufacturer as the other models. It'll be subject to the same inconsistencies and "issues" that people see. Its the same production line.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Rakeesh_j:
Well I'd assume they'd still have the android core fixes at least? Take for example the API additions and calendar app changes from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3.

I think that's true on GSM but CDMA is different. For example, if you load CM9 to an HTC Evo or an HTC Hero, you lose access to those codes.

Don't suppose anybody could test this for me? E.g. load AOKP or CM9 to their galaxy nexus and try them.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
They'd include anything that was part of the GSM OTA that wasn't radio or CDMA specific. So you'd get feature adds, but not bugfixes. Most people are looking for bug fixes, which they don't get. As I said, for the most part these CDMA ROMs that include parts of the GSM OTAs can be pretty useless and are usually just cosmetic.

No idea, don't like or use CDMA.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Shinigami9376:
