[Q] Question about Fascinate - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a White Fascinate, and I have a question: my silver-plated rim cover is scratched, it reveals a white crust,( tiny, but looking very bad ).
Should I shave all this silver border with my paper knife ? I think after I shaved all this, I have full-white-Fascinate without silver plated border, and looking better
Is there any innovations for this jobs ^_^

X10 original white case

My X10 today felt down and it got some crash in one side of the cover.
I really want to buy a new original case,the same that come with the phone.
Can someone help me to find it?
Thank you
x10 housing...
On cnn.cn website are avaliable (and at a good price) the black cover but for the moment not the white...
you have a better chance of finding a broken white version on ebay and strip the cover.
thank you guys
dear mobilezonerm. I found it there the black one. Do you think is it the original one? like the one comes from factory?
Fakkkkk I dropped mine yesterday while I was drunk. Now I need to get new white housing
you can try to sand the original paint down and spray paint it white
sand with 800 grip to remove original paint ( go down to 400 if it take too long )
sand plastic with 800 and finally 1000
spray paint , 4 layers should be enough
let it dry a full day or 2
wet sand the new paint with 1500 - 2000 to make it very smooth
and you wax it with turtle wax

[Q] Replacing Cracked Screen, question about the adhesive

Hi all, so I'm in the middle of replacing the digitizer for my TB. Got the new digitizer hooked in - there is supposed to be adhesive included, but I'm not sure what form it has taken. I have a clear piece of plaster with 2 printed tabs that say "Please peel off this mask before application" and "Please peel off this mark after application". I also have a white sticker looking thing, when I peel the paper back a see a clear piece of plastic inside. The only adhesive I've seen before goes around the sides - is the thunderbolt a clear platic adhesive that covers the whole surface? I'm assuming maybe one of these is a free screen protector they might have included? Pic of both attached
Edit: white sticker-looking one is a bit thinner than the width of the screen, am I supposed to cut this into strips to go around the outside?
Now that I go back and look - the listing I bought from didn't actually mention any adhesive, so I'm not 100% either of these necessarily are the adhesive.

It looks identical to the screen protectors from verizon, peel #1 off, apply to screen, peel #2 off, squeeze air bubbles out

use an exacto knife and cut thin strips odd the white adhesive. Be careful not to cover sensors or have it too wife so that you can see it on the screen. Make sure you put enough along the bottom or you'll have the soft key lights bleed on the screen something fierce. Good luck!
Swyped Thunder coming at you
um.... Not sure what these other guys are talking about, but the guy I know that does these uses a 2mm tape made specifically for this task produced by 3M. If someone sent you a sheet of crap you gotta cut up to make work, you got hosed in my opinion. I believe in doing a job right, and THAT doesn't strike me as how they do it at HTC. I believe Amazon has the correct 3M tape for this job.

Can you give me a link. It is greatly appreciated.
Here ya go.
They also have 3mm and 1mm, but 2mm is recommended. Just put it on the outer edge of the digitizer, don't let it overlap the black bezel. I highly recommend layering 2 strips on each side or you will not have enough space between the glass and LCD and eventually they will touch which will make it look like there is water inside it.

I had the same problem the dye from the leather cover stained the white plastic on my tab,
The only thing that worked was a polishing compound made for getting scratches out of perspex windscreens not cheap from motorcycle shops, you could try rubbing the stain with toothpaste which is after all a fine polishing compound, try a small area first.

Xperia S White anti stain coating

Received my XPS white last week. Love it so far - the overall useability, design, camera, and its screen.
But there is one thing that fall short, in my view sub par, and that is the choice of material used for the phone body. It is plasticky especially the back cover, and easily stained (for the white one).
The reason I post this is to share with you that the anti stain coating of the XPS white is far from perfect.
My 3-day old XPS white had been stained/ dyed to light blue due to a handphone pouch I used; the same pouch I used for my past 3 phones. I learnt from the web that the anti stain coating allow you to remove the stain by rubbing the surface using your finger or eraser. As my situation was really bad, I used an eraser and rubbed it for a full hour. The stain eventually rubbed off, but so do the whole top coating... now instead of matte white, my phone now look flat and a little shiny, like those plastic material you find in kid's toy.
Conclusion:
1) dont rely on the anti stain coating, while it does work somewhat, it will wear off.
2) be careful with the case, or pouch (or maybe even your jeans!) you use for your phone, they might stain your XPS white.

Has anyone used Decal Skins on their device before?

Hi guys,
I have been interested in a white decal skin for my nexus 4. I wanted to then match with a white silicon case, so that nearly every part of my phone is covered in white, because I really wish I could get the white version, but there was none. And the original white version needs a white decal skin on the front as well...but...
my question is..does it feel annoying to use? Like how much does the sticker stick out? Can you feel it sticking out when you glide your finger?
Another question, Do dusts get in between the sticker and the screen? So that it looks messy after some time?
Thanks a lot for your help!
