Now, who is brave enough to open our phone and replace that horrible vzw logo??
Just looking at the pictures, it doesn't seem to match and it never says it's an oem part. Also, you might void your warranty by doing this. Depends on how they can tell that you've opened the phone up, if they can.
You can buy stickers to put over the ugly button we have now!

Of course it will void warranty and there's always a covered up screw that samsung/vzw can see if the phone has been tempered with. And yes, I believe these are NOT OEM.

There is a youtube video of someone taking it apart. It will be a PITA and does not seem worth it. Also, by taking it apart, chances are when you put it back together, some areas will be sticking up or out due to the glue and tape not being the same.
Here's a sample: after you take out the back, antenna, and other things to get to the screen, you must use a heat gun to loosen up the glue, then pry the glass from the digitizer just to get to the home button. Good luck getting it back together and looking how it did when you bought it.

im using the black aluminium button on my white note2 and i like it
It doesn't bother me at all, but since so many people seem bothered by it I decided to see if I could get rid of it. I tried acetone on a qtip and an exacto. Didn't even budge. Ended up leaving a small scratch with what appears to be exposed aluminum. I'm guessing it is an enamel baked on to aluminum, and the White is not on top of black. I have the titanium version.

I really don't mind it. If it's not at the top, it doesn't really affect me. As long as they don't brand it by ghosting it on the stream, no issues with me.
The Verizon Wireless at the bottom of the pull down notification menu is much much worse

I haven't messed with phones, but usually covered screws can be taken out without them knowing if you remove and reset the cover properly. Sometimes devices have something that rips when you open it, and then it's much much harder to open without them knowing.

im planning to get a new tmobile vibrant but i wonder is there anyway to remove the tmobile logo on the front of the phone? is it underneath the glass or on top has anyone tried this before?
You can't, don't mess up like I did, Just let it be.

Why would you want to do that anyway? It aint looking cheap or anything on the contrary actually and anyway, the last thing you wanna do is messing your phone up with THIS.
Sharpie? Lol
Are you embarassed to have a tmpbile phone? You could use electrical tape
If you want not to look at it and not ruin your phone buy a roll of pin-striping tape from a auto paint supply, it is cheap and you can most colors. It come in 1/16" - 1/2" common. ou can use that tape to block out the logo, and it will noy come off easily.
You could always buy a new screen protector and black out the top portion (by applying it to the backside of the screen protector) with something like black nailpolish or hobby paint or something.
This would give it a finished look and be removable in case you miss it.

actually, i'm sorry i said that.
I'mma remove it too some-how since ATT owns tmobile lol.
xrider your a G lol, and haha yeah we need to replace it with At&t now...
Here is my sad story.....dropped the T-bolt for the first time and the digitizer cracked (had it in a case even). So I ordered a new one from repairs universe and they advertised that it would come with a guide. It did not, but the digitizer arrived quickly. So being an electrical engineer I decided that I could probably do it anyway.
I managed to get it apart and learn the hard way about a few things not to do. I manged to crack the LCD :-( I looked an no one has them :-(
My model used a Sharp lq043y1dx04 according to the sticker.
Anyway, I have figured out how to take the T-Bolt apart and figured that while I wait for a new LCD to become available I could at least share some pictures with the community. Being a new poster though, how would you suggest posting pictures?
***Update - photos are here, let me know if there are any that you would like to see better: s1098.photobucket.com/albums/g378/bscythe/ ***
Finally, I do not recommend anyone try this....you need to remove the LCD in order to replace the digitizer. The LCD is double sticky taped to a metal tray. To get the two apart you must do a lot of prying which can destroy the fragile LCD. If you are going to try it, I'd recommend a 4" wide razor used for scraping windows to insert along side the LCD to use to pry with. Be careful not to cut the ribbons though!
I'm a mechanical/acoustical engineer...
For pics, I would use photobucket...
As for the screen and tray, usually they are one piece, is there any kind of tabs through the board that look like they may hold the tray in?

Thanks for posting, OP.
Well I hope that my misfortune is at least helpful to others at some point since I could not find a teardown to reference before I tried fixing the phone myself.
I was able to get a new one from work (thank goodness for the large number of available upgrades on our account), but still plan to finish fixing this one when the LCDs become available. Putting it back together will be the easy part....I'll take better pictures during the process too.
Did you happen to notice where the cell and wifi antennas are located?
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
They are located in the battery cover. If you take it apart you will see the metal tabs on the battery cover that connect to the phone for the antennas.
This is the first phone I have ever purchased insurance for. My nexus one took a few tumbles and survived but I would hate to try to replace this phone at retail price. At least ebay had nexus one pretty available for reasonable prices.
Good luck maybe you can still purchase the insurance through VZ.

Well I dropped mine too and the digitizer is cracked bad. It still works and tape is holding it all in place but I need to get it fixed. I have taken apart laptops and fixed them and am a mr fixit in many departments, so I hope I can do it without cracking the lcd. I ordered the digitizer and am hoping to get some tips from you. Is there any way you put a step by step together that could guide me through this process? I would greatly greatly appreciate it.
I looked at the pics and with the beveled edges of the tray it seems to be very hard to separate the lcd from the tray with a flat blade. Does the LCD have to be detached from the tray? Also, since the bottom part of the case is a molded piece do the internals slide up and out?
Thanks
I'm sure that isn't the only antenna.

It's not the kevlar back but the plastic covering on the top (camera/flash/speaker) which can be taken off, possibly revealing some screws. Other than that there seems to be no way to open the device.

Why not take ANY phone and try to jam an ice pick between the edge of the glass and the phone. Hit it with a hammer.... does anything happen?
Or drop any phone from a really tall building, cause I'd hate to spend $600 on a phone and not have it survive something like.
Maybe put any phone in a blender, cause I'd hate to spend $600 on a phone and not have it blend properly.

Nope, it isn't.
If I get a device and the plastic that covers the screws gets detached easily it's a build flaw. If the Kevlar thing gets detached it's a design flaw. If you drop your phone from a tall building or hit it with an hammer it's a flaw of your brain.
It's different.
I wouldn't pick at my RAZR like that anyways.

I agree. The guy in the vid didn't use force. Come to think of it the OP didn't really meant to use force and try to open the back cover.
The cover we know is kevlar and durable. The material witch glues it on the phone how durable is it?
Tbh im in love with the back cover of the phone. I'd never put a cover/case on it. I wouldn't want to put one out of need( safe sex suxx )
Obviously, DrUnKenSTeiN is probably the only intelligent human on this post.
Where did anyone here read that I want you to remove the cover or bash it with a hammer ?
All I asked was to see if that thing is flimsy and all I got was raw violence by some members who probably have Attention deficit disorder (syntrix, ianford)
When I asked once if a certain laptop was flimsy, one intelligent human pressed on the lid lightly, checked for keyboard flex, and gave me his opinion.
You may say it's not important for daily use, but so does Android OS or a large screen. A smartphone can be productive without them, but this is not what discussion boards are about.
You may be excused to feel embarrassed, thanks.

If your phone is sealed then its not something that all razrs got. Seems like a flaw in the specific device.

I messed around with 4 RAZR's today at three different stores. I even took out a penny that was scarred and I was not able to even scuff the Kevlar. It's on there on all the edges and sides REALLY REALLY good. And, that Kevlar is REALLY durable.
The one in the VIDEO MUST BE DEFECT.
So I replaced the glass part of my rezound yesterday, pretty much successfully.
But now that I have it all together again it is very easy to push the glass to the lcd and make it display those weird colors around the screen. You know what i mean if you have ever pushed too hard on your touch screen, or lcd.
I have been doing some research and I think I was supposed to put something between the glass and the lcd, not sure what though or were to get it...
If someone could let me know weather or not I was supposed to put something between the lcd and glass, and then were i could get it, I would be very appreciative.
Did you replace the old sticky tape that adheres the glass to the lcd panel?

As some of you unfortunately may have found out, the back glass on our phones break quite easily.
Do you think we could get a petition or something going on "Change" website to get this problem addressed.
I have read some stories of the phone breaking not because of a drop, but because of temperature fluctuations.
To me, this seems like a manufacturing defect, similar to a recall on an automobile.
Any thoughts are appreciated to maybe get something going to correct this.

Have you e-mailed LG support and let them know of these issues. I'm sure they know already but you can't just jump the gun without first contacting them directly. Give them the chance to fix it first. If they say that the temperature issues are normal then yes you can start a petition.
Is the back of this device easy to replace? If it is, it would be nice to be able to buy different backs, like made of polycarbonate or metal. That would be amazing. :fingers-crossed:
Though they would have to be made by a 3rd party, and I doubt any company would actually do it.
I believe that when you buy something with glass vs plastic or metal you should know and accept that glass breaks with pressure and don't hold others responsible for our choices.
That's why i use plastic cups at home lol

I've seen some replacement backs on ebay, i don't think the back of the phone itself would be too difficult to replace based on the tear downs i've seen at least. Guess ya never know till ya try. lol
I bought a spare back and bezel on ebay back when they were cheap and in stock, just in case. I work above the Arctic Circle and was worried what going from 70°F to -60°F and back when I go outside and come back in would do to the glass back, but I didn't have any issues this winter. YMMV.

How cheap was it? The back, that is. I'm contemplating replacing it just because of the little crack, but I'm not sure if it's worth the 55.

No the phone is completely fine, that's why I'm questioning buying a new back. It's just a cosmetic crack. Using a case now and I still think about it, haha.
I understand that. But temperature has nothing to do with pressure..
No I have not yet contacted them. I will do that and see what they say.
Just wanted to see what everyone's opinion was on this issue.
I saw one back on eBay for $55... Another seller shows them for $365 right now and before it was only $35, so I emailed him and they said its not in stock, that is why they raised the price. Said they will bring the price back down when they get more in stock..
Otterbox doesn't offer a case for this phone. I got a case from eBay for $10, its got a plastic shell surrounded in a rubber type wrap. It does ok, hides the crack some.. but my crack runs across the rear camera.

I see your point, but I don't agree with your premise. It's not unreasonable to assume that the manufacturer is using materials, that won't break when walking outside into the cold. The back glass is supposed to be as strong as the screen (supposedly GG2 also). If the screen broke when walking outside, would I expect the manufacturer to replace it? I wouldn't have done anything that is unreasonable or explicitly outlined in the warranty (e.g., immerse in water or drop), so yes, I would expect the manufacturer to replace it.

The cold cracks are from placing a hotter than normal glass back onto a cold surface. Not from walking outside.
