Hey, I didn't dissasemble it, just protected the screen, heart rate sensor and charge connector with adhesive tape. You think a "how to" video could be great ?

Well I wouldn't mind to take a good look at it, did you peel the rest of the silver bezel?

I've used some nail file, it's not perfect, but not bad either. Now to find some good plastic paint...perhaps some bronze nuance, I'm not so fond of golden...

Qtek 9100 (Wizard) Low quality case

After using the phone for tow weeks the dark gray part of the case (midle body) start to foil down like a nail polish and the gray paint is slowly going off revealing a black material. Did any one else have same problem ???? Some solutions ??? I know maybe is not such a big deal the device is a great tool and this is a small meter!! but i was thinking maybe is possible to wash off the painture until the black color of the material!!! any one did this ???
Many thanks for every body who participate in here!!! This is a great forum !!! the answer to my all questions is here!!!
I've seen the same on my 9100, but only on the right-hand side (the one with the camera & voice buttons). I haven't bothered to do anything about it, but I do keep the phone in a leather case, so the flaking shouldn't get much worse.
That the black paint comes off the device is a problem with all Wizards it seems....I have it also and I don't really like it.
Does anybody here know if there are Wizard cases for sale ....anywhere ?
Mine has that problem too...well, i helped a bit so..now it doesn't have any paint on it.

I dropped my TD2

Hi,
Unfortunately today I dropped my Td2 to the city streets! My my has broken!
The two corners on the top damaged and metal place under the buttons. But the touch screen not!!!
Has anyone information where can I buy frame for Td2 in the internet? I couldn't reach the service in Hungary.
Sorry to hear about your bad luck. If all else fails just thought I would mention I have seen a faulty one in the Marketplace in case of any use.
Hope you get sorted.
Look at this!!

Who knows what the silver color frame is made of.
It seems to be some kind of metal "cap" on a plastic frame.
But what metal ?
What do you think/know about it ?

Sorry to hear about your crashed device :-(
May be you can tell us now what material the silver frame is really made of.
Metal or only sprayed plastic ?
Under the 4 buttons is metal but the corners on the top are plastic.
Look this pic:

Finally I chose the official service because warranty. The price will be 75 eur.
That sucks that you dropped the phone. I have dropped mine twice at home on Hardwood floors and once in the street. The one in the stree was a ig one. Luckily the only damage is to the top left corner. It has a tiny indent. Doesn't bother me much.
Its made of plastic with matal framing in it.

Hi
Get a lanyard, then before you start doing anything slip the lanyard over your wrist and you can't drop it.

I'm not sure from the pictures but can anyone tell me if the front frame comes with the (touch) screen already in place or do we have to glue it or whatever ourselves?
Oh! Almost forgot....... I dropped my TD2 and the front frame is a bit damaged in all corners!
Has anyone bought one of these housings and found it to be complete (not missing the camera metal cover) from ebay?
I have been bitten once and am twice shy now.
Also trying to find concise disassembly instructions.

I have had mine for a week and dropped it today. I know you pain. Mine is working but got 1cm scratch on screen and a few dents on the corners. The scratch is annoying. I have insurance but I think I will wait until next disaster. This does not help you but atleast your not the only phone dropper

Back cover swap navy to white

I just took the plunge and swapped my navy back for cloud white. I like contrast of the blue bezel with the cloud white. I ordered a navy in case I switch back. What do you think?

It was easy to do from the YouTube videos, but I do stress caution as the plastic underneath can crack or damage components if you don't get the credit card deep enough. Also if you go too deep the card can catch some of the holes in the plastic shell. Had no issues with the volume ribbon. I even turned the phone on before applying the back to make sure everything worked. It was easy lining everything up before pressing the back on. It fits so well I keep trying to trick myself into thinking something is wrong!

Yes good idea. I got this nexus in a trade for my m9...(got cash too!) And the back had some imperfections so I was like what the hell try it. I feel like the white back is slicker which I like and less fingerprint prone.

Yes... Unfortunately I haven't found many on craigslist, but am satisfied! I think the darker bezel might hold up more to the occasionally hairline scratch as so far looks pretty nice. Not sure how the silver bezel holds up as if now.

Funny. But I've decided against getting a new back. Right now I have a blue skin and may get the white carbon fiber. I really don't want to rip off the back... even though I trust myself enough. Besides, more often than not I have a colored case that would hide the back anyway. (I have at least 10 cases)

S7 backplate template

Hello, I've got a question. Does anybody have got (or know where to find it) a template of the back panel of the phone? I've got a sheet of 3M foil and I'd like to cut out a protective sticker from it, but I need a template in 1:1 scale. Maybe someone have got something like this?
You may try searching on korean google.co.kr or ask from this YouTube channel JerryRigEverything
Not sure but I hope you will find that.

Slide system and bumpers

Does anyone know how the sliding system will cope with the protection covers and tpu bumpers?
Just got my mix 3, China version. Looks like the cases and bumpers could fit snugly around the top and both sides. On the bottom the front facing third is sorta notched so the face can slide down. At least that's what it looks like to me...
See case bump out on my mi mix 3
<just noticed the original upload failed...reupping photos of included case. You will notice the case does not cover the bottom completly, just enough for the slider to move.>

The bottom part is actually part of a larger piece of plastic that surrounds the entire phone, top and bottom. This piece slides within the bottom case.
There are even more variants available:

Is your case aluminium or TPU?, Someone in another thread has said they have problems with GPS when they have the case on, could be 2 different cases obviously but
