Are these back plates your designs ? and how do I get one

I have one on my phone right now! I love them and so does my wife. They are a little pricey compared to Deacalgirl and others but they are top notch quality and fit perfect. I have a couple that I swap out every so often. If you peel them off and stick then on the paper it came in you can reapply then later.

So they are reusable? I was reading on their FAQ that they don't stick the same after removal. How are you able to reuse them? I was looking to buy a couple and swap them out.

Yes, as long as when you take them off you are careful. I make sure to put it on the sticker backing that I pull the new one off of. They kind of "heal" themselves a little so if you get a finger nail mark or something like that it will usually come out. I recommend them, they are nice!

New case!

OK then,
I was going to get a new housing for my sad looking Ameo. They come in the standard Ameo silver or a rather smart HTC black. I already have a silver case, but here is the question.
Do the black housings, wear, scratch, or paint rub away easy? I don't want to get one and find it looks crap after six months. They ain't cheap! before anyone else says it, I know it depends how you treat it. I'm on about normal wear and tear use. How does yours look now? are there any signs of the metal underneath showing?

Black Case On The "advantage"...
Hey Jay,
I have a HTC Advantage x7501, with the black case of course, and have been using it with "typical" every-day use now for about 6 months. I have never even seen one of the silver cased "Ameo" versions of the device in person, so my review is a bit "one-sided," if you will... Also, I have a friend with whom I work with that also owns the same model as I. With saying all that, and without having experienced the silver model, I would bet the silver model would hold up a bit better on the finish due to the fact that if the silver gets scratched, the metal beneath it looks much closer to the silver finish than the black. I have a couple small blemishes on mine, and I am very particular with my mobile devices, but after using day-by-day at work and home, it has managed to get marked up just a bit. The biggest problem is, if you get a scratch on it, the metal below sticks out "like a sore thumb!"
I definitely believe that the black finish is a bit more professional looking, where sometimes the silver finishes can make a device look cheap or make it stand out.
Anyways, to give you my honest account on TWO Advantage x7501 devices (black finish) after 6 or so months of daily use, it is overall good, and neither one shows any major signs of wearing finish. Also, we both use a case that the device "slides" tightly in and out of each time you use it (without the keyboard attatched), and the device really hasn't shown any real signs of wear on the sides where it rubs the case. However, if you do happen to mark it up in any way, you will definitely notice it. Again, I am very picky, so keep that in mind, but so you have a better idea of what I am saying, I attatched a couple of pics so you can see what it looks like when or if you do scratch or mark it.
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
-Ryan
Also Note: Only one of the devices I wrote about is pictured, but are very similar in condition, and were both purchased slightly used.
X7501 Cosmetics...
I have had my X7501 for almost 10 months now and it only has one very tiny mark on the top right corner (you have to look hard to even see it).
Since I'm also very particular about my devices (I always keep them looking new) I just used a Sharpie (permanent marking pen) to "erase" the offending mark. This works great and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to touch-up black anodized aluminum like the Athena housing.
Wow! thanks for the reply Guys, Ryan that was one hell of a reply. Must have took you a while to do that and I appreciate it. toyfreak, the idea with the marker pen is a great one. I think on just that idea alone I will get black. Its harder to touch up silver! It looks better too.
Regards
Jay
Indeed is surprisingly hard coating, I carry mine in my pockets and can't say I'm careful with it, rather the opposite, I have it since it came out and there is only a little wear in one of the corners, hardly noticeable, where the scratches are more visible, is on the silver border next to the screen, not that it look bad or anything.
Black housing - Where?
I would like to know where you can buy a black housing for your Ameo, mine needs a new one as well!
And what about your keyboard, can you get a black one too?

Silver / AMEO
Hi guys,
Proud owner of a wonderful brick since 6 months in grey color I should say that if I new I would have choosen a different color.
The grey AMEO housing is far from being "time resistant"...
Since few weeks the "video camera" around the front cam as disappeared and the "Alert" will soon do the same.
I allways take good care of my stuf and I'am bit disapointed for a 1.000 bucks machine to see it !

Hi,
Just a quick update on the new housing. It's arrived, and I put it on. It looks great, so glad I got black. Thanks to those who took the trouble to answer this post so well.
If anyone needs a new housing for their device then let me know and I will let you know where to get them from. He claims to have a few left!

The X7501 does not have the internal or 2nd camera, the X7500 does. So I would have a big hole in my unit if I used that one. I don't know if the inside layout is any different but that's the only visible thing on the external end.
I need a new housing too.
Anychance you could PM me a link or contact for this.
Thanks in advance.

LMAO dude have you been drinking? The 7501 has 1 camera and the 7500 and the 7510 has 2. I own the 7501 which is also cheaper than the 7500. I suggest you google them and you'll see the difference.
tootallk is correct. 7501 has 1.

hi
you are talking about a extra case to protect the athena right?, the thread is about replacing the cover / housing of the athena itself, a step that becomes nesesary when you not use case like your nutshell .
anyhow (and to really come back to subject ) i have to replace my housing too and wonder, why nobody can simply post the web/email adress of a reseller here?. i searched alot now an only find companies in asia and prices 'far away from reality', so if someone know a good reseler please post here.
thanks mad

Battery Cover

I know this belongs in accessories but I believe the more people will see it here.
Click here if you want to buy a battery door.
The point of forum separation is to keep things organized. It doesn't matter if more people will see it here, it's the wrong section.
Thanks, that could be a very useful site!
Lol "OEM"
Moved to accessories.
darn they're out of stock. Was thinking of picking up 1 for myself since I scratched mine.
I can't wait for them to come back in stock. Great find.
You sir are the man.
That **** scratches so easily.
thank you for that! now i can save on the back case and just buy a new cover
maybe one of the only pros for Samsung making such a cheap door. :\
I actually got three before they were out of stock an sold two an kept one. These things scratch so dam easy its almost not even worth gettin a replacement cover cause itll be scratched as well in no time. I even put a zagg on the back as soon as i got it an when i took it off to put a bestskinsever on it still had some fine scratches on it an i baby the **** out of this phone, so the only reason i can see spendin more money on a replacement is if i cracked the cover or something
I will buy some once they are in stock.
I will be ordering too once it's back in stock. Already have 2 fine scratches on the back after keeping the "stock" clear plastic cover packaging thingy for over 3 weeks. The scratches came from me wiping the back from the oil in my skin with a lens cleaner. UGH.
But curious, the battery cover has that antenna. I wonder if this OEM cover will have it, my guess it won't. And if it doesn't, I suppose we have to remove the antenna from the old cover?
They have they antenna in them

Yeah, seriously why would these not have them. They're OEM.
I want one. Since people have 3... Be sure to list an extra on ebay for those of us that can't get the stock I'd also like a new bezel... Lol. It has some slight imperfection 'mini' chips but I guess I could try sanding it? Lol

I would assume so as well. But I have bought OEM parts (for the G1) and when they specify back case, it's just the back case. No cushioning foam or whatever that was attached to the one that came with my phone.
But I just checked the additional pictures and it does show the NFC antenna. Good thing. Just hope they actually ship as that.

Anderdroid, I believe the thread is for the back (battery) cover and not the fascia (bezel). I checked the site and there is no listing for what you're looking for.

Oh yeah I know it's about the battery cover. I need one of those too.
I thought Samsung would have done something similar like they did with the Galaxy S give a spare one with maybe a different colour, or just a spare, I honestly don't know where you could buy these from Google themselves, because this is very much vital to the NFC feature to work, if you break it then you NEED a new one, and one from China might not work the same. These might be OEMs, but it's better than nothing.
Good News : Nexus S OEM Back Battery Cover
Hello folks,
I know we have all been wanting to protect our Nexus S, especially the back battery cover.
I have been searching...and finally found this one site that was selling, but they were out of stock for some time. Recently they changed the status to be available sooner or later than Feb 14th 2011.
This is great news, and thought i will share it with you guyz.

Damaged my casing, felt like crying :(

I've been meaning to order a silicon or other type of protective casing/sleeve etc since im quite prone to dropping devices, luckily never done any real damage.
Yesterday I had my Tab in the inside pocket of my jacket and when I pciked my jacket up to put it on it slipped out ad I swung jacket and the Tab came crashing down to the bumpy concrete floor.
My tab now has scratches/dints in two corners, I'm so [email protected] pissed at myself for leaving it this long to place order.
Needless to say I will be ordering right away.
Does anybody know of a way to get the casing replaced as I would kind of like it to be pristine as I've only had it little over a month.
Youd like to replace the plastic casing, have I understood you correctly?
I don't know if this would pay out at all.
I just googled for the casing. Best I could find is the backpart. But you said the edges where damaged.
I would advise you to rather spend that money on a really nice case and cover those dents up.
So I don't use a case either, because I don't want the tab to get bulky.
So I can't recommend a case too you.
But this relies quite heavily on personal preference in anyway.
galaxy tab 1.4.5 overcome
I actually preferred the full black casing and was hoping I could get a full black replacement but haven't seen any about anywhere. If/when I do ill make sure I post about it
Incipio Feather. Get one.

Now, now children, play nice before the big bad moderator(just kidding) comes and closes this thread....
1) Personally, you and I may not see eye to eye on the forums, and I smirked when I read the OP... but whateva
2) I'd think getting a nice sleek case would be a better option than cracking the tab open... unless you already have (which wouldn't surprise me ) I have one that adds only a couple of millimeters of thickness and protects with silicon AND plastic. (Nice latches on the corners provide extra protection on the sides/corners) I like it.
3) This thread is likely to get closed by days end... So I just wanted to throw my 2 cents in regarding the ACTUAL topic at hand.
4) This whole thing has been mildly amusing. Can't believe I actually sided with Athiest in my head

Well tbh I want to do both. I want to replaced the chipped housing and then get a protective sleve or casing aswell.
Gunna pm the dude earlier who said he knew whereto get them (He never pmd).
Fair enough, I just don't see paying to much to be worth it if 99% if the time it's covered by the case... But for the right price, can't say I'd want any different for my precious tab.

My homemade book case

After realizing I didn't like my $5 dollar velcro sleeve and not willing to spend $50 on a Portenzo or anything like that I set out to make my own book case. There's multiple instructions online how to hollow out a book but they're all basically the same. This is the most detailed http://rive.rs/projects/how-to-hollow-out-a-book and I mostly followed it but I didn't save a page at first so whatever. You can also tell I didn't do as good a job because I wasn't as clean on the corners and didn't take a lot of time. I also cut into the back a little but it's ok I might even paste a page back there to cover it up.
I'm not sure I'd suggest the sketchbook I bought because it's one of the Nepal Lokta ones and they have kind of "fuzzy" pages. If you're wondering a Moleskine notebook is too small. Just go to any book store and look at the hardcover journals/books. Books are actually cheaper because they have like $5 dollar bins and whatever but you have to like the cover of the book. I payed $13 for the sketchbook.
I'm also thinking of adding either an elastic band or magnets to secure it. Probably an elastic band because I'd have to cut some more to make a hole for the magnet.
Here are pictures (What most of you care about)

It doesn't stay in there, I don't like having a case always on so I just pick up out of the book when I want to use it. I've seen other book cases for Kindles or Nooks that use elastic bands on the corners to keep it in if you want it that way.

NVM I see your response that you take the N7 out of the case when you use it. I thought it was wedged in there and kept in place with some sort of rubber inserts in the corners to keep it from slipping out. My bad. :silly:

hm, if you don't mind, I'd recommend putting some thin foam-pads (the stuff the use to do for packaging) which might reduce the movement of the nexus while in the case? And it might give you a little bit of extra protection

I'm kicking myself a little for throwing out the foam insert that came in the package away but it's not that bad. It's barely loose so I'm not worried about that and for protection once I have the cover stay closed it shouldn't be bad at all. I could also line the inside with felt or something.

Nexus 5X now being Toasted! (toastmade.com)

Toast is laser cut and handcrafted from sustainably grown, North American hardwoods, back by high grade adhesives from 3M. The hardwood veneers used are just shy of 1mm in thickness, so they add protection, grip, and gorgeousness, while retaining the sleek profile of the device. Easy to apply and remove, Toast will never harm your device, nor will it leave behind any permanent residue. Get a design or custom text "Toasted" (laser burned) into your cover for only $5. We'll even work with you to create a custom cover with your own design; just upload an image file and tell us how you'd like it laid out in the order instructions. Our customs designer will email you a rendering and work with you to get it all dialed in prior to sending it back to production for crafting.
We've been doing this for almost 4 years, and still the only ones wrapping devices in 100% wood. No plastic, no bull****; just real wood and leathery goodness, handcrafted with love in the USA.
Thanks for checking us out, and please let me know if you have any questions!
Very cool idea, only concern I can think of would be the wood covers in humid climates. I will be looking into this further tho. Thank you.

Our 3M adhesives are amazing, and we actually use different ones depending on the materials of the actual device. We've been shipping internationally since day one, and to some of the most humid climates in the world. Rest assured, it will never be an issue.
Website?
I have some concerns about this skins. As you said the adhesive is different and I saw that for removing it we should use a hair dryer. Back plate of the N5X looks like a little bit naive. May you guarantee that this skin won't damage N5X's back if I want to remove it?
Sounds interesting! Please post some pics when you have the 5X version ready! Send one to me if you want an honest review as well!
I too would love to be able to review one of these skins... I dropped you a pm about that last night, op.
I had never heard of Toast until last night, and I spent a good 2 hours on youtube checking out all the phones that it has been made for with all of the colors and optional patterns & etching. Extremely neat stuff.
Safe to assume the 6P is soon to follow? Any chance of leather for both devices? Inlay? Custom etching?

We're getting the 6P all dialed in right now, and we'll commence Toasting next week. I'll be sure to let you know when they're up on the site.
Both 5X & 6P are part of the Inlay Series as well, and we offer custom etching on everything.
As for leather, we determined that it's going to take a lot of design work on these guys, so we're holding off until more requests start coming in. I've added you to the list, and I'll be sure to keep ya updated!

Hitting the cover with a little heat from a hair dryer will help release the adhesive and it will come off with ease. If you do not do the hair dryer trick, there may be a little bit of adhesive left on the device, but you can literally roll it off with your fingertip. Rest assured, the OEM back will be exactly as it was prior to Toasting. We've covered countless devices without issue, however we would gladly replace your phone if it's damaged in the removal process.

Thank you so much... but alas I really do not have any formal review site or channel. Maybe in the near future though, so maybe I can take you up on it for future iterations. My reviews would be pretty much limited to a few message boards such as this one.

Thank you for your quick response. I also want to be informed about durability. But I need an honest and objective response. It's wood so how durable is this skin? I don't mean protection.

Toast is built to last, and it ages gracefully. We use high quality hardwoods that receive 3 coats of a hand rubbed finish to protect from the elements. If it takes a hard hit, the wood may show a little scuff or scratch, but it looks natural. You can also apply a tiny amount of olive oil and it'll blend right in, but I personally prefer the worn look.

At least for me, durability, as far as cosmetic looks go, wouldnt be an issue. I love the look of aged wood. Love the idea of making my phone look like something carved from an ancient forest, transported back in time and now just rediscovered.
