Lol... I googled while at work and skimmed through links and saw it come up a few times so posted it... I was a lil out of it... My bad
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
honestly unless you paid a lot for the case i say just get a new one. being the type of plastic it is most chemicals would probably damage it. they are cheap enough to get new one.
Ok thanks everybody, I can try bleach but I'msure the smell would stick. No it's not expensive. Another one wouldn't be too bad. I remember something about a solution that you could spray on but couldn't find it. Thanks again!

Buy a black one? Or a different brand?
I know, not really a solution, but a cover that changes color within a few weeks or months ... can't be made with very good material.

Alright how bout I sell the two tpu cases for $5 (black and red cases) the white frosty case i will do for $8 the carbon fiber case for $12 and the tough covert 2in1 case i will do for $15.

I the best price i have seen for a Screen without the bumper is 249 300+ with the bumper around the screen.
its not really hard to change out either. Changing just the bumper is harder than changing just the screen, especially if the other screen is cracked and you are not trying to save it.
parts are out there though.
i have dropped mine 7 times now, and plan on throwing it against the wall here in about a month and getting square trade to give me another device, or the replacement cost.

Ha ha, well stupidity is one thing I just can't tolerate, if people choose not to educate themselves and instead insist in posting stupid stuff on xda I'm forced to say something. Stupidity is a choice!
But a straight up accident of this magnitude after only 10 mins of having the phone is no laughing matter, accidents happen and in this case I feel for the guy.

I have got the answer for you, this is what you must do,
1. Buy an S3 display + digitizer from ebay:
2. Follow this video tutorial:

Same here. I upgraded to a new phone. I was hoping I would be able to stick with Motorola, but nope.
At some point I'll probably drop $30 on the new digitizer and try to resurrect it.

Couple of question:

3) Was it hard to replace?
4) How much it costed?

The digitizer is super easy to replace.
I used ifixit.com's teardown and was able to figure out everything I needed. In fact I was actually replacing a water damaged lcd but I had to tear the phone down in exactly the same way. 20 minute job for someone with almost no experience inside of electronic devices.
Well, i finally dropped it. I wa sitting down and the phone was sitting in my pocket. (Small pockets+big phone, not a good idea). When i got up it slipped out of my pocket and rolled a bunch of times. Luckily, nothing happened to the screen bt the bezel is chipped pretty bad on 3/4 corners. Just wanna know, will samsung replace it? How much will it be? And is there any other alternate solution thats cheaper?
Thanks
Sent from my SGH-T999V using xda app-developers app
Hey, really sorry to hear that!
Ok now i don't think samsung will do anything unless it's a mistake from their side. Still you can go and ask them and if they agree with to change the bezel then very good! I am pretty inexperienced about this thing but telling you from what I've heard and seen. If they don't agree then you might have to pay them to change the bezel.

Yeah, that sucks
But honestly, i dont know why samsung used so much plastic on a premium device. The bezel couldve been made out of something much stronger. Look at the iphone 5, i know it lacks in software but i gotta give it to apple, they made it out of very strong and materials.

The 7100 allows wireless charging, correct? If removing 10 or so screws and swapping a back plate is all thats needed for wireless charging, I'll order one of these. Let us know how it goes.

That's pretty cool man, glad you decided to give this a try. But from the posts and videos I remember seeing there was a little more to it than just exposing the metal connectors. I'm not sure exactly. It was a long time ago and I never bothered to follow up on it cause I figured it was too much work for something I most certainly won't even be using in the near future. But I hope it works! If it really is as easy as just changing a piece of plastic I'm all over it, whether I end up using the feature or not.
Yeah I remember reading that people had to put a couple dabs of solder on the contacts to build them up in height. Without that, the contacts would be too low and they wouldn't touch the charging pad. We'll see what happens when xterra gets the part. :fingers-crossed:
It wont fit. I did the same. The housing is different in the area just above the battery
