if anyone can get an extra Diamond cover from the store or youre an employee ill gladly pay for it and shipping as I work most of the hours Sprint stores are open. Gladly will pay like $15 to get it to me, all profit since its free apparently if you ask from the "extra" box. Just shoot me a PM if you have extra or can get one easily.

Would like to have an extra encase i ever need to bring it in to be looked at.

looks good

should i be concerned with the back cover warping due to the heat?

[SprintTouch08]

no, just dont boil the water. Keep the stove at low and it should be fine (no bubbles or ripples in the liquid, just hot enogh you cant keep your finger in for long)

took me 30 mintes at walmart to find the shid but needless to say im dying 2 backs and a stlyus as we speak....i still have 2 red stylii so im gonna see how it looks with the red accents.. i will post pics from my crappy renegade camera when im finished.....

came out GREAT. used a black tee shirt to buff and get all the extra dye off. about to take pics

sorry for the crap pics, i posted these in the TP forum also so people can see what is looks like on the phone

finished with mine about an hour or two ago.

guess i had the heat just a little too high b/c my cover is slightly distored.

i'm actually quite please because now it fits much tighter. thanks OP, and to the OP of the origial thread!

[tracerit]

can someone confirm if the texture and feel of the back cover is still the same?

[SOHKis]

yes, the texture and feel are the same as when it came out of the box... only black!
