any local NSC should replace the casing, if that is what you're asking. if you go there directly they replace it for free you just have to cover the price of the case which here in Manila is around $6. 8)

LOLZ Sean... you've been to GH recently? I don't wanna mess up there. TRAFFIC and all. Maybe after the Holiday season...I'll go check some housing. 😃

kobs, i was telling him about the casing from Semicon, i got mine replaced for 300Php. i havent been to Greenhills lately, but i will be there this saturday, i know how shitty it is there but i dont have a choice -m havent done my shopping yet!

dang it! this probly the only downside of Christmas! non-stop shopping! 😃

at the nsc here in holland they said the blue casing was some different size, therefore it couldn't fit on the 'old' grey ones..

I just went Hong Kong recently, I spotted their N7650 is in sky blue color! It is very beautiful. anyway if there is really cover for sales, how are we supposed to change it? It is not snap on type. :angel:

That's it in the UK, they won't sell you the cover unless you let them fit it, otherwise you would have to void you warranty to fit it.

no it isnt but a local NSC can replace it for you. as i mentioned above here the labor is free and i paid only for the casing itself. i might just be the same case there in your country. 8)

LOL!!!!! 😃 it's funny how you beat up your phone foxhound! careful or you might just have to buy number 3 (or is that number 4?) 8)

The black one is non Nokia one.I dont like it.

Ghostdog, i dont know if we're talking about the same thing but the one here in Manila is an original, the seller just painted it black. i didn't get it though, painting was butt ugly! 8)

Well,i saw one in a local store.It really looked ugly and i dont think it was made from the same material as the original nokia cover.
I might be wrong though.

35 Euros is very cheap. is that only for the front green panel or the battery compartment side as well. i got a cpl of marks on the back as well ? and how bot the safety screen cover. does the new panel have the sheild on the display or no ?

The shield as the "plastic sticker" on it? I don't think you mean that! That thing is the most part of the 7650 that shows scratches!

But it if you mean the plastic thing on the fron of the screen, yes the cover should include it. ("should" cause i haven't changed my cover)
Yes yes the plastic thing in front is part of the cover, been mentioned here before.
😃

i got my cover changed once! not in another color though, but the plastic shield is still there!

[quote="Jesal"]...is that only for the front green panel or the battery compartment side as well...[/quote]
It is for the whole casing, both sides, new "window", and cleaning of dust. 😃

"...she said it will cost me about $14 for the front panel, about $5 for the back and about $3 labor so thats a little under $24 we're talking for an official original new body.."

here's the post
