My 930 isn't bland any more

[eusty]

When I bought my 930 I chose orange as I love to colour and also wanted it to stand out....and it did as often people used to ask about the phone.

A year later it goes back to be repaired as the mics don't work correctly (no surprises there) but they say they can't repair it....so here's a new one....but black!

After a couple of months with a boring black phone I decided to get a back from ebay (with the Qi, flash etc) and changing it was easier than I thought. Not bad for ?10 or so.

Now I've a colourful phone again, but green this time....although I might get another orange one and swap them about. :grin:

Do you swap at home? Or take it an expert?

Swapped it myself, it was easy an only took a couple of minutes. Next time I reckon it will only take less than a minute!

Just did mine yesterday coincidentally, was also black and I made it orange. Looks so cool!

Can you post instructions on how you swapped it. TIA.

I have the 930 in white and was thinking about changing the back. Could you post the link where you got yours from please?

Just make sure you get one with the flash and Qi etc fitted. Many don't mention it and don't show the inside of the back.

To fit was easy, just get a sucker on the back near the SIM slot and pull it, then use a guitar pluck or similar to work the back off...then just snap the new one on...job done!

Just bought an orange one to fit....
