Re: Anyone replaced the N9 chassis/case?
 

thanks for the advice! I plan on buying some good screw drivers! can anyone recommend some?

my white case from freetrade21 was also via sweden? maybe he has some connection there and the are real? did your cyan one have CE markings on it?

Re: Anyone replaced the N9 chassis/case?
 

both my cyan and white casings have CE markings on them. But I would think that the CE marking is an easy thing to fake.

Re: Anyone replaced the N9 chassis/case?
 

I guess, although i have heard some people say there housings had other markings and not CE markings! They would probably still have a CE mark anyway as they are shipped internationally

Did it today after borrowing a Dremel and removing the stuck screws:

been looking at your photos and quite impressed with the effort! still building up the courage ti do this! how is the speaker performing? is the falsh ok? the two housings look near identical! you too have numbers written on the ribbons whwereas your black housing does not! I have yellow writing near the speaker yours has black writing! not sure what this means?

how would you rate you new housing? real? all bits line up perfectly by the looks of it!

Speaker works okay, can't hear a noticeable difference. Flash works (both bright light and "red" video recording). Also tested: Buttons, headphone jack, front camera (using "Simple Mirror" from Store).

I called somebody today and they said that they understand me now clearer than before (but that might be because my original old housing / microphone had some problems since the beginning). Also, my old housing was squeaking a bit when you squeezed it on the lower left edge, this is gone with the new one (but again, it seems like my original housing was a bit bad in general).

In general, I'm quite happy with it so far. I noticed a small dent at the back near the silver camera thingie, but not sure if it came like that or if I did this. It's nothing functional, just a cosmetic thingie, and not really noticeable until you look really closely.

Great job on the housing replacement!

I like your standby screen with the added date and battery info. May I know how did you get that? :)

Re: Anyone replaced the N9 chassis/case?
 

billboard standby screen its thp's app available on the store. A must for every n9 ;)....

So if I have scratched gorilla glass I can buy it somewhere to replace mine? Do you know where from?

Re: Anyone replaced the N9 chassis/case?
 

Just search ebay for "nokia n9 display" - because the glass is attached to the screen it comes as 1 unit (you can't just replace the glass itself)
