Guest Roph Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Dealextreme just added both white and black (grey) housing sets for the V880, which is physically identical to the blade :lol: http://www.dealextreme.com/p/zte-v880-replacement-full-housing-with-buttons-white-109095 http://www.dealextreme.com/p/zte-v880-replacement-full-housing-with-buttons-black-109094 I've just ordered a black one, I'll finally be rid of that orange logo and I can keep the other bits for spare parts :). I remember seeing others wanting replacement back covers for a while and only finding extortionate prices on ebay, this is better :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bouncer5 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Anyone know where to get new glass? One ive got a hold of is broken. Digitizer still works tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve T Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 I ordered one, will report back if digitizer was super-glue sticked. I have changed a screen/digitizer before. You have to carefully push the screen/digitizer out the front from behind. quite a tense moment but it worked OK. The glue remains tacky after seperation from the case but since this seal needs to repel water I added a little bit of silcon Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve T Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Anyone know where to get new glass? One ive got a hold of is broken. Digitizer still works tho brand new Glass and digitzer are sold as one unit, a guy on ebay sells them from hong kong. But the're pricy (IMO) (although you can ask for different logo on the glass, ZTE, San Francisco, or blank) I bought a blank one. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ron=) Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 For those who ordered the covers, are they good quality or do them seem like 3rd party fakes? Was it easy to perform the cover switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oxyg3n89 Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Quality is good, not much difference from original . Separating digitizer from original fascia is very risky, the strenght of being glued to surface could be stronger than digitizer itself, so i broke mine very easily, even trying it with care and soft push from the corners.. However front is good for new digitizer, cause glue is there. Battery cover have lense, power swith keeps in place, easy to add :)but no soft material protecting camera from dust and camera lense letters shine too.. :D Edited December 31, 2011 by oxyg3n89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest antzti Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Does it have volume buttons? I'm missing those. Nope. For those who ordered the covers, are they good quality or do them seem like 3rd party fakes? Was it easy to perform the cover switch? Quality is almost the same as original ones, these are not so "soft". Switching these covers is not the easiest thing to do, and it requires patience not to break everything with too much force.. :D Switching the housing also avoids your warranty! Is it possible to fit a ZTE Libra into these? No its not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its not to much hassle can u make a video guide? and is it near impossible to use the same digitizer or would i need a new one.

I want a white oled blade that would be awesome I've ordered one case, one protective back case and one pack of disassembly tools from DX. Damn, things there are so cheap!! The status of my order is: backorder. Does anyone know how much time can it take? And i would appreciate a tutorial to :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest meep.o.matic Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 No its not. Then, does anyone know where I could buy/order a replacement housing for the Libra? I read somewhere that ZTE is not planning to sell those to the public... I knew I should have bought the Blade instead... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a sneaky suspicion that the Blade housing will fit the libra perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
