It looks as though the Nexus S has the same painted speaker. Anyone tried this yet?

If it does I'll probably do it.
i'll prefer it black to combine with the rest of the phone flush look/theme
even my gel case is BLACK
Black looks much better.

If and when you do, please post some pictures. I don't think it'll look bad though its stealth-like looks would be diminished. Anyway, show us if you do!

I've just received my Nexus One today, but found out there are two hairline cracks around the headphone jack, is there anybody have the same problem?
I had the same problem with my iPhone 3GS before...
they look perfectly straight
are you sure they aren't designed that way?
I'm thinking they're just there from the mold they used to cast that piece.
I have those too... didnt even notice it... I think its part of the hardware though from the looks of it.
I have the same; looks like it's definitely from the mold they used and not actual cracks.
You may now breathe a sigh of relief!
Cheers,

Ditto.
it doesn't look like a defect. i was about to cut a mofo if it was.
WOW! OP, your and Id10t!
I'm really sorry, i never try to offend anyone its just that this question and looking at the pic got to me.
I got those too.

wow your very kind
please excuse someone who was afraid that his 530 dollar investment was flawed.
Mine doesn't have those
If it is a crack this suffers from the same thing as the x1 xperia

Same here, got mine today
I didnt notice till I looked at you picture then my phone but yeah, it's just part of the mold.
Mine doesn't have those marks. But it does look like something caused during the manufacturing process.
ive got em... had to get a bright flashlight to see em but i have them too, and they dont go down into the jack so its not a crack
Got bored of painting xbox 360 controllers and cases, tried my evo..
Opinions?
Steps:
1 Disassemble phone (Take off back cover, unscrew frame)
2 mask off non paint areas
3 sand
4 primed painted with Dupli-Color Adhesion Promoter (3 light coats)
5 painted color (Krylon Fusion 3 light coats)
6 painted clear coat(Krylon Fusion 3 light coats)
7 reassembled.
In my opinion, you need a new camera. Or maybe I need to get my eyes checked. I'd ask for a second opinion.

Yea, sorry for the **** camera quality :/
Hmmmm....if only there was red carbon fiber dinoc. ;(
Looks good, but slightly to much like the red xbox controller for my tastes.
i guess the thread title was "check the quality of my camera"
phone looks good. Glad to see you made it your own.

Yeah, I wanted to get a glossy paint like underneath the kickstand.
The paint was too expensive as it was automotive paint... but i think it came out pretty good.

Orange peel much? Maybe its the camera but it looks like the finish on a refrigerator.
hats off for the idea tho. But I like black personally lol.
ehh its ok to me but i like the stock better in my opinion i guess i like my electronics clean looking
The camera doesn't do it justice, it actually is very slick and works well with the red inside and under the kickstand..ect..
i love it
what kind of paint did you use?
how did you paint the sides?
Edit:btw it looks great love the red,but im just lookingto color the saids.
Don't pay any attention to those that bash! They have their insecurities that need to be displaced by putting others down. This planet would be much better without them!
Like the saying goes: "mean people suck"!

It seems like my tablet is coming apart on the bottom near the USB input. Anyone else having this issue? Doesn't seem to affect performance just an annouance.
Mine doesn't look like it's coming apart, but i can press my thumbnail into the groove and it will separate slightly. Doesn't seem to do that on the other side.

Take it back, it's clearly defective and you shouldn't have to put up with that on such an expensive purchase.

Those things hurt. Sharp little critters.
Had an extra red back cover. Decided to take the risk and see if I could remove the logos. Used 5000 grit wet sand paper (used for headlights) and a lot of patience. And wallah no logo. I made sure to go real light on it so I don't affect the soft touch coating. Turned out way better than I expected. I thought there would actually be some marks left or a change in the texture. But nope, looks and feels the same just no logo
Nice job! Looks great! :good:
That's what I like about the ballistic nylon. No Verizon logos.
Well done. :good:
I can't stand how far Verizon goes with slapping their logo all over. Especially the poor phones that suffer the fate of a Verizon logo under the display.
I saw someone that suggested using clear tape and granulated sugar to remove logos, never tried it, but seems like it could work.

Interesting. Can you elaborate a little? Do you just put the sugar on it and tape it on? And he eats the laser etching away? Lol or do you treat it more like a sandpaper.
Looked like he used it as sandpaper. Sugar was aggressive enough to remove the painted logo, but not harsh enough to damage the plastic.
I don't understand why the Logo is so maddening to some people.
I don't have a logo (Ballistic) but I did on my last phone. Never bothered me.

It bothers people because of bad placement and also if u bought the phone out right you should have say on what is on it or not. verizon being the way they are is the reason so many are leaving to go to another provider.
Nice photoshopped pic. lol

This is my personally reason. Let's say you bought a BMW m5. So you expect the BMW logo. You expect the m5 logo. Now imagine, smack dab in the center of your hood is the dealership you bought the car from logo. Verizon is the dealer. They provide a service I pay for. I don't feel they have the right to advertise on something they didn't build.
And besides all that..I think it looks cleaner.

Hey everyone.. Just stopping in with a quick question. Have been searching for an answer and found this discussion...
I have the Turbo BN 32GB and it has the VZW logo directly above the metal Droid logo on the back.
I have seen quite a few other BN versions without the VZW logo so I'm wondering how I go about removing it?
It appears to be applied to the BN similar to the way an iron-on patch is applied to a shirt. I would say it is certainly removable, just no idea how to attack this project. I obviously do not want to damage the nylon in the process.
The main reasons I am wanting to remove it are I believe the BN backing looks phenomenal without it and I am using a PureGear clear case which puts the BN on prominent and permanent display. Would look so much more slick without the VZW sticker plastered on the back. (Tried including a picture but that is a no-go)
Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Is anyone's screen slightly raised up a bit near the volume and power buttons? Like maybe a few mm or less? This is my 2nd replacement, which also has this issue. I'm not sure if I should RMA again if others will end up like this. Is it normal, I would like to hear from others who have the 6P? If it won't fall off over time, I think I can live with it lol
Mine is not

Yes, i can see that at the top of the device glass is flush with metal rim, and on the side i raised 1mm, maybe less. But if you don't like it try to contact google and get new one again...

Considering my first unit was like this, I doubt the next one will be much dramatically better. I can live with it, but I am worried that it might get worse over time.
Mine is not.
