[Q] Camera from China OK? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need a new rear camera for my S4, but there are so many different prices.
On Ebay I see OEM for 18$, but is this really OK?
Or does anybody know where to buy a camera as good as the original?

Yes it should probably be ok.

Do you have good experiences about this?

All the parts come from China. 18 dollars doesn't sound like a strange price for a part.

New Back Cover

I have recently dropped my phone, and two of the clips that keep the back cover over the battery clipped off, so it easily falls off now. Is there any place I can buy a new one??
Thanks,
Chris

Don't forget the movistar one don't have the GPS and lenses cover, you have to bring it from your old cover.
How much was shipping? Let me know when you get it, if it fix your phone, I'm getting one myself.

Howto identify the model

Hi,
Am planning to buy a N1 (from ebay india) to sink my teeth into Android (not just the app development part).
Just wanted to know if there are several different models of the Nexus one out there? And if so how to identify each.
Also as I'm getting it off ebay wanted to make sure I was not getting a fake. So does anyone know how to identify if it's a fake when I receive it?
TIA
Theres only one model of the Nexus, the Nexus One.
How to tell if its fake... i dunno. Maybe the ebay description :-/

Check out the FCC number on the back to be sure whether you're getting the 850/1900/2100 version or the 900/AWS/2100 version.

Do this! Make sure you get the right version for you!
(FYI - if you don't care about 850/1900 vs. 900/AWS, you should know that the 850/1900 is no longer available, so ebay prices for it seem to be $100-$200 more than the AWS version [which can still be had as the dev phone from google])

jeez, dude...understand the question!
And also it'd be good to know if it's the AMOLED or SLCD model. You can tell the difference by the way it looks booting up in a dark room. What I don't know is, are there any differences in the model #s written on the back of the phone for the SLCD models?
Thanks for all the info folks.
But is there any info that I can ask the dealer (from the packaging etc.) to determine if it is a genuine piece.
And any way to confirm its the real deal once I get the phone (while booting or something)?
Just trying to be careful as I can't afford to waste too much (still studying ), and I don't want to get some cheap chinese fake.
TIA

If it's a knock off, it's not going to be genuine Android, so it'll be obvious.

HTC One Turkey

I think we could use a topic like similar ones.
How many people has it? Did you encounter any problems with your One and where did you buy it?
Darkhan total i brought 50 items none had complaint all had little line on gap very little 3 had headphone broken but they send it to Teleservice so all happy.
Mine were first batches but now i have bought another 5 from UK they seems much better build quality but i dont know which batch they sell at Turkcell
I bought from Turkcell, mine is perfect. They let me check the phone before I buy it.
I bought one on tuesday, but there were errors on microphone.
People couldnt hear me very well, sound was low and nor clear all the time.
I gave it back and waiting for a new unit.
This is my third phone this month,
I was using htc one x for a year, begining of this month I bought xperia z but i didnt like it and changed it to ONE.
I was missing my one x while using the Z, but one is really great

No luck about accessories yet. Noone knows they'll arrive.
But if you go Beyoğlu, check Turkcell Pera Mağaza.

Update to help anyone out there looking for a new oem battery. I took a chance and bought one off eBay and it seems to be good and ships from USA, it looks identical to the original one except they put black tape over the name Huawei which I just peeled off. The sellers eBay name is 8-50855. Good luck!

And? Have you installed and tested it? How was that fiercely glued down battery
When you complete the R&R and test it please let us know how it went.
Sorry me saying seem to be good meant that it is installed and working good, like when new. Yes installing and removing the old battery is a bit of a bear I got it done by watching some YouTube videos. Anyways I bought my 128gb phone used and I'm out of warranty so.. Haven't run it down really low yet cause its lasting all day not like my old battery. Cheers

Oh you know what, I do remember seeing that earlier but have never used aliexpress before. The one other time or 2 i looked at that site, it looked like you could only buy items in bulk quantities, like if u were a redistributor. I'll go look at it again

I let you go see.
If others can affirm my words!

What country are you in?
If you're in America, use Swappa. That's where I got my 727, and I couldn't be more happy with the thing! (Besides the fact that my camera lens cracked 2 days after I got the phone... That's besides the point.)

I totally agree if you're in America take a shot with swappa. I see one X727 on Swappa and I would post a link but I believe its against the rules on xda. It seems reasonable for a like new pricing but you could always barter. I have had nothing but positive experiences from swappa and hope you can join the the LePro3 Family
