[Q] Replacement back door? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am wondering if anyone knows where to get a high quality replacement back door to the SGS5 (black) that have the glossy finish of the white SGS5?
Preferrably as close to original as possible with water proof lists. Does this exist?

Yes! Sw-box.com I bought the blue cover and wow! 6$ for waterproof original cover. Love it. They have white gold and black.

Does it have the hard glossy finish or the original soft-ish texture?

Lots of vendors sell the part, as a simple Google search would have shown you. sw-box, Amazon, Ebay and hundreds of others. Most of the parts will be replicas and while they may have the water resistant gasket, it's impossible to say if it was manufactured to tolerances that mean it will really resist water intrusion effectively.
And it's not likely that you will find a high gloss black battery door. Most of knockoffs are imitating the Samsung design, which as faux leather have a grain and satin effect, and are a charcoal grey, not black. An extended Google search would be your best hope of finding a Chinese manufacturer that used a glossy finish on their part.
.

Of course I found 100's of back plates on ebay. Not many seemed to be of good quality thou, and even less with water gasket. Is it so wrong to ask for advice?

How about getting a quality back cover (water resistant of course) and sand it down with 1500 grit sandpaper. Then, using Fusion paint (designed for plastic) paint it any color you want? That's what I would do. Then you have the glossy Black cover with gasket. Boom.
You're Welcome.

Sand back cover for grip

Ever notice how the back cover of your phone is very slippery? Has anyone tried to lightly sanded the back? I think I am going to try it.

Put a strip of duct tape on it instead. That way you won't ruin the cover, and duct tape will make it stick to your hand!

The slippery back is the main reason I got a case, but if you dont want to run a case I would try something less permanent before sanding the case.
First thing that pops into my head is 'grip tape.'
maybe some more like this would tickle your fancy?

This is perfect. Im gunna lightly sand mine with some 1200 grit auto just to take the gloss and make it flat. If it doesn't look good I'm just gunna buy a rubberized back
Edit: I just sanded it. It looks and feels pretty cool. I little bit more grip. In a month I will probably buy a new back

OK, easy solution is Zagg invisibleSHIELD. Get the front and back, nice and grippy, I love it.

Seems to be out online, but eBay has them.
I ordered the blue and green, because from what I read (on other forums) they have totally different textures.
Almost dropped my phone twice yesterday, so hopefully I'll be done with the slippery plastic cover soon...
While mine are in transit, has anyone else used the rubberized battery covers yet?
Thoughts on them?...

I have the rubberized back (green) for my atrix. I personally love it more than any other case. It doesn't add bulk since it's just a replacement for the battery door, and it's grippy enough that it doesn't slip out of my hands. Best $15 I ever spent.

I wish they had a same size battery cover as OEM specs that had a rubberized coating. The ones mentioned in a previous post look like they wrap around the sides of the phone and have queer colors. Plain black would suffice my needs.

The best option would have been the Motorola Droid/Milestone rubberized backing.
The battery door was durable metal on the inside and rubber on the outside. Also extremely easy to open and close with metal hinges.
The Milestone just SMOKE the Atrix in build quality, sadly the specs are a little outdated otherwise I wouldn't be looking to upgrade it...
I am thinking about trying the 1200 grit sanding idea and then painting the battery cover white. Any thoughts on this or what type of paint to use? I am relatively new to modding, painting, etc. and want it to look as clean as possible. I'll planning on following it up with a Zagg Shield. Thoughts?

I forgot what type of paint to use. Clear coat it to make it look good and protect the paint.
I voided my warranty.
Cool.....I have a spare battery cover so I'll try some plastic spray paint with several coats and follow up with a clear coat. Thanks.

How is everyone liking Pebble Blue?

I got mine yesterday and think the front of the device looks great. The deep blue color with the brushed metal looks great along with the menu button and the invisible capacitive buttons. I wish the faux metal band around the phone was silver and not bluish silver. The back has a completely different color than the front (it's way lighter) and is super reflective and gathers fingerprints like crazy. Not a huge fan of it and I'm wondering why Samsung didn't use the same color as the front.
What do you guys think?
I do really like the phone. It definitely is a fingerprint magnet. I really like the brushed metal look on the back. I am not sure why they went with the two different shades of blue, but overall it does not bother me. It looks very smooth and you can't go wrong with the screen.
Loving mine. Found a replacement battery cover on eBay that is just black and has a metal cover - better than stock in my book. Designed for international, but works perfect, and this way I can leave the stock battery cover in the box and let it remain perfect for resale...

Love it. Glad I didn't get white.
I do agree with all your points, except I like the blue chrome edge.
I'll probably get a clear case, so I'm not so concerned about the back and fingerprints.
Can you post some pics

Great...
I too love the blue. I got this case and it looks very nice.
I like it just fine. Posted in another thread that I was having second thoughts about the blue until I actually got it in my hands. The back is definitely a fingerprint catcher, no doubt about it. But like many, I plan on having a case, so it won't matter at that point.

They did use the same color but different materials absorb color different and therefore the color look different. My car has the same issue with the gas cover.
Very happy I went with blue. I almost went with white because something about the thought of a blue phone didn't sit well with me... but this is not at all what I was picturing. Very nice, deep dark brushed metal look. It's perfect really.
I love the pebble blue color. I just can't do a white phone, just not my thing.

I disliked mine at first.
It was a total fingerprint magnet and super shiny, weird looking.
Very slippery to hold and rather cheap feeling.
Then I put a full-body plastic wrap on it.
That made it almost fingerprint-proof.
Also made it grippy to hold.
And makes it somehow feel like a more expensive phone.
It also makes this thing freaking brilliant/shiny!
After 24 hours, I'm now really starting to dig the way the phone looks.
The full-body wrap was a much better improvement than I was expecting.
---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 PM ----------
I still hate the purple home-button though. It won't be long before someone is selling stickers to cover it up I'm sure.
I just hope it's a "thick" sticker so the home button sticks out more.
And I don't want to use a phone cover anymore. The blue is really sexy right now with the body wrap. Which somehow just doesn't seem to get any fingerprints on it.

Great find.
Too bad they don't have one for my tablet yet.
I'll probably pick one up for my EVO 3D, since it's only $3.00.
For Galaxy Nexus...
I have all 3 - Skinomi, XO Skins, and Xtremeguard. Skinomi has the best cut but it's too soft that it would get dinged easily and not all of them would cure. XO Skins had a strange tint (even after a week) and the most orange peel.
Overall, Xtremeguard is the best for me. It's the closest to dry film in terms of surface smoothness and rigidity. The only negative is the cut - it covers the light sensor and there is a wide open cut above the earpiece and camera lens, but I think it's still a better overall protector. It is also has very little tolerance in terms of edge-to-edge size - you'd have to install it exactly and it is stickier and dries faster than the other brands, so little room movement while it's still wet.
Don't get the full body. The the side and back covers are not cut all the way through so it's kinda useless because it would stretch while you're trying to peel them out and detach them from the sheet.
The film quality is excellent though.

I've received 2 full body from them. The second one was a replacement after I complained about the cut, but the replacement was exactly the same. The back and side are useless because you can't peel and detach them from the sheet.

Chipping on the black version?

Having come from the HTC one S in black I am well versed in chipping problems on metal HTC phones, I have the One now in black and have noticed the first chip in the chamfered edge on the top, if it was the silver version I wouldn't have even noticed but the metal underneath appears a bronze type colour.
I haven't dropped the device and it is only ever in my pocket and I have a nilkin case but it doesn't protect the front edge. I hope this isn't the start of another saga... :crying:
I have 2 scrapes/chips on mine also and it hasn;t been dropped or bumped. Always kept in its own pocket etc..boo
Mines fine, nothing to report so far.

Dude thats not even a chipping....
BUY A PERMANENT GREY/BLACK MARKER for METAL SURFACES at your local pen shop and cover it up, should be invisible and will be good to cure other chippings too.
Oh man! That looks disgusting! I would go for a replacement!
But seriously - no. This is nothing. Let's get some things straight - "premium" feel of aluminum comes at a cost. Aluminum is soft, other stuff in the world is hard. Tiny speck of sand can do such a "damage". So just chill and accept your losses. iPhones 5 were more chipped out of the box.
You really can't eat a cookie and have a cookie. Just accept that no matter how you protect your phone, it will get damaged. You can always completely cover it with a plastic case either to protect it completely or to cover the chipped part if it is ssuch an issue.
I wonder how long it will take people to undertand that "premium" materials have a premium feel and premium look out of the box, but there is nothing premium about their durability. Industrial devices are made to excel in durability. Anodized aluminum and glass are the last materials of choice.

not the silver one, it wont scratch as easily
anyway what do we expect, if you read anandtech's review of the iPhone 5 you would understand this is a physical issue
however it can be countered by a some sort of nano coating which i am yet to see applied on a flagship phone

Chip is if you see the white aluminium base. This is not a chip. I know chips, my HTC One S bounced 3 times on the ground and got 4 chips. (and luckily screen didn't shatter lol)

You can see a base, I am not worried about this tiny chip, what I am worried about is if it is the start of something bigger like the One S. It seems HTC industrial designers have not learned their lesson when it comes to coatings and sharp metal edges.

Looks to me like it didn't anodize properly in that tiny spot. When you say that is shows bronze underneath, that tells me that it did get anodized in that spot, but the growth (yes anodizing could be considered a growth) was not uniform with the rest of the product.
If you didn't know, the anodized coating is similar to microscopic "tubes" that grow on the surface of the aluminum. These tiny "tubes" hold dye to give you the desired color. When you anodize something and it doesn't get enough growth, the color will be less saturated... literally. Hence the bronze color underneath. Think of the color of a black sharpie that is more or less dead... when it is new, it will draw nice and black, when it gets old and dried out, it will give you that faded "bronze" color.
In the end, these "tubes" are sealed holding the color in... I have attached 2 pics to give you a better idea what the coating really is.

Thank you tnEVo, that is a brilliant explaination of how it works.
Silver scratches or dents as easily it's just less noticable.
The problem is not really the color or anodizing when it is of good quality (=thick anodizing and hard aluminium, theres several grades of industrial aluminium and anodizing, cheap ones like on the iphone 5 and sturdy ones that are 3 to 10 times priciers, I don't know yet which one is used on the one), the problem is the chamfered edges.
90° angles are very vulnerable to denting/crushing/impacts and scuffing because thats where the aluminium is thinnest, at the top of each chamfered corners there is the thinnest ever peak of aluminium, and that peak gets damaged the first be it black, or silver or anything because it is the thinnest part of aluminium of the phone (cutting the top of a pyramid is easier than the bottom right ?).
"Now, after using the phone for more than a week, I can say it’s surely one of the best phones out there, if not the best. It’s got issues, for example, with the pretty finish chipping off, but I’m been very impressed in other areas like battery life and camera."

Slickwraps Naked Wrap and Aura Glow Note 10+

Hey guys,
So I pre-ordered the Note 10+ in Aura Glow color and I've been pondering what case to put it in that won't hinder it's awesome looks.
I came across the Slickwraps Naked skins, and they seem like a perfect fit for my needs. I checked on Youtube to see if anyone else had done a comparison between the glossy and matte versions of the naked skin, but it doesn't seem like anyone has.
I'm curious if the glossy naked skin is as prone to fingerprints as the normal back of the phone. It seems the matte is less of a fingerprint magnet, but I don't know if it will block the "glow" on the back of the phone.
Has anyone else thought of doing this or had these skins on other phones in the past?
Subscribed, I'm interested too.
I have used them, it still gets fingerprints but nowhere near as bad as the bare oem glass. Also, some clear cases stick to the clear wrap giving it a water bubble look. I wish I had a picture to show you what i mean. With my note 8 and note 9 and a slick wrap clear skin, tech 21 pure amd speck Presidio clear didnt stick to the clear wrap. UAG, otterbox clear symmetry, and spigen clear case all stuck to the clear wraps and gave it that water bubble look. Those were both on the note 8 and 9 with my personal experience. Not sure about other cases
The TRANSPARENT SERIES Skins are amazing! They have one for the note 10 plus...
Stay away from SLICKWRAPS. Terrible company.

I have had d brand, slickwrap and a company in the UK called xtreme skins. All three were decent, slickwrap has a way better color/style selection and always has discounts. D brand was really good to, packaged a little nicer and shipped faster but selection wasnt as good as slickwrap imo, xtreme skins has cool options like a cutout for the samsung emblem(kinda like what dbrand does for apple) but quality was a notch below dbrand and slickwrap. Still pretty good though but also took a few weeks to get.

Yes definitely show some of the matte clear style, I ordered clear and carbon fiber style like I do every year. I'm pretty sure you'll recieve 2 of each(2 gloss and 2 matte) because when you order a naked style, they ship 2 incase you f up. Atleast that's how it's been the last 2 devices I ordered for.
I've bought many Slickwraps skins and Dbrand skins going back years. Dbrand are much more precise and fit to the edges better, but Slickwraps have a better selection (love their nature series)
I think both are shady in some of the stuff they've done like promotions with winners that are related to the company, or spamming reddit with bots dissing the competition.
Here are some images from previous phones running slickwraps skins:

Please update Pictures as soon as possible once you get both the device and the skin. I pre-ordered the Aura Glow edition but want to cover it with a Naked Skin from Slickwraps to avoid fingerprint smudges. Let us know if it retains the awesome looks after using the skin as the pictures might not show it
accurately.
Also, update about which one looks better: Matte or Glossy.
Thanks.

Will do! I just got the email notification that my Slickwraps shipped today. I still am stuck in "PREORDER" status for my Note 10+, but I'm hoping that will change pretty soon.

Have to agree. Last two times I placed a order it took them 3 weeks to send. Both times I had to send a email asking wheres my order? The last one I got for the Note 10 plus it had a bunch of pin holes around the hole cut outs. One of the skins is useless.

Never had issues with them. Been ordering from them and dbrand for years.
I got mine today, i ordered the matte finish for my aura Glow. It adds some texture and increases grip, but at the same time it takes away from the aura glow finish. It looks more like silver now.

My slickwraps are arriving today. I got the glossy and the matte. I will take some pictures and give a review of both so everyone can see the difference.
