Just received my S500i housing from ebay, very impressed, all the parts fit perfectly and i did not even need a screw.
              Final product    Sorry i forgot to rotate the pictures before uploading them. Also my screen is not cracked or anything, i just need a new screen protector because i messed mines up. Overall, i am very happy with this product, i was tired of seeing everyone having w580's. This post has been edited by aznric313oi: 2008-05-03 02:23 |

Let us know about the keypad cracking problem. Maybe it's better quality than OEM.

isn't that a w590i in a s500i shell? Shouldn't it be better if you just brought a s500i and flashed it to a w580i?

Great Idea!
What about the black joypad? We have to replace the orange to blue by painting. -------------------- R.I.P Michael Jackson 1958-2009 |

How about adding an AT&T chin, as those say "(W) Walkman."

I will get more pictures later... it was late when i switched the faceplates. Now i have the features of a w580i but the look of a S500i which i am loving, seeing as how no one really has this phone. I was tired of seeing w580's all over my school everywhere i walked >.< I'm trying to find the ebay seller but the link is down. http://cgi.ebay.ca/Faceplate-Cover-Housing...oQQcmdZViewItem
This is also a good one: http://cgi.ebay.ca/Sony-Ericsson-S500-S500...1742.m153.l1262 This post has been edited by aznric313oi: 2008-05-05 02:47 |

Yeah I'm in USA. I never knew that the AT&T chins said (W) Walkman and the regular ones didn't. I saw a Rogers one that said "Rogers", so don't know about other providers. It's good to make up for the AT&T logo instead of the cool (W) above the navigation pad. I like it better with the chin inked.

I used to have the rogers logo on my w580i chin. I use the sandpaper to remove the logo.
