did you use a black marker

try using dye..
i remember someone doing this for the touch pro 2.. i have the phone before and the desire z feels the same so it might work
they used dye to add color to the matte part of the cover

I really need to know how this is done. I've had 3 G2's cus they keep changing a yellow color. If it was black I wouldn't have to worry about this.
Please share.

Same here. I got the gel case on mine as soon as I dropped it the first time and don't take it off except to clean the dust off. Still looks mint except the one corner of the phone where it fell on.

For the final sanding I would use somethin really fine or you could even semi-wet sand it and you'll get a great finish.

Can you post better pics...i want to do this.

Looks good bro, even though mine has been in the case since day 1 I think I still might try this. I always wondered my they only made the G2 in silver...

I don't intend to be mean or anything.........but maybe wash your hands more often? Had mine since launch and there is no discoloration.

Cracked camera lens WTF

This isn't a small issue I Googled to see if I could replace it and low and behold a bunch of others with the same issue...I have never dropped the phone I baby it but it happened...I think u all should take a look...anyone else?

Pics or it didn't happen!
You probably didn't crack the camera lens, you probably cracked the plastic lens that's over the camera, right?
You need this piece:
http://cgi.ebay.com/New-HTC-EVO-Spr...ewItem&pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3a5d074580
You can see in the teardown pics that the camera lens is actually under this piece. Better hurry though, that's the last one (I bought the other one for a project I'm doing).
Im suprised that this is such a big issue.. ive never had a problem, neither have any of my friends. Well, ill take that as we are lucky...

new hole on bottom of evo

i got my evo on july 3, never even considered putting it in a case because its just so damn sexy it should be naked all the time.... so wednesday i noticed a scratch or maybe a crack on the screen. took the phone in and they replaced the front housing front display and rear display.... now theres a little hole on the bottom of the evo to the left of the microusb port that wasnt there before. What is this? it looks like the little reset button my kaiser and touch pro had, but obviously the evo has no stylus so what gives??

Wow! Very nice! The springs seem to not be available right now. I also have a little fear of disassembling my phone.. The last time I did it, it was on a Sony Ericsson k800i, I ended up break the power button off without even knowing it until there was no feel in the power button when I tried to turn it in.

Sounds like it might be hardware damage. Did you check and see if the battery has a proper connection. Does it turn on and off by itself or only when you move it?
only when i trow it let say in a table a bit hard but if i just lay it it wont
If you throw your sensitive electronic device at a table, it shuts off? Stop throwing your phone.
Sounds like a loose battery or bad power connection somewhere.

Yeah we get it.
Don't do that.
Be nice to your expensive phone that would cost $200 to replace even if you bought it used.

Mine does the same thing when I drop my phone on my bed... It is caused by a little play between the battery and the battery cover. Apiece of paper folded and cut to the size of the battery and placed between the battery and cover has done the trick for me, and I believe it is just because of wear on the battery cover from pulling it too often...

If Duct Tape can't fix something (anything!) it's either damaged far beyond any hope for repair, or it wasn't really broke in the first place.
There's not a lot of middle ground.
Well phrased, and I'm glad that when my phone fell off the bathroom counter and bounced screen first off the hardwood floor, there wasn't a sign it had ever moved, aside from some dirt on the screen

you sure? I got the ultra optics, both of the protectors have 'back' written on the tab, its just to represent which side faces the phone and doesn't actually mean it goes on the back of the phone.
Im not sure which one your ordered but most SGP's just have 2 fronts included as standard.
Lol! OP is a retard. He got two screen protectors for the front. Who would manufacture a SCREEN protector for the back of the note? The back is just to indicate the side that goes on the screen.
