Its cool..I also want to replace my N9 case with the white one.
But, would my phone warranty will be void?

It is logical that you lose the warranty..

has anybody heard anything about if this guy is legit?

what's the best + most reliable seller that we know of?

thanks, appreciate the feedback!

Any reason why Nokia is not directly selling these cases? Could als be nice that we could easily go to a nearest Nokia Outlet and let them change these for us, instead of fiddling with the phone and end up breaking it. And buying the case from them would guarantee us that it's Original. Unless they want them to break so we can buy more!

is that ebay link definitely metal?

I know there is some debate about whether the various replacement housings from ebay/etc... are real/copies. Having purchased and changed my housing I would say it appears to be real (not sure how come there are so many on ebay!) But *IF* they are all copies, then maybe we will get to see yellow/red colours that I keep seeing for the new Lumia's that are coming this week.

Would anyone else change there N9 for a yellow casing if it was available?

Technically, NO.


I sent mine to Nokia Care because there is a stripped screw inside causing me unable to remove the plate inside, my phone is still under warranty.. Its best to send it to them.. BTW, do prepare your own housing as Nokia Care selling those housings for more than USD$150

I tried replacing my housing because my old one is chipped and now the Nokia won't turn on. Any suggestions? I didn't even get all the way:

Undid 2 body screws.
I took out the screen.
Undid 2 battery-housing screws.
Reassembled from here.

I never took out the battery or touched its connector.

Now when pressing the power button, there is no life at all. Any suggestions?

If you just tap the power button, does the bottom-left LED light up briefly? It should even if the screen is mis-connected. Make sure the battery connector is fully pressed down.
Or perhaps the battery has discharged due to you inadvertently shorting something? Disconnect it, hope, reconnect it and then attach a wall charger.

I have watch one video on youtube resembling n9, and i think inside the phone is a litlle button to press before closing covers to activate the phone...thou i em not sure with it, but you must check for it.
