Default New back cover

New not Bew

Any one know where I can p/u a extra stock back cover?

I want to see if I can sand the back so its textured and repaint. I only keep my phones for a few months and sell it so I will need the original cover w/o any mods.

Call att and ask for a new one. They usually send new battery covers for any phone for free.

I would like to find a replacement as well. My SR first lesson in gravity resulted (thankfully) in a noticeably scratched battery cover.. Naturally before my aftermarket case protection has arrived from China.
If you have found them or have a contact within AT&T or sammy you can recommend that I call please reply with linkage.
Thanks

Well they used to do it and I'm assuming they still do. I cant find a link though. My friend would always call att and get new covers for his atrix and they sent them. He got like 5 free.
You could say there is a defect and I'm sure they would sent it but I don't think you need to.

Google recently returned a new website that sells the back cover piece for 14 dollars plus 6 dollars shipping. For what it's worth od rTher take the ebay deal and get the extra battery for the same cost as what everyone else is charging.

I bet he is just a matter of time before those covers are only 5 dollars shipped
