Not at the moment,... u would have to 1st reach a 100 post before u'll be able to load ur own avatar,..,.
 
Yes you have. Welcome to the League.
: Shows a secret doorway, into a topsecret area with super fast computers etc :
Come In.
 
I can find quite alot here,.... and obviously they are pirated,....
Does ur country not sell pirated/non-branded covers??
 
:Tilts his head up and walks proudly into the topsecret area: :p
:Both ski_ and myself waits at the doorway for infra:;)
 
Does anyone know if the front faceplate of a 7210 will fit on a 7250i. I really like the look of it, and they're basically the same thing save for the camera.
 
Over here they even sell 3310-3650 conversion covers, ie a 3650 cover in a 3310 phone.
 
yeah they sell pirated covers, some even say nokia on them anyway. but i dno't know where to look for that could u guys help me out?
 
How about the grey market? I've never been to california, so I don't know. But if there is a grey market then you can see the cover and even check its quality. I think uBid, and eBay also sell them. Trust me it's a pain registering in eBay, god knows what all they need. I've never tried registering on uBid though.

EDIT:It does not matter if they say nokia, coz over here every pirated cover says nokia, and you can't even make the difference between a pirated cover and a real X-press On
 
Which means 36posts more. Don't worry, time will fly like anything. At the beginning of this month I was at 54 posts, and you can see that now I am near 400.
 
u can get faceplates made for that purpose .. to convert from one phone look to anoter .. i got a 8210 that looks like 8310
 
Yeah,... i don't know about ur country but they sell covers for 7250i which looks almost exactly like 7210 over here,... only it wouldn't be original though,.... whether the orginal 7210 cover would be able to fit on a 7250i i'm not so sure,... the back probably,... but the front i don't know,...
 
lol,.. Yep,.. a member at the start and now a phone addict .... looking forward to seeing u as a Sr.member infra...
 
hmm,... interesting,... In Malaysia, as they print Nokia on the cover itself,... it's illegal to sell it,... but since they don't print Nokia on the cover itself here,... it isn't illegal....
 
So you mean it's actually legal to sell those covers.
Nokia could file a design infringement suit, but I suppose malaysia is like India, you try to suit just for the heck of it you'll be j****d yourself.
 
It's supposedly legal here cuz none have any brand, let alone 'Nokia',... so they can't catch them (stores selling un- original covers)....

I'm not so sure about ur country though,... Unless the piracy rate is exceptionally high,... i don't really think Nokia will take much action...
 
yeah.... i was never much of a fan of status titles. i just want the glowing my name and my own icon. hey! i started this thread....
 
right well getting back to my question (no i'm not self-centered) i am registered with ebay already but i haven't found anything like what i'm looking for.

i have a black and silver faceplate, both from ebay, that have nokia written on them. I'm pretty sure they were originally OEM plates but where spray painted or something cuz they have the insides engraved and everything, but i know nokia doesn't make those colors for 7250i, plus they don't have accompanying keypads with nokia written on them. i don't really care who made it tho as long as it still says nokia on it and doesn't suck too bad.
 
Same here. No one's really bothered, even PC CD's, you can buy them pirated on the roads itself.(around $2), there's an entire area(not lane, not street, but area) that sells pirated CD's and noone's even bothered. Irony is that even policemen come there and buy pirated Cds
 
thanx you guys, i posted this thing like 3 weeks ago, and i kinda got over that idea. but thanx anyway.
