Heh lads just came across this housing kit for the w800i and im wondering if I can use it on my k750i

http://l8shop.net/Products/Or[....]00i_Smooth_White_Housing_.aspx

It is a housing kit for the w800i and I love the colour of it, Under the picture it says compatible with the k750i is this true?

thats pretty cool, I only got the k750i 5minutes ago.

Always wanted the w800i but too expensive.

No Key pad with this though,so it looks like this advert is a W800i replacement only.

It might be compatible with K750i but it's the back portion which I think might not go with K750i because the camera slider in K750i is different than W800 so first make sure about this stuff then spend your money.
True love is a rare find so don't let it go once you get it by luck.

Although the camera housing/cover are different between the two, I was told that the actual camera positions are the same, so regardless of which housing to which phone, they will fit.. can anyone vouch for this?

Has anybody tried putting the D750i case onto the K750i? I love this case but some concern over the camera area and whether or not the slider will work?

I thought you had to buy a special W800i housing that's been tweaked to fit a K750i? I'm wrong right? So you can put any W800i housing on a K750i?

Yes you can covert your k750 or d750 in to a w800, and the other way around. BUT.... you have to be verry carefull, you have to take your phone completly apart, right to the bone:P lol
Then you just reasemble in you new housing. here is a link for taking your phone appart, and building one from the bottom.

good luck, i tried to do it, and failed:P.. luckly i could return my telefoon, and it got repaired

BTW:| DON'T FORGET TO ORDER A JOYSTICK, most of the time's this is not included. you can ofcourse use your old one, but it is just not the same.

When you have changed your housing, its time to look at your firmware. you can also flash your firmware to a diferent version for example w800i. just look for some topics in this forum, of look up at google.
