Chosen Solution

Hello I have a iPhone 2g and would like to refurbish it but cannot find a original back housing for it in the 8gb model. If anybody knows a place or website that would be great! Not bothered if outside uk but would rather be in uk. Thanks Lewis Look forward to hearing back from somebody!

Hey guys, is there still someone interested in iPhone 2G housings with custom lasered IMEI number in 2020? :) I maz have the chance to get some with customised lasering.

Hi, i’ve been hunting for one as well. after a long search, i’ve found some available here: shop.td-phone.com i just have placed the order, so i don’t know if it’s a scam of there is a catch yet. i’ll let you know.

Unfortunalty i just got an paypal refound. It seems that the part is sold out. (8gb)

I am actually finding some selling for $35. And that site you have shop.td-phone.com actually has the cheapest I have found so far at $34.99 (even better than ones coming from Hong Kong and Indonesia). I found a few on Alibaba for between $1-$20 (I think it depends on the quantity you buy and I do not see the original type face on the casing). However, I trust nothing from them and before I purchase anything I will inquiry about it with the buyer (for instance, they were selling “nuclear batteries” for cellphones, which turned out to just be lithium-ion batteries). I will let you know how it goes. Here is where I am talking about: http://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Si… I would like some device if silver is the right color for repairing my phone see pictures here: iPhone 2G (1st Gen) 8gb back panel repair

If you got something better let me know! I would much appreciate it because the math here is not making sense. I am spending already $50 (new LCD screen, antenna cover, front bezel) and having to spend another $34.99 seems overpriced when you can only really sell a used iPhone 2G for $68. If I try to undercut the market and sell it for $60.99 I make maybe $10 in profit? How’d that make all that labor worth it?

Try looking around ebay for salvaged ones. I’ve been looking around, trying to repair my 3 2G’s, so far so good..

Found 1 on Ebay for 20 dollars and 3 dollars shipping
