BlackBerry 9780 replacement parts?

**Bratza** · 02-26-2013, 10:54 AM

I dropped my white BlackBerry 9780 a while ago. Since this is was a second hand phone, I fould out that someone replaced the housing with some shiny fake plastic one.

Now I was trying to find a white housing with a battery door and a white bezel. Since I'm located in Serbia, there's no official place to find the parts or fix the phone.

Is there any place where I could buy ORIGINAL replacement parts? Not AAA class plastic replacements made by a third party, but the very originals, made by BlackBerry. I appreciate your help and please, excuse me for my ignorance.

BlackBerry does not sell replacement parts to us consumers anywhere. A lot of people recommend the housings from cnn.cn. I personally haven't bought from there and just buy them off ebay. If you are looking for a white bezel, it will definitely be fake.

I personally have changed many complete housings on 8520s 9700s 9780s and found most of them to be fine also purchased from Ebay. go for most trusted sellers if any problems they usually fix at no cost they don`t like getting bad reviews...

Does this mean if I buy the complete housing, the white bezel would not be fake? Thanks,Yosaki!

The one I sent you should be legit. The bezel isn't white, its silver or chrome. If you get like a "matte white", that will be fake.
