I know there are a million and one of "i blacked out my bold" threads, and i hate to add another one, but after finishing it, i had the sudden urge to show it off :D
Ordered;
G1 trackball
Red OEM Keyboard
Black Bezel
Black Door Latch
Black Side Buttons
Nice a blackberry bold that blacked out always looks nice and always a nice thing to show off to non crackberry users!
Nice! I wanna do that to mine..

Nice job, looks good
Thanks
Teek, i literally was lmfao when i read "ATT, aka Call Failed"
I Must say, the G1 trackball absolutely blows the OEM one out of the water, the feel and responsiveness of it are way better. It also feels slightly higher then the OEM one, but that might be a placebo effect
nice! where did you get the parts from?
I'd also like to know where you got the parts from. (link?)
I do have a question about the G1 trackball.
What is the difference beween it & an "atomic" trackball?
Also what is an "atomic" trackball? Is it only for the 8900??
I ordered everything from cnn.cn
I've heard people say that cnn's quality isn't good, but they must have expected way too much or got a defective item because the quality is as good as oem, as if RIM themselves sent me a black bezel
The atomic trackball is the trackball for the 8900 and Tour, its really smooth, which I don't like, the Google's G1 Trackball is nicely textured and solid black. I actually prefer it over the OEM white one that comes with the Bold

they ship out of delaware
i got my parts a day after i ordered, but then again i live in new jersey haha
Hmm now I'm curious, wonder if I can purchase instore since I'm in DE.
I do want a new bezel, mine is scratched, just wasn't ready to void the warranty.

I doubt they have an actual store, but try calling their number and see if you can set up a meet or something. Good luck!
Damn that looks good, love the Sodaberry theme, best free theme out there.
Thanks. I agree on sodaberry, its def the best free one, highly recommend it, I just need a new wallpaper for it.

dude don't worry how many people have blacked out their bold on CB, i still have yet to see one in real life and yours looks pretty badass anyway
That is awesome!! How is the G1 trackball working?? Thank you for sharing!
Did you paint the trackball retainer? Or just take it out completly

The G1 trackball works very, very well. I use my berry a ton and it already feels better than the OEM ball in terms of responsiveness and tactile feedback.
I did not paint the trackball retainer, I had removed it the 2nd day I had my Bold since it gave the trackball a "higher" feeling. The actual "case" the trackball is housed within came black from cnn, on the OEM one it is white.
Forgot to mention, if you remove the retainer clip and use the G1 or Atomic trackball, some light will bleed through where the retainer clip is not there to block. Not a lot or an amount to bother you though, just an FYI

Way too monochromatic and static. But i feel that
way about every blacked out / white out phone.
Looks nice ... Good Job!
Dude what is Red OEM Keyboard? I don't see any differences with the stock Bold keyboard.
Certain Bold carriers like AT&T have all white keys.

Yea, the red ome even "clicks" better than the at&t one
