@urheelslooksogood get a new trackball housing has nothing to do with the trackball, lol. but any bbs wit a trackball the ball usually gives out all u gotta do is replace it, its easy nd itll be good as new again :D
@Limster17 What you need to do is change the stickers that connect the buttons to the housing. MonsieurBobbyTV has a video on changing the housing on this model and he shows what to change to make sure the buttons work. I had the same problem and didn't know how to fix it until I realized I was missing the stickers/ribbons!
@darkarsenal yea i figured. though i've managed to transfer mute and lock key. the others dont seem possible so there's still the original black base with my new casing =/
hi i was wondering if you could help me. i am trying to find a replacement lcd screen for my blackbery 8900, but dont know what version of the screen it is. i researched it saying that the numbers are situated at the back of the lcd but i cannot find them on the back. It is black with no stamp or sticker. Do you know anywhere else that i could find out where to find this information from? thanks
Hell, I got a new housing from these guys and they don't mention anything about how to transfer over the camera flash and the lower antenna that is integrated on the OEM housings...I had to keep the old OEM back housing because of this....
Hello. I changed my housing recently and it turns on fine but I can't hear the person I am calling unless it's in speaker. Also, the lock and standby button doesn't work! What do I need to do to fix it? Help pleaseeee! Thanks!
@n2dae2dadoublesa hi im just wondering if you fixed your phone? if u did i wanna know how pls. i just changed my housing and can hear fine when on a call but if phone rings, the music is all crackly! gettin sick of takin it apart and getting no where lol thx
my BB doesnt play music out loud but does thru headphones, it vibrates fine and i can hear people and talk to them but the ringing doesnt have any sound. so what do i need to replace? anyone?
doing this is kinda scary, i tried changing my nokia n95 housing but it ends up into a disaster...hopefully i wish could change my BB8900 housing too like what you did..looks new and perfect :))
So I followed these steps, everything seemed to go okay... But now I can't hear anything. No phone calls, sounds, music, ringers, no sounds on video... NOTHING!! Help.
this video is useless, when u are changing housing plates, u need to remove some stickers, that u will need for the new housing, plus u need to remove the camer, and the speaker from the back i just changed my housing plates, and it is a easy job if u know what u need to remove from the original housing
@mamaj3030 did u change the speaker on the back ? ofcourse u did right, well the thing is, the ringtone speaker is glued to the housing, if u take out the speakers u will break it, this happened to me, so i have to order a new set, or could be a bad connection between the speaker and the circuit bord which i don't it is, but trust me im sure u broke the speaker when u took it off from the housing, if is the ear speaker, well i have no idea, i changed both when i changed my housing
I just bought BB 8220. I was only available in red woth T-mobile, so ordered one and a black housing. Now i wana change it n dont wanna go wrong with it.
Can you help me with this..
Thanks anyway for this video, if I dont find any thing specific to FLIP, this video will definitely help to great extent..
Can you do one on the blackberry curve 8530? that's the newest curve from verizon, and the housing is alot different than with other blackberries. It looks like it just snaps off but I'm not sure. I'm scared to try to change it.
How much you will charge t replace it

There are two small white color square things on the old housing that you need to transfer to the new piece.

This is retarded, try making a video that FULLY shows how to convert, you forgot to switch over the standby and lock contacts. SMH 1 star.
