Exclamation My iPhonefixed White iPhone 4 Conversion Parts Have Arrived!

As promised, I did say that I would let you guys know when I finally got my white conversion parts from UK company, iphonefixed.co.uk.

Parts received..

White front complete
White back complete
White Home Button
White Headphone Jack

I also have a white dock connector sourced elsewhere which is genuine OEM Apple stock.

The arrived well packaged, and in their own boxed, with hard foam packaging.

I'm currently uploading a video shot of the unboxings, and overview of parts, but below I have added several photos of said parts as promised. The quality of all parts, look, and feel superb, and the front lcd backing looks to be OEM to me, let me know what you think.?

Front camera, and flash de fusser.


Back wording


Front inner lec rear protector, and barcode.



Ear piece, and proximity sensor area of front. (There is no speaker mesh).


Home Button surround



Clear raised lip around the whole circumference of the front. (Anyone elses like this? Is it like this on the black model?



iPhone Headphone Jack (White)



All of my photos (Many not shown here due to limited to 10 photos) in Extra Large size can be found here on flickr.

I will add the link to my Youtube video once its completed uploading.

I'm very interested in hearing from you guys who have sourced these parts elsewhere, especially if you noticed any differences between any of these parts I have from iPhonefixed.co.uk

Also would be great to hear from anyone else who is considering the conversion, be it by themselves, or getting a company to carry out the conversion for you.

I will keep this thread alive with updates as and when I carry out the conversion, detailing any complications, should there be any, and of course sharing my experiences in carrying out the conversion too.

Awesome! Can you tell me how much you spent on parts total? Also, how hard/easy is it to actually do the conversion yourself. I'm very interested in doing this.

Thanks again for sharing.

Just watched the video. Cool stuff although the speaker grill doesn't look like the one on the black iPhone 4. I wonder if it's been redesigned?

There is no speaker mesh, but iphonefixed.co.uk said that they will send me this soon, as they are currently waiting for new stock to come in.

Awesome. It'll be nice to see the finally outcome. Are you going to wait until they send you the speaker mesh before you do the conversion?
