hi all I have a white iPhone 4s and wanted to change the back and front to black.
I just wanted to know where I can get the oem parts to make the switch myself.
it's a iPhone 4s 16gb on sprint.
I am looking for oem parts since I read those might be best quality since I am looking for one that includes the LCD as well.
and do the kits that include the LCD use oem retina or a cheap one?
 
This was posted before. From what I remember someone said they got the parts from ebay.
 
Give you a wesbite and you can look for it

if you can need iphone 4s lcd,i can give you a link:

maybe it can help you.
 
hardware no true OEM parts are out there apple does not license with anybody all parts are aftermarket of course quality varies.

exactly, none of them are OEM, but the quality VARIES widely

I would avoid ebay as it is difficult to track down the exact feedback on the parts you are looking for.

I would instead buy them from amazon.com. Do a search for the black 4S display and look at the rating/reviews for all the parts. This is how I buy things on amazon and have never been burned.
 
To answer your question about a black to white conversion, don't buy their backdoor. They don't use apple logos on their backdoor. Go to Ebay and get one, but beware some will leave your photos fuzzy because of the flash.Check their feedback before buying.
