Sounds like I just got unlucky with my rear case then. Had notification today my free replacement order is being processed.
 
Here is a pic.

Do you think maybe the rubber gasket around the camera lens shifted and is causing your problems. I find it hard to believe they misaligned the camera port on the back case. As these case are identical to the ones apple uses. Tabs and all. Also, did you line it up with the original case just to double check?
 
Pretty confident my rear panel is at fault.

Here is a picture of camera with OEM rear

Here is pic with the modified rear, notice the lense is too low and too far to the right, this causes shadows at top right of any pictures taken.

Waiting is the hardest part...

Finally got/found my tracking number on their website. Now the status shows it's been stuck in Los Angeles since 1/11 "processed through sort facility".

Ugh..
 
Anybody have a link to a good install guide for the CDMA version? The video seems to be down and im feeling a little intimidated here...
 
I received mine from KO Gadget today. My fingers are too big and my hand shakes a bit for me to do this installation.

I made an order on Dec 18 when K.O.gadget was first taking orders... Canceled it, and I still received it? Haha. Going to install it tomorrow...
 
I installed my white one today. Install took about an hour. The finished product is perfect. I'm a happy customer.
 
I just bit the bullet and purchased a black one for my old iPhone 4. I can't bring myself to do this to the 4S until I try it on the 4. Apple should take note, and do this on future iPhones.
 
I've been thinking of getting this but after reading some reviews, this mod apparently screws up the proximity sensor. Can anyone confirm? Thanks!
 
I got mine and they sent me the wrong backing. This is my own fault but I did the whole mod and it was sweet! Went to put the back on for the final step and discovered it was the wrong back. My own fault for not checking it first. So, I had to take it all apart.

I've emailed KO Gadget repeatedly to get the correct backing shipped out with no response at all. I think I'll be calling my bank tomorrow. Bummer cause it was a pretty sweet mod and easy to do.
