i doubt they will replace your wifi chip as wifi chip already soldered to the main board of iphone, they cant simply solder out and put another wifi chip, if they tell u need to change the board it might be true...but if they tell you they change the wifi chip , they are lieing ...most probrably they just erase all your baseband and update the latest one.

so dont be cheated by them...i hate those shop who like to cheat people...simply do baseband erase need RM700? doh.gif  rclxub.gif  shocking.gif

you're not advised to dismantle youself because there's a lot of parts u need to take out from the original iphone and stick correctly to the black housing...it's not like take out the housing and replace another so easy....

find someone who's more professional.  smile.gif

Agree. I also hate those people who charge exorbitant rate/fees for such an easy task like unlocking and all. They got it free from the internet and dare to charge so expensive.

The black housing only have the housing (obviously) without the other fittings. I forgot the site that show a guy replace the cover to the black ones and its hell of a process. There's few small parts that have to use industrial glue remover and those part are SMALL and BRITTLE. Dismantling the cover is a tough job but it can be DIY. I already replace mine (damaged while doing the failed H/W unlock) and nokia2003.

Someone in the forum already done that. The hard part would be ... like i said .. opening the back cover. There's 10 screws holding the chrome bezel.

Check this guide to know more on how to change it. Word of caution, its not as easy as it looks in the guide on how to remove the back cover. Nokia2003 can confirm that.

I think you problem can be solve with the dev team swifi fix for greyed wifi. Do read more about it at iphone-dev.org before doing anything or else u'll end up with more that just a greyed wifi. Its not a hardware problem.

@JasLyn
Bricked phones? Sure can't recover? Got a working commboard to help a
fellow iphone owner?
I've already experiment with my phones. Got the back cover if u want to study the structure.
