I've done it many times. It's easy to do  :)
Just be careful when you install volume button, smart key button and camera button  :)

i'm from Indonesia, i've change my casing, and i did it my self, i think it's not hard to do, but there's still some parts of installing you have to be careful, for example, when you replace the earpiece, you have to lil  bit struggle cause it's attached by glue,  you have to remove it from former casing carefully.

but over all, it's easy i think, try it, you'll get more satisfy.

i've searched a couple of stores here mostly in malls. all of them told me that they don't have that anymore. there are fake batteries but the sales lady told me battery life is only one day. as for the caisng, i'll have more luck with the battery. i have'nt gone to the big mall yet. most of them referred me there. hopefully they have what i need
