Greetings to friends from Spain
We are having a discussion on a Greek forum (http://www.myphone.gr/forum/showthread.php?t=354248), regarding the "option" offered from a Chinese seller (http://www.to2c.com/), concerning Jiayu G4 (latest 6589T model)
According to seller, G4 "thin" (http://www.to2c.com/jiayu-g4-mtk6589t-quad-core-1850mah-1-5ghz-4-7-inch-hd-ips-retina-screen-android-4-2-13mp-camera-1g-4g-smartphone.html) (with 1850mAh battery) model can accept easily the 3000mAh battery and a "large" back cover, making it easy to use both solutions (batteries) (with +$15)
Has anyone tried this solution (as presented in this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBg8xeNgfIA))?

Any comments, especially from personal experience?
Do you believe that the same ROM will be OK for both batteries (1850 and 3000mAh)?

and on main "subject":
G4 thin version, with 3000mAh battery and thick cover (red I to indicate "gap" in camera and LED flash hole)

Conclusion: Not the best solution (there is a gap of 2mm at the holes of camera and LED flash) but not so dramatic..., G4 is fully functional (and camera works)
