Thread: The Nokia 8800 Mobile Phones Sirocco Housing Swap

Hi,everyone

Wondering if anyone knew if the Nokia 8800 Sirocco housing fit a standard Nokia 8800? Housing is available for sale on CNN...


Thank you!!!

I do not think that because the measurements are not equal on both phones (at least according to GSM-sand). The Nokia 8800 Sirocco is 2.5 mm thicker than the Nokia 8800.

I spent a lot of time and money and I personally modify to suit the thinnest Nokia 8800. Why do you want to go somewhere else?

I am looking for validation, but I think there have been no changes in housing between the two phones so you can share out the covers.

Indeed, as housing for sirroco better than the original, but the original is a bit cheaper.

The Sirocco housing is thicker than the Nokia 8801, Nokia 8801 and thicker than the Nokia 8800. For what is a slim phone with a thick one for this exchange? I also think that the chassis is different in the Sirocco

Hey guys,

I realized the sirroco (sp?), but the housing is better, and I like it. Do you think the regular fit faceplate siroccos the Nokia 8800/Nokia 8801

The size of the two phones is different. I am sure that 99.99% straight conversion would fail.

It would not be sirroco of Nokia 8801, but would sirroco of Nokia 8800. I'm pretty sure, but do not quote me. At least that's the way it is grouped into cnn.cn

Hmmm, my phone is Nokia 8800, really important to trying to figure out if this is possible! Thanks for the help so far guys.

If you look closely at the images cnn.cn, the points of the house (where the latch springs, etc) seems to be quite close. The contact load is different, as the sirocco is a minor. Note that I do not know if it will work, as I have not tried!
