I'm not sure if this should be posted in the 710 forum or here, but I want to end up with an I747 so that's why I picked here.
I have a perfect, absolute mint condition 710T from Boost. It's not even 6 months old. But I don't like being stuck on boost, and I liked being able to swap sim cards/phones when I was on GSM. I have the option to obtain, cheaply, a rather roughed up I747 from AT&T, which is unlocked, but also has a broken lcd.
My question is, since I would have two complete phones, is it possible to put the I747 guts into the 710T shell? I know that the motherboards are slightly different. The biggest difference I've found from looking at pictures is that on the I747, on the lower part of the skinny side section there's a (roughly) 3/4 inch long metal piece, where on the 710T there's some little square things instead. Other than that they appear to be the same except for the obvious lack of a sim card slot on the 710T. The antenna location and connections look to be the same also.
If this type of swap is possible, would I only need to change the motherboard and the midframe (the part with the SD and sim holes)? Or would there be other parts I'd have to change also?
I searched both the 710 and I747 forums but didn't find anyone doing the same, except one guy who only had the motherboard of an I747, and not the whole phone, so of course he wasn't able to do it. Any insight is greatly appreciated.
