    It belongs to a friend, I have no idea how she obtained it. She said she lost the battery so I am trying to get one for her. Putting the phone to use will be better than letting it go to waste.

    At the end of the day, it really comes down to the software on it. I've seen fake blackberries with more "Features" than the real deal, but they never have the real software on it. THAT is where things get bad, since you suddenly don't have BBM or things like that.

    So likewise if the fake iPhone runs iOS 5 without hassles, and you have acess to the App Store and iTunes on your PC recognize your phone correctly, then the rest is least of your worries imho...

    Irony is, alot of people buying these fake phones never realise they are not even using the real software, until one day they try to install a app

    The battery was already out when it was given to me. The back cover is being screwed on anf off via the screws located at the bottom near the mouth pieces.

    I don't have any too. The phone does not have screwed as we speak bu I should imagine that since it is a fake, the screws maybe somewhat of a star shaped or something like that so they can be removed using a star shaped screw driver or something similar.

    There is absolutely no doubt that it is a fake.

    It amazes me how easy some of us can spot a fake from a mile and how some can be so easily fooled.
