I've just receive my black and orange housing for my silver w610. Any i want to do some mixing and matching but i can for the life of me figure out how i get the phone apart! Does anyone have a link to a guide for disassembling one?

I've got my t6 screw driver to hand but i can't get the back/top plastic cover off to remove the last two screws...

Doesn't it just unclip Burgaz?

have you got a couple of plastic splitting tool's?

or long finger nails? get them in between the plastic at the bottom and work them towards the top tres gingerly!

It must unclip i guess nanu... But even on the new housing i cant see the clips? The one on the black one has a little movement so i know it's gonna come off but i want to keep the black one, the orange one is going to be a spare. the problem is there are two screws under it i need to remove!!!

I've tried using my nails and a very fine pair of tweezers i have but it just doesn't want to budge...?

You sure there are 2 screws Burgaz as it looks to be the same as the K750/w810 and they just unscrew in the battery area and then unclip near the top!

Fetch it to ours tonight and I'll have a look for ya!

Coxy does the k550 have a seperate piece at the top on the back? I'm just wondering now?

I only want to change the face plate on mine because i want an entirely black w610... if i ever manage to get this little bit off and change the faceplate i'll post some pics up and descibe how i did it.

I've got my finger nail right under it on the spare back plate now but i can't get it off at all??? it just starts to bend the Chasis...?

Nanu... The holes are the same size top and bottom. They're only t6 screws.
