I have a T610 in the silver colour but i want to change it to blue or red and i know i can buy the housing and do it myself but i dont want to risk it and i dont want to void my warranty. Could i go to a SE Service centre and ask them to do it or is there any other ways i can do it without voiding the warranty?

Thanks in advance for the help.

So you think SE will change it for me and how do i find the nearest service point.
Ive seen them on ebay for about 5 to 15 english pounds. The US guy you can get them for about US$29.99 to $45 but they have a sale so there only $6.90 to bout $15.99...go to

http://www.cellphoneshop.net/cellphoneshop/faforsoert6t.html

and check it out there really cheap. But to change it you will need to buy a special screwdriver if changing it yourself but that voids youre warranty so find out it SE will change it.

Well sorry,

SONY Ericsson will NOT replace your faceplate for you.

I called and found out that they wouldn't switch out faceplates even if you have a Red/Blue faceplate or the Original Silver faceplate and the T6 Torx Screwdriver to go along with it. (They will send it off to a service center, funny, I thought they were that)

Sorry.

Ethan

When you say they will send it to the service centre do you mean the case?

Hi! I can say you, that it is a pretty hard work to put on a new housing! It is hard even 4 professionals with special tools! The best u can do is 2 take it to the se store! Contact: roobi@tippnet.co.yu!

Nah, once you've done it a while, it is VERY easy to do. I have absolutely no problem doing this.

I don't think that they would say that they would change it, but then again, they might, if it's an official SONY Ericsson faceplate. Don't know, you should just call and find out. And if they will, make sure you tell us the results!!!
