I have stupidly gotten some superglue under the #1 key of my w800. Dam i am stupid. The wee orange plastic button finally came off after 10 months and i tried to glue it back on cause i couldn't be bothered taking back to the o2 shop to try and get them to fix it up. Oh how i wish now i could have been bothered. I missed up but luckily the button still responds but doesnt move!! Its really annoying, alos got superglue over the face of the phone a little, not much but i can still spot it and its really annoying me.

I have taken so much care with my phone since i got it until now why oh why was i being so stupid. I should have know superglue is the worst thing to use it always get EVERYWHERE.

Does anyone know if it is easy to take the w800 appart, i want now to see if i can get inside it and scrap the superglue off. Might be a bad idea but i hope it can be fixed up. I am disappointed by stupidity.

I'd just buy a new keypad and use the guide on top to open it
