My phone fell and the side plastic broke up. Therefore, where can I find an entire body for it and how do I dismount it. Alternatively, is there a software that allows the saving of all the parameters in my mobile in order to transfer it to another one new.

Thank you very much

u should be able to get a new cover from your local service centre (they'll probably have to order it in), there was a guide on someone's site a while back on how to change it, but i can't find it now

Great! Thanks again as I've just bought the entire casing and found a Website explaining how to dismount the phone here:

It's a Torx T6 that you are supposed to use to open your phone with.

Yeah LOL just got it. I should have looked closer to my own link!

Anyhow, I changed the entire cover (back & front) with no trouble at all. I also changed the LCD screen that was damaged but unfortunately the one I've got is less nice to look at. A bit on the yellowish side and too bright. I had to crank down the contrast settings in the service menu to eliminate the blurr. It shows fine but the one I had before had a cooler rendering. Oh well...
