Does anybody know the best way to dismantle the T68i so I can clean the damn dust off the back of the screen?

Thumb nail in the joint at the top to remove the upper back cover where you will find the other 2 screws, you will need to use a paint brush & Maybe a hoover to clean all the crap out, remove & clean BOTH sides of the flexible keypad, dont loose the vibrator motor in the front cover at the bottom, & try not to touch the LCD display screen, its easily scratched.
Finally, if you havn't got the correct screwdriver DONT !!

Any problems or questions PM me.

Those pics are fine but as usual they show the removal of that top screw cover different to how the SE service centers are told, they are advised to unclip it at the TOP first, NOT in the battery compartment first like the pics show, when replacing click the top in LAST.

I took the faceplate off and removed all the dust (looks spanking new again now:-D) but after putting it back together the faceplate seems loose at the top! Can someone give me a tip here? ;-) thanks.

When putting the screws in its a good idea to push the phone together tightly, but dont be tempted to overtighten those screws. Also it may be that it was loose before but you didnt notice.
