Hi sorry for asking this as I'm sure that it has been discussed before, but how exactly do you remove the phones cover / housing and with what tools? where can these tools be purchased? Is it difficult to take off the housing?
Cheers

Youll need a small HEX wrench if Im not wrong. And thats it!
Start with removing the antenna cober on th top of the backside. when you remove the battery youll se how to remove the cover.
And then just scews left

Eric;
I just did it this past weekend and it was very easy, actually easier than I thought. All you need is an eye glass screwdriver or watch screwdriver large enough to grab onto the prongs and then just unscrew the four screws; two under the antenna and two under the battery
the cover then comes off quickly. I did it to clear the dust under the glass |

Is'nt the phone sealed? So that your warranty is voided if you open it? Or is it just to open it and remove the dust, or what? [:]

no seal at all; noone can tell that it has been opened; try at your own risk though. ITs really not difficult |

Thank you for the info Harleydog , I really appreciate it! My T68 looks like new without the dust under the display-protection-glass! Thanx! ( Next time I will use some real tools though.)

I have been pondering what kind of material would be good to just put in there to stop more dust from coming in. What do people think about gluing a small strip of black foam to the underside of the front cover to prevent more dust getting in?
