    jeez. the silver polish has worked very slightly, usually phones with 'unremovable' covers can be done with a t6 screw, like the sort you tighten some glasses with, i used to have one and dismantled an ericsson once with no problems. dont get the aftermarket covers though, they dont fit properly, if u can use ebay/paypal buy the real thing direct from japan/hong kong, they're cheap as well, ive got some decent phone stuff there in the past.

    all phone covers are "removable" to some degree. ask your local mobile retailer if they can acquire one for you. I'm talking about official covers direct from manufacturers, not the crappy third party chinese efforts you see kicking around ebay...

    ive bought a few genuine phone things from chinese sellers on ebay, not aftermarket and theyve been great and dirt cheapas they get them direct from the factory.

  • Sand in my pocket had scratched the screen on my V220 to the point that I could not read it. I buffed it out using a cotton buffing pad and buffing compound stick on my electric drill.
    It was a case of s**t or bust....It worked perfectly and cost nothing!
