Subject: Dismantling the XDA
From: JAA6921
Date: 21 Dec, 2002 16:49:55
I'd like to respray my T-Mobile phone (the one with the bad
paint job) - I've upgraded the RAM to 64mB so I don't want
to/can't swap it under warranty.
Can someone post basic instructions on taking this thing part -
especially removing all the stuff from the ftont cover plate??
I've had the back off and it looks OK to do but anyt hints and
tips and pics appreciated
Thanks in advance :o

First get rid off the 4 screws at the back, then remove the
antenna plastic cover. From the antenna hole, gently force open
the XDA apart. From the initial separation at the tip of the
antenna then you work your way down using your nails.
Inside, you need to open two more screws at the bottom & top(top
one is sealed with the warranty sticker), then you need to
unplug three flat cables. After that you'll be able to seperate
the middle part from the screen. Four more screws will let you
take off the screen from the casing :wink:

and how did it apply and is holding out??

Well, I opened up my XDA to remove the dust on the screen. I
can't help you with the paint job, sorry.

Interesting plan.
That Silver is a bit tacky. A nice gun metal black maybe?
My warranty runs out in September, nothing happening til then
for me!!
