I have managed to dismantle all of the internal component, but I couldn't dismantle the side cover yet... Anybody can elaborate more on how to pry open the little lumps holding the side cover? I'm prying it as of now... But it just won't come up.
Edit: Never mind... I've managed to tear of the side covers... With dire consequences though... I broke the thin part near the jogdial thingie. But oh well... Sanding complete, now off to paint booth.

Can anybody point me to where I can find a headphone jack for the P910a in the US. I wanted to replace the existing one on the cell 'cause it had gone bad. Or how do I solder the points on the motherboard so that the phone does not look for headphones.
Many thanks to knight4led for detailed instructions on disassembling the phone.

As I said in the first post, I used acrylic model paint. I put on several layers followed by several layers of acrylic clearcoat to give it some shine and some durability. Just don't lay it on too thick or the phone won't go back together.
To paint the flip, you'll have to pull it apart, which is possible, but I have not done it personally. You will still have gray buttons though.

I put my phone up for sale (well swap) for a w800i yesterday, i managed to drop it running for the train today & now its scuffed like hell! ordered a new casing so i'll let you lot know how it goes!
You dont need a T6 do you? just that a lot of shops that sell casings on eBay are giving T6s away with the casing saying you need it?!
or....does anyone wanna swap my P910i & newly ordered casing for a W800i?!

thank you for this extremely useful guide, i was considering on replacing the casing since mines has a slightly dented corner and a couple minor scratches here and there.
i m still considering the risks on opening it up.. but if i do decide to replace the housing, i will do it soon, anymore tips on taking apart the phone and the keypad for coating?
p.s. one more thing, on ebay, they include T6, T7, and cross screwdrivers along with the black housing covers.. but it seems you didnt need all that, you seemed to just use a generic brookstone screwset, any advice?
