Have you try looking for different papers in a craft store, I'd imagine they'd have a good selection of things like that. I think I'll start trying things too, I'd like to have a red keypad on my k700.

I like it - GREEN, instead of BLUE mates!

Cut up a strip of a blue polythene bag, the kind they give you in the supermarkets to carry the groceries in and put it in between the keypad and the LED's. Here's my blue keypad -



and my red one -



So sorry for the image quality, both taken with a T610, i dont have a digicam

Wouldnt it be far more simple to just order a different colour keypad ?

Where i live, there is a shop that sells K700i keypads in all sorts of colours. They arent official keypads, but worth buying if you want a change. Cheap too.

Im sure other shops and internet sites sell them too.

No, i would use a thin plastic lighting film, the stuff used to colour lights in theatre. You can get them very thin and just cut them out and put them in, make sure they arent too hard as well.

EDIT: you could possibly paint the underside of the keypad with some translucent paint, blue, which is durable? Like the stuff used to paint phone casings?

well why not just change the LED on the Key Pad..!
It costs just 250 rupees here in delhi, I remember getting my Nokia 3210 converted from Green LED's to Blue both on the LCD and the Keys..!

Changing the LED's or painting the keypad would make the color change permanent. You cannot change back easily if you paint it and changing the LED's costs money

By using a thin piece of transparent colored plastic, you can change the color as you wish without much effort. If you get bored with one color, you can easily change to another one...
