Hi guys.
I have a problem and I'm asking for help..
I recently dropped my T68i,it wasn't some great height but the IR port cover fell off and broke down.One of two little tick from the middle of the cover

broke down.I dont think it can be stick back because it's very thin.It's not some big problem but the phone it's now open for dust and IR port can be

scratched.
So what should I do?Try to glue the cover directly to the phone housing,to go to service center and ask for replacement..?
Can you please give me some advices? I dont want to rush and mess things up,wanna do it right...
Here are some pics,to make things brighter...

Go to a service center, it shouldn't cost much to replace that part.

The labor charge would probably be more expansive than cost of the ir cover itself. \\:)

I've also got the same problem...dropped my T68i twice on one day and both times it made hard contact, once on concrete and the second time down an escalator

I was thinking about replacing the cover by myself with a new one,dont want to glue anything.Just dont know where to find one! Can it be bought in SE service center or I have to visit some other service shop and ask for a cover from some 'dead' phone,which is not in use anymore? This message was posted from a T68i

Did that this morning.That's just temporary,to prevent dust to get in.Will try to find cover replacement as soon as I get to Zagreb,there are no service centers in my place.. This message was posted from a T68i
