Default Dyed Trackball and i need a REPLACEMENT CURVE!

awhile ago i died my trackball using RIT dye.

is there ANY way of getting it off?, i need to return my phone and dont have a spare trackball and dont feeling like ordering one.

or can Telus send a replacement to my house and can i swap out the trackball? and send the broken phone back?

thanks for the help!

Sounds like you came up with your own solution. Swap out the trackball when the replacement comes to your house.
