I have planned to mix a Black and a White, i will probably try several combinations. I have a Black Q10 and a friend have a White, but she don't like the PKB, so we exchange his Q10 with my White Z10 when she come back from holidays next week.

You guys in US or Canada could just use this thread to swap keyboards and keys among yourself. Like Red Q5 guy with a Black Q5 and vice versa. Am in India.... So my options would be to buy it online...

Red keyboard to black keyboard:

The seller sent a non-Arabic keyboard that would take me really long getting used to (and it looks so hideous D but I'm loving the change!

I like the 'black highlights' look, and if it were red on one side and black on the other, the asymmetry would make go crazy.

How did you manage to get your SD cover and volume buttons to be black - on the housing part it looks like these are a part of the battery cover as one piece no?

The buttons and the SD cover are separate parts, they might be glued to the housing but they aren't molded to it. So I just used the black buttons and black cover, with the red housing.

Thanks for responding to this old thread!

So if I have the black q5 I can use the buttons and tray slot from that with the red housing?

Did you find you needed to use a plastic pryer to open up the housing or did you use something else?

I have some plastic and metal prying tools. I don't remember now which I used, but I do remember it wasn't that hard getting the case opened and the phone apart.

I just ordered a replacement keyboard for my Q10 due to maple syrup infection so pulled out my dusty Q5. Used alongside my Z10 it does seem to be the perfect combination for work and play, both devises having great battery power.
