    My daughter dropped her red Q5 in the hot tub this week. Tried to fix it but it is in mobile heaven now. Got her another used one locally cheap and decided to make it unique. Santa will make her very happy.

    You did what I've been wanting to do to my Q5 for awhile. I wanted to put the red keyboard in the black body. None of the part suppliers have the red keyboard in stock currently. I'll keep waiting. I'd wait a bit longer before declaring that old Q5 as dead. Long story short my 9900 was at the bottom of a lake for 2 days and I dried it out for a couple months on a desk as a goof I put a new battery in it and it booted right up and it became my daily driver afain until I went to my Z10 full time.

    Thank you for the kind words. She will get four other different coloured cases too so she can pick her mood!

    Just finished loading the latest leaked OS, much better than the 1055 leak. Runs faster and Android apps load and run smoother.

    Looks good. I was thinking of doing the opposite actually, red body with black keys to match the black screen area.

    Could I bother you to remove the case and post a couple of "runway model shots showing the phone more in its naked glory?

    Damn, I just finished wrapping it up. I will try and do it on Christmas day if I have time as I am cooking Christmas dinner so will be a tad busy. See what I can do for you!

    The problem might be prying out of my daughter's hands lol lol )

    I have a BlackBerry employee connection and will be getting my next phone that way. When I do, I'm going to send it to Liquipel to waterproof the phone. Nothing worse than giving the phone a bath when it doesn't like it.

    Please share your experience once you get it done (ie how long did it take, any tests you were brave enough to perform). Thanks!
