The following will show you how to open the case.
I did it becasue one of the switches was bad.
Take off the battery cover and battery, remove the SIM and SD cards.
notice I did not remove the Sd, did not care.
Remove the flip cover that covers two screw plate holes.

Look to the 4 phillips head screws and remove. Now comes the delicate part.
there are 3 snap ledges on each side of the phone. Use a very small flat head screw driver to pop or pry the cover off the chrome edge. Be carefule not to scratch the chrome. It pops off just like any other wedged case.
If you want to seperate the LCD from the circuit board, there are 3 sticky pads holding them together.
Notice the LCD connector and the small connector for the touch panel.
Enjoy.

Interesting. Quite a bit different from my M88. And I thought all of the T32, Daxians, and M88 phones were almost the same!
M88 has the same 4 screws / pry up the chrome bezel dissassembly but the board layout is different and overall the desig different,.
Whats so strange, I offered to XDA-Developers a Daxian x999+ to disect, to see if they can gain access to the ROM for reading and writing. This was done a month ago, no one has come forward from XDA to say we are interested.
Does anybody know where is possible to buy cover plates for daxian x999?

I had 1 tiny fibre under my screen protector and was going to put on a new one.
So I had some fun!

I don't know if you can see it. But I have full strands of hair in there.
EDIT: Oh my, is there some way for me to scale it down for th forum?
you are too free my fren.... =.="
Doesn't look good...
Try an environment with little dust, eg the bathroom after a shower (humidity helps),
Use sellotape to remove fibres, specks of dust from screen or protector,
Make sure the protector is the right way round (yes, there is a top and bottom for the DHD which are subtly different, as I found to my cost - I think your protector is on upside down, looking at the bottom left corner).
I have never has success reapplying protectors (apart from "during" the first application), whatever the manufacturers say. Easier to buy a new one. A lot come in packs of 2 these days
Yeah I know all this.
When I got my mobile the girl at the shop offered to put on my screen protector and I thought why not! Bad choice... She put it on upsidedown...
So I put on my 2nd one. Then the 1 tiny fiber annoyed me so I took it off and put on ANOTHER one.
But this one was super cheap and didn't fit so I got annoyed and scrunched up the protector, chucked it in the bin but then had an idea to pull some hairs out and be stupid and take a picture.
Time to go buy a quality screen protector!
I thought the Ori was pretty cool and hard to pass up at $30 even if it doesn't fit the best.
I ordered the Ori and used it for a bit and could see why some of the negative comments about it not securely holding the touch pad were made. I then started thinking of possible solutions to this (I also mod computers and cars) and in about 5 minutes I had a solution. I've been testing it out for a while now and it works brilliantly.
I bought the following trim pieces:
Polyethylene Edge Trim w/ Adhesive
Neoprene Rubber Edge Trim
From this site: (did I mention I mod cars too?)
http://customcargrills.com/products.asp?cat=45
The fitment with the trim pieces is nearly perfect and the touchpad is in there solid. The trim pieces do not extend higher than the TP so the cover fits as if the trim pieces weren't even there. I just need to get time to cut/drill out holes for the head phone jack and speakers.
I had thought about posting up a teaser saying that I had a solution to give me time to get a short video put together but I know how I hate those threads so here are some of pics of the results: (using my CM9 Nexus S 4G)

I've held the case so the touch pad is pointing face down and shook it as hard as I could and the touchpad did not come out. I've already ordered another Ori for my 2nd touchpad. I'm loving how functional the ori is. I'm just wanting to get a netbook sleeve for it to cover it when traveling and such to protect stuff from the metal case.
I happened to find this little gem on Ebay when i was just browsing items for my Galaxy Note 8.
When you are not using it as a keyboard, it doubles as a protective case.
You place the Note 8 either in portrait or landscape-mode in the slot above the keys and it then looks sort of like a netbook. I personaly do not like the other types of case/keyboards out there as they often get bulky and sometimes they do not look to well with nothing to really hold the tablet in place except maybe a rubberband or just a sleeve where the tablet sits quite badly while you type.
As i said before, the keyboard works as a protective case when you are carrying the Note 8 with you. It snaps on to the front of the screen with a good fit and there are no buttons, irports, speakers or usbport blocked while the case is attached.
The keyboard has home and back buttons as well as eight other fuctions such as copy/paste and play/pause for media. It is charged through a microUSB-cable that is included in the package.
I dont use it as much as i thought i would, and sometimes i touch the screen with a finger while typing on the upper row of keys (the number-keys). other than that it works well, easy to connect via bluetooth.
I could also see myself paying a little more for a version with sturdier plastic as it does not feel really safe to place the tablet in portrait-mode, the plastic above the number-keys tend to buckle and i guess repetitive use could break the plastic completely.
I found it here on ebay
and here are some pictures and a video:

It looks like a clip of some type. Does the phone recognize the presence of a sim and microSD card?
It's able to use the SD card no problem.
The SIM on the other hand is being strange. It recognises that it's there, and can scan for networks. But when trying to connect to any network - including the one that the SIM belongs to - it says it can't connect to that network. This happens with two SIMs, one of which works in another Alcatel Idol 3.
From the shape of it, my first thought was that it could be a piece of grounding/shielding that is typically used between the assembly components. It's basically a thin flat metal spring usually made of a copper alloy, which ensures the electrical contact between parts for proper grounding and EM shielding. Based on your description of the SIM issues, it could also be a spring that applies pressure on the SIM card for a good contact with the pads. As I have never seen the guts of this phone, and being an electronics engineer, I got curious... As seen on this video (you can skip to 5:55-6:05), it must be some sort of a pressure spring from the SIM/SD compartment. That module is fully enclosed, and there is nothing there that looks like the extra piece of shielding that I first thought it was. So, this piece must be an integral inner part of the compartment that somehow broke off... Doesn't look like something you can easily fix, so I'd say it would be a professional repair job, or a replacement.
Looks like you may have to open the phone and look more closely to see if the part can be re-attached or re-inserted.
Hi guys
I am really having some trouble loving my S10e. The phone would be great - if it wasn't for the screen. The glass is simply glued on the front and thus sticks out by 0.75mm. The corners are not rounded but quite sharp. When I put the phone to my ear, the sharp end scratches my ear and it feels uncomfortable. On top of that, with the glass being exposed like that, it obviously lead to it cracking within the first 3 weeks (see

).
Is this the same for all S10e? I have searched the Internet for any reviews or complaints mentioning this issue, to no avail. I simply can't believe that this is normal (I have never seen a phone with the glass glued on like that).
Cheers,

This sounds like a faulty handset to me. You'll need to see if you can get it replaced under warranty.
Unfortunately as with all Android phones, this will mean sending your current handset off somewhere and waiting up to 2 weeks to have it inspected, repaired or replaced. You'll need to make sure you have a spare handset lying around. This is one of the things I hate about Androids compared to iPhones. Maybe try putting on a case to see if it helps?
If you had an iPhone, you'll have been able to book an appointment and have your iPhone replaced the same day.
Hey Wutang, thanks a lot for your reply! And all along I thought the glass being glued on like that was (a little silly but) normal for the S10e. I have contacted Samsung again, so I guess we will see.
