scratch on the phone side

Assuming you mean some light scratches on the screen, pop into a local jewellers. THey have a polishing compund that has (a) slight abrasive qualitirs and (b) leaving behind a clear residue in the scratch that is clear. I've done a couple of S3c screens with this, and while it's scary the first time, it can have good (but not wonderful) results.

BTW it's used mainly for watch faces that are scratched.

There same kinda compound is available in most record shops under the name CD repair fluid and does the same thing.

ic but Im just pertaining to the silver coating... wonder if I could just repaint it (with a nail polish hehehe or any kind of paint) and so to hide the scratch... or... Ill just bring it to Nokia Centre and replace the phone interface cover... hmmm wonder how much is the front casing of 9210...

Tbh I've not tried covering the scratches on mine, as they are a tad deep in places, personally it's a tool and if it wasn't meant to be scratched then it'd have a tougher cover. I'd like another cover, hell I'd like to replace mine with a nice gloss black one but I am yet to find anywhere selling replacement fascias for the 9210. Followed a link to some once in Germany, but there was no way to buy them.
