They just cover the Orange Logo Fine :P

Apply with a little water so you can slide the sticker to exactly the right place, then wait for it it dry before peeling application tape off, works perfect!

If you can ever get hold of these cases (and you don't mind losing your warranty) then its a 10 minute Job to swap cases.

Success!

After a few arguments with myself whether or not to potentially damage my new OSF, I decided to take the plunge and try and remove the logo!

As you can see it came out rather well with no side effects :P

I used some isopropanol alcohol first of all to try and rub off the ink but it didn't seem to have much effect, so then i took a medium sized knife (sharp!) and used this to try and scrape the logo off.

I DID NOT use any force with the knife for fear or scratching the surface, but just used the weight of the knife to have the desired effect :D)

I can't believe all this effort everyone is putting into removing a logo that you never see anyway.

Not that I like orange, I dislike their customer service and pricing scheme.

Glad to see im not the only one who was annoyed by the logo. I know you hardly ever see it, but when i did it annoyed me! Have been doing this with every phone I have owned since the spv c500! its amazing how by flashing a generic rom and removing the hardware branding how much a phones value used to increase, I sold my mda vairo as a HTC wizard got nearly £100 more from cex.co.uk at the time, not that i'm planning on selling my san francisco, best phone i have had for a long while :P

oh dear.... guys... just pick up a penny coin from your wallet and easily do the job within a minute! I did it this way and my SF battery cover looks as good as new... not even a tiny scratch whatsoever... (mine is white... doubt if it would work on grey one though since it is rubber material).

Has anyone tried removing the rubber coating from a grey handset? Mine looks terrible as it's all peeling away around the corners & edges (all except the bloody Orange logo!).

i`ve done it with nail olish remover now.. works perfect, no scratches, just my hand hurts after 15 minutes of rubbing :D

Which SF do you have - the grey one or the white one :P ?

Yeah, my post was kind of ironic. But I'm happier with the scar than with the orange tattoo.

Can hardly call 10 minutes of rubbing my finger in a circle with some sugar underneath 'effort'. Personally I hate 'branded' stuff, especially for an overpriced Mobile phone company, so removing the logo was a joy! :P

I rubbed my logo off in less than a minute using a scouring sponge

No, white. Sorry, should have stated this in the first place

Just buy a mini android sticker to cover the orange logo.

Sorted (Show your colours :D)

Would never have the balls to take a knife to my Blade :(

Plus its the black one so wouldn't work!

I went for small Android Sticker and Black Resin Case :D
