i don't think it's possible. but you might be able to get housings for 6610 that looks like a 7210 or 7250. try ebay.

BUMP

I want to put a nokia 7250 faceplate on my 6610 and want to know will it work right away, or if there is something extra I need to be able to do this? I really dont wanna waste my paypal money on buying a 7250 faceplate for the hell of it,only to not have it work/fit

i know for sure the 7250 WILL NOT work..
the 7210 might because it's really the same thing as the 6610 featurewise..

here is what i found out: i have not tryed the 7250 but i dont think it will fit, i have seen a lookalike/conversion for the 6610 to 7250 though. i have tryed the 7210 and it does fit but most of the bottom buttons will not work.

anybody try that link out that I posted? I would buy it if it was featured by yahoo shopping or you could pay by paypal...cuz I have no credit card at the moment but do have money in paypal

I cant wait till I get a CC so I can get this faceplate, cuz I'm getting bored of the faceplate setup for the 6610

i just ordered a faceplate from that link. Ill let you know if it works

so did the face plate work?

Posted by: rtlooker

so it works. its not oem so its not as tight fitting but all the buttons work. it sems that they directly coppied a 7250 faceplate and just moddified the underside of the buttons. some of them have 2 contacts one to work with the 7210 and one for the 6610. it looks good. it ships from hong kong rather quickly

there are some wierd asian symbols on some of the keys
