leoxle, that's called pirating software. We don't allow that on this site. There is a freeware version you can find here:

Install the Colour App from here: http://www.geekandproud.net/blackber...rl.jadSettings for the app can be found under Settings or Options

[crkbryaddict]

there is a link for a program to customize the color of the trackball for free. it is called ColorPearl. it was easier and not permanent like marker

[John Clark]

The link you are referring to is in the post right above yours. it only works on the 8100, though. It doesn't work on any other device.

[francodeman]

Sooo...since the Color Pearl only works with the 8100, and I own the 8130 which only has one white LED, does anyone know it after all this time, the marker on scotch tape holding up from the "fry" or baking effect?

To those who might still be interested in seeing other trackball disassembly pictures, not the ones once available in this thread, please check Trackball Cleaning and Disassembly w/ PICTURES @ PinStack.com.

It's great to still find people willing to share their expertise

[ongoy80]

[HeyComon]

Hey i cant see the pictures the just show red x on them

[John Clark]

Thread closed. No pics anymore. There is another sticky thread with pictures for disassembling the trackball.
