Yeah take off the little piece at the bottom which on my phone has the opperator on (it's below the keypad).
Next use a penknife or a small blade to lift the clear rubber from the phone but leaving it attached to the keys.
The keys are all attached to this bit of rubber and so lift the rubber and the keys follow.
Then clean dust or blow on the white pad or whatever needs to be done.

this doesn't help I am afraid...my C902 keyboard just came off when I was using it in normal conditions and now I don't know how to fix it whether to use a super glue and to stick the rubber keyboard to the white panel under neath or simply to use a double stick tape instead....but I am still not sure as it could come off again when I carry the phone in my pocket surely from the heath will happen the same....Any suggestions

you don't need to take it apart fully
step 1) where it says "cybershot" undeneath the digits
insert small blade, the cybershot panel will come away.

step 2) carefully lift off the clear rubber slip that is poking out from under the keys ..the keys will then lift off too.

depending on the problem, you can then gently lift off the white backing to reveal the contacts underneath,

final step: clean or replace ....job done
