Glofish M700 - How To Open

Written by Administrator
Wednesday, 15 April 2009 03:42

Before you begin

Read the legal guidelines on this website. Place your Glofish on a clean flat and soft surface, such as a rubber mat or a piece of soft cloth and get the required opening tools

Step 1

Step 2

Step 3

Slide the tool all along the bottom to the edge of the iPod.

Step 4

You can try to slide the tool all the way around the edge. If that fails, reinsert the tool of the right side.

Step 5

Slide the tool up toward the middle. Repeat the last steps until you created a gap large enough to insert the flathead screwdriver.

Step 6

Repeat the last steps and twist the safe open tool. Carefully pry down using the small flathead. You will need to apply some force here and be patient until the backplate will come loose.

Step 7

Repeat step 6 at different sections of the side. If the gap is large enough you may be able to use the flathead alone. The flathead will speed up the process but also damage the backplate more.

Step 8

Slide the plastic tool around the upper right edge thereby creating a gap at the top.

Step 9

Use the flathead here as well to extend the gap and make the internal metal clips of the backplate release from the frontplate.

Step 10

Slide the soft opening tool around the upper left corner thereby creating a gap on the left side.

Step 11

Apply the same method here. The backplate will increasingly feel loose and move around in the process, but the metal clips on the inside may still hold on to the frontplate.

Palm Tx - Headphone Jack Repair

Written by Administrator
Wednesday, 04 November 2009 13:38

Before you begin

Read this website's Legal Guidelines and make sure you understand the risks of this repair. Place your Blackberry Storm on a clean flat and soft surface, such as a rubber mat or a piece of soft cloth and get the required opening tools

Turn your Palm Tx on its back.

Step 2

Remove the battery door and the battery.

Step 3

Remove all 4 screws that are holding in the backplate with the torque screw.

Step 4

Use the green tool to wedge right below the backplate to pop it off. Do the top of the backplate first since the dock connector slightly holds the backplate in on the bottom. You might hear a subtle snapping sound as the hooks that hold in the backplate are dislodged.

Step 5

The top of the backplate can now be lifted of the fron casing. Ease the bottom part of the Palm of by rocking the backplate gently back and forth while applying pressure downward toward the bottom to remove the entire backplate.

Step 6

Here is another angle of using the greentool to remove the backplate by wedging it right below the backplates edge.

Step 7

Gently remove the backplate from the main casing. As you can see there is a cable that is conneting the battery to the mainboard this needs to be soldered off the board or you can pull the battery from the backplate so it can stay connected.

Either way is fine it is up to you.

Step 8

Here is another angle of the backplate turn over exposing the mainboard. Again you can see the battery soldering points onto the mainboard.

Step 9

This is the headphone jack for the Palm. Watch you want to do is make sure that all six soldering points are securely connected to the mainboard. If not that is what is causing the issue and solder the pins back on to the board securely so that it is firmly in place. After that the headphone jack should work fine.

Now just reverse re-assemble it.
