Nokia N900 Disassembly
N900 Disassembly Blog Post: www.tehkseven.net You Will Need: - a Philips PH0 Screwdriver - a T6 Screwdriver - PATIENCE! - caution Paul and I (Jon) have created a video demonstrating how to disassemble the Nokia N900. These steps were purely improvised, as we could not find any other disassembly videos, images, or instructions. We hope you guys find this video useful for DIY repairs or housing replacement.

@JAWADarkLord
Same here, I clicked the button twice that changes the video size, now the video is rolling again, strange
I dont get this, some of your videos stop near the middle :f This and N900 Dust Test dont work all the way.
dudes… why can’t I watch this video? everytime ive tried to watch it it stops playing at the time 1:49.. and yes it has buffered/loaded far beyond that time… I’ve tried to watch it on my PC and my iPod touch but it won’t play on any of them.. do u have any idea what’s the problem? I would really appreciate if you could figure it out so I could watch the whole video
how do you know this stuff
Would it be easy to get new screws if one of them gets stripped? thanks.
@viniciusmro
It worked.. uruuhh
@jaeezzy1
I`ve got the same problem as you.. I`ve read somewhere that inserting a piece of paper between the metal and the screen would solve this issue.. I`m still trying this..
hi tehkseven, I was just wondering if you can help me to get rid of the creaking sound that I get while pressing the top center of the screen. In the maemo forum I read that tightening the screws will help but they are already too tight that I could’t even unscrew them and it certainly sounds like something is not properly attached. Would you be able to tell why I get such creaking sound while pressing that part of the screen? thanks jay
hi, john
can you help me with the hardware repair video of Nokia E71 not charging ?
thanks
@maartenrules He does this so we don’t have to.
After all he gets paid by youtube or well has a job anyways … soo he has enough money to buy a new one.
I shall say Respect to him.
“try not to worry but it sure scared us!”
I almost died :’D
why would u do this to your phone?XD
man i have 1 question i had a problem with a nokia n900, the backlight werent working good i had to make some “presion on screen to see light” but when i stop to press it the light turns off again, how can i fix that?
hat jemand lust zu schreibn oder pic tausch mir ist soo langweilig
These type of video’s are very helpful. It is a vid like this that help me repair my N96 a while back.
cool vid!! But i dont see the point in dismantling it completely like you have without any reason.
The base looks like its nothing lol, wierd watching the inside of a fone that ive ordered.
i like older men! Dont ask meh why i am telling you this
no, there’s surely better way… It’s just Nokia’s style that they first release a chunky advance feature packed handset in the beginning, then they just try to make it smaller and smaller(n95 to n86 for example). The fact is they are very capable of cramming it, it’s just that they don’t do it because it’s part of their marketing and strategy. See how the iphone is nicely engineered, very good use of space. I’m not a fan of iphone, In fact i love n900 but it needs to use space wisely.
You guys forgot to remove the other antenna (”plastic piece” you weren’t sure what it was). It is on the other end of the phone, but stays in its cavity even without screws.
@impulsive2urge
Never fails to amaze me how people just think you can keep cramming stuff together without any negative effects.
For starters, there is heat build up and interference. There is a LOT of careful planning where each chip and related board traces go, to avoid crosstalk, otherwise it just wouldn’t work.
So please engage your brain before assuming because you see gaps they could just have crammed more junk in there. It will be empty for a good reason.
Well of course I can’t do without a keyboard. I tried that with the 5800 and a bluetooth keyboard, but that didn’t go so well. I just know they gonna do a keyboardless one so I just thinking how small it’ll be with the same UI. Oh and again don’t compare Apples with Oranges.
This phone without keyboard would be just another iPhone-like. The keyboard is the key reason I’ll personnaly buy it.
lots of wasted space.
whats the point?
