Einleitung

This guide describes the replacement of the display for the Nook BNRV300 device. This device is also referred to as the “Nook Simple Touch” by Barnes & Nobles.

Removing the display is required for replacement of a broken, cracked, or damaged display.

If your screen is malfunctioning, check out this troubleshooting guide for screen malfunctions before you open up your device.

Warning: It is important to note that the display is a thin sheet of glass. When using tools to remove the screen, make sure to go slow and use caution. The screen can crack easily and break into small glass shards. Users may want to wear protection for hands and eyes.

    • Power off your Nook before working on your device. Hold the power button for about 5 seconds and select the “Power Off” option.

    • Turn the Nook over to find the power button along the back upper edge.

    • Wedge the spudger between the top of the power button and the upper edge of the device.

    • Push the tool down to pry the button up and off.

    You should pull up from the bottom of the button. It will hing up and pop off easier and less chance of breaking the button. There is a hing on the top side of the button to pivot down to the bottom where the button is. The clips are near the bottom of the button. You are more likely to break the pivot pins doing it from the top.

    • Wedge an opening tool between the back cover and the front plastic border at the top of the device (near the power button).

    • This will require some force.

    • Slide the opening tool along the edges of the device, prying up until you are able to use your fingers to remove the back cover.

    • The back cover snaps as it pops off. This is normal.

    There is no need to pry the cover off. Just slide the back cover down toward the USB port.

    This right here! It requires little to no force to do this. You are more likely to break the clips if you force it open.

    • Use tweezers to remove the brass-colored threaded fastener from the Nook plastic casing.

    There’s absolutely no reason to do this. This part of the device is never touched again for the rest of the guide.

    • Insert a nylon spudger between the plastic frame on the display and the metal casing on the display.

    • Gently pry the display away from the plastic frame. Place the display on a hard, flat surface to support it when prying it off the metal backing. The screen may crack anyway.

Was all good till I got here:

The display was glued to the metal backing. Needs something to heat up the adhesive in order to remove it.

Check the comments on each step. There are some adjustments to the process to properly and safely take this apart.
