Nokia 6500 - screen change DIY??
Options
How easy is it for a sem tech noice to change one's own damaged Nokia screen?
my screen is damaged internally not cracked. Three want a min of £29.99 to repair it, a local repairer quoted £35. But seem the screens on ebay going for around £10 with tools and instructions are avail on google.
Is this a very delicate job, or okay for someone who has never opened a phone before?

Done! Easy only taken 10mins....saved over £15 from getting a phone shop to do it!
