Tutorial for opening a Nokia 6125 for cleaning..

This is a simple tutorial for opening a Nokia 6125 phone for cleaning the screen, which sometimes can be an annoying problem. Don't blame me if you fuck your phone up, though. If you're unsure about what you're doing, get the phone cleaned by a professional repairman.

First off. The tools, which are quite simple. All you need is something sharp, a torx headed screw and something to clean it with. Compressed air works great. But you can use some kind of a cloth, too. Just make sure it wont scratch your screen.

Take the "lid" off the center with something sharp. It is glued to the phone, but it'll come off quite gently.
Take your screwdriver and use it on those torx... (Can't remember the size, but it's quite small.)
Like this...

Close it, and take something sharp (but not too sharp...) to open those keepers from inside. It might take some forcing. It's the top cover which will come off, so don't force the "main" side... The sides might take some bruise from your tools. To avoid them you can use just nails, but it aint easy getting it off then.

Try different ways, if you're having some problems with it.

There we go...
Vóila! Almost there. (You can clean the second screen now. Don't forget to clean the inside of the cover, too)
Lift carefully the actual screen... Leave the "cover" as it is, against your phone keyboard.
There it rests nicely. Now clean it, but dont bend nor break it.
Put your screen back to its original place, and close the screen...
It might take some forcing again. Watch that you don't press your mainscreen against your keyboard, or it might leave nasty marks on it. You can put some soft cloth between those to be sure.
Screw your torx back on, put the lid back and you're done!


Thank you.
