Re: n900 screw replacement
I've read the tehkseven page, and I'm sorry to say but Nokia isn't using cheap screws. The problem is analogous to PEBKAC (problem exists between keyboard and chair), that is the person holding the screw driver is a butterfingers. :)
I've taken my n900 apart 4 times and all the screws are fine. It's simly a matter of cross threading and overtorquing. Either one of those things will snap those tiny screws. As to the replacements, there is a thread that lists sites that sell n900 parts. |
Re: n900 screw replacement
If you are in the US, try ACE Hardware. I work on a variety of equipment and sometimes need obscure screws and connectors. ACE normally caries most of what I need. I haven't taken my N900 apart, so I cannot guarantee they will carry these.
Edit : I looked at the screws used on the N900, and noticed that two of them are torx. I don't know if ACE would have torx, but I know they have allen screws. It also would somewhat depend on which ACE Hardware you go to. |
