"pried" not "pryed"
The reassembly requires gluing the back together. How do you get the glue?
Pro tip : There are three plastic tags on the rear cover that catch on the frame of the watch to hold the rear in place. If the rear cover keeps falling off after this fix then heat the tags with a hot air blower (hair dryer) until they soften. Then carefully bend the tags outwards slightly and allow to cool. The tags should now catch on the watch frame as intended. Good luck!
Great instruction. Happy to find it.
The guide seems to be missing one really important step! When opening the case, you will break the adhesive used to seal the watch in place. You will need new adhesive to reattach the case back to the watch. I tried using an adhesive tape for cell phones from Amazon and had trouble getting it to sit correctly. This step is critical and the case back needs to sit in just right, otherwise the new battery will not charge!
Correct. I have same problem
Great instruction. Important to know if this “old” watch can be used for Linux Asteroid OS:
Great guide! Thanks for the help, it took me literally 10 minutes and went without a hitch. Saved me a couple hundred bucks for a new watch!! Respect...
