Me and my girlfriend both have a Nokia 6300 but she dropped her’s into the sink and after drying it out, the screen doesn’t work. I wanted to try swapping the screen with mine to make sure it was the LCD that had blown before I head to Ebay for a replacement. First job: get the front screen off. Here’s how you do it

1. Remove the back cover (if you’ve never done it before, push it down with your fingers)
2. Remove the two screws at the bottom of the phone. They screws are apparently T6 screws but if you don’t have a T6 screwdriver you can use a 2mm diameter flat screwdriver
3. Take the screwdriver (or knife) and insert it between the silver case and the black plastic and then prise it apart.

From there you can mess around with the insides as much as you like!
