Introduzione
The colored metal casing.
-
Carefully insert an iPod opening tool in the seam between the metal casing and white plastic top.
-
Lift the top bezel off the iPod. It's glued on using a mild adhesive, so some force may be required.

I tried using a heat gun to soften the glue, but it ended up melting the white plastic part.
-
Remove the following two screws:
-
One #00 Phillips screw with a large head near the headphone jack.
-
One #00 Phillips screw with a smaller head near the side of the iPod. This screw strips easily, so be sure to press down firmly on the screwdriver.
-
-
Use a metal spudger to carefully pry the headphone jack out of the casing. DO NOT remove the headphone jack from the iPod entirely, as it is connected via a fragile ribbon connector to the click wheel.
-
Slide the headphone jack out until the white plastic housing is no longer held in place by the metal casing.
-
Remove the newly-revealed Phillips #00 screw from beneath the headphone jack. Be careful, this screw is easily stripped.
The screw on this step also stripped when I was following this tutorial, despite being very careful and taking the time for everything. This really happens _REALLY_ easily!
I too reassembled the iPod without this particular screw. So far I've noticed no side-effects from this.
Ultimately I was able to complete the whole guide and repair the Nano succesfully! :-D
i have also stripped this screw in this step. can i change the display without removing this screw? any help is greatly appreciated
-
Lift the bottom bezel bracket out of the iPod.
-
Remove the two Phillips #00 screws from the top of the iPod.
Had to pick out resin with dentist tool to enable Philips driver to engage screw heads.
Need to be very slow and careful with sharp end of dentist pick.
-
Use a spudger to disconnect the headphone jack cable from the logic board. You need to gently pry the connector toward (or up, if you like, the connector is like LEGO® building blocks) the front of the iPod until it comes loose from the logic board.
-
Special hint for the reassembly: Push the connector inside until it is over the corresponding connector of the logic board. Then insert a thin tool over the connector and push it down onto the logic boards connector.
-
Use a spudger to push the logic board through the iPod out of the casing. The click wheel and headphone jack should remain in the iPod.
The headphone ribbon and the click wheel is on the top side of the cover, so be sure to apply force toward the down side to avoid scratching the click wheel's PCB.
-
When removing the logic board, place the tip of the spudger into the hole where you removed the screw and gently push it out. The crevice will keep it in place and decrease the chance of you damaging your board.
-
Completely remove the display and logic board from the metal casing.
-
When reassembling, ensure that the battery is well seated. If the fit is too tight, the edge of the display will score the inside of the screen window.
When sliding back the logic board, watch out not to put too much stress on the side with the screen and the window, cause it may lead to annoying stripes on your window
reassembly : use a small dry paint brush to remove dust and crime from display screen to avoid spots .
