i have changed the housing on my phone but now i need to open it up again, however-the two screws in the back have been stripped and my driver will not get grip of them, basically i cant un-screw any of the 2 screws, can you suggest a way to get them out so they can be replaced? preferably without having to snap the new housing off? by the way-great tutorial, i followed these steps when doing my phone:D thanks!
Hi, yes please put the screws back in its just a demo video, if you would like a full tutorial then i will be happy to send you one, i hope this helps,
Hi, i have sent you a personal message to help with your other question, but this video was before my time at sw-box, i have since made a full step by step guide on how to do it, this video is just a demo, i will send you the step by step guides now i know what phone you have,
Followed it step by step got the full housing on, but when i knock on the phone the loading bar loads and stops at around 70% ? Do you know what the problem is ? anyone ?
Hi, if I was you i would first take it back apart and double check all of the connection plugs to the motherboard, maybe one is not fully connected, i hope this helps,
okay disregard my other comments, but I got everything on and I have two problems, 1: my keyboard doesn't function well I the right side I can barley push buttons, 2: my screen is not the right size and not sticky enough to go on
my screws that your supposed to remove in order to take off the screen are stripped or something and won't come out. I need help I've already taken off the screen cover thing but idk how to go on. and I have the right tools it just isn't working. I used a torex 6.

Hi do you think anyone could do this with ease and without breaking their phone?? Mine is brand new and I have bought a bright pink housing case but I don't want to break my BB!
Please reply A.S.A.P I don't know whether or not to risk it!!
@MrGamersworld1 Lol, thanks for noticing, but it's only a demo video, if you want a full step by step tutorial then i would be happy to send some to you, just let me know,
@Johnxee88 i haven't break my phone but i don't want to risk it and no i never revived the more detailed tutoriaaall i still haven't changed the housing though so...
@Johnxee88 yes it would be great if you could give me a more detailed tutorial also instead of screws i have a blue thing there instead will i still be able to change my housing :)
i didnt get that big blue tool thing, instead i got snet 2 screwdrivers and a green triangle thing, can you tell me what to do with this? please answer ASAP
Hi, the triangle pry toll can also lift up the front screen but it is a little harder to use, if you have difficulties using it, then you could try a blunt knife or your finger nail, also use a hair dryer to heat the screen up before you attempt to remove it, this will soften the glue and make it easier to remove, also be careful as the screens have two layers, do not separate them as the screen will become unusable,
@Johnxee88 Hi,I heard your helping people supposing your knowing alout about this obviously as you've done the video my phones decked and i was woundering can you get a new rubber but also my play button at the top has come of is there anyway of thinking this
i had a problem where the actual clear plastic of the old cover was stuck tight to the lcd screen. I would recommend heating it lightly first with a hairdrier :) worked for me anyway.
Hi, spot on, in the tutorial videos i did a few months ago on how to change the LCD and middle frame i used a heat gun, made it so much easier, anyway thanks for commenting,
I jus did it!! It all worked fine but the screen :( u didn't mention we had to put a sticky thingy jus so it doesn't happen to any one else ..nom my screen is a lil wrong :( but nice vid it showed me how to do everything else
Lol just seen this comment, glad you got it done, this was only a demo video, have made some really helpful step by step guides, if ever you need to change the middle frame or LCD let me know and i will send you the videos, thanks for your comments,
Hi I jus received a white housing for my bb 8530 nd I'm so scared something will mess up or something will happen to the phone are there any risks to this? Thnxx
Hi, i will send you a couple of step by step tutorials that may help, then you can make up your own mind, to be honest it's not that hard to do, and the risks are minimal,
hi, yes it is just a demo video, we give the phone to our QC team afterwards, so they can test our new products, if you would like a step by step guide then i would be more than happy to send it to you, anyway thanks for commenting and have a wonderful weekend,
Hi, with the 8520 it is a little tricky to take apart without cracking the housing, but can be done, but normally you can still reuse it, It normally cracks at the bottom, anyway i hope this helps,
Hi thanks for your comments, im glad it helped, but if you want a full step by step tutorial then i can PM you with one that is much easier to follow, just let me know,
Hi thanks for your comments, im glad it helped, but if you want a full step by step tutorial then i can PM you with one that is much easier to follow, just let me know,
Hi, you must start by snapping on the top first, put on the top and then pull it down that should clip it into place, then snap the rest of the housing on, i hope this helps,
Yes please do send me a tutorial if you need my email i will give you it in a pm :]!!! xxxx thanks so much a pinkk one is coming through the post that i bought and need a tutorial thanks !! :]
Hi, thanks for your great comments, and yes please put your screws back in, this is a demo video not a tutorial, i have a very good tutorial that i talk you through it step by step, please let me know if you want me to send it to you, if not then good luck,
I having loads of trouble getting one of the screws out, I've tried both screw drivers but it's really wedged in, is there anything else i can do to fix that?
Hi, it's a common problem with the blackberrys, now in most cases you have to put much more force down on the screw head and unscrew at the same time, also make sure the screw driver is in the screw head fully so it bites correctly as you may find your torx screw driver is just spinning, now if none of this helps, please come back to me,
I just finished doing mine, and my screen is raised higher and my track pad in the center is now lower so it is harder to get at.. just wondering if there is a way to fix that? Let me know :)
Hi, make sure you have'nt got anything stuck under the screen like some dirt, alse make sure the adhesive is sitting flat on the screen as when you took the screen off you may have moved some of it, that should allow you to sit the screen down better and put the trackpad back into place, i hope this helps,
OK. I got one today, but I have one screw out, but a problem with the other? (Its either in too tight, but the screwdriver isn't helping, either.) Any help? x
Hi, okay you can try the next size screw driver up, so if your using a T5 torx screw driver then try a T6, also you may need to push the screw driver harder down so push down and unscrew at the same time, they are in there pretty tight so it may help if you use more force, if this does not help, then please come back to me,
Hi, yes you can but don't leave the screen off for more than 30mins as the adhesive will dry up and it will not stick down, also if it's black and not white you may not like the look, but yes you can reuse it,
i have tried doing this and when i wanted to unscrew the screws on the back i accidently unscrew them too hard so now the screws wont have any grip and i dont know what to do please REPLY ASAP i beg you i am really upset and if you have any ideas of what i could do please tell me
Hi Kyle, when you install the housing you have to start at the top first, pull it over the top of the middle plate and then pull it down, then click the rest of the housing into place, i hope this helps,
Hi, its just a demo video, if you would like a full tutorial then i will be happy to send you one, also we did'nt put the screws back in because we use the phone for testing, our QC team check our housing kits out everyday, so we just don't put the screws back in, if you change your housing please put all the screws back in,

Hi, really sorry if your having difficulties with your phone, i can send you a better tutorial if that will help, or maybe you can let me know whats the problem so i can help you fix it?
my screen sticks up a bit and the buttons on the screen, like the ring,hang up and back button keep flapping up? idk what to do? i took it off, and there is sticky stuff under it, not glue? something else, idk how to take the sticky stuff off?
Hi, Blackberry uses like a double sided tape to stick down there screens, if you left the screen off for a while then sticky tape will dry up and will not stick down properly, so you have two choices, first you can remove all the old tape and then find a good double sided tape to stick it back down or you can buy a new screen, the screens are not expensive so don't worry, if you would like i can send you a link for a new screen, just let me know,
My mum just bought me this phone for my birthday , she saved up for 2 years and i got it today and i broke it open with the screw on the back and the screen cracked and i wont open up what should i do
Hi, that's not the best thing to do, i bet your mum is angry hehehe, anyway its not the end of the world, your screen is only plastic and costs very little, now I will send you a personal message to your youtube account with the help you need,
i change my housing to orange, everything is fine except screen- when i pulled the black one off, there was sticky stuff under it, can i still put my new screen over it, or do i remove the sticky stuff?
Hi, thats just a warranty stick, it lets Blackberry know that someone has opened your phone other than them, if you ever have to take it to a Blackberry repair centre, so don't worry to much and just take it off and then dismantle your phone, if you want to replace your housing, i hope this helps, and if you need anything else just ask,
Hi, yes please put your screws back in, that was just a demo video, if you would like a full tutorial then let me know and i will send it to you, also a blunt knife can work but be gentle, and take you time, i hope this helps, and if you need anything else just ask,
Hi, yes that is fine, if you want a better tutorial then just let me no and i will send you it, i made a step by step guide to help everyone, so just let me no,
er, you know the buttons to turn the vol up and down, well mine have ripped, so it is hard to turn it up and down, anywhere i get a new bit if you know what i mean..
Hi, we do sell the new buttons, but i think you mean the rubber covers but we don't sell replacements for them, go to sw-box.com and find Blackberry box at the top, then go to replacement parts, and find 8520, we sell most spares so just have a look, i hope this helps,
Hi, just wondered if you had to glue the new screen back on or if there was enough glue there already to just stick it straight back on. also the screen is two layers of plastic do you have to remove both of them before putting the new screen back on??
Hi yes there should be enough glue to just stick it back down, now you must not separate the two layers, keep them in one piece, i will send you a personal message with a better video,
Hi, yes you do need to refit all of the screws in your personal hand set, now we did not do this as it is only a demo video, and because we gave the phone to our QC department to test new products, i hope this helps, and thanks for your comments,
Hi, if only Blackberry used Philips screws that would be much easier, ok there's not many options left, 1 is to take it to a professional store or 2 you could ask someone you no is very good at engineering or just highly skilled with his hands to gently drill the heads off the screws, then when the housing is off use pliers to unscrew the remaining parts of the screws, unfortunately with the screw heads stripped there's not many options left,
Hi, in most cases its very hard to take them out the first time, try a T6 not a T5 screw driver as the heads get worn out very easily, also try to apply more downward force on the screw driver as some time the screw driver does not engage the head of the screw very well, push harder into the head as you unscrew it, if this does not work please come back to me and i will give you more suggestions,
Hi, actually its really easy, i would say you could do it in under 30mins, why not try to take it apart first, see how easy it is, then decide if you want to make the change, i hope this helps,
Hi, yes there is a screw under that blue sticker, the sticker is a warrantee, when you remove it, its gone, then if ever you take the phone to a BB shop they will no you opened it, that's all,
I am very disappointed with the product you sent me, light bleeds through the faceplate everywhere, the CALL/BB/RETURN/END CALL buttons look like utter shit when light goes through, the housing and the faceplate don't match in size and the housing doesn't hit the keys properly.
I could buy the same thing in Chinatown for 5 bucks, except I paid you guys 25.
@Sejox13 and trust me I installed it over and over and over again to make sure I didn't make a mistake. I expected better quality for something that was "OEM"
Oh and the trackpad is almost hidden by the lens screen, very uncomfortable.
Hi, really sorry to here that, if you can give me your email address and order number then i can pass it on to customer services, i have already spoke to them, they will contact you via email, so please send it to me,
we would like to solve this problem straight away, and again really sorry for your Inconvenience,
Hi, sorry for the late reply, you need to change the button thats all, the buttons are push into the middle frame, just pull it out using your fingers, i will send you a personal message to your channel with the link for the replacement buttons, and a video on how to do it,
i did this to my phone about 2 weeks ago and put both screws back in my phone now my signal is not working because the left hand side screw has been stripped and can not remove it what do i do ?? plz help
Hi ok sounds like a sim card problem, and yes put the screws in, its what hold the phone together,
now as for signal, thry your sim card in another phone and make sure it works, at least you will know if the sim is a problem or your phone is a problem, if that dont work come back to me, hehehe,
what tool is that you used to remove pat of the blackberry? thank you :)

Thanks
XxsydnixponiesxX 3 months ago
@XxsydnixponiesxX
Hi, yes you can but don't leave the screen off for more than 30mins as the adhesive will dry up and it will not stick down, also if it's black and not white you may not like the look, but yes you can reuse it,
i hope this helps,
kind regards,

Hi Kyle, when you install the housing you have to start at the top first, pull it over the top of the middle plate and then pull it down, then click the rest of the housing into place, i hope this helps,

my screen sticks up a bit and the buttons on the screen, like the ring,hang up and back button keep flapping up? idk what to do? i took it off, and there is sticky stuff under it, not glue? something else, idk how to take the sticky stuff off?
RandomizerVandilizer 4 months ago
@RandomizerVandilizer
Hi, Blackberry uses like a double sided tape to stick down there screens, if you left the screen off for a while then sticky tape will dry up and will not stick down properly, so you have two choices, first you can remove all the old tape and then find a good double sided tape to stick it back down or you can buy a new screen, the screens are not expensive so don't worry, if you would like i can send you a link for a new screen, just let me know,
kind regards,
Neill.

Hi, thats just a warranty stick, it lets Blackberry know that someone has opened your phone other than them, if you ever have to take it to a Blackberry repair centre, so don't worry to much and just take it off and then dismantle your phone, if you want to replace your housing, i hope this helps, and if you need anything else just ask,
kind regards,
Neill.

Hi, we do sell the new buttons, but i think you mean the rubber covers but we don't sell replacements for them, go to sw-box.com and find Blackberry box at the top, then go to replacement parts, and find 8520, we sell most spares so just have a look, i hope this helps,

Hi, just wondered if you had to glue the new screen back on or if there was enough glue there already to just stick it straight back on. also the screen is two layers of plastic do you have to remove both of them before putting the new screen back on??
Cheers, nice video!!

Hi yes there should be enough glue to just stick it back down, now you must not separate the two layers, keep them in one piece, i will send you a personal message with a better video,

well trying to get them out im completely stripped the screws now they wont come out at alll! what do i do i tried everything!
janndick12 6 months ago
@janndick12
Hi, if only Blackberry used Philips screws that would be much easier, ok there's not many options left, 1 is to take it to a professional store or 2 you could ask someone you no is very good at engineering or just highly skilled with his hands to gently drill the heads off the screws, then when the housing is off use pliers to unscrew the remaining parts of the screws, unfortunately with the screw heads stripped there's not many options left,
i hope this helps,
kind regards,
Neill.

i can not get the screews out !
janndick12 6 months ago
@janndick12
Hi, in most cases its very hard to take them out the first time, try a T6 not a T5 screw driver as the heads get worn out very easily, also try to apply more downward force on the screw driver as some time the screw driver does not engage the head of the screw very well, push harder into the head as you unscrew it, if this does not work please come back to me and i will give you more suggestions,
i hope this helps,
kind regards,

I am very disappointed with the product you sent me, light bleeds through the faceplate everywhere, the CALL/BB/RETURN/END CALL buttons look like utter shit when light goes through, the housing and the faceplate don't match in size and the housing doesn't hit the keys properly.
I could buy the same thing in Chinatown for 5 bucks, except I paid you guys 25.
Just disappointed.
