Return to Disassembling Neo 1973.
NOTE: The Disassembling the Neo1973 page shows how to open up the GTA01Bv3 hardware revision. Future hardware revisions may require updates to this page. |
To remove the back cover, put your fingernail in the small recess on the top of the Neo, and pull gently.
NOTE: You now need to remove the two Torx screws (T6x40) |
To remove the top cover, after removing the two Torx screws, carefully squeeze the end of the supplied guitar pick between the cover and the case at the bottom of the device, and then slide the pick up to the top on one side (do not twist the pick). As you slide the pick along, the case retaining clips should come apart with a snapping sound. Repeat the procedure for the other side of the device. To unclip the last remaining large retaining clip at the top, slide the pick all the way to the top (this can be difficult) and then press it in at the centre. By careful application of force the clip will detach and the cover can then be removed.
Visible in this image, from the right, going clockwise.
In the middle is the touchscreen LCD, the touchscreen printed wire can be seen beginning at the bottom left of this, through the glass.
NOTE: You have to bend the plastic case a bit outwards until the headphone jack on the left side of the device becomes loose |
NOTE: Since the PCB now is loose on one side, you can carefully pull the USB socket and GPS antenna connector out of the right side of the case, and then flip the PCB upwards |
This shows:
On the other side of the PCB, going from bottom-right corner down-left.
On the case picture below, you can see the left and right speakers under the translucent plastic, and the vibrator motor in the middle.
You can actually see the two stereo speakers beneath the translucent cover, and next to it the small vibrator motor.
Next to the top of the picture is a hole near the speaker. The external GSM antenna connector is accessed through this hole.
