  1. How to Fix E-Paper Tearing, Device: шаг 1, изображение 1 из 2 How to Fix E-Paper Tearing, Device: шаг 1, изображение 2 из 2
    • This is a guide to fix the E-Paper tearing in Pebble 301BL devices.

    • The Pebble Kickstarter Edition doesn't have screws, it is glued and therefore not repairable without permanent damage.

  2. How to Fix E-Paper Tearing, Remove screws: шаг 2, изображение 1 из 1

    • Using a T5 Torx screwdriver, remove the 4 screws on the back.

    • When removing the back cover be very gentle! The rumble motor may be adhered to the cover so you must pry it away.

  3. How to Fix E-Paper Tearing, Video connector: шаг 3, изображение 1 из 1
    • Locate the video connector near the bottom, right next to the device that vibrates when you get a notification.

    • During normal use, this cable becomes loose and creates the tearing effect.

    • In the next step, you will be shown a way to apply pressure to this and keep it constantly connected.

  4. How to Fix E-Paper Tearing, Apply pressure to Video Connector: шаг 4, изображение 1 из 1
    • What worked for me is taking a little toilet tissue or paper towel and placing it over the video connector.

    • One way to test that this will help is by holding a finger on it and cycling through the menus.

    • Nothing inside the device will catch the paper on fire, so there is nothing to worry about.

  5. How to Fix E-Paper Tearing, Closing: шаг 5, изображение 1 из 1
    • Once you have confirmed that the paper will apply the necessary pressure, you can then put the screws back in.

    • If the case doesn't seem to close properly as it did before, do not keep on trying to tighten the screw down; you will strip the screw.

    • If the case doesn't close properly, you will need to open the device back up and remove a tiny bit of the paper until it does close, that way it will retain its water resistance.

    • Here is an example of the final result.

This guide sadly only works for the revised model. The kickstarter edition had no screws in the back and have to be pried open from the screen, making the repair next to impossible without badly damaging de case or/and the screen.

Would something like the iopener work for that? Have had just about every model bar the original ks edition so im not sure myself.

It is possible with heat and a ton of patients. Took a buddy of mine a whole afternoon to open it. Once he had the connector reseated, he actually used a of some sort to hold it in place instead so he wouldn't have to have the whole Pebble stuffed. Then he used the same putty/glue to help seal the watch shut. I'll see if he'll tell me what it was.

"To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order." .... so take it apart again and remove the tissue?

I see you are trying to be funny.

In case you were serious: no do not remove the tissue.
