    • Turn the device upside-down and insert a pry tool between the two case pieces.

    • On the left side just below the buttons there's a delicate ribbon cable that's part of the screen assembly and may be severed by a pry tool. (This is shown in the third photo, it's where the tool is pointing.) Regardless of where you start, stay clear of this area!

    • If you are having trouble getting an initial gap to pry from, run the flat edge of the pry tool along the front-to-back plate seam until it slips into a gap. You can also flex the device slightly and work a tool into one of the lower corners, which have a lot of empty space behind them rather than fragile components.

    • Looking at the back face, another safe place to start is on the right side just below the page turn buttons. (Note the green arrow in the board photo, which is rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise.) The tool goes between the lower button and the hinge cover slot. If there isn't a slot there, you're on the wrong side!

    • Do not attempt to pry directly on the page turning buttons.

    • Work the pry tool around the edge of the case, releasing the 18 clips. Don't insert your tool too far, or you may damage components near the edges of the device. The clips are all in the outer edge of the backplate anyway. Note that the clip above the power switch is bigger and stronger than the rest.

    • Pull the rear cover off. The remaining two clips near the center of the back are surprisingly strong.

    • When reinstalling the back cover, slide the bottom edge into place first, and then press up the sides and along the top until all the clips snap into place.

    • Unscrew the two silver 4 mm Phillips screws securing the battery connector.

    • Set the screws aside in a safe place -- there are exposed components and it's easy for them to short-circuit something.

    • Lift battery out of housing starting at the end that was secured by the screws.

    • Watch out for the odd-shaped silver washers beneath the battery connector (see second photo); they are necessary for proper mating of the electrical contacts when the screws are re-tightened.

    • When reinstalling the battery, make sure the washers are in place. Holding the battery at an angle (see first photo), insert the two retaining tabs on the bottom of the battery into the slots in the case. Then rotate the battery into place and screw down the connector.

    • Remove the damaged screen from the housing.

    • Press gently from the outside to the inside. Be careful not to break the frame.

    • The preexisting adhesive should be sufficient for attaching the new screen.

    • There are at least two different versions of the screen for this model, TED060SCE(LF)T1-0I and ED060SC7(LF)C1. Check the sticker on the back of your display and make sure your replacement display matches.

I did it!

But it worked only the third time I opened the kindle, the first and second time the screen stayed frozen with some horizontal lines, the third time I only unlatched and latched all the ribbon cables and...voila! it worked!

Thank you, Im VERY happy!

The screw diagrams for grey and silver sets were very helpful!

note: There 2 or 3 odd cup-shaped washers that differ between versions. 2 go under the batter screws to keep height/pressure constant, on may be under a screw for the modem/RF module.

Please note before ordering: there are at least two different models of screen for the Kindle 3 keyboard.

ED060SCE(LF)T1-0I and ED060SC7(LF)C1 (you can find the model no. on a sticker on the back of the screen). My UK 3G model had the ...C1 built in. Be sure to order the correct one. The ...T1 screen will work as a replacement for the ...C1 model, but badly (text is fine, images and screensavers are not display correctly).
