Hi, love the instructions! One question though: What method/temperature are we talking for heating it to adhere it again? Mine fell off. I have a hair blow dryer, but what’s too hot for the electronics themselves?
I have the same question! My screen just popped off and a hairdryer didn't do a thing so I'm not sure what 'just heat the glue' means or if I need to replace the glue cause it's lost something.

Insert a prying tool between the bezel ring and the e-paper screen. Move the tool around the circumference of the ring until it separates from the e-paper screen.

What happens if you lose the springs?
I disassembled my watches yrs ago & they're put back somewhere. I'm sure I've lost the springs by now.
I'm thinking about buying a battery & replacing it in one of em. If the springs are necessary for the watch to function, I'm not gonna bother.
I kinda doubt that's the case tho.
Will it work without the springs?

Worked great. Was able to fully remove the battery from my wife’s original dead Pebble Round. I did lose one of the tiny springs cause man those things are tiny and springy…
Great guide! Very detailed and informative. Here is a replacement battery for the Pebble Time Round:
Pebble Time Round Battery SP301618AE
It comes with all the necessary tools and carries a 1 year replacement warranty!
Battery problem 😞
I have followed each of these steps but my watch will not take a charge. It boots to a screen with a plug pointing to lightning and won’t display anything else. Have I done something wrong when reconnecting the battery or is the battery not viable?
