Title
Kobo Glo HD Display Replacement
Introduction
This guide shows how to remove/replace the EPD panel (including frontlight) on a Kobo Glo HD.
''This guide applies to the Kobo Glo HD (model N437).''
''This guide does '''not''' apply to the Kobo Touch 2.0, and regular Kobo Glo and Touch models.''
'''You will need to perform the display replacement in a room with little to no dust, as dust and/or scratches on the back of the EPD panel can result in artefacting and/or dead pixels.'''
'''As the display assembly and EPD panel are held on using adhesive, removing the display assembly from the bezel may result in a cracked bezel if you’re not careful, and removing the EPD panel from the display assembly may damage it.'''
'''Please exercise caution to not bend and/or puncture the battery in the process.'''
