What you will need:

a Nokia mobile like mine (as you can see here, the background lightning still works but not the LCD)
a new LCD (you can get one on eBay for 10 to 20 Bucks.)
a T6 Torx-Screwdriver

is it possible to use an lcd from one phone on another phone?

knarx (author) in reply to vadoo7Aug 25, 2008. 1:11 PM

You mean, you wnt to use the lcd of an Nokia 6300 in another 6300? Yes, of course this is possible.

sorry for being so vague. what i meant to say is, could you use a nokia 6300 lcd on a completely different phone. i know that it wouldnt fit in the phone housing, but would the screen be functional?

knarx (author) in reply to vadoo7Aug 26, 2008. 5:18 AM

No problem. It is all about the connector/plug of the display. The male plug of the nokia lcd will probably fit into the most nokia phones female plugs. The best way would be to look after pictures of the mainboard of the desired "other phone". Maybe many lcds have the same plug.
