Fri, 21 Jul 2023 23:20:40 -0700

I just had the lower right button cover crack and fall off. Does anybody know of any ways to get a replacement rubber panel?

Has anybody taken the watch apart to see if it's even possible to do this sort of replacement?

Pebble Time: Battery Replacement for Time Steel? 250mAh

Tue, 01 May 2018 09:44:12 -0700

Hello all,

I am trying to find a source of these batteries:

https://www.ewisetech.com/Library/Batter...

I have used generic 602025 batteries, like this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3-7V-250...

But I quickly end up with only 4 days of battery life and random reboots when trying to respond to a text, or when launching apps. Has anyone found a good source for replacement batteries for the Pebble time steel?

Thanks,

Pebble Steel: My Pebble steel isn't vibrating when I receive a new notification

Tue, 16 Mar 2021 13:10:41 -0700

My Pebble Steel watch is not vibrating when I receive a new notification. I can still see when I get a notification because it pops up on the screen but I don't feel the vibration. I have made sure that the settings on my phone and watch are both set to vibrate for a new notification. What else can I do?

pebble time round: reattaching fallen glass from pebble watch

Mon, 10 Jul 2017 07:25:48 -0700

Hi,

My partner is the proud owner of Pebble time round.

Lately the front glass of the watch came off.

For some reason, neither watchmakers nor phone-shops around were able to help.

Can someone recommend an adhesive to put it together?

Thanks

Pebble: Ability to re-waterproof pebble after opening?

Mon, 20 Oct 2014 15:03:48 -0700

Hi there,

I noticed on your guide you say it's impossible to open the pebble without compromising its waterproofing. Would you say it'd be that much more difficult to re-waterproof the device?

Pebble Time Steel: Can I use the Ifixit Pebble Time guides to repair the Time Steel?

Wed, 30 Aug 2023 01:53:39 -0700

I’ve noticed that their are several repair guides for fixing the Pebble Time but virtually none for the Time Steel. From what I’ve seen the internals look nearly identical. Are the internals similar enough that I can just use the Time guides when repairing a Time Steel?

Pebble: What screwdriver do I use? (OG Pebble w/4 screws on back)

Tue, 20 Dec 2016 00:43:48 -0700

I heard it was a Torx. Upon further research I discovered there are different types of Torx. The screws securing the back of the Pebble Classic down do in fact have the pin in the middle of each screw from what I can tell. Can someone point me in the direction of the cheapest possible online source to purchase the correct screwdriver to open up my Pebble?

I RMA-ed it and the replacement is on its way - but they're letting me keep my current one so I'm going to try to fix the screen tearing using the method I saw on YouTube with the shim adding pressure to help ensure a solid connection for the display cable. And if something goes wrong beyond fixing, then I'll just go to a facility to recycle it like Pebble Support told me to. It's the defective one anyway.

Model 301BL, the later version that actually can be opened without completely wrecking it.

I just have to tell myself that it won't be long before I have an Apple Watch Sport. I'm willing to sacrifice battery life for something that will actually work.

Pebble Time Steel: Seperate Display from cover

Thu, 30 Apr 2020 06:56:22 -0700

The Water resistant glue of my pebble time Steel became old… the frontcover started to seperate from the body. And there was some humidity between display and Front Glass. I could easily pull the Front from the Backcover and Detach the displays ribbon cable. But now i wanted to remove the humidity between Cover and Display but i can not Figure Out how to detach the Display from the Glass Front. It also seems to be Glued? Any advice? Heatgun?

Pebble Steel: No backlight after battery replacement .

Sun, 23 Dec 2018 11:14:33 -0700

Hello all,

I was able to replace battery on my beloved Pebble Steel but back light and charging diode is not working anymore - I soldered battery using Ifixit workaround but battery is soldered not using stripe (sorry for terminology - I am not expert) but is soldered on wires. Did I heat it too much and destroy some circuit related to back light or how to proceed at this moment.

I know it is not usual to fix things like that while this watch are almost not available and I am not willing replace them by some different smartwatch with touchy display …There is at least one user who experienced and fixed this issue - Andrew Morton , Sindre Bjerke @sindre
