Remove and Replace Keypad on Nokia 5310
Is the Keypad on your Nokia 5310 broken? If you got your phone wet and the Keypad no longer works then this is the repair guide your need to follow.
You can buy a replacement Nokia 5310 Keypad Replacement from eBay.
You will need a T6 torx driver to remove the screws. I also recommend a thin plastic guitar pick to help undo the covers. Check your local home depot for a torx driver set. They run about 5 dollars. Some of the LCD’s come with a driver but it was a t5 torx and was too small.
1. Turn off power to the phone
2. Remove battery cover and battery.
3. Remove the camera cover.
4. Insert a small tip object (preferably plastic) into the camera cover near the headset port.
5. Work the small tipped object around the seam of the cover to release the 2 retaining clips and remove the camera cover. See the pictures below for the locations.
6. Remove the 2 screws that are under the camera cover.
7. Release the 5 clips on the sides of the cover.
8. Flip the phone over and remove the top cover by lifting at the top and working towards the bottom to release the 2 hooks.
9. Remove the keypad by lifting from the bottom. There is a small hook on each side so be careful.
10. Install the number pad back on. Press firmly on each side to make sure the clips engage.
11. Install the top outer frame back on. Start from the bottom of the phone.
12. Make sure the latches on side are fully engaged. Failure to do this may cause side buttons on the phone not to function properly.
13. Install the the two screws back into the top backside of the phone.
14. Install the camera cover on and make sure is snaps into place.
15. Install the battery and put the battery cover back on.
16. Power up the 5310 by Nokia
17. Test out keypad for proper function.
That’s it. Enjoy your newly repaired Nokia 5310 in all of it’s repaired LCD glory.
Remember, you can get a New NOKIA 5310 Keypad from the store.

I broke my lcd glass cover and i bought a full housing on ebay. I changed the color to white. Mine was just like the one showed right here.
Now, after sometime… well, I noticed the buttons falling off. I tried to glue them. BIG MISTAKE. Not I broke the circuit that turns on the phone. Do you know where I could get the whole circuit?
Please help. Email me: DannyTheSkinhead@live.com

Thank you very much for these very clear directions. I changed the keyboard using a T6 torx tool and a plastic clip remover that I had from a previous Sony phone.
No broken plastic pieces and the new high definition keyboard has made the wife happy. Everybody is now happy.

By dismantling the phone to this extent, will I be able to access the memory card slot? A friend of mine has pushed the memory card in the slot, but not in the correct part, she somehow got it jammed down the side, missing the actual slot it should go into ( if you see what I mean ) .
I cant get it out with tweezers or a pin, so looks like Im gonna have to dismantle to get it out.
