I noticed on my TH that there is a battery cover on the side, held together by a screw. __________________ Christian Palm Tungsten T>Sony UX40>Sony UX50>Sony TH55/E1>HTC Universal (O2 XDA Executive)

So I took out the circuit board from the clie with the dead screen and put it in the clie with the good camera. The battery is replaceable, so take out the one screw and unplug the connector.

I figure I'll have to do it at some point if something happens to my TH and I need to harvest parts from another one. With Sony's recent announcement I'm getting even more worried about something happening to mine.

Try www.cliebattery.com for TH55 batteries. Cost is $37.00. I got one for my UX50 from them. They include instructions on how to change them as well. Looks like a snap. You might even be able to pick one up on eBay for cheaper. But warned: they say they will send a screwdriver that allows you to change it. Not true.

They sent me four torx wrenches to change the battery on my UX50, and not one of them fit. In fact, the UX50 is not held together by torx screws, it is a pentagon shaped screwhead. I was able to use a small jewelers screwdriver to change it. Just wanted to give you a heads up on the screwdriver.

While waiting for clie_user reply, here is what I have on a TH55 broken screen (not mine, a kind 1rsc member sent his broken screen to me):

glasstop + digitizer = 1 mm
LCD = 3 mm
bracket = 1 mm
Total thickness = 5 mm

No part number showing on the screen parts, except on the main ribbon tape on the back, which says ACX532AKZ-2 415CN6T.
