    • Look for cracks, and board bents, especially near to the mounting holes (near the haptic feedback unit). My wifes luxe first stopped measuring, later started shutting down itself. When opened it I've found the battery very expanded, which have pressed the board outside and have cracked it, possibly tearing traces in the internal layers.

What chip or module would the firmware be on? I am trying to modify my Fitbit's operating system for more apps, and possibly Google Wear OS.

Do you have any tips on getting the screen off? I tried using my blow dryer for five minutes but it’s still in the casing

@calvinonofrei I believe it is Ambiq Apollo4 - an ARM Cortex M4 chip with 16 MB of RAM, which I am afraid woult not be a fit for any Wear OS
@rhinounease0o You need very thin metal plate to pry it off, because the gap between the screen and the frame is very tiny. Only hot air wasn't enough im my case. I have soaked it with IPA several times within an hour. this somehow softened the glue allowing me to slide the screen to one of the long sides and get the prying tool on the other long side. Otherwise the tool (0.15mm thick) was no go on either side of the screen. After you get it between the glass and the frame you can use a hair drier to heat it up and gently lift it.

After teardown and replacement of the battery, how do you reseal it?
