This is the Nokia 3310 LCD with plated contacts.

   
Best way to start disassembly is to cut the remove the frame,  starting from two left hand side corners. First remove the tiny bit of plastic above the metal, then gently push the metal frame upwards. Avoid using too much force, as this may result in a broken LCD.
   
 
The glass is removed from the frame.

   
 
The LCD backside shows the plated LCD contacts, which can be soldered upon directly.

   
Prepare a bit of 8-wire flatcable and presolder the LCD contacts, and the flatcable wires.
 
   
   
  Solder both end and you're ready!
