Introduction

If the frame is warped, it is important to replace it to make sure the new screen fits properly and does not suffer damage from uneven pressure.

Before disassembling your mobile, discharge the battery below 25%. The battery could catch fire and / or explode if accidentally punctured, but the chances are much lower if it is discharged.

Note: This guide tells you how to replace the screen only, leaving the original chassis and motherboard in place. However, some replacement screens come pre-installed in a new chassis, which requires a very different procedure. Make sure you have the correct part before you start following this guide.

You will need replacement adhesive to re-glue the components when reassembling the device.

What you need

Step 1

              Display
  • With a hair dryer, heat the glass well so that the adhesive glue can detach easily.
  • Use thin tools all over the profile and insert them between the plastic frame and the glass.
  • Do not insert the opening tools you are using between the aluminum and the plastic frame.

Questo Samsung ha davvero un sistema di sostituzione dello schermo molto pratico.
