Hi, I just have a problem with my 5 day old sw2, I overstimate the waterprooftness of the device and take it to the pool, everithing was fine but in home I can see a weird spot on the screen in the button side, was small next day the spot get bigger and the retroilumination was gone, I turn the watch off and let it dry for a few days, the spot still remains I turn it on and the retroilumination is back, but I want to clean the screen and clean all the board from water before it can get more damage. The big question, anyone have attempt to open the watch? cant find any guide, dont know if start for the screen with a heat gun or in the back with some sputgers, the watch is still turn off. Please if you have any suggest let me know thanks.
If not will post the first tear down guide hope with success, or it will be a destroy guide.
Ok I did it, heres how to do it:
First apply some head gun in the sides of the watch, be careful dont use too much heat.
Press from the back of the device gently, your will see that is one solid block inside a frame that hold the strap.
To separate the screen to see the board and battery, apply head gun DONT USE TOO MUCH HEAT, (if you do that the adhesive form the digitizer will melt and can leave a really ugly spot) after that with a plastic spudger work around the frame gently. Behind the screen is a flex cable be careful separate it for board to fully lift the screen from the boddy of the watch.
The battery connectors are soldered to the board and have very thin connectors be careful.
I cant remove the board mostly for the NFC chip that was glued in the botton of the device.
The screen is fused so YOU CANT replace just the digitizer or just the LCD.
I cant find any repacement part of the LCD, I thing I have a really nice strap with a circuit board If you have a not working watch and the screen is OK please PM I want to purchse a part, thanks
Hey I'd appreciate an update on this. I may have a watch with a good screen. Tell me if you open the watch is there a way to make it waterproof again? did you find any water inside?

Evening all.
So my beloved DHD needs the screen and digitizer replacing. Ive done the necessary reading/ searching and ive also located what appears to be a decent replacement.
Here is the thing.......
Has anyone successfully managed to do the replacement and keep the " Home, menu, back, search " buttons lighting up post screen replacement ? If so i would really appreciate some pointers on how you did this.
Thanks in advance
i replaced a digitizer / display on my dhd once and did the same on some Hd2 before.
On DHD its really difficult to replace the screen / digitizer. You most likely damage the plastic frame around the screen and indeed the arrangement of the Leds are no easy too, but not too hard to maintain. I wouldnt change the screen of anyone others DHD, just my own.
Yes, ive read that the replacement process is somewhat fiddly / tricky and no i would'nt do it for anyone else either. Im going for a pre assembeled screen / digitizer.
digitalizer is glued on lcd and lcd is glued on the middle metal plate, removing lcd from the plate requires heating it and it sure isn't fun, even after heating it it is still hard to remove without damaging the plastic frame, if i were you i would take it to a service shop with already bought part and paied them to change it, trust me it is not worth the nerves and the time
I'm a very handy guy and I accidentally tore a ribbon cable separating the pieces glued together. It's very hard, worth paying someone.

yes, but it was a pain, hold the pieces in place with double stick tape and be careful not to bend them!
Yup I successfully managed to replace a digitizer but I'm also a trained phone technician.
The most important thing is to be very careful. You should never have to use force in order to disassemble a phone.
How to get the cracked digitizer off? Simple, use your oven.
* Place the display-module (Chassis, digitizer,LCD) on a tray, make sure the plastic parts don't touch the bottom, so that it doesn't melt.
* Heat the oven to about 80-100 degrees celsius.
* The display should come off pretty easily.
* If you've done it properly, you can use the same adhesive that was one the chassis/frame if not you'll have to purchase some slow drying adhesive and carefully place it around the edges.
* Carefully move the light-guides on the bottom of the screen to the new digitizer. There's a small amount of adhesive on them so don't get any sweat on them. If they don't stick just use a very very, I'm talking pixel size amount of adhesive on it to get it to stick.
That's about it. Thread the flex-cable around the display and use a tweezer to connect it.
I know this is a hardware question, but I'm hoping someone might have an answer.
My son cracked the screen on his Galaxy S Blaze. I ordered a replacement screen assembly and found a video which I thought showed how to replace the screen, but it was for a different model. I have the cover off, the flex cables disconnected and the motherboard out, but I can't figure out how to remove the old screen from the front housing. Based on the other video, it should be a combination of heating the edge of the housing with a hair dryer until the adhesive softens, then prying it off. I've tried to do this with no luck, but it could be that I'm not prying hard enough - kinda scared to break it.
Does anyone know how to remove the screen - or better yet, know of a disassembly guide for the Galaxy S Blaze?
Thanks!
Heat, Heat and more heat...
Be careful with the heat as it can destroy amoled
a little off topic but...
One of the pins on my usb port got damaged. I was curious and took off the cover to have a look at what would be needed to replace it.... too much soldering that is above my skill level. Anyways, in the process of removing the cover, I lost functionality of my hardware buttons. I'm assuming I damaged the cables that attach them to the mobo. Didn't notice this until I put the cover back on and booted up. Does that seem right? Was I just being too harsh while taking it apart and ripped a ribbon or something of the like?
So I ended up cracking my screen and installed a replacement last night. Everything seemed fine but I noticed, after putting it back together, that any slight bit of pressure or shock to the top causes my N5 to shut off.
I took it apart again to make sure all of the ribbons were properly connected and to take a second look and everything appears fine. I didn't have this problem prior to the replacement and I was very gentle during the tear down and reassembly so I don't the the CPU or anything on it is damaged. Other than the top being hyper sensitive the phone works perfectly.
Any ideas on what the problem is or could be?
SOLVED(sorry, I don't know how to change the title)
I just wanted to fill in anyone curious or running into this problem in the future on how I resolved the issue.
So after some time I narrowed the problem down to the second back cover (the one with the camera lens and beneath the Nexus branded cover) making contact with the motherboard. More specifically, compressing the power management IC with its aluminum cover. You want to make sure that chip is laid flush which was a PITA, for me at least, because the headphone jack and earpiece speaker wants to push it up and out. What I did was put the jack in, lay the board on top, then gradually adjusted the jack with tweezers while gently pushing the motherboard down until the board was flush, then placing the earpiece speaker in.
I then placed the second back cover on and tightened the screws until I could feel them just slightly putting pressure on the cover. I can't stress how light this pressure is as it is the key in resolving this issue. To compare it to changing your oil filter on your car; when you can feel the filter make solid contact with the block and you then turn it about another half turn to seal it; it's like that but without that half turn.
Anyway, I hope this helps anyone else unfortunate enough to both break their screen and then have their phone randomly shut down when any pressure is applied after fixing it.

I bought mine off of eBay and it cost me $150. I could be wrong but it looked like the screen can't be separated from the frame. You might want to keep that in mind when purchasing because there are sellers that sell the screen without a frame. Tearing down the N5 was pretty simple. The hardest part for me was getting the back cover off as there are 4 (two on each side) large clips. If you end up bending the clips any, you can push them back to shape to keep the back from creaking like every Samsung I've ever owned. There's a nice guide on iFixit if you want to look at the process prior to ordering a new part.
I've read from others that you can send your phone into LG and they'll repair the screen for you. When you send it in they'll email a quote to you within a day. The price I keep seeing is $146 and I have no idea what the turn around on that is.
Alright, I did send sms on my bicycle which resulted in I did drop the phone on the ground. Luckily I had ad NILLKIN glass screen protector, which did save most of the phone . I have ordered a new Nillkin screen protector from Aliexpress. And I hope to patch up this phone so it looks good again. How would you have done ?
As you can see at the bottom in the pictures there is physically damage, you can you see the screen bleeding thru also the huwawei logo is damaged.
My idea is UNDER the NEW Nillkin screen protector I will try to mask these "holes" so the screen is not beelding thru anymore. What material should I use to patch up these holes.. also.. how to repar the logo ? can I print it out on my computer printer ? it might look **** on paper but UNDER the glass protector it might look a lot better.
All creative ideas are appreciated, I have high hopes the phone will look good again..
And hopefully my phone will surrive until the M8 release.
Just to let you know desipite the glass look damaged like this the phone is still fully functional!!
ouch i can feel with you.
How about some black film, black paper or everything else that is black and thin
Yes some black material for sure.. Black film would be perfect in guess.. Just wonder where to get it also some black glue at the sides also..
Maybe you can find a front replacement? - http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Front-O...-Parts-For-Huawei-Ascend-Mate-7-/201270995814

Nice man might be a very good alternative! But how easy is it to change it really?
Do I need a heat gun for that?
Don't know. I don't advise to do it yourself , just go with the phone to any service, I'm sure they know how to do the operation. Or maybe you have an huawei service near you.
Or...if you have the courage go for it ) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDiaQOzCvfE & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUl8dCuhBGw

I have done some smartphone repair myself, I changed the USB board on my old Galaxy Note 1.
I bought a smartphone repair kit with a few tools and very small screwdrivers. To change the glass is probably not much harder, but I need to know if I need a heat gun since I do not own any yet Hopefully it is not needed..but I would assume so...
I might also add the reason I bought a screen protector was that the original glass underneeth have a small crack too that goes accross the entire screen but it s quite invisible besides from certain angels.. so to change that screen to would actually be amazing..and it would make the secondary value when I sell this when M8 is released be a lot higher..
I think you need one. Look at the second yt movie at 22:34. Have an hair dryer?

Yes the Nillkin glass did its job but I think I was unlucky, that the bottom of the phone got under my bicycle tire.. it felt like it...
I recommend Nillkin, IT has very good Oleophobic coating, which makes the whole device a lot more enjoyable to use, but be careful whren you put it on non 100% straight surfaces it will slip onto the floor.
Alright it is more or less decided I will buy a new front cover with glass, I will make sure to get original parts with gorilla glass. Since the ebay link you linked to are chipped from china I guess I can just order straight from alixpress instead...
I have heard singapore post have quite fast shipping compared to china post.
just one question is hard to see in the videos.. but do I really need to disassembly every component all the circuits boards just to change the front screen ? do I need to open the case at all when using the heat gun/hair dryer ?
If as in the every component and circuit board has to be disassembled it is over my competence probably... unless I am super careful..
Mutch better if you want to purchase an original front to replace it. Don,t know if you really need to take all the components of for replacing the front screen, but you can make some research on it or you can ask on other forums, maybe are others with more experience.
yes I understand..must decide tomorrow then.. because of shipping times a fast decision need to be made otherwise I will have to wait too long..

Man I was repairing the whole Mate7 from the scratch!
If u shattered the screen ;
1.You will need new one which cost £40-£60 2.You will have to strip the WHOLE phone which is pain!
3.You will have to open the back cover,which is very hard process.You will need hard force to pop back cover from hinges.(first you need to remove small bottom cover which is plastic.)You will have to pry it underneath is adhesive which holds that small cover firmly.
4.Once you manage to remove back cover you have to disconnect all flex cables.There are 3 black screws and 4 chrome screws(smae like two at bottom) which holds motherboard.
There is small black cover which covers all connectors and it is tricky to remove it,because left side is kind of locked under chrome metalic cover plate! You need to pry it slightly to the right to flip it upwards.Be careful! One black screw holds that small black plate!
Once you remove the motherboard, another and very very hard part awaits you!
5.Removing the battery!
You will need heat gun to remove battery but even that heat gun might ot help you to remove BIG battery without damage !!
I tried to remove battery without damage but no luck.So I will advise you to buy new battery for mate7 mine cost me just £8 from china but I had to wait almost a month to deliver! Disaster shipping from china!
So if you apply lot of heat you might be lucky remove battery without damage.
But I was scared to apply too much heat on battery it could result in explosion or fire!!!
So I rather purchased one.
Once you remove battery, you can remove bottom part of phone which is usb board with speaker and plastics. It is up to you you dont need to remove it.
6.Removing the damaged screen from (middle) supporting frame!
This can be easy depends how screen is damaged. BUT
Here you have 2 options to replace screen.
A:You can buy screen without supporting frame which is harder and more work and heat gunning around the screen and prying screen from middle frame.Needs like 30-40 seconds of heating around the screen not in the middle.
B:You can buy s reen with middle frame which is very easy.Screen is already fited in frame so you dont need to mess with very slim adhesive srtips around the screen(which I done)
Then you will have to remove all parts from middle frame. Ear speaker ,loud speaker usb board and replace it to new housing.
Once you will set the new screen you can put all parts back together..
Replacing screen for this phone is PAIN!
It really needs skills and be careful because it is very easy to scratch back cover.

Hello and thanks, I appreciate your detailed instructions.
But I need to say one really IMPORTANT THING
IT IS NOT THE SCREEN THAT I NEED TO CHANGE THE ACTUAL SCREEN AND LCD IS WORKING PERFECTLEY WHAT I NEED TO CHANGE IS THE Front Screen Outer Glass Lens. i HAVE HIGH HOPES THAT IF I ONLY CHANGE THIS I DO NOT NEED TO DO ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS YOU DO SINCE I AM ONLY CHANGING THE GLASS NOT THE ACTUAL SCREEN, IT IS A VERY IMPORTANT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SCREEN AND OUTER GLASS AND FRONT. I HOPE YOU WILL READ MY POST AND GIVE ME AN UPDATE BEFORE I PUSH THE BUY BUTTON THANKS!
This is the part I was going to order it is just the glass no lcd screen.

Sorry but you are like 10 year old child..
So u wanna change your ''front Screen Outer Glass Lens'' ??? (that is damn long name for glass )
You have so much hopes ? OK .. go on .. I leave you to it ..
I wish you very best of luck ..
''''IT IS A VERY IMPORTANT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SCREEN AND OUTER GLASS AND FRONT''
DDDDDD this was so funny :laugh: :good:
Fingers :fingers-crossed:
You was talking about changing the lcd not only the front Glass. I just wanted to make sure you need to do all the instructions to change only front glass. The lcd is working..

And I will give you one last advice ; that my detailed post above I explained you how difficult it is .. YOU want to change glass only ??
And what you think, you can just do it without stripping phone apart ?? Are you magician ? You would have to open phone anyway !
And replacing glass on your screen, do you have any idea how you gonna do it? Removing glass from LCD is x10 TIMES hard that my instructions above man !
So you basically adding even more, harder work to hard work ..!
Do you even have
1.LCD separator heat machine ??
2.Cutting line wire ??
3.Cleaning alcohol chemicals ??
4.Optical clear adhesive glue ??
5.Ultraviolet curing lamp ??
Come oon man ...
I told you I wish you very best of luck..
This guy want to do the exact same thing - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8HNBtl9MwI
You have the all process here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDiaQOzCvfE & https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUl8dCuhBGw
Take a look and decide if you want do it yourself and risk to mess things up or go with the phone and the replacing part to a service and let someone who did this before.
Hi guys
Sadly I have a cracked display...so there are no spare parts available and the shops in Germany would like to have something around 500€.
I changed in the past some Sony-Displays and thought about doing myself. I found on aliexpress some U12+Displays.
Sadly I didnt found a single "manual" or how to, to do this right - anyone can help?
Best regards
Maybe these vids from JerryRigEverything can help you out.
Good luck!

I just replaced mine yesterday and it was more difficult than any other one I've done in the past. Anyway I never found one single video on YouTube that showed the screen removal and pretty much had to play it by ear. There are a few videos that show the disassembly of the U12+ and each stops before removing the screen. My advice is to remove everything from the frame, I managed to piece together enough from the videos to know there are 15 screws to remove, one video said 14 but there's one more that's hidden until you've gotten under the motherboard holding the front facing cameras. Knowing I wanted to keep it simple I didn't remove all of the antenna wires, there's one at the bottom that's under the speaker cover that I left attached so I only disconnected it from the motherboard. Then the other I only disconnected near the vibrator, leaving it connected at the motherboard, so each piece had one wire that stayed connected. Meanwhile you'll have to undo every other plug on the device and with a little persuasion everything fell out. (Don't attempt to remove the button/pressure sensing strips along the sides!) Once you are down to the frame, and for me the ear piece speaker, I used a heat gun to soften the bond between the glass and the frame. It doesn't loosen up very easily, they are really bonded together. I got most of it and then began to chip away at the broken glass. You'll want a good heat gun for this part. I had to set mine to 300F to really get it to loosen up and then work mm by mm around the edge getting all of the glass and glue out of the track. This probably took me a half hour or more. I used E6000 glue but only because I would have had to order B7000 or any other recommended glue. E6000 is a good glue but just because many of the other videos I watched used B7000 I would have liked to use it too.
To install the new screen I used a syringe filled with my glue to follow the small glue track around the edge of the frame. Don't worry about squeeze out because this glue is very forgiving and wipes away easily with IPA Alcohol and a rag. I followed the old glue placement, adding a little extra near the bottom corners and a dab around the ear piece speaker holes. Then it's just reversing the process to assemble the electronics. Now here is another word of warning, the plugs are so small and some are not easy to align but be sure they snap into place and are flat when installed. I made the mistake of not getting the display plug flat and had to do a partial disassembly to correct the issue.
I didn't glue the back on but think I might today just to try and achieve the waterproof level the phone shipped with. You may have to glue yours but I had previously broken the back and already replaced it and the replacement came with a double sided adhesive strip that was still pretty sticky. If I remember correctly the original back was glued on and probably wouldn't have stuck if I had tried to just replace the back as I did.
One other note. After being disassembled and pulling the battery my finger print scanner didn't want to work. In fact it didn't even show up in the menu when I went looking for it but restarting the phone again caused it to show up. My advantage with the double sided adhesive was I was able to test everything and use the phone for a full day before committing to gluing the back on. Now that I know everything is working, the phone is charging and it all seems good I can glue the back on.
Best of luck
