Figure 2.1: In the figure below you will see 10 Small Phillips screws circled in RED. Use your phillips screw driver to remove the screws. After you have removed them place them in a safe spot, Maybe a bowl or bag so you are not to lose theses screws.
Figures 3.1 and 3.2: Use your pry tool to lift up the back housing from the phone. There is two back covers. The top one can be removed by starting at the audio jack. For the bottom start right at the middle of the bottom of the phone. This will allow yourself to remove the back covers without breaking a cable.
Once your back covers are removed you will then need to remove the Five (5) flex cables from their pop connections. You can see these highlighted in yellow below. When removing them from their connection, take your safe pry tool to pop them up. If you find that its hard or not coming up. Do not force it to come up. Take a sec and see why. Maybe there is tape in the way. A phone is a puzzle find the right spots for each part.
You will have two antenna cables shown in red. Use your pry tool to release theses from their socket. Using your pry tool you will notice that the antenna cables are in place tightly. This is to allow for great connection to allow you to get data or wifi. When you are removing them go from the edge of the cable and not under the cable connection.
Figure 5.1 Will show you how to lift the top motherboard out. Take your pry tool and go from top. Wedge your tool in the top as you pry back the motherboard. You will notice how the motherboard can slide out when you start to pry it. Be mindful of the flex cables around the board. You do not want to rip or pull one of theses cables out.
Figure 5.2 You will now be removing the dock port flex assembly. Take your time as not to rip the cables. Take your pry tool and slide it from the bottom around the flex. You will see that once it starts to come up, it goes easy from there.
Figure 5.3 Now you can remove the battery with ease. There is a small amount of adhesive holding the battery in place. Use your pry tool and wedge it in the bottom of the battery. As you pry back you will feel the battery give way so it can be removed.
Figure 5.4 Take your pry tool as release the back facing camera with your pry tool. Do not rip the flex cable out. You will need to take your time as the adhesive is strong here.
[*]
You have now taken apart your Google Nexus 5 and are able to install your replacement screen or other parts as necessary.
Notice: This repair guide is for learning purposes only and you should perform this repair at your own risk.
I'd suggest iFixit for high quality photos of the teardown process. http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nexus+5+Teardown/19016 :good:
I tried taking my back cover off to fix the loose power button, but i could not get one of the clips to come undone. It's the one right below the volume rocker and no matter what i tried i couldn't get it. I actually dented the plastic side and cover trying to pry it off. Nobody else seems to have this problem, is there some special trick to get that one undone? All the other clips came out no problem. It's really bugging me

Sorry you guys haven some problems. What are you using to pry the back cover off?
I tried using multiple safe open pry tools and the guitar pick thing. Nothing worked, it just won't release. Even tried pushing inwards on the clip with no luck

I have used 3 different case opening tools. Small, medium-ish, and a Pick type one. All to no avail.
The leaked service manual indicates to remove the SIM tray, and use that as your starting point, moving UP and around the corner, then over the top, around the other corner, down the opposing side, around the bottom corners, and finishing at back at the SIM tray opening.

Kwongger, Can you upload a picture of the tool(s) you are using to open the back cover?
Wideasleep , You can do this. Just be mindful as you can damage the sim tray.

That advice applies regardless. There is a reason LG suggests this method in its service manual ( I assume a 'soft point' of attachment) and I reported it in hopes of helping those having difficulty in the volume button area. LG says approach from the top.

So, I may have missed it but where might one purchase new glass for the nexus 5? Mine shattered after being in my pocket while I was playing air hockey... No blunt force whatsoever but I'm guessing all the movement and the pressure of my jeans against the glass flexed it enough to shatter...?? So disappointing. Google said that they would replace the phone however if, upon detailed inspection of my broken screen, they determine it was customer induced, they will charge me in full for another phone. They also told me that they do not repair these phones, so just paying for the repair fees is not an option, at least only through Google. I haven't tried contacting LG yet. Suggestions??
I need a new back cover. How do I go about ordering one?

Figure 1
Now, using a safe open pry tool, carefully remove the battery. The battery will held in place with a large amount of adhesive.
Pry away the top camera cover which is held in place with adhesive. Under the cover there will be two (2) hidden Torx T5 screws.
Figure 2
Using your safe open pry tool, pry carefully around the edges of the back bezel and remove the back housing from the rest of the device.
There will now be thirteen (13) Torx T5 screws holding the mid chassis in place. Remove these screws and carefully pry off the mid frame chassis from the rest of the device
Figure 3
You will now have access to the motherboard. There will be two (2) "pop" connectors that will need to be disconnected as shown in Figure 4.
Figure 4
The motherboard can now be set aside and we are left with the front slide portion and top of the keyboard.
We will now need to remove the two (2) Torx T5 screws holding the slide and keyboard in place.
Figure 5
Carefully remove the keyboard from the device, being careful of the flex cable that is fed through the slide..
On the back of the screen assembly there will be ten (10) Torx T5 screws that will need to be removed.
Figure 6
The front panel can now be removed from the LCD assembly.
The touch screen digitizer is part of the front panel. To remove the touch screen you will need to heat the front of the panel using a hair dryer/heat gun to warm the adhesive holding the digitizer in place.
Use medium heat for about 45-60 seconds using quick movements around the outside edges.
Now, use a safe open pry tool to pry between the touch screen and the bezel to release the adhesive holding the touch screen in place. Reheat if necessary.
Carefully feed the flex cable through the housing are fully remove the touch screen from the device.
For LCD repair, carefully release the top "pop" connector above the LCD screen. You can now lift the LCD screen from the housing and remove it fully from the device.
Now you will be able to replace any parts on your Motorola Droid 4. Simply replace the damaged parts with the new ones and reverse the order to put your phone back together again.
Thanks for an outstandingly clear and concise guide.
Newb observation: The re-assembly instructions are very brief. For instance, there's no mention of how the use the adhesive strips in the "Tools Required" list. The presence of those strips in the tools lists implies to me that you can't reuse the adhesive you heat-softened to separate the touchscreen, but I may be wrong. Maybe the adhesive strips are just for re-fastening the battery, and the adhesive in the touchscreens is supposed to be reused.

AAAAnd, on follow-up, I followed the link in your signature and read the full Droid 4 take-apart page, which DOES describe how to use the adhesive strips. In re-attaching the touch screen layer to the bezel. In a YouTube video. Excellent.
The truth is out there!

Haha.. glad you found the guide useful and also found our other video for attaching the screen.
wish there was an AMOLED screen to replace this qHD screen
Yeah, this screen does kinda suck.
But it gets the job done, and is easy to see outside. So I can't complain to much.

Its much harder if the adhesive is not warmed first. We would recommend heating.
I'm at figure #5 and the screws are def not Torx T5. Look like T4
"We will now need to remove the two (2) Torx T5 screws holding the slide and keyboard in place."
This is incorrect.
It's definitely a T4.
Glad to see this, just wanted to be sure the Droid 4 front assembly (LCD and digitizer) is not one piece like the RAZR and MAXX.
Are there any AMOLED screens that will work with the Droid 4? I'd be happy to try to swap one out if I could find some parts or used phones.
Not currently. But as soon as we get some you will be able to find them here - Motorola Droid 4 replacement parts
Got ahold of one of these Droid 4 phones, but the "USB" female plug had been pretty much forced and destroyed, and I jacked up the battery. Anyone know where I can find a motherboard for this XT894 and a battery as inexpensively as possible? I got the phone for free, would like to see it work if not too terribly expensive.
repairsuniverse, what's the deal with the battery? I've seen a few ebay auctions where the battery was basically "destroyed" by removing it. Can you provide details on how to either repair or replace this?
Thanks!

I would really like to know if you can get the usb plug replaced, and if so, how did you replace it? Also, how did you "jack up the battery'? I was under the impression that besides being unremovable, they couldn't be swapped out for a different battery.
I just finished replacing the digitizer on my Droid 4. When I got it completely reassembled, I powered it on and had a severe issue with touch input. The center of the screen responds at random to touch. I disassembled the phone three times to verify if I missed any seatings, but I failed to find any. Could I have possibly received a bad digitizer?
Any response towards this query would be greatly appreciated. I just bought this phone through swappa a month ago (contract is not up until February) and accidentally dropped the phone face down on concrete, shattering the entire screen.
Shattered or not, did the previous screen work? If it did, it must be the new digitizer. I haven't replaced one on the D4 yet but I have on the Milestone. I can remember at least 3 DOA digitizers. Very annoying

Hi,
We've seen this happen a few times when the correct adhesive strips aren't applied between the LCD screen and the digitizer. If the adhesive is too thin then the touch screen can be too close to the LCD screen and result in this type of issue.
Did you use adhesive strips such as these ones here - Touch screen adhesive atrips

Making this, detailed step-by-step, for those who don't want to dig thru that thread (Hopefully I'm not violating any rules. If so, Mods please replace my original post with this one)
ok I think I've discover the cause of the lift.
Got a replacement due to screen lift and guess what the new one had a slight lift on the lower left.
I figure must be a loose screw, it's not as bad as the old one where the whole left side bulged out.
So I open it and found all the screws to be snug. So I unscrewed the lower left, thinking it's too tight and that's where I discover the cause.
It's not that the screws are too loose, it's that there isn't enough space between the frame & the glass. So the tighter you screw it in, the further you're pushing the screen out, causing the lift.
Here's the simple solution I came up with.

You'll need the following:
Nexus 7 with back cover removed
Pill Blister Pack (Allergy pills from walmart shown)
Small screwdrivers
Scissors and/or knife
Sewing Needle (not pictured)
needle nose pliers OPTIONAL (for those with thick fingers)
First you need to make a hole in the blister for the screw to go thru.
Here I'm using a sewing machine like a drill press to create my hole.
Next, cut out a rectangle and use your small screwdriver (Bigger than the needle, but smaller than the screw)
This will make the hole bigger for the screw to fit. While blister is still on screwdriver, use your knife and run it around the excess plastic created by the screwdriver.
Remove the blister and trim the corners so that it'll fit in the round frame
Remove the screw from the frame and slide the blister in between the frame
Screw the screw back snug, DON'T OVER TORQUE IT!
Right away the screen lift is gone where the blister is installed. Repeat for each screw where the screen is lifting up.
Cut away the excess so you can put the cover back on
Don't cut it flush to the frame, leave a little so you can grab it and remove it if you need to.
OPTIONAL - use a flathead to push that little bit down to eliminate any chance of obstructing the back cover.
Snap the back cover back on and enjoy your flush screen.
depending on how much lift you have, you might have to use 2 or more to fill the gap. But beware, the more you add the thicker the frame will be and you might run into issues with the back cover not fitting snug.
Looks interesting, might give this a whirl later.
ya!
After receiving my replacement today only to find out it had the same problem I tried this and so far so good! I hope it stays! Thank you for this!
Awesome job :good:
Update: Failed. Spent Hour trying this. Keeps coming back just putting the case back on. Ill try again on Monday. Used same thickness plastic, then tried thinner, then tried IDE Floppy Cable (ASUS brand haha).
I am sending this back anyways. Here is my before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2jDIgiWFPgc
_________________________________________
Tried it with 1 on top. 2 on top. 2 on bottom (Pictured below). All 4.
I'll confirm this is still working 24 hours later and feels more solid than it did when I first took It out of the box. Thank you so much! I started the RMA process and received the links to order my replacement when I read they hold another $225 from your account until they receive the original back and determine I caused no damage. You saved me a lot of time/hassle/and money being held from me for at least 1-2 weeks.

Yes thank you man, I tried it when you first posted it yesterday, I can vouch for the fix in this thread as i did the previous one, so happy that it is working for me and several others, it is well worth the 10-20 minutes to perform the fix.
I wish this would work on mine, but my problem is clearly related to a bad adhesive job. I'm almost tempted to re-glue it myself considering there is nothing else wrong with the thing but I'll give Google one more chance to send me a perfect one.
How about a donation link? I'd like to buy you a beer or 2 for your fix.
Wonderful job with the pictures man, they really helped. I can confirm that this works perfect for me too. I just did not but the tablet immediately feels better. No squishyness at all. With the previous fix (tightening the screws) the screen still felt squishy. Nothing now. It feels just as sturdy as the right hand side.

I initially thought mine may have been adhesive related.. but turns out after this fix, it really is not.
Edit: id highly suggest giving this a try, it isnt difficult, probably cannot be detected as "user modification" if you remove the makeshift washers. If you dont want to that's your call, but i think the problem is still fixable with this method.

I dunno man, I can actually see underneath the glass on mine, that's how bad it is. I might give this a shot while I'm waiting for my replacement but I really don't expect it to do any good.

I really would give this a shot...I'm convinced the issue is not adhesive related. My tab doesn't actually have a screen lift issue... it has been making a crunching sound that i discovered is actually just the black tape/insulation that the little black foam piece is glued to. If you remove the back cover and just fiddle with that black insulation you should hear the crunching i described. I am 90% sure that the crunching sound people are reporting is really not going to affect your devices integrity at all. Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on that one.
So far so good. Let's see whether it stays that way or not. The left side feel solid now
Thanks for the fix and the photos.

I just opened up my buddy's N7 with him, and check this out. It looks like the N7 already has some type of circular washers in this spot. OP, and those of you who have done this - did your N7s have these circular washers as well, or was that space totally hollow? I couldn't tell from your pictures. I've attached pictures so you can see what I'm talking about. It doesn't look like there's room in here to add the blister pack washers you guys are talking about, unless I really have to struggle to shove them in. Is it possible some N7s were missing these washers?

No, those were there on all of them. Those do not come out as far as i can tell. The blister washer goes in between the black round part and the back plate where the screw enters. Its snug but it should be, this will allow you to snug up the screws and alleviate the pressure on the screen. People seem to forget that only adhesive would not cause glass to bend, it would just sit loose but not protrude upward without a force behind it.
I just did what op did and everything is working fine. Fantastic work!

You, sir, are brilliant. I just did the fix and it seems to be holding well. I'll see how it is tomorrow but the logic behind it seems solid.
Thank you for sharing!
Performed the fix, and it seems to have fixed the problem on my friend's N7. The OP is smarter than stinking Asus! Bravo.
One minor issue on the N7 I did this on is the back doesn't seem to be completely flush with the bezel now in the area with the washers, but this beats the screen lifting.
Have people allowed enough time after performing this and rechecked their screens? Everyone was saying retorquing the screws was the fix, and it initially looked like it did help, but eventually the screen came back up.
Thanks for the fix, but to be honest all this seems to be ridiculous, there should be no defect in a product you had to pay good money for. I'm hoping a fix comes soon out of the box.
Motorola Atrix HD Repair Guide
Our take apart repair guide will show you how to disassemble the Motorola Atrix HD quickly and safely. This guide was designed by the Repairs Universe team and can help you replace a cracked or damaged touch screen glass digitizer, and damaged or faulty LCD display screens, as well as other internal faulty parts.
This guide will help you to install the following Motorola Atrix-HD parts:
Motorola Atrix HD LCD Display Screen
Motorola Atrix HD Touch screen digitizer
Tools Required:
T5 Torx Srewdriver
Save open Pry opening Tool
First step is taking out the sim card. This is located on the left side of the device.
Lift up the door and push down on the SIM card and it will release. If you have a micro SD card you will need to remove it.
Now you will need to remove the back plate of the device using the safe open pry tool which you can order from Repairsuniverse.com.
The back plate is held in by adhesive and you will need to be careful when prying the back plate off not to pull out the battery.
Start prying from the bottom of the device and then proceed all around the edges gently.

Using the T5 Screwdriver you will need to remove 10 screws around the edges of the device.
There are 2 screws which hold the battery terminal which we will remove later.
Once the screws all around the device have been removed, you can start removing the Mid Frame Bezel just like the back battery door in the first step.
Start from the bottom of the device and begin releasing the clips all the way around.
Now that the Mid Frame Bezel has been removed, you can remove the 2 screws holding the battery into the device. There will be a little red grommet piece which indicates where the terminal screws for the battery are located.
You can now remove the screws holding the silver frame in place. There are 10 screws around the edges of the device.
Take the frame out and place to the side.
Now you are ready to remove the LCD and touch screen digitizer. You will need to release the LCD and touch screen digitizer flex cables from the motherboard.
Once the ribbons have been released you may now begin removing the motherboard.
Using a safe open pry tool, begin lifting the motherboard which is held in by minor adhesive.
After the Motherboard has been removed you can move the long touch screen digitizer flex ribbon cable upwards away from the LCD.
You can now remove the LCD just like the motherboard.
We are now ready to take the touch screen digitizer off of the frame and replace with a new touch screen digitizer.
You want to press outwards all around the edges to remove the touch screen digitizer.
Applying heat with a heat gun or hot hair dryer will loosen the adhesive for easier removal if needed.
You can now replace the touch screen digitizer and the LCD.

You're Very Welcome!
thanks for the nice guide.
I somewhat successfully replaced my digitizer last night. I had to main problems:
a) somehow I created a bunch of streaks on the back of the digitizer trying to clean off a few dust particles. I made things much worse after getting too close to the felt-like border around the digitizer. Damaged the border and had big problems cleaning off the adhesive that got on the screen. I ended up doing an ok job cleaning it up, but have some backlight bleed through where the border was damaged. I'd recommend to be VERY careful in trying to clean off anything on the inside of the glass.
b) I also have a defect on the LCD toward the top of the screen.
the strange thing is that the white spots are (mostly) only visible on a black backround. They are only slightly noticable on full color fields.
the other strange thing is that it appears the white spots are not full pixels - as you can see in the close up.
if this was damage to the LCD, I'd expect that the entire pixel would not work (unless I'm not correctly identifying what a pixel actually is). I'll prob try to disassemble again tonight and at least make sure the flex cable is fully seated. I'm thinking about ordering a replacement LCD display, but a little hesitant unless I can figure out what caused/is causing the problem.
I wonder if anyone has seen something like this before - and if this is likely damage to the LCD or an assembly related issue. any feedback would be appreciated!

This is where you applied too much pressure to the LCD screen. Sometimes it works out, others, it is that way for good. I usually see this when the screen has been flexed or hit. If a bright background kills it for you, then go bright. Otherwise you may want to consider replacing the LCD. But considering the amount of money you already invested in the digizer, you might want to save for something else...up to you.
Is there any other type of glue that I can used?

thanks for the reply. guess that happened when trying to detach the LCD from the PCB. bummer.
I think I'm going to end up replacing the screen...I'm not seeing many new phones that have both SD card support and HDMI (or at least MHL) out. Hopefully this thing will have a long life as ROM support grows.
We highly suggest using 3M adhesive as advertised on our site. I'm sure there are other adhesive agents you can use. But in the event you would have to re-open the device, you could run into issues.

Hi,
I replaced the digitizer but after assembling the whole phone observed that the screen has white glow on the edges. maybe the digitizer was not glued properly to the outer casing. I used 3m tape and applied it evenly though.
However, after using the phone i came to know that it is not reacting to the touch gestures at the top end part. I suppose it is a faulty digitizer. Right ??
I have ordered the replacement and will be doing it again. Any tips to avoid the white edge problem will be appreciated. :good:

Yep , sounds like a bad Touch Screen.
Now with the white edges . Check to make sure the LCD is adhesive to the touch screen good. Sounds to me like the LCD is showing though the Touch.
Thanks. This worked out for me.
Is your Moto X in need of repair? The Repairs Universe Team has created this repair guide to help repair your Moto X! This guide will assist in the replacement of a broken or cracked screen on your new Moto X. It will take you step by step through how to replace the screen assembly as well as other important internal components you may need to replace.
This guide will help install the following Moto X parts:
Moto X LCD + Touch Screen Digitizer Assembly
Other Internal Components
Tools Required:
T4 Torx Screwdriver
Safe Open Pry Tool
Sim Card Removal Tool
How to Fix a Motorola Moto X (Step-by-Step Guide) :
Begin by using the sim card tray removal tool (provided by Motorola) and remove the sim card and the sim card tray located on the side of the device. A paper clip can also be used for this removal.
Use the pry tool to release the clips that hold the back cover to the device.
While completing this step be careful on the side of the device where the volume buttons are, making sure not to rip or tear the flex ribbon connector.
Once you have released the clips and adhesive from the back cover, cautiously turn the device over to the left side while being sure to avoid any damage to the flex ribbon connection on the back cover.
Release the jaw bone connection shown in the figure below, which will remove the back cover completely.
See figure below for reference.

Using your T4 Torx Screwdriver remove the T4 screws (11) that are circled in RED in the figure below.
There is also a metal spacer (highlighted in GREEN below), that should be set to the side for re-assembly later.
*Figure 3.1* Carefully release the clips and remove the upper housing using the pry tool. The housing holds the audio jack and loud speaker assembly.
*Figure 3.2* It is important to be careful with the right side of the housing, which should be handled with care because it's held on with clips in the housing and can be delicate.
*Figures 3.3 - 3.4* Using the pry tool remove the lower housing, at the same time be careful not to damage the clips holding it in place.
See figure below for reference.
*Figure 4.1* Release the battery connection using the pry tool.
*Figure 4.2* Release the volume button flex cable by releasing the jaw connection.
*Figure 4.3* Release the pop connector for the upper sensor and ear speaker assembly.
*Figure 4.4* Then flip over the motherboard exposing the jaw-bone connection. Now you can release the connection and remove the motherboard and battery.
*Figure 5.1* With the pry tool carefully remove the upper sensor assembly. Be mindful that underneath this sensor is the ear speaker which is attached to the housing.
*Figure 5.2* Take off the metal clip which covers the volume button flex cable.
*Figure 5.3* Now you can easily remove the volume and power buttons. Next, using your pry tool (or plastic tweezers) peel off the volume buttons, be careful not to rip or tear the ribbon cable.
*Figure 5.4* Set the buttons and volume flex ribbon cable to the side for re-assembly later.
See figure below for reference.
Both sides of the screen assembly contain small pins (7) which hold the screen assembly to the housing.
*Figures 6.1 - 6.2* Remove the pins (7) by pushing them out from the inside of the housing. This is most effectively done using the Sim card removal tool (provided by Motorola).
*Figure 6.3* Now that the pins have been removed use your pry tool to release the grey housing from the screen assembly. Be careful not to break the clips which hold the housing in place.
*Figure 6.4* You can completely remove the housing now that it has been released from the screen assembly.
See figure below for reference.
Finally, re-assemble the Moto X by reversing the above steps and install a new LCD + Touch Screen assembly.

I was wondering if anyone has found out if you can just replace the screen if the screen is cracked but still works.
Hey!
Does anyone know where I might find a replacement female headphone jack for the phone? Mine has become "loose," losing connection to multiple headsets whenever the 3.5mm jack is moved even slightly.
Thanks.

Hey guys,
My phone is Xperia V as many of you might know.. It fell out of my pocket last night.
The upper screen above the Sony logo got a little crack, but that's not the thing i'm worried about..
The bottom of the screen became unresponsive :/
Bad luck i guess. The screen displays perfect, it is just unresponsive to touch inputs.
Also, i'm out of warranty. Not only cause my bootloader is unlocked, the warranty period ended 4 months ago.
(relocked bootloader and reverted to stock, still nothing)
Look at this quick image if you don't know what i mean:

I honestly don't think there's an easy solution myself, but just thought of creating a thread anyway who knows..
What to do?
3 months ago, my xv fell out of my pocket too and upper screen above the Sony logo got cracked and my screens upper part became unresponsive I took it to repair center,and the found out that the touch input was broked. Because xv uses sensor on lens, I had to replace both screen & touch input together. It cost me about 100 dollars.

Yep, cracked mine a while ago, and it renders whole touch screen useless unlike some other phones. Managed to replace it myself, fiddley but do-able if you have some experience in taking phones apart.
really seems to be a hardware problem....maybe the colonel can give a little hint on how to repair it.
i think this is the part u need http://www.amazon.de/OnceAll-Digitizer-Screen-Display-XPERIA/dp/B00FHIO6C8

U can operate your phone with mouse over OTG cable. Using a mouse, go to developer options and enable show touches. I saw some touch points upper of my screen around the cracked area. Btw, I was not under warranty.
Thanks for the help y all, i am taking it to the service center today, let's see what they have to say. In case repairing is too expensive, i will do it manually.

The digitizer and LCD are one, so yes you do take the risk of getting a cheap panel. There are many on ebay, i looked for one that had a similar code on the back to mine, which was a Sharp panel. I don't remember the code now...
The phone comes apart really easily, apart from the hardest part of getting the old screen off, (a real PITA). I used a hairdryer and much patience and shattering of glass (wear safety goggles). Clean it up really well, and you will also need to get some 3M double sided adhesive tape to stick the new one back on(really really thin strips). I would suggest assembling the phone and trying to see if the screen works before sticking it in place..
Let me know if you need any more advice.

Just take it really slowly and lots of repeated heat with a hairdryer, and something really thin to pry it off that wont damage the plastic parts.

I got it off at last.. the screen is now completely unusable though.
I've looked for the adhesive tape and found two. When you say "really thin strips" do you mean 1mm or 3mm?

It depends on which part, you need different for different places. you can see what fits. I think i bought a sheet and cut pieces from it with a very sharp knife and put them in place. But strips will work also.

Have you solve this? My dropped today and my upper part of screen became irresponsible.
Did you buy the new LCD and digitizer or only the digitizer? I thought, that in this phone it is only one part, but I saw some offers on ebay where were only digitizers.
Can you please tell where did you bought it?

First do this - Take the phone apart, then disconnect the digitizer (you don't need to take the screen off to do this).
The digitizer has a small connector on it - Disconnect that too. Now reconnect both. Then power on your phone.
screen works > good for you
screen still dead > bad luck
I would highly recommend getting the LCD and digitizer in one. HOWEVER getting the screen + front cover is much easier as you don't need to take the old screen off and stick the new one back on (not that easy). And + you would only need to move the hardware.
FYI; If you have the 'sharp' type of display now, i recommend getting the 'sony' display (much better colors and contrast).
Sony displays have a somewhat similar code to this on the back: Z181FF0013

I have(had) the display from sony, this is why I was thinking about the digitizer only. So the display and the digitizer can split up? But I guess that I will need both parts because of the crack on the glass.
I can not find any offers where the code can be seen on the internet. But I will try to look closer.
Anyway, thanks for the tip with disconnecting and connecting the digitizer, I will definitely try it.
EDIT: Did you find any good disassembling guide?

Yes, that's it. The display and digitizer can be split up, but i don't think i would mess with that..
Keep in mind that some uses pictures from sharp panels even though it's sony. Better ask for the code to be sure.
And also someone from another thread said that the phone most likely would not be waterproof after replacing the screen. . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2169802
There's most likely disassembling guides on youtube, have a look at them

Opened the box, took it out of the plastic and after a few minutes - dropped it and the digitizer died.
I wonder how tf that happened. Totally unbelievable and i just bought the tape some days ago. Also i won't know if it broke during shipping or after i dropped it
