Incredible S disassembled

Hey guys
So i cracked my touch digitizer and decided to chance it myself.
I have taken some pictures of the phone disassembled.
So if anyone is curoius to see the inside of their phone, here it is...
If there is something you want a closer look of, just tell me and i will take a picture.
I haven't put it back together yet, cause i didn't know you needed some special tape to mount the digitizer...

Pretty neat. I rember taking my Nexus One apart. I got the digitizer and screen together. Didn't want to deal with the tape/glue aspect.

Great job!
I was in the same shoe as you. Mine was a badly cracked LCD while the touch screen didn't even have a single scratch. Don't ask how I did it
Dismantling the LCD and the touch screen assembly was the toughest part. Seems like all newer and slimmer phones are using glue to fix their parts together. A nightmare for DIY.
I used normal double sided tape to put mine back together. Seems to be holding well so far. However, I am still looking around for better alternatives. Let me know if you find one!
I love my INCS!

could you make close-up pics from the bottom leds that are being used?
im actually thinking of replacing them for blue or orange

Was it hard to do because I have some dust under my screen and maybe give it a try.

How did you manage to crack the gorilla glass??

Yeah, i'm gonna try to replace my digitizer as well, i'm kinda scared to pull the screen & digitizer apart... I've read that you can heat it up using a hairdryer and that the glue will get loose, but i'm not sure if i have the guts to heat my screen up
So how did you manage to get the screen off?

Don't think it is worth the effort and risk to just get rid of a few dust particles.

Guys, using a hairdryer f***s the phone up. You don' need lot of time to overheat any metal parts and circuits and stuff break...
You think it isnt that hot, but works the same way like when u are in the sauna and your necklace burns your neck when it hangs apart from your body for a couple of seconds.

I'm afraid i cant to that. I'm afraid of braking it when removing the tape wich is on it. The button "display" is 0,5 mm thick or so. Im not even sure it is possible to replace them.

Dont do it just to remove some dust. Not worth the risk. Its not that easy to take it off.

After removing everything on the back i was able to push at the back of the screen in the top of the phone, and then get a little plastick tool in and pulled it of.
Its quite hard to pull off but the glass was already cracked so i just pulled a bit hard.
I was a little bit more carefull with the LCD. Its also quite hard to remove. Just took my chances and hoped the glue would give in before the LCD craced

Cool story bro, I always wanted to know what's inside!

Can you post a high res picture of just the mother board particularly the NAND flash of possible

I'm also looking for what I need to re attach the digitizer. Any ideas

What did you use to glue the digitizer back on? I broke mine and waiting for new digitizer and housing to come in. But i have no idea what is used to glue it back on. Also wondering if the digitizer gets glued back onto the lcd or onto the housing or both? Thanks guys!

Move slowly in every step
alright first, power off tablet
locate the two screws, one in each docking port ( be careful of the screws they are very tiny ) ONLY TWO SCREWS TOTAL
use the screwdriver to push towards the glass from inside the docking port. ( be careful, push slowly the glass is only held down with plastic clip )
Use prying tool to lift up the glass, focus on the area thats loose.
apply a thin layer of glue ( i used Krazy glue ) to the glass edge
push glass back in place and screw the screws back
I should have taken pictures

Sorry, no, I had to send the third one back to because a loud crack is to be heard when softly whincing the tablet. I'm not going to repair faulty devices on my own as long as there is warranty.
Now I wait for the next charge of TF701 (newer than 11.2013) to see if Asus has addressed this problem.

Sorry to revive an old thread but I have no idea how to seperate the lcd from the digitizer. My problem is much worse than a lose bezel. The tablet fell and well..shattered. Digitizer is gone but LCD is ok. So I found on ebay a digitizer on it's own but before buying it, I want to first know how to seperate the LCD so I can reuse it.
Attached is the disassembled LCD + Digitizer.
I got to this part but can't figure out how to take out the LCD. I don't know if you can see, but there are like plastic clips all around the LCD. How do I take it out? I am not even sure if it is taped or not at this point. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Robert

There are a couple of good videos on YouTube about screen replacement on the TF300 and 700 - which are basically the same. One is by FixPhone Land, the other by AJ parts UK. The latter is the better one IMO.

I got to the part where I have the glass/digitizer/lcd bit in my hand but I will not go through the effort of seperating the glass from the digitizer. A new digitizer and glass will cost €105 with shipping, and I do not think it is worth repairing. I will assemble it and sell it as broken for parts.
Thanks anyway.

[Q] just the glass replacement

Is it possible to heat up the glass and carefully remove the front broken glass, then use loca glue and a UV light to glue on a new one. Saw it done on a first gen put can u do it on these too, it seems there is now bezel or frame around the glass like the first gen either.

If you watch Erika griffins tear down I believe (don't quote me ) that you have to take the phone apart and you'd risk doing damage to the back cover very easy to damage that taking it off

I just found this video. It is not mine.
This is the only way to replace the glass.

OK got a chance to watch the whole video, looks like he striped it all the way down to the front display assembly, then put the glass on a hot plate and got a string to separate the glue from the glass. Still would like to know if its necessary to disassemble the phone? Was it because he didn't want the heat to get to the stuff inside the phone?

Anyone?

[Q] Glass Replacement

Hi guys.
I've dropped my xt1068 on a floor and the glass got cracked although the screen works perfectly (no damaged parts at all). I've buyed the replacement glass from ebay (this one http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Front...244?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item566c04b4ec ).
My question is, have anyone passed through this situation? Is there any way to replace it without damaging the screen? I heard that glass is glued to the digitalizer screen and I'm worried.
Any thoughts?

I don't think it is glued, but if it is try putting some light heat on it, not real hot though. The glass is meant to be replaced. I'm guessing you have the disassemble instructions.

Thanks. But the video shows how to replace the whole screen, I just bought the glass (which I need to replace). I've little concerned about separating glass from screen.
And the only tutorial I found is for samsung galaxy s4.

I'd give it a shot. The worst you could do is have to put it back together with the broken glass. It's a pretty straightforward job taking it apart. Just be careful with the pins on the cables you unplug.

I've also bought a uv glue to glue it better. After the process, I'll share the results.

Screen lifting

Hi hope someone can offer some advice, I have replaced the screen on my Z3 compact. Screen works fine but it is lifting and not sticking. I have tried different types of tape, I have applied tape to the edge of the screen itself and the frame it's still lifting. Please can someone offer some advice

Any one got any advice, this must be an issue somewhere.

Consider buying a B-7000 glue, it is used for displays mostly, I was advised by a friend to use it, since my screen has unglued as well, and he has already repaired couple of Z3/Z3c devices with it, and there were no reported lifted screens since than. For the back panel, you can use double sided tape, but adding B-7000 glue on one side (to avoid cracking sounds, depending on the used tape probably). You can do a bit of searching on Youtube for repair videos, I recall watching some with the mentioned B-7000 glue, easy to find.
I haven't done it myself, but I will very soon, dust has filled my front cam, and proximity sensor.
Good luck.

I think B7000 will get the job done. I have used it for my device and it has been a month already, screen and back plate haven't moved a bit, its like new. One thing to remember though, you have to make sure the whole frame is COMPLETELY covered with glue, otherwise it will not be enough to hold the screen. I made a mess at first try, because I missed some spots and the screen lifted on sides, next time though, I've checked 3 times for any empty spots and applied glue to those spots, now everything is perfect. Of course, you should cover frame only, avoid applying that much so that glue is dripping inside the phone itself.
Good luck

Gooood,ill give it a shot. But i was thinking if must remove back cover and the screen for glue only a corner...the back cover doesnt have any problem, only the display in left corner is unglued. And if i must to remove thats, i must buy and that adezive black or simple use only b7000 ? Thanks

I have some of the B-7000. Stuck the screen down over a week ago appears to be fine. The only issue I have is that I think the glue has squeezed onto the front camera, the camera is now blurred. I don't use the front one so it's not a big problem.

I have used the glue, it's fine, you don't need stickers
You can try applying the glue only in that corner as well, but I'm not sure how well will that fix the issue.
I had to remove the screen anyway to clean the notification led cutout and front camera, so I didn't care for the back plate sticker.
