[Q] just the glass replacement - X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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?

I've heard that the phone isn't waterproof anymore after having changed the LCD/Touch. Is it true? Do you use the 3m double sided tape to glue the new display to the phone?
Cheers!

LCD replacement
It would depend on how clean the job you did was. I used the 3M double sided tape and made sure there were no gaps where water could get in. I also used silicone glue once the screen was installed to fill in the small gap between the screen and body to the phone. I would say it was waterproof again, bit didn't test it.

How did you go about heating the front screen? Did you require any special tools to prise it off?
screen
I wont be testing it, I just have faith in doing a good job. You are sealing glass and a 5mm edge, can't be that hard or risky.
The screen was broken, so didn't need special tools or heat, just pullled the old one off.

It is there to shield the display connectors. The best I think you could manage to do is file it down to just above the sensor.

Removing that bezel is not possible - the bezel, chassis, digitizer glass, and display panel form a single unit that cannot be disassembled without being destroyed.
The bezel is precision press-fitted into the solid metal chassis using a teflon compression washer. (The bezel has a lip that fits inside the opening of the chassis, and the teflon washer goes onto that lip. The two pieces are then compression-fitted in a precision press.) The bezel also acts the frame for the digitizer glass, and the display (which is actually a flexible sheet) is bonded to the digitizer glass using a transparent adhesive.
Thank you for the detailed answer!
cheers

I'm still waiting for someone to do a full teardown of the "R". It will be interesting viewing.

I took mine completely apart in about 5 minutes, it's very easy. You can very easily replace the battery, motherboard, and side button tact switch. Replacing the display on its own, however, is not possible - you must get a whole chassis+display assembly as removing the display from the assembly will destroy it.

I wish they would have shown taking the battery out and putting it back in. But it looks like we may have an easy time replacing the battery.

Anyway it is pretty impressive to see that it can be dismounted in less than 1 minute...

[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

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.

Fix display without dismantle the back?

Hey Guys,
i have a problem with my Z3compact.
My Display comes up on one site corner so i have to fix it again with some special glue.
I've watched some Videos how to change the display completely but then i must dismantle everything in the phone from the back.
This is a lot of work.
Is there a way to fix the display from the front without dismantle the back?
Can i heat the Display carefully and lift it of for some Millimeters. Is the connector cable long enough to do it?
Then i would take the glue and fix it again.
Or is there no chance to do so?
Thanks for Help
OK today i made it.
It is possible to lift up the display for some millimeters.
Thats enough to clean the old glue and put the new one on it.
Now i have to wait until the glue is safe.
First little Test i made everthing works.
what kind of glue did you use?
