Great instructions! Thank you. I got my wife's phone screen replaced, and it looks great, but the sticky tape on the speaker never fully stuck to the new frame, so it sounds terrible (like an AM radio inside a cardboard box) when playing audio, so she won't use it.

My heatgun only had two settings: hot and f***ing hot, so I bought a new one with 45°-650°C range. The battery took quite a while to get out - probably wary of using too much heat, so guess I used not enough - and it got a little squished at the bottom edge. But all in all I got the screen replaced in little over an hour. Overall then it probably cost me about as much as taking it to a shop, BUT now I've learnt new stuff and am set up for tackling these jobs in future and for friends too! Cheers for the help! 👍

It sounds like the same thing happened to your battery that happened to mine. My battery got a bit warped/soft at the end after applying heat and prying it out. I gently pressed it into the new screen/frame and carefully reshaped the end, and after reassembling everything, it seems to be working alright so far. Hopefully yours works out okay too.

Also, if I have to open my phone, I was thinking that maybe I better to change the battery at the same time, I've been using this since january2021, and usually li-po batteries start dying around 18 months if I charge it every day.

Since the phone is quite old, the choice is with you. Yeah, you can replace the battery on the same time. Try to get with the frame.The repair will be easier.

You need to open the back cover; You do not need to take out the logic board. But you need to take out the bottom speaker cover. Then disconnect the lcd plug from the charging port board and the Other lcd plug from the mainboard (long cable). Then you need to apply heat to the screen from the front side to take out the lcd screen. We have some lcd only screen repairs (galaxy a51) for reference. Take out the screen and place the new screen with adhesive. Just make sure to clean the frame edges and apply suitable adhesive (b7000/or precut screen adhesive, do not use any super glue)
