Tutorial: Step by step

Step 1 Tray

Before starting we must remove the tray with the cards from the tablet that we are about to repair.

Step 2 Back case

With the help of a plastic tool we will unhook all the edges of the back cover.

Step 3 We disconnect battery

We remove the adhesive that gets in the way to carry out the following steps, and with a flat tip tool we will disconnect the battery in order to work with greater safety.

Step 4 Flex with POGO connectors

We remove the Phillips screw (PH # 00) that holds the shield that covers the flex connector, and with a flat tool we will disconnect the flex with POGO connectors, and thus we can remove the back cover and work more comfortably.

Step 5 Components

We disconnect the connector from the screen, we will remove the two cameras and also the interconnection flex.

Step 6 left speaker

We remove the five Phillips screws (PH # 00) that hold the left speaker, and we will desolder the two cables that join it to the motherboard.

Step 7 right speaker

We will only have to desolder the right speaker from the motherboard, it will not be necessary to remove it.

Step 8 base plate

We will remove the twelve Phillips screws (PH # 00) that hold the motherboard to the chassis, and with the help of a flat tool we will lift it.

To carry out this repair you can also choose to unscrew the speakers from the chassis and not unsolder them, we have chosen to unsolder it for greater comfort and then make the guides.

Step 9 power button

Helping us with a fine metal spike we will take off the flex with the broken power button that we have to change.
