Motorola Moto G7 Screen Replacement

Introducción

The Motorola Moto G7 has a glass LCD display with a Gorilla Glass screen. Like most glass screen phones it is prone to cracks and other screen malfunctions when dropped or damaged in other ways. Damage to the screen or display may cause internal damage as well.

Before you begin, download the Rescue and Smart Assistant app to backup your device and diagnose whether your problem is software or hardware related.

This guide outlines the steps to take to properly and safely remove the screen for replacement. The specific device model used in this guide is Motorola Moto G7.

See the troubleshooting page if you may not be confident in a primary assessment of the device. Always be careful handling the damaged screen as shattered glass can cause injury.

    • Use the iFixit opening tools to gently wedge the front screen from the rest of the device.

    • Try to focus on the corners to make it easier to insert and use the iFixit opening picks.

    • It is also recommended to use the iOpener or a heat gun to weaken the adhesive that holds the edges of the screen down.

    • The screen is glass, so when using force to lift the screen, be cautious of cracked glass and stray shards of glass coming off.

    • You have to be extra careful to dig deep enough, so you lift the entire screen unit!

    I just destroyed my screen by dividing it in two parts. You have to be extra careful to dig deep enough in the first step, so you lift the entire screen unit!

    Thanks... I almost did just that!

    • Use a spudger to gently take off the metal piece that was held down by the screws.

    • A second metal piece is held under the first. This can also be popped off by using the spudger and nudging it under the metal piece connected to the band.

    This would also be a good place to disconnect the battery connector, which is right under the display connector.

    At this point, one could remove the battery. I don't see why the remaining steps are necessary.

    Kimball - Contestar

    there is one more piece to remove here. 3 black screws (T3 but longer) and the part visible above the battery on the last image above. Empty space on the top of the image in step 5.

The replacement part listed here on iFixit indicates installation adhesive is not included. Can you reuse the adhesive on the old part? If not, what adhesive is recommended for this type of repair?

Gabe LaBounty - Contestar

You can’t. I used the 1 mil tape and it worked.

Javier Vilalta - Contestar

How much would it cost to send this in for someone else to put in a new screen?
