Before starting make sure the tablet is off.

Step 2 SIM and SD cards

Remove the SIM and SD cards.

Step 3 screen

To access the interior of the tablet, we must take off the screen. This is stuck to the chassis by a strip of double-sided adhesive that runs along the contour.

We will apply heat with a thermal mat to soften the adhesive located around the contour.

We introduce an opening tool like a barb or opening letter between the glass and the plastic frame and we go around the contour, taking off the adhesive.

Step 4

The screen carries a flex data cable that connects it to the motherboard. We must be careful to separate it from not damaging said flex.

Remove the adhesive that holds the flex and unplug the connector from the motherboard to separate the screen.

Step 5

Wipe away the adhesive residue from the contour before gluing the screen again.

Step 6 Screws

Remove the 19 Phillips screws.

Step 7

Now we can separate the back covers of the chassis with the components. Use an opening tool to gently pry and unhook it.

Step 8 Front camera

Finally, disconnect the front camera from the motherboard.
