Im now in 2024 and this guide has helped me change my 3 year old autistic son's tablet. You're awesome thank you soooo much

Great video, thanks. After unscrewing the screws as in the video I was able to gently pry up the motherboard at the USB C point enough to fish the digitizer connector through to the other side. Be careful not to stick the pry tool in too far when yanking off the busted glass (or you'll scratch the screen beneath it). Also my digitizer wouldn't work (no touch screen) until I did a hard restart. Thanks again.

Worked perfectly, I've been putting it off for 2 days and decided today was finally the day, did everything exactly how you said to in the video and had no problems whatsoever. Worst part was getting cut with glass taking the old broken digitizer off but after that it was a breeze. Thankyou for this video I hope anyone else who needs this will find this.

Thanks for the guide! if anyone wants to avoid any glass pieces from falling off the broken screen during removal, you can cover it with tape before starting.

Amazing, I had my son's tablet done in 25 minutes, thank you for this video this is my son's second tablet and I wasn't about to buy him another, glad it only cost me a few dollars and a little bit of time. Thank you for this.

Thanks for the video. Gave me the help to get the job done after my kid cracked his screen. Appreciate the help!!!

I came to figure out how to replace my cracked screen. Now I gotta find Sonic because that is way more important than device repair. Thanks for the fantastic video!

worked a treat, thanks. . I had some trouble getting the tab through the hole -removed 1st 4 screws and then was able to prise near the charging port and slide in the connector - might work for some - easier than removing motherboard.

Took about an hour or so but we got it done, my kid is happy. Thanks!

Incredibly helpful, thank you tremendously. Saved me time and money; would also like to say taping front screen with clear tape before removing is essential as well as removing tiny screws near the digitizer are great add on tips.

Just finished up the job. Thanks for making this video. Now I can fix these screens whenever my kids break them.

thanks! glad I watched this video, I had ordered the full screen, but just realized I only needed the digitizer and was able to cancel the order in time. Will be here on Friday and I will get it done. A breath of fresh air when devices are cheaply and easily reparable

Thank you very making this video. I’ve been putting this off for over a month since I accidentally stepped on my daughter’s tablet. Helped me finally get this done!

Great video! Found your instructions after buying a replacement digitizer on Amazon. First time I successfully replaced a cracked screen without destroying the lcd or other critical bits :D Glad I caught the tip to disconnect the motherboard. After removing the bottom row of screws and top right most screw, you can wedge the slot open enough that the digitizer cable passes through with ease I covered the existing screen with packing tape so it wont fly everywhere and you can peel it all cleanly away Good as new, thanks to you..

Thanks man, I had mine together and the screen wasn't working! I watched this and you mentioned the lift gate, so I went back and looked and sure enough, the lift gate on the screen itself was up... fixed now thanks to you sir!

Thank you! This worked great, I followed along and paused/rewound where needed. I was worried at first it hadn't worked as the touch wasn't working but after restarting it, it worked! So happy I fixed it, thank you for your video 😊. Ps. I wore a head torch when I did mine after seeing that tip on the comments of another KZfaq video. That was really useful to see what I was doing nice and clearly.

Thank you for the video. I just ordered the screen replacement for the second time. My son broke his tablets screen for the second time

Thanks for posting this. I was able to replace the screen on my daughter’s kindle. I had trouble removing the broken screen, it kept cracking and falling apart so I put packing tape on it to keep the small pieces from getting everywhere. The metal tool also cut my finger; I should have wrapped the tool in tape or put an adhesive bandage on my finger. Hopefully this screen lasts.

Watched five videos to help me do this and this one was by far the best. Thank you!

Thank you for making this video, it worked perfectly. My daughter will be happy to have have tablet working again.

Just used your video to repair my daughter's tablet. I really appreciate it! Thank you so much!

Great little video, thanks. Worked a treat for me, although I did have to do a "soft reset" afterwards to get the screen to turn on (panic thinking I'd done something wrong).

Thank you ! We Just replaced this tablet but I want to try to fix the screen of the old one as a little project for my daughter , she enjoys learning things like this . Thank you , we will let you know how it went .

Thanks. Helped a bunch for my kids tablet that he sat on while on holiday!

Awesome video my friend, my daughter will be so happy to see her tablet fixed this week.

thanks it worked very well. found there was black plastic holding down mother board i just had to pry harder

Great video. Took me all of 25 min to fix. Thanks man.

Thanks for the tutorial. Mine looked a tad different than yours. I had some issues lifting the motherboard to slide the touch screen wire through but figured it out eventually.

Thankyou just fixed my boys kindle for under £20

Thank you very much for this video :) I got the exact same tablet with the exact same cracked screen :D My 4 yo daughter made some fun with a 10 feets drop on stairs

Love this! Helped a ton. But not you being like “you better believe I am gonna be sonic.” Then proceeds to play the course lmao. Greatest help and the end of the video after finishing made me giggle so best video ever!

Thank you

Thank you so much!! Im sure it saved a ton doing it myself. I appreciate the walk through.

This worked perfectly. Thank you!

This is the first video that came up when I searched for this tablet screen replacement. Doing it this weekend . Also my name is Rex my sons name is Rex and your tablet says Rex. It was destiny haha

Awesome video worked like a charm. Thank you for making this video.

Thanks so much, you're video was a lifesaver 😅🥳. You saved us a lot of money.

Excellent videos, easy to follow slow instructions. thanks for sharing.

Super helpful!

I just did this. You just need to take out the 4 small screws pry the motherboard little bit. Does the trick.

Thanks !

Thank you helped me tremendously

Thanks it worked great and yes take off the mother border

I cant get the little chip that's connected to the screen off the board. Tried heat but it won't let go

I replaced the screen followed every step but now my screen is black i can hear the tablet working but no visuals

Is it the same process if its inked out???

Excellent video, thanks

Awesome video, great help thank you very much.

Why is the part where you actually attach the screen and feed through the cable missing from the video?

Will this work for water damage where audio and touch work but screen is black??

Super helpful video, thank you so much! One question though. My digitizer didn't come with any adhesive on that square part that connects to the motherboard (the square where the QR code is). Is adhesive important there? If so, what can I use?

worked good. thanks for the vid

Maybe someone can help me understand what adhesive is best to use for the electronic component that connects to the board and does it need to be conductive? My replacement screen did not come with pre installed adhesive so would like to know what to use. Maybe some thermal paste? Thanks for the help

I can not get the square thing on the new glass through the hole. The motherboard is in the way. I did take all the screws out

Did anyone else not have a sticky tab on the last little chip that needs stuck on the motherboard? Not sure what to do now.

videos good only pet peeve is u keep picking up the tablet to poke at it and push parts to make it easier and to mess with where the screen connects to the board u take it off camera and we cannot see

Followed video to a T and my screen turns on but the touch part doesn’t work

I have one rn but don't know where to buy a new screen

My ocd lol the tape cover over the little screen cable

My sons tablet does have a black spot but i see the background and it still responds to taps and clicks do you know what i would need to fix?

I got all the way to end but the new screen is not responding to touch after connecting? What could I have done wrong

Dear Tim, I have replaced the Amazon Fire HD 8 Tablet 10th Gen K72ll4 8" 32 GB Black. screen is not coming on but it make sound as you press on button. i have checked the connection to new Digitizer and all secured. do you think screen was faulty or some thing else can be wrong. Thanks for your help.

does not matter if u damage the cable...it's a bad digitizer and just unplug the battery once u get the back off.

I noticed that you have the kids edition which means you should have been under your warranty for the two year warranty right?

Hello Tim, great video, I am close to done--but stuck. My replacement screen seems to have dull layer attached to the back of the glass. When I compare them the original seems crystal clear and the new one shiny on the front, but dull on the back. It appears to be stuck pretty tight too, like if I pry on it it would break the new glass. Have you run across this before? I think the new glass is two parts, the piece in front looks like the original but the piece on the back is not. I know the front has the peel off protector, but this back piece is much thicker. I appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks again, I am almost there!

hi mine is Model R2SP8T. Any link for replacement screen? Thanks

👏🏻👏🏻

Great video but is it really worth it for a tablet and regular goes on sale for $45

What type of adhesive/tape did you use?

My lcd broke glass is fine and ita very weird

I can’t see anything your hands were out of view when u we’re taking the screen off

my lcd broke idk what happend but yeah can u give me a tip thank you

turned it on and it turned on and got to the "home" screen and then shut off ... ☹️ I thought maybe it had died but I tried charging it and nothing happens.... Any idea what could've happened? I can hear the sound it makes when I connect the charger but nothing on the screen. 😭😭😭

Need to let us know to unscrew before 😢

I changed the digitizer as well but I'm not getting any touch response. Any suggestions? Bad digitizer perhaps?

"I dunno" :P

Changed screen.. its still cracked. What to do next?….feels like I just wasted $25

I got everything except being able to use the touch screen . Smh

he did not do it right

That damn motherboard. Thanks for the help captain.
