Duration: 45 minutes
Steps: 10 Steps
Got a tablet that’s as dead as a brick? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! This step-by-step guide will walk you through replacing your tablet’s battery, so you can get back to binge-watching your favorite shows or crushing it in your favorite game. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair.
Step 1
Be sure to power down your device! Keeping it on might give you a surprise jolt. Let’s keep things safe and sound.
– Position the device so the screen is facing you.
Step 2
The screen is stuck tight to the tablet, so be prepared to bring out the big guns – a metal spudger – if your plastic spudger just isn’t cutting it. Don’t worry, with a little extra muscle, you’ll be able to pry that screen open in no time!
– Grab your trusty plastic opening tool and gently nudge open the bottom left corner of the screen. You’ve got this!
Step 3
– Now, gently coax the top left corner of the screen open. You’ve got this!
Step 4
– Now, let’s make some magic happen! Gently work your way into the top right corner of the screen and pry it open. You’re doing great!
Step 5
– Finally, give that bottom right corner of the screen a little nudge to pop it open!
Step 6
Hey there! A little heads up: steer clear of prying open the screen from the left side of the tablet. It’s glued down tighter than your favorite pair of jeans! If you try this, you might end up causing some damage. Let’s keep it smooth sailing!
– Now that you’ve successfully pried open all the corners, it’s time to carefully swing open the screen from the right side of the tablet. Take your time and be gentle – you’re making great progress!
Step 7
– Now that you’ve got your tablet opened up, it’s time to track down the connector. Locate it and get ready for the next step!
Step 8
– Gently disconnect the connector from the tablet. A smooth and steady hand will do the trick!
Step 9
Once those screws are out of the picture, it’s time to lift off the silver cover—it’s like peeling back a protective shield on your mission!
– Time to get crafty! Grab your trusty Philips #1 screwdriver and take out those eight 7 mm screws. You’ve got this!
Step 10
Now that the battery is disconnected, it’s time to say goodbye – carefully remove the battery from your tablet.
– Grab those tweezers and gently unplug the battery from the tablet, just like you’re giving it a little break. You’ve got this!
