Duration: 45 minutes
Steps: 7 Steps
Alright, champ! Your Lumia 535 is having charging or microphone issues? No sweat! Time to swap out that charging port and mic flex cable. Let’s get this done! 💪
Step 1
– First things first, let’s power down that phone! Give it a quick shut-off.
– Next, it’s time to get to the heart of the matter: pop out the battery, and carefully remove any SIM and memory cards you’ve got in there.
Step 2
– Grab your trusty Torx T4 screwdriver and get ready to unscrew those 9 little screws! It’s as easy as pie—just twist and remove!
Step 3
– Let’s get this party started! Gently pry the back cover away from the middle frame using a plastic opening tool.
Step 4
– First things first, let’s disconnect!
– Time to unscrew those 2 Torx T4 screws – easy peasy!
– Carefully detach the touch screen flex cable.
– Next up, gently remove the LCD Display flex cable.
– For the Charging Dock board flex cable, peel off the foam and tape, then flip up the black lock before gently pulling the flex out.
– When it comes to the coaxial antenna cable, take it slow and steady – remember to pull the metal connector, not the cable itself. We don’t want to accidentally yank the cable from the connector!
Step 5
– Drop some wisdom right here!
Step 6
– Time to uncouple the coaxial antenna cable! You’ve got this.
– This cable is snugly connected at a few spots to the frame and the board. Just take your time and gently ease it off.
Step 7
Let’s keep those tools plastic, okay? You wouldn’t want to scratch up your precious device!
– The board is stuck to the main frame with some adhesive tape magic.
– Grab that hot gun or hair dryer and give the board a warm hug.
– Now, you should be able to gently peel the board away from the main frame like a pro!
Success!
