When your beloved phone screen suddenly cracks or its battery life plummets, have you ever looked at the repair shop’s quote of several hundred dollars and thought: “What if I could fix it myself?”
That idea isn’t far-fetched. In fact, with the rise of professional toolkits like the X1-I Electric Screwdriver Set, DIY electronics repair is no longer limited to experts.

Choose Your Parts: Pick original or high-quality replacement parts yourself.
Learn a Lifelong Skill: Gain practical knowledge you’ll use again and again.

Step-by-Step: Replacing a Smartphone Screen

Before You Begin

  • Gather your tools: X1-I set, replacement screen, suction cup, opening picks.

  • Work in a clean, well-lit space.

  • Wear an anti-static wrist strap and power off the device completely.

Disassembly Process

  • Gently heat the edges of the screen with a hot air gun (70–80°C) to soften the adhesive.

  • Attach the suction cup and carefully lift a small gap. Slide an opening pick inside.

  • Slowly work your way around the display, cutting through the adhesive. Avoid the flex cable areas.

  • Lift the screen open at a 30-degree angle.

Critical Tips

  • Disconnect the battery first to prevent short circuits.

  • Use the correct bit size to avoid stripping screw heads.

  • Keep screws organized and note where each one goes.

  • Handle front camera, sensors, and other small components with care.

Reassembly

  • Test the new screen before final installation.

  • Thoroughly clean old adhesive from the frame.

  • Apply a new layer of waterproof adhesive evenly.

  • Reinstall all components in reverse order.

Other Repairs You Can Tackle with the X1-I

Beyond screen replacement, this set equips you for:

  • Battery Replacement: Use the flexible shaft to access deeply embedded screws.

  • Camera Module Repair: Precise torque prevents damage to delicate ribbon cables.

  • Logic Board Repairs: Multiple socket sizes fit a variety of nuts and standoffs.

  • Laptop Cleaning & Maintenance: Long bits help reach internal screws.

Safety First: A Few Words of Caution

  • Always disconnect power before starting.

  • Handle small components gently.

  • When in doubt, seek professional help.
