You're my savor! Got a new screen but didn't find the right video with the right kindle to know what to disconnect... Got a question though... How do you get the new screen to stick? Do you put glue or something? Thanks for the help!

@RichieWellock 3 года назад

Glad I could help . so i didnt put any new glue in, also helps in future, if some of the old sticky still there it sufficently holds, when clipped back together.

Absolutely especially with a knife, instead of them poo plastic things. so the reason for vid. No tools vid & quite a few folk have heat destroyed there kindles. Obviously naively damaged with the iron directly on the screen. Yeah any heat heat over 75 centigade will start making easier to remove . nicely pointed out.

I have done this on my daughters amazon kindle fire 7. The new screen works fine. Touch screen fine then wouldnt work when i put the back back on. Its working with the back on but only if i dont 'pop' the top left corner of the back into place. Any ideas why? Great video! Thankyou!

@RichieWellock 3 года назад

there is a braded cord that on the right hand side of pcb , once turned round to screen side that braided wire is now on the left it controls the video info. so with back of im guessing a slight pressing on it will turn screen off. If thats the case its potential that the back now has a slight bevel on it so when placed on it puts pressure on that lead to the video process chip. If thats not it I have not got a foggest. hope it helps.

@hollygraham4496 3 года назад

Thankyou for the quick reply! I will have a look. Either way my daughter is over the moon with her 'new' tablet 😊 Thanks again

@dr_ned_flanders 2 года назад

You seem to be doing this repair quite often so I am surprised that you haven't invested in the special tool also known as a spudger. They are useful precisely because they are made of plastic and so don't mess up the edge around the tablet. Also, using a sharp knife seems extremely dangerous. One slip and you would have disembowelled yourself.

@RichieWellock 2 года назад

Yeah Ive got them for phone use, they are really poor on the kindle and most of all the glue off the screen is really hard off the screen otherwise. My method is certainly a lawsuit in the making. Works also best with hot water bottle to ease of screen by warming off , but as video USP is how to with no tools, i went the road I did. thanks so much for your comment.

@superhugful 2 года назад

Hi Ritchie, i have broken my screen but have a spare broken kindle, can i transfer the screen without breaking the digitiser?

@RichieWellock 2 года назад

It depends if both kindles are exactly the same model , ie a amazon kindle 5 screen will not work in a kindle 8 or vise verser. BUT IF THEY ARE SAME TYPE IT SHOULD WORK, do not forget that if screen is not working it may be the main board that has stopped working or the vga chip. but if they are not working , you might as well give a try. the small ribon cable on the right top side;;i think . can be tricky if not placed back correctly and you can get colour distortion if not correctly placed back and correct force keeping it back in place. it also has a sticky anti static tab keeing it in place . so make sure to put that back. please if you try and suceed or not get back to me so i know how it went. also be sure to disconect battery as it small current from doing this work can disrupt the chip. good luck and well worth trying if they are not working at moment.

how is battery replacement in one of these?

@RichieWellock 3 года назад

yeah thanks @Preston wilks , I will eddit and bring out soon, ive just need to edit and do. So the battery is a soft square pack that despite having one battery number (forgot for now) it has two very diffrent connections , you can get for 15 quid of ebay. it is stuck down by tape . if you check my vids i may have a vid for a similar amazon battery removal. But tell me your prob as may not be battery.

@prestoBMXs 3 года назад

@@RichieWellock it takes Approximately 800 years to charge to full. maybe a charge port, might not be worth fixing.

@RichieWellock 3 года назад

@@prestoBMXs ok Im sure you have tried but always worth the basics , dif adapter or usb lead as if it does not have correct MA current it will trickle charge if you are lucky or more other it will even drain bat, even though you are charging it. this rarely happens with port defficiancy. But can in fact most usb not charging on ports are miss diagnosed as most people will hear that usb power lost by screen visual or the audio of that drop out noise of no longer charging. this can happen for battery ill charging or usb fit or adapter power below the shold. as when it checks power through put it desides it is not tolerances required( real reason not authenticated amazon power adapter) Happy days if it is battery malfunction as easy swap out or that of authentic adapter. As to if it is the usb port, well its a real bitc# to do.

if command power down does not work, press constantly on power on button until it turns off, this can be twenty seconds constant of pressing button, then it push into power down. leave for at least a minute before you attempt power on. if it does not work after that it serious and if in warranty needs sending off.

@RichieWellock Год назад

ok thats some crack that caused that, ok do same as with this with digi , order a lcd screen also the cable run is above the battery on right side or 07:20 in my video its a square block above the battery. if you can fit the digi you can fit the screen. BUT as having digi problem and screen also it may be just better to get new tablet. as economic repair is getting there. If you think of your time also . hope it helps

@RichieWellock Год назад

ok just had re think, what if your digi is cracked and your screen cable has come out and makes you think the lcd screen is broken. have a check of that as it will look like the lcd is cracked, if you remove you will know by taking of the digi screen. if the screen does not illuminate check the connections to lcd. then you will know for sure. have fun
