Step 1 – Screen Testing

Function test – Display; Touch; 3D Touch

Step 2 – Bezel Removing

Place the iPhone X Screen on the Heat Platform under 70-90℃, the first step is cutting out the top bracket with Pince à découper for further operation.

Then remove bezel slowly with Pry Piece et Glue Cleaner, but be careful with flex cables when removing bezel in the flex cable area. Because the bottom bezel is applied a lot of cold glue, it must be torn under proper heating temperature. Or you may cause malfunction of displaying.

Step 3 – Glass Separating

Stick adhesive tape on the broken glass lens to prevent further damage, then place the iPhone X OLED Screen Assembly on the Heat Platform, separate the glass lens from OLED with Fil de coupe back and forth.

Step 4 – Glue Removing

There are two kinds of way to remove residual glue, one is with hands, the another is with the Outil électrique pour enlever la colle. Both are OK. We used the Electric Glue Removing Tool in our yesterday’s video. Once done, clean with N-hexane.

The OCA should be laminated to the glass lens at first, then place the mold into the laminating machine, press “OCA laminating” button to start the machine. Glass Laminating will be finished within 1 minute.

Then we need to laminate the OCA attached glass lens to the OLED screen, the same process as Glass Laminating. Press “LCD laminating” button to start the machine and about 1 minute to finish. Usually, there won’t have a bubble inside the LCD Screen with this Laminating machine, but for the better effect we still need to continue with bubble removing process.

Step 6 – Bubble Removing

Put the screen into Bubble Removing Machine for 10 minutes, once finished, take out the screen.

Step 7 – Bezel Attaching

Prepare a new iPhone X bezel and apply the bezel glue.

Tips：Apply pressure to fit the OLED screen with the bezel.
