Einleitung
Diese Anleitung wurde von iFixit-Mitarbeiter:innen verfasst und ist keine offizielle Reparaturanleitung von Google. Hier erfährst du mehr über unsere Qualitätsstandards.
Die Anleitung zeigt dir, wie du einen gebrochenen Bildschirm, bestehend aus Display und Touchscreen, austauschen kannst. Wenn das Ersatzteil keinen Kleber enthält, benötigst du noch Klebstoff, um das Gerät wieder zu verschließen. Eventuell müssen auch noch kleinere Bauteile vom alten auf das neue Ersatzteil übertragen werden. Schaue dir beide Displays genau an und stelle sicher, dass wirklich alle Bauteile vom alten auf das neue Display übertragen sind.
Was du brauchst
-
Schritt 1 Google Pixel 2 XL öffnen
Achtung: Die Schritte 1-12 stammen von einer Anleitung, die derzeit bearbeitet wird.
-
Setze einen Saugheber so nahe wie möglich an der Kante mit dem SIM Einschub an, vermeide aber den gebogenen Teil nahe der Kante.
-
-
-
Ziehe mit festem und konstanter Kraft am Saugheber und setze ein Plektrum zwischen Frontpanel und rückwärtigem Gehäuse ein.
Whatever happened to “Do not heat your phone. If needed, you can use a dropper or syringe to inject isopropyl alcohol (90+%) around the edges of the back cover to weaken the adhesive.”?
It is in concern with swollen batteries.
I spent an hour trying to get the glass screen apart from the body. I tried the hairdryer etc but made no progress. However, when I used a sucker to gently pull on the glass it was easy.
I used a heat gun, and the metal spatula in the iFixit kit. I broke the screen. Then, continuing with a blue plastic triangle, the screen continued to break. It seems to be quite brittle.
Never use metal tools on glass component

Just broke the screen as well. I’d say heat gun is a must, otherwise it’s really hard to slide pick at the top and bottom without breaking the screen. It’s a very thin line of glass over there.
I thought I did this perfectly. I used the iOpener to heat the glue, and the picks to slide around the screen to release the adhesive. I preformed the rest of the repair (charging assembly and the battery) with little issue. Just reassembled and the volume rocker side of the screen is white. I took less care on this side since the instructions said that you didn’t need to worry about how far the pick went in. NOT TRUE! There is a curvature to that edge that will push your pick up into the back of the unprotected display. It clearly doesn’t take much to damage it. I was so careful! F&CK!! I should have just created the e-waste and bought a new device. So mad!

-
Setze das Plektrum nicht tiefer als 6 mm an der Unterkante des Smartphones ein. Wenn das Plektrum den gefalteten Teil des OLED Panels trifft, kann das Display beschädigt werden.
-
Schneide nicht an der linken Kante, hier können empfindliche Displaykabel beschädigt werden.
-
Führe nur sehr flache Schnitte in der oberen linken Ecke, wenn du hier tiefer schneidest, kannst du die Frontkamera beschädigen.
-
-
-
Schiebe das Plektrum an der rechten Seite nach unten, um die Klebeverbindung am Display zu trennen.
-
-
-
Führe das Plektrum um die rechte untere Ecke und an der Unterkante des Smartphones entlang.
-
-
-
Setze das Plektrum dann wieder an der oberen rechten Ecke des Smartphones ein und schiebe es um die Ecke und entlang der Oberkante.
-
-
-
-
Hebe das Display an der rechten Seite vorsichtig an, so wie man ein Buch öffnet.
-
Lege das Display sorgfältig flach auf den Tisch, direkt neben das restliche Smartphone. Halte es so dicht wie möglich am Smartphone, um zu vermeiden, dass die Kabel des Displays und des Touchscreens zu sehr angespannt werden.
-
-
-
Heble mit der Ecke eines Plastiköffnungswerkzeugs die untere Kante der Abdeckung über dem Stecker am Touchscreen-Kabel hoch und löse sie ab.
-
Entferne die Abdeckung über dem Stecker.
Lol mine shot off and Ricocheted off the ceiling! Then landed on my shoulder haha
It literally popped me right in the middle of the forehead. My wife is still making fun of me.
Mine flew off while I was laughing you guys, never too be seen again: (
I decided to work outdoors, didn't read any comments first, so when mine flew off I found it five cursing minutes later in a crack on the driveway. Should have read the comments first! Thanks hamiltont. Will now read every comment BEFORE attempting step.
Confirmed, this $@$* can fly!
-
-
-
Hebe den Stecker am Touchscreenkabel mit der Spudgerspitze aus seinem Anschluss auf der Hauptplatine.
This small connector gave me fits getting it located correctly, is there a trick to getting it aligned since it’s difficult to see around edge of the connector?
-
-
-
Löse einen eventuell vorhandenen Aufkleber auf der Abdeckung des Displaysteckers mit einer Pinzette ab.
-
-
-
Setze die Spudgerspitze in das kleine Loch an der Kante der Abdeckung des Displaysteckers ein.
-
Hole die Abdeckung mit dem Spudger aus ihrer Vertiefung heraus.
-
Entferne die Abdeckung des Steckers.
-
-
-
Hebe den Displaykabelstecker mit dem flachen Ende des Spudgers aus seinem Anschluss heraus.
-
Entferne das Display.
BE EXTRA CAREFUL HERE, and during reassembly! There are 2 itty bitty parts directly under this ribbon cable connector that, if damaged, will render your loudspeaker unusable. The only sure way to fix it if you break it is to replace the motherboard. There are some reports of people being able to solder the spots and shorting it to make it work, and that worked for me for a time, but they’re really tiny (about 0.5 mm) and if you don’t get a secure solder, or if you bleed over, it will also mess up your top speaker.
Saw this comment after I’ve done replacing and sure enough, the loud speaker was broken. The resistor was knocked over but still hanging in place so I just stuck it back and it works for now.
They are 2 black resistors at the end of the cable’s connector. So follow the above photo exactly and pry the connector from the side, not from the end of the connector like I did
What wasn't clear to me here (because I didn't put Step 13 together with Step 12, I suppose?) is that if your replacement part came with speaker grills and camera gasket, Step 12 is your final step. You are done, except for replacing the cables and covers, then placing the adhesive strips onto the replacement part and sticking the phone back together.
I ordered my screen from iFixit and it came with new grills and camera gasket already installed. I was able to use the thinnest strips on the supplied Tesa patch to line the entire screen perimeter piecemeal, then stick it back together like new.

-
Möglicherweise wurde dein Ersatzdisplay nicht mit vorinstalliertem Lautsprechergittern oder der Frontkameradichtung ausgeliefert. In diesem Fall musst du diese Teile sorgfältig vom alten Display ablösen und mit Hilfe der Anleitung auf das neue Display übertragen
-
Beseitige alle Klebstoffreste von den Teilen, bevor du sie wieder einbaust.
-
Schneide einen etwa 3 cm langen Streifen des 1 mm breiten doppelseitigen Klebebands ab.
-
Lege den Klebestreifen entlang der Oberkante des Schlitzes für den Ohrhörer-Lautsprecher in dein neues Display, so dass er mittig über dem Schlitz liegt und mit der Oberkante abschließt.
-
Drücke den Klebestreifen vorsichtig mit den Fingern oder dem Spudger fest.
-
Ziehe den weißen Schutzstreifen von der Rückseite des Klebestreifens ab.
After “use tweezers to carefully remove these parts from your old display” - be sure to check the front of the grille. It’s easy to accidentally leave on the old grille adhesive. When you go to insert the old grill on top of your new tape in the display, you can accidentally stack up new tape + old tape + grille.
I soaked the old grilles in a 91% isopropyl solution for about 5min and then used an electronics wire brush (very small with a few strands of thin brassy wires). The old adhesive fell right off, and all of the built up dust has washed away. Tried using qtips at first, that was a huge mistake as the grill rips into the qtips and pulls off strands of cotton

-
Lege das Lautsprechergitter sanft in seinen Schlitz ab, so dass die vertiefte Hälfte des Gitters im Inneren des Schlitzes sitzt und die flache, erhöhte Hälfte des Gitters sich über dem Schlitz auf dem Kleber befindet. Drücke ihn noch nicht auf dem Kleber fest.
-
Drücke die Kanten des Gitters vorsichtig mit der Spudgerspitze gegen die Kanten des Schlitzes, so dass das Gitter in der Mitte des Schlitzes sitzt.
-
-
-
Drücke die obere Seite des Gitters mit dem flachen Ende des Spudgers gegen den Klebestreifen nach unten fest.
-
Wiederhole die letzten drei Schritte, um auch das untere Lautsprechergitter einzubauen.
-
Beim Einbau des unteren Lautsprechergitters musst du den Klebestreifen an der Unterkante des Lautsprecherschlitzes anbringen und das Gitter mit der flachen Hälfte unterhalb des Schlitzes befestigen.
-
-
-
Schneide von dem 1 mm breiten doppelseitigen Klebeband einen 6 mm langen Streifen ab.
-
Befestige den Streifen unterhalb der Kameraöffnung der Frontkamera parallel zur Oberkante des Displays.
-
Schneide von dem 1 mm breiten doppelseitigen Klebeband zwei 3 mm lange Streifen ab.
-
Befestige die Streifen links und rechts von der Kameraöffnung, senkrecht zum unteren Klebestreifen.
-
Drücke die Klebestreifen vorsichtig mit den Fingern oder dem flachen Ende des Spudgers am Display fest.
-
-
-
Lege die Dichtung der Frontkamera sorgfältig auf die Klebefläche ab.
-
Achte darauf, dass die Kameraöffnung zentriert auf der Dichtung liegt. Wenn die Dichtung die Kameraöffnung verdeckt, kann die Kamera nicht mehr funktionieren.
-
Drücke die Dichtung mit den Fingern oder dem Spudger auf den Kleber.
-
Vergleiche dein Ersatzteil mit dem Originalteil. Du musst vielleicht vor dem Zusammenbau fehlende Teile vom alten auf das neue Teil übertragen oder Schutzfolien vom Neuteil abziehen.
Um dein Gerät wieder zusammenzusetzen, folge den Schritten in umgekehrter Reihenfolge.

Be very careful on the bottom connection, if done incorrectly, 2 small components controlling bottom speaker are easily damaged, this will result in a motherboard replacement or replacing someones phone. Take it from me and a few others on the site…go at this slow and careful. Besides that risk, the phone is pretty simple to repair.
Hi Tom, what component are you talking about? I'm about to dive into this and it might be wise for me to doublecheck this prior to repairing it!
Showing where to place the new tape would be helpful.
Agreed. And also which one we need, is it the 1mm or others? Putting off my repair until I get this tape, going with the 1mm for now…
Is it correct in saying that you have to replace the screen and digitizer? You can not just replace the screen itself, correct?
That’s correct—the LCD and digitizer are fused and have to be removed as one unit.
I see sites selling just the screen and I assumed it was bogus. Thanks for the confirmation. Is there only that one company that sells it? The UBreakIFix site? https://goo.gl/VPg5oQ
I’m not sure of the best place to buy the screen, but I’m sure some other stores sell it as well. I would just read reviews and make sure you purchase from a reputable seller.
I found the instructions pretty helpful. For me the hardest parts were removing the screen since it was extensively cracked and the suction cup wouldn’t stick with tape, and removing the plastic covers without feeling like I was going to break the phone. The screen yielded with a heat gun and careful prying. I bought my screen from Witrigs and it came with 2 sets of adhesive stickers. Applying the sticker was a little challenging, but I succeeded with the second sticker.
My issues were also the cracked and shattered screen made removing all the adhesive tricky. I was a little wary because it seemed like there was still adhesive on the flat areas on the top and bottom, but after wiping it down with alcohol, applying the adhesive, and putting the screen on, everything holds very well. My adhesive was kind of stretchy, but I was able to get it to sit well enough. Some spots had to overlap because of the extra stretched length, but no noticeable gaps occurred from it.
Excellent guide, especially when followed with an I-opener tool kit… the adhesive that is suggested is a joy to work with (get the 1mm thick roll) i placed a single strip along each edge and another two small strips just on the far side of each speaker had zero issues lining up and there is no gap between new screen and the body. A+ repair guide, great tools. Happy phone.
My advice for shattered screen removal is to fix transparent tape or film over the screen to hold the splinters together before removal. Tried it and worked.
I have a question though please, there is a tiny rubber ring that is fixed under the screen in front of the front camera, what is it’s purpose?, would it’s absence affect my front camera photo quality someway?. I discovered the piece after replacing the screen, unfortunately the replacement screen did not include that.
My guess is that the ring keeps dust and debris off the front of the lens, and maybe helps stabilize it. It shouldn’t effect the function of the camera, but since the lens is not sealed against the front glass, dust might accumulate on the lens over time.
You keep saying lcd but is t it a oled display. Is your replacement the same or lcd?
Hi Danny, I misspoke in one of the above comments when I said LCD. Our replacement part is a P-OLED, the same as the stock screen.
So I live in the Louisiana heat and it kind of melted the adhesive off my old case and so I am in the business of buying a new one but I dropped it and I think the display cable just snapped out because there was no seen damages and then after a week of not wanting to take it an hour away (because google doesn’t like others &&^&^$^ with their phone) I found the tutorial (here) that shows the input behind the glass so I just pushed it back in and POW back to working
How do you get the digitizer display connector cover and display cable connector cover (step 8 and 9) back in? Do you have any tips on doing so? It’s pretty difficult
Hi James, there are a couple tabs around the edges of the rubber pieces that slot under the metal frame. I’d line up the biggest tab first and slot it into place, then press straight down on the rubber piece to snap the rest of it into place.
@adamocamb This may be a beginner question, but feels genuine, as @roanoke mentioned above if the glass and lcd/led panel are not easy to seperate, then, why are they selling these https://www.dhgate.com/product/50pcs-che... and How are people making use of them? Having said that, I don’t see the glass sold separately on ifixit.
Hi Richard, that’s a great question! Separating the digitizer from the OLED without breaking the OLED and correctly bonding a new digitizer to the OLED is very hard to do and requires a special machine. We try to make our guides and parts easy to use and cost-effective for the average fixer, and that repair is not something that we feel comfortable advising most people to do. I don’t know why DHgate sells that part or how many people successfully use it—it might be that professional repairers that already have the proper equipment are the only ones that order it. Hopes that help clarify things!
I know this might be nitpicky but steps 1 and 2 show the suction cup in totally different places and the instructions say that you should place it along the edge with the SIM but in the next picture it is shown on the total opposite side of the phone. So make sure you place it on the proper side!
Great tutorial! My phone works like new!
Best guide I have seen in a long time. Tight as!
Sounds like bullsh!t to me . I don’t known what affiliation this website has with the parts it links you too but this is a %#*@ joke.
200$ for the screen and I replace it myself? Do we live on the same planet?
and from a site who claims they are giving me power and saving me money and whatever.. you can BUY a refurbished pixel2 xl for 200$…. used for less than 140$. There are places offering to do job for more like half of what your advertising us to pay for a screen alone
this is just. Really shameful and pathetic .
Examples of where at those prices? None near me…
I tried changing the display for Pixel XL and it cracked like chips.
Does Pixel 2 XL has a reinforced display that it is easier to replace?
I think the pixel XL screen is impossible to replace without the separation machine.
The Pixel 2 XL does not have a reinforced display—the top glass and panel are unfortunately just as fragile as the original XL screens.
Crap I forgot to ensure the camera gasket was in place before putting my new screen on. Is this a huge deal?
Hi Thomas, it’s not necessarily a huge deal—you should be able to use the camera just fine. I think the worst that can happen with the gasket missing is that dust accumulates on the lens under the screen.
so i got my screen replacement order today but not sure what pre cut tape goes where? Is there more information for this?
Great guide, except some guidance on where to put the new screen adhesive would have been helpful. Just finished repairing my old pixel for my son to use for retro gaming, and he's super excited!
Shouldn’t this be “As close as possible to the volume rocker”?

Forget about the tiny toy suction cup they provide to battery replacement kits. I used a dent puller from an automotive shop. The smallest they had was just small enough for the Pixel's screen. I still needed to heat the edges with a heat gun.

I wish someone tell me in advance that if I doing this replacement after using phone for a few years it better to have spare "display adhesive" and be ready to follow Google Pixel 2 XL Displayklebestreifen anbringen
Original adhesive become dirty with time and fat chances it will be damaged during opening phase. In my case I replaced battery but can't use the phone, as still waiting for adhesive to be delivered
