Nexus 4 Bad Screen

Mein Problem

Backlight was coming on. You can feel haptic feedback but there was no picture. Hooked up to my Debian box and factory reset via adb. Still no joy.

Meine Reparatur

The toolkit has everything I needed for the job of disassembling the device. I will however purchase another style of opening tool for the sake of diversity. The disassembly took mere minutes with the toolkit. I particularly like the tray to keep all the small parts in order.

Mein Rat

Watch the videos before taking apart the device if you're new. If you're replacing the front frame assembly make sure to take the parts you need off the old frame, power/volume buttons, rubber grommets for mic and proximity sensors, LED diffuser tape, etc.
