Remoção da tela

i replaced my pixel 7 screen, I noticed that my proximity sensor is no longer working, I have tried to calibrate it using 3rd part apps and it ddisnt work,i tried using developer settings to switch the proximity sensor and i also updated my android version...all these didnt work

If you can't power down your device because the screen is cracked (in my case, the AMOLED didn't light up at all anymore) and the touch is broken, you can also press power, volume up, and volume down all at the same time for 20-30 seconds. This will actually power off the phone, and not restart it (for that, you would hold the power button and volume up for a while).

I accidentally removed the screen from the safety frame. Thankfully, this wasn't a big issue since my screen was broken anyway. In that case, you can still easily pop up the frame, and carefully remove the remaining glue with some pliers afterward.

@hahalleman :

Great way to start the guide. Fills me with so much confidence in doing a $150 repair.

I think there is no need to be sarcastic. These people owe you nothing, and they created a 30-step guide to help us repair our stuff, so at least show a bit of gratitude.

If you miss something, you can politely ask. I'll teach you, since it seems you parents didn't:

"Can you please explain better how to insert the opening picks?"

You are welcome.

This guide is a bit all over the place. Most of the previous pictures show the iOpener being placed on the left side first (with the device having the camera facing upwards)

However this pictures shows placing the iOpener on the right side. Does it matter? Is there a best practice side to pry first?

I left my iOpener on the phone for a out 5 or more minutes, but the bag should have been hotter I think (I put it in the microwave about 35 seconds, 30 is recommended starting amount). I highly suggest making sure the phone is well heated before taking the screen off because I think that is the only way to make the adhesive easier to get off. I spent probably 30-45 minutes just scraping off adhesive with the tweezers.

If you're having trouble getting the first pick in, try a different hand position than what is shown. Grip the suction cup's handle with your index finger, and keep your thumb and middle finger on either side of the screen. Choose a forgiving surface underneath in case you slip. Then hold firmly and keep it stable (no need to really push down). Just be prying it open deliberately and evenly. Then take your pick and use gentle prodding, experimenting with your angle and pressure, feel around. That should be all you need to get in.

Heating is crucial - don't force the pick. If it feels hard to push through, stop, and reheat the edge you're working on.

The iOpener cools down too quickly. Ideally you should use a thermometer to monitor the temperature - the ideal temperature is around 55 Celsius. I found that I had to reheat the iOpener twice while working through the four sides of the phone. Each time I found the iOpener cool to around 40C (and no longer just a little too hot to the touch), and heated it back up for 10 seconds.

YMMV and read the iOpener safety instructions carefully.

This is the only slice that makes me nervous. Never had a problem, but yeah... extra care because of the camera.

The adhesive still sticking to the screen might trip you up... don't let it pull the screen in weird ways. Just pick that stuff off and the screen sits perfectly next to the phone, as pictured.

The way this piece is wedged in there can be a difficult to imagine, so you may need to apply force at a different angle than you expect. I bent mine a few times, but just bent it back into shape with no issue.

This was a pain to get out! Felt like I was going to rip the whole cable out. But it popped out eventually.

I found this much easier to remove than put it back.

If you insert the tweezers exactly as in the picture and push like suggested, it will come out.

I forgot to replace this the first time. It's not a dealbreaker (phone works fine without it), but if you ever open your phone again you must be super-extra careful -- nothing is securing the connection.

I bent the top of the bracket backwards by accident, but it released easier this way. Then I just bent the bracket back before putting it back.

Also, make sure you add the adhesive before plugging the new screen in.

Be careful not to hit any circuitry or jumpers in the process. They are so tiny that I did and now sound doesn't work on my bottom speaker. There's a YouTube video on this topic. Take your time!

Very easy to pull out but tricky to put back in place because it's difficult to align it with the socket that you barely see.

Use the iFixit Opening Tool and press gently on one side (left worked for me) until you don't see it moving anymore. There is no clear click when it's in place.
