How to repair and disassemble glass cracks, cracks, and cracks on the iPad Mini 3
iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement and decomposition procedure 21 steps
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 1]
The lcd of the iPad Mini 3 has a two-layer structure, so if the LCD panel is broken only glass without problems, it is possible to replace parts by itself.
The way of breaking glass is different for each person, but the basic decomposition method is all the same, so if there are cracks, cracks, or cracks in the glass, I think that you can refer to it.
Be sure to turn off the power before disassembling!
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 2]
The liquid crystal glass is only stopped by a strong double-sided tape in the main body, and there is no screw at all.
However, because double-sided tape is very powerful, it is easy to disassemble by using the tool (heat gun) in the image.
Heat gun is a thing like a powerful dryer, and the internal double-sided tape is weakened by applying heat to the place which is enclosed in a red frame by this.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 3]
After applying heat, the liquid crystal is peeled off, but this decomposition uses a suction cup (orange tool) because the glass is not broken.
However, if the glass is broken, the only way is to peel off it little by little using a tool such as an iron spatula because it is not possible to use a suction cup.
If you insert a pick etc. in the place where the glass was able to float even a little, the work efficiency will be improved because it does not adhere again.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 4]
If it is able to peel off overall, it will be able to lift the glass.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 5]
When the glass is peeled off from the main body, it becomes such a state, but it cannot be removed because the connector is still connected internally.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 6]
To remove liquid crystal glass (digitizer), it is necessary to remove the liquid crystal panel in the decomposition process.
The red circle part of the image is a screw that secures the panel, so try to remove the Phillips screwdriver.
There is a gray sponge on the right side of the image, but when you peel it off, you can see the screw.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 7]
The screw above is on the upper side, but this is the lower side.
Depending on how the glass is peeled off, the screw may be hidden with tape or magnet, but I think that it is easy to understand because it is in the same part as the screw removed by STEP6.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 8]
It is a hidden screw.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 9]
Instead of removing the LCD panel as soon as the previous screw is removed, it is a place where black tape is peeled off using a tool though it peels off because it is stopped even with the tape.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 10]
The tape is peeled off in this way.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 11]
The tape above is on the left side, but let's peel off the tape in the same way!
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 12]
I was able to peel off the tape.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 13]
If four screws and tape can be peeled off, it will be possible to cause a liquid crystal panel, but be careful because it will crack if you try to cause a liquid crystal panel at once because light double-sided tape is attached to the side of the liquid crystal.
Insert a tool such as a spatula and try to wake it up little by little.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 14]
If you can completely cause the liquid crystal, please knock it down to the glass side as shown in the image.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 15]
The heat shield is drawn in this way under the panel above.
There is a small screw in the red circle part, so let's remove all!
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 16]
I was able to remove the heat shield.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 17]
The battery and the connector of the liquid crystal panel are hidden in this part.
Let's remove it because the iron plate can be removed when the screw of the red circle part can be removed!
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 18]
The connector is connected to the logic board, but be sure to remove it from 1.
1 is the connector part of the battery, but you can easily remove the connector from the logic board by lifting it from the bottom to the top.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 19]
The LCD panel could be removed.
[iPad Mini 3 LCD glass replacement STEP 20]
I think that I was able to find the red frame part as soon as I was able to remove the panel, but this part becomes a connector of the liquid crystal glass.
You can remove the connector if you try to lift from the bottom to the top.
