iFixit Screen Replace Pixel 7 Pro, what you REALLY need to know.

See how an amateur uses the iFixit Screen Replacement kit to replace the cracked screen on a Pixel 7 Pro. This is the first screen I have ever replaced on a phone and I think really shows you what to expect when using the kit.
Here is the link to the fingerprint reader recalibration site: pixelrepair.withgoogle.com/udfps

I'm so glad you used that "I Opener" before replacing the screen.

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hahaa 😉 yep me too.

[@marcusd25]

Thx for sharing, it helped me a lot. All the other videos have too much going on. ✌️

Thank you for posting this. It was a very big help and your video gave me the confidence to replace my broken screen. One thing I did, as I was removing the broken screen was inadvertently turn the phone back on. As the currently screen was further damaged, I wasn't able to tap the shut down button that is usually displayed on the screen. When it came time to test if the screen was working, it wouldn't show anything as the phone was already powered on. I later found that holding all 3 buttons on the side, the power and 2 volume buttons, for 20-30 seconds will power the phone off, without the need for the screen button way. I was then able to power the phone back on and see the screen working. Thought I's add this, just in case someone else finds themselves in that predicament. Thanks again for your video and a great example on the process that has helped me and many others.

Hi, thanks for watching and the comments. I’m glad you found the video helpful. That’s also some good information about shutting the phone down. I’m sure that’s happened to other people so thanks for sharing that. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate that!

Very nice video, simple to follow along with. But you make it look so easy.

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hi thanks for watching and the comments. It really wasn't hard to do. The plastic things included for removing the screen didn't work for me as you saw in the video. The razor blade did though. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. Thank you.

[@avkrpen]

@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS i did the same what workt so much better.

[@CarlMcGloughlin]

Nice video. Thanks for making it. I am going to try with my wife's Pixel 7a that got cracked. Will let you know how it goes.

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hi, thanks for watching and the comments. I'm not sure if the difference in the 7a compared to the 7 Pro. Probably the most important thing is to not go too deep with the guitar pick, or like in my case a razor blade. Also as you see in my video I didn't do it necessarily the correct way, but it still worked out. By all means let me know how yours goes. Either way thanks again. I think you may have already done so but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate that!

Excellent tutorial. Ifixit's instructions on their website suck. I took my screen off cold with a knife. Easiest screen to remove I've ever messed with. Thanks brother.

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Thank you for the comments!

[@kymaniwilson8363]

That’s how I always do it. Using a stencil knife makes it easy, no need for heat

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hi thanks for watching and the comments. Sometimes things can get overly complicated. Razor blade did well too. I think you may have already but if not please consider Subscribing and hitting the like. I would really appreciate it!

[@fritzlb]

The iopener joke was great :)

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hi, thanks for watching and the comments. I try to throw something funny in now and then and glad you liked it. If you haven't done so already please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate that!

Nice video. Did your fingerprint works properly??

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Yes, better than before actually. Thanks for watching and the comments! I appreciate it.

[@andrewsimineri2243]

Did you ever get the fingerprint scanner to work? Great Video. I ordered mine.

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hi, thanks for watching and the comments. Yes, I did get it to work, but I have never had any finger print scanner to work consistently. I think my old finger prints are distorted and hard to read. Either way thanks again for watching and if you haven't done so already please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I really do appreciate that as I try to grow my channel.

[@hirushawijethunga6314]

Hi, my pixel 7 pro bottom mic doesn't work after the screen replacement with the original display do u know why?

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hi, no I'm sorry I don't. If you can remove the screen again check the ribbon cables.

[@vasyavasya6823]

The same problem after screen replacement 😢

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Sorry, I wouldn't know why.

[@munkhbilegsainbayar7592]

Does it need factory reset or something after replacement? or all your data is still there?

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

No

[@Breedbaard]

The iFixit website has comprehensive guides for many types of repairs, including replacing the Pixel 7 pro screen. Those manuals are updated and users can leave their questions and comments. I think that's the core function of that website, it's almost impressive that you missed that, haha 😋. Anyway, thanks for sharing your video!

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hi, thanks for watching and the comments. The online instructions that I found were really incomplete. Using the guitar pick supplied with the kit, in my opinion would no way work to separate the screen from the case. I think sometimes they fudge a little to make the kits easier than they are. Either way, again I appreciate the feedback. If you haven't done so already please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate it.

[@Breedbaard]

@@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS Yes, I recognize that. In addition to that manual, I also watched a number of KZbin videos to get my questions answered and I noticed that they all had their own ways to arrive at the same outcome. Thank you for your answer and again for sharing your approach which is always worth appreciation 👍

[@HristosInAfrica]

Very 👍

[@NTS112]

I seen people add glue. Is that necessary??

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

I don't think so if you use the seal that comes with the kit.

[@kokonstant]

You forgot the black sticker over the front facing camera cutout. So did I 😅

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hi thanks for watching and the comments. No, I didn't forget it. But if you do you gotta take it back apart or not have a camera. Either way if you haven't done so already please consider Subscribing and hitting the like button. I would really appreciate it.

[@adamjensen1698]

I like the Black Lives Matter fist holding the wrench on the instructions

[@NINEPOINTFIVEPROJECTS]

Hi. Thanks for watching and the comments. Hahaha ! I never picked up on that. Thanks again!
