Exceptional specs and internal design for such a cheap phone.
how to open metal shield, because i want to check inside, there was a strange sound inside, thanks
To remove the metal shield, you need to use some violence. Once the metal shield remove, you cannot restore it.
This “remove the backcover with the finger nails” reminds me of the “draw the rest of the fucking owl” manual.
Can I replace the earpiece without removing the motherboard?
Yes I did 😉
Hello!
I recently replaced the screen on my Mi4c, and now the backlight for the menu capactitive button is in the wrong position. It’s about a centimeter above where it should be, and can be seen through the screen.
Does anybody know how to find this light, and get it back to the correct position?
Thank you!
Hello!!! I want to know about 8439 ic?
Hello,
I know it’s an old treat, but after having a new screen to replace, bought 3-4 years ago, I finally had the motivation to start a replacement. It was totally broken screen with loose glass pieces, even the plastic around the volume and on off button was broken one side.
No, I did 2 hours of work to replace the screen, in the beginning with opening and unscrew/undo MB of the device, a small white rubber (seems something from button-push peace) fell on the table. I cannot find any information where it comes from.
Does someone please know what I mean and know what it is and where it needs to sit in the frame?
Thank you very much.
I’m closing it, hopefully, it works without it. Fingers crossed, I’m scared to disassemble all again to get under MB.
