Tips below. I should have read the comments first and avoided breaking my ear speaker. Mine came off in three pieces and while I pressed them back together, I guess that doesn't actually work. ;-) Didn't realize it was gone until I read the comments below just now, four days later. Will have to order and replace, but at least don't have to go too far in and don't have to remove all 17 screws! ;-)

For anyone doing it the first time – it's a bit nervewracking. Hope observations below help (installed the screen with frame).

0:18 Keep screws separate throughout the process. Put the first two in a separate bowl or container from subsequent screws you'll be removing.

0:21 This wasn't immediately clear to me from watching, but the back cover is the flexible part. The main force with "spudger" is pushing it into the gap. I tried to pry a bit and broke my spudger. Got by.

0:47 Remove 17 (count 'em, 17!) screws. Take a picture or map out the screw colours on paper. They are different lengths and colour-coded. Keep these in a separate bowl.

1:16 Signal cable flexes are a bit finicky, particularly when reinstalling. Note that there's a guide clip for the wire just behind the contact at both ends.

1:30 ****See Emanuel Suceu's comments (should be pinned) re ear speaker. After my hassle with it, was going to suggest heat, and it sounds like it works. At that same point, you can see a blue circle to the left. I had what looked like a small, square mini circuit there. It was loose and just lifted out. I moved it to the new screen though I wasn't positive about orientation.

3:07 Kinda obvious, but I missed seeing him connect the screen flex, and of course, the screen wouldn't come on for test. A few moments of increased anxiety. For dolts like me, attach that before testing.

5:23 As mentioned below, replace the two screws removed at 1:19. This is missing in the video.

Thankyou for the great tutorial :-) Actually if it's okay... I would like to add a few tips for other people who are replacing their screen and cover.
If you can help it, don't remove the signal cable from the motherboard. Keep it attached to the bottom USB piece and remove it as one piece. Mine broke and I had to make something work with blu tack and some sponge.
Also at the bottom where the phone charges, a component was missed. There is a small part with an LED and a sticker (it is the notification LED). Make sure you remove that and put it on your new screen.
Also make sure you replace the 2 motherboard screws when re-assembling.. it was missed in the video.
Thanks again! Saved me $60 :)

Thank you for the video, everything worked fine and I changed the display.

Just a short remark: The two screws from 1:18 are missing in the assembling, the have to be put back around 5:23.

I've had zero experience taking anything apart phone wise and managed to do this just fine - Even managed to keep the ear piece in sound condition. Just have to be very careful - If parts don't move straight away then care is needed. I used the very small flat head screwdriver to wedge under glued parts. Cheers for the video.

I bought the oem screen with frame. Next to that I needed some prying tools, a heat gun, T2 (torx) and regular Philips screwdriver which I for the most part didn't have and cost me another 15 bucks altogether.

I didn't fancy prying the screen from the frame so settled for transplanting all inner parts to a new frame.
Took me in total 2 hours but I took it very slowly and first time for me doing a thing like this.
Snags along the way:
- both the ear speaker and vibrator removal took some heat, they were glued as well.
- When re-assembling don't forget the two tiny screws in the motherboard.

I used some cleaning alcohol to clean camera lenses to be sure before putting back cover back.
All seems to behave as new. Happy with the screen and end result.

Thanks Wit Rigs, you saved me a bundle

Thank you for your video.
I've just replaced my 2nd Pocophone screen.
Sometimes the back shell clings to the flash-LED and needs some prying and wiggling to come loose.

The motherboard cover does not come off easily - it has strong latches at the sides near the top.
When reinstalling the battery I use i-phone style (pull to loosen) strips.

[DerMarmotte]

Which method would you recommend? Replacing the whole frame seems to be more time consuming and you end up removing many small parts, but removing the screen only looks pretty difficult. Also will a hairdryer do the trick if I don't have a heat gun?

[jonathandavid]

Any replacement on the adhesive for the new screen or what do you suggest specific brand to use for adhesive on the new screen?

[stefangiurgila]

If I get new screen with frame. Do I need to use new thermal paste when assembling the mother board back??

[peNKku]

Ended up destroying my ear speaker thanks to this video... also re assembly you missed one step with motherboard screws

[mohdhasrulzulkifli]

does the liquid cooling system integrated with screen? which mean we need to get original screen if replace

[tishog]

Thanks for the really helpful video. A have replaced my screen and it is back to service now. I would recommend your help.

The only problem I have faced is that the CPU Temperature now always shows 16.7C while the battery is above 34C. Would you suggest where could be the problem?
Thanks.

Is the Poco f1 screen on ur website that is branded as original, is it tianma or ebbg screen?

[ParkourAYCE]

Do not replace only the glass, I bought a screen and it had a bad connector cable, and the screen would randomly not respond, and now I am buying one with a frame, I'll keep you updated on how that goes

[madshansen]

Where did you get the adhesive to glue/stick the screen back together again.. can't find it anywhere

[-The-Golden-God-]

0:33 I can't get into the side like that. I've been trying for half an hour with various tools and it won't budge.

Watched a different video and managed to do it. You skipped the part where you must've used a pick to loosen the edges. You also skipped many parts that require heat in order to soften glued areas.

Is the Pocophone Armoured Edition the same repair?

[ronaknishad]

What about led notification light is it built in display or not?

[elcoco]

Which kind of tape do you use between the battery and the frame? I broke the original one that came with the phone so I did not put any tape at all. Now I am getting a lot of the "ghost touch" problem which I suspect is due to static. Would kapton tape do the job?
