all right so here I have a moto X and I am replacing just the glass on it so I've already gone through and I've taken off the shattered screen just by heating it up to ninety degrees Celsius and then kind of just taking the a razor blade and sliding it very very very gently underneath the glass and pulling off each little shard you can try to use a wire piece if you want to slide underneath the glass but the way the frame sits it doesn't allow the wire to come out through that back side so basically what I've done now that the glass is out glass is also to wide when I set it over the top the glass is too wide to fit inside of the frame because the frame allows the glass to get tucked up underneath each little side so basically which is it's a little bit different than all of the Galaxy series which is what I'm used to fixing up to this point anyway what I found out is if you pop the back cover off you can take each of these little there's little pins inside of there that hold the white plastic onto the phone itself so I'm just going through and popping each of those little pins out this one's my next one right there and that'll will release the plastic frame so that I can tuck the glass up inside of it and then put it back down on the phone again there are also two screws down at the bottom that hold it in it's a t4 kind of a pentalobe type screw and then once those two screws are out and all those little pins are out then you can pop off that frame as you can see the glass still the phone still works without the glass in place so you know the digitizer and the LCD are still fine anyway so I'm going to take that glass go ahead and pop it in to the front side of this now that it's a little more pliable since it's outside of the phone and then once it's in I should be able to pop it right back down on top the phone and have it work the glass itself is just a little bit too big for the frame so what I went ahead and did is I broke this bottom corner right here so that I would be able to fit inside all of the edges so once I get it tacked back onto the phone again as far as like the white frame goes I'm going to put a dab of super glue right there on the end to hold it together and keep the dust out of it so I'm go ahead and clean the underside of the glass and clean the LCD on the phone and then plop it right back on top and I'm going to take some double-sided sticky tape which is this stuff right here and put it right here to kind of help adhere the the glass down to the phone there we go screens work in way better than the cracked one before I tried to put a little dab of super glue right there on that corner I mean it bled underneath the screen just a little bit but that doesn't affect any of the functionality of it anyway so it's not perfect you know it's not it's not like factory but it definitely is a lot cheaper to replace just the glass itself not bad for a twenty dollar repair it's a lot better than buying the whole LCD unit for about 250 online anyway if you any questions make sure to leave them in the comments below don't forget to like if this video helped you and don't forget to subscribe thanks for watching
