Roku 4 Ethernet Port Replacement

Place the Roku 4 face-down on a table. The rubber sticker should be facing you.

Starting at one corner of the device, pull the rubber sticker back toward the opposite corner of the device carefully to reveal the underlying screws.

Completely remove the rubber sticker to reveal the underlying screws on the device.

Turn the Phillips PH1 screwdriver counterclockwise to unscrew all 4 of the 12.0 mm screws.

Turn the device over so you can see the "4" on the top cover.

Wedge a plastic opening tool into the seam between the top cover and bottom casing of the device and create a gap.

After you have created a gap large enough to fit your fingers between, gently lift up the top cover to open the device and reveal the motherboard.

To begin removing the motherboard from the plastic casing, pinch the black plastic clip and gently pull upward.

Once you feel the motherboard begin to loosen from the plastic casing, pull it upward to remove it completely.

Peel back the black adhesive strip that attaches the blue wire to the motherboard.

Repeat this step for the strip that attaches the black and red wires to the motherboard.

Using a soldering iron, desolder the blue, red, and black wires from the motherboard.

Lay the motherboard facedown on the table so you can see the large black ethernet port with several gold connections below it.

Use a soldering iron to desolder each of the ethernet port's connections to the motherboard.

Using your thumb and pointer finger, carefully pinch the Ethernet port and pull it to the right, away from the motherboard, to remove it.
