Introdução
Use this guide to open your iPad Mini 2 LTE and replace the display.
Parts of this guide were shot with a Wi-Fi model and as such the internals may look slightly different from the LTE model. The procedure is the same for both models except where noted.
O que você precisa
-
-
Fill a pot or pan with enough water to fully submerge an iOpener.
-
Heat the water to a boil. Turn off the heat.
-
Place an iOpener into the hot water for 2-3 minutes. Make sure the iOpener is fully submerged in the water.
-
Use tongs to extract the heated iOpener from the hot water.
-
Thoroughly dry the iOpener with a towel.
-
Your iOpener is ready for use! If you need to reheat the iOpener, heat the water to a boil, turn off the heat, and place the iOpener in the water for 2-3 minutes.
-
-
-
If your display glass is cracked, keep further breakage contained and prevent bodily harm during your repair by taping the glass.
-
Lay overlapping strips of clear packing tape over the iPad's display until the whole face is covered.
-
Do your best to follow the rest of the guide as described. However, once the glass is broken, it will likely continue to crack as you work, and you may need to use a metal prying tool to scoop the glass out.
-
-
-
Take the first pick you inserted and slide it up toward the top corner of the iPad.
-
If you can see the tip of the opening pick through the front glass, don't panic—just pull the pick out a little bit. Most likely, everything will be fine, but try to avoid this as it may deposit adhesive on the front of the LCD that is difficult to clean off.
-
-
-
-
Leave the opening pick in the iPad slightly past the front-facing camera.
-
Take a second pick and insert it to the left of the camera, where the first pick just was. Slide it back to the corner to completely cut any remaining adhesive.
-
Leave the second pick in place to prevent the corner adhesive from re-sealing as it cools.
-
-
-
Slide the lower left pick to the lower left corner to cut the adhesive on that corner.
-
Leave the pick at the corner. Do not pry any farther, and do not remove the pick from the iPad.
-
Antennas
-
Home button cavity
-
Digitizer cable
-
The following steps will direct you where to pry to avoid damage to these components. Only apply heat and pry where directed.
-
-
-
Remove the following Phillips #00 screws from the display cable bracket:
-
One 2.7 mm screw
-
Two 1.4 mm screws
-
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

OK, completed this, and all is working…whew! Props to the author for posting this, and it *does* cover getting the display out pretty thoroughly, BUT, it doesn’t cover a lot of things that you need to know when the whole thing goes back together - just saying “follow in reverse” to re-assemble doesn’t get it: What to do about all the adhesive? alcohol prep pads work well for removing all the gunk. What about the magnets attached to the screen (they come off when you clean up all the adhesive), they need to be placed correctly and held with adhesive.
You need new adhesive strips for this to all go back together well. Digitizer cable needs to be tucked in opposite the direction it naturally folds or the entire display won’t close up correctly. In short, it really takes sourcing three or four other repair videos to get through this correctly. Total process (remove and replace LCD screen) took about 2.5 hours.
