HTC Incredible Droid LCD and Touch Screen Glass Digitizer Screen Repair Take Apart Guide:
- To begin taking apart your HTC Incredible Droid, you will need to first remove the backing and the battery. If you have any problems separating the two, you can use your open safe pry tool for assistance.
- Next, there will be four screws that need to be removed—one at each corner. Remove them using your small Phillips head screwdriver as shown in figure 1.
Figure 1
- There are clips between the glass and the backing that will need to be pried and released as you go. Using your open safe pry tool, you will gently release these clips. You may need to work the open safe pry tool gently back and forth to separate the two.
- Once you have released the clips, you should be able to easily raise the back cover of the phone. Set this aside along with your screws.
- Next you will need to remove the track pad from the bottom of the phone. To do this, use your open safe pry tool to release the jaw connector, as shown in figure 2. Then you can remove the track pad.
Figure 2
- You will now need to release three more jaw connectors to be able to release the ribbon cable. There are two on the sides, appearing as small pieces of flexible metal, and one on the bottom. Release these gently using your open safe pry tool, and then you can disconnect the ribbon cable beneath.
- Once the ribbon cable has been released, you can remove the two small screws that are holding the mother board in place using your Phillips screwdriver. These two screws are diagonal from each other, with one at the bottom left, and the other on the top right.
- Now that you have removed the two screws, you will be able to gently remove the mother board using your fingers, as shown in figure 3.

- Now you can begin to remove the LCD screen from the frame by removing the two small screws located at the top.
- Once you have removed these screws, you can remove the LCD screen by using your open safe pry tool to gently separate the frame from the screen, as pictured in figure 4.
