Disassembling a tablet often requires some gentle prying of the frame. Be sure to exercise care during these first few steps(disassembling), and do not lose your screws! The Paperwhite is a sturdy tablet that can be broken down into just a few components. This guide will show you how to replace a faulty screen.

My opening tool is orange. Will this still work for me?
I’m hoping to replace my screen with this part:
Kindle Paperwhite (2nd Gen) Display
Does this part include the mid-frame? I would like to avoid using the iOpener if possible.
Thank you!
Did this work Liam?
