Use this guide to replace a broken screen on your Nokia G310 5G.
This guide is written for the genuine Nokia G310 5G screen assembly. The assembly consists of the screen and midframe together as one part. Make sure you have the correct part before you begin this repair.
Note: This procedure requires transferring your phone's internals into the new assembly.
For your safety, turn on your phone and allow the battery to discharge below 25% before starting this procedure. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery looks puffy or swollen, take extra precautions.

Insert the flat end of a spudger into the small recess on the upper right side of the vibration motor.
-
Pivot the spudger up to pry up the vibration motor off of the adhesive securing it underneath.
I could not insert the flat end of the spudger into the small recess to remove the vibration motor. In the end I used a very small flat screwdriver to lift it up.
I used some sturdy tweezers to pull it up, you could also use needle-nosed pliers. As Gijsbert said, prying does not work.

Use the flat end of a spudger to disconnect the display cable by prying the connector straight up from its socket.
Upon re-assembly the display cable of the new assembly was somewhat longer than the old assembly, I could not reconnect it because there was a little bit too much strain on the cable while bending it. I had to remove the battery again (fortunately I had not applied pressure yet to glue it in place), so I recommend to install the battery after attaching the display cable.

Pry the motherboard up until you can grip it with your fingers.
There is a clip near the top right screw that the motherboard fits under. When re-assembling, make sure you fit this corner in under the clip first, or the motherboard sits on top of it and the screw ill not engage with the threads in the hole - the motherboard will sit proud by about 1mm.

After replacing the screen myself, the phone stopped receiving the network. I had to throw it away and buy a new phone. Waste of money for screen
Hello Igor, sorry to hear that you experienced issues following your repair. It sounds like the issue might have been caused by the antenna cable being damaged or disconnected. In these cases, we recommend physically reseating the connectors of the antenna cable on both motherboard and daughterboard as well as checking the cable and connectors for signs of damage. If this doesn't help, you can contact Nokia's phones support to get further support.
This worked like a charm! It wasn’t too frustrating and my phone is as good as new!
how can i remove the assemble, i broke my screen and cant find a guide on how to remove and replace the screen
Hi there! The replacement part in this case is the screen assembly, so not just the screen but the midframe and buttons. Therefore, the repair consists in moving the components to the new screen assembly without removing / replacing the screen itself. Hope this helps!
I ordered a screen + frame kit off Amazon but the new frame does not come with the power and volume buttons connector attached. Your guide does not show how to remove this part from the old frame and place it on a new one. Is this possible or should I buy a screen-only kit and attempt to attach it to the old frame?
Hi Daniel! The genuine replacement part available in the iFixit Store should include pre-installed buttons. Transferring the buttons is pretty finnicky and not generally recommended, but definitely possible. The buttons are held in place by adhesive that can potentially be reused for the new frame. Doing a screen-only repair would require a different procedure and application of heat and suction to remove the old screen.
Indeed, had the same issue. The buttons are mildly glued, so you can gently pull them off. Used a needle for it, there are small indents you can use.

Where does the Touchscreen electrically connect to?
This is a great how to. Assembly and tool kits had everything needed. Photos were clear with plenty of supplemental photos and materials. Replacing AA batteries in a remote is about the max tech repair I have ever done. I bought the G310 with self repair in mind because I am clumsy, but I was intimidated by the actual task. Thank you so much for making this enormously thorough and clear guide so a total tech novice could do it.
