If your ZTE Maven smartphone (released in 2015) has a damaged or cracked midframe that’s affecting the device’s structural integrity, this guide will walk you through how to replace it and extend the phone’s usability.
The midframe serves as a central support for internal components and helps maintain the shape and durability of the phone. A compromised midframe can lead to poor fitment of parts, screen lifting, or long-term wear on internal hardware.
Before starting this repair, inspect the phone for signs of warping, cracks, or loose components that may indicate the midframe needs replacing. If the device still functions properly otherwise, replacing just the midframe can be a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to upgrading.
