Follow this guide to remove and replace a broken screen for your Google Pixel 3 XL. '''***This procedure is for replacement screens that are not pre-mounted onto a frame.'''*** Due to the Pixel’s design, you will have to remove the back panel in order to disconnect the screen connector. | | | Before you begin this procedure, be sure to have a set of replacement adhesives for both the back panel and the screen. | | '''***This procedure will destructively remove the Pixel 3 XL’s screen.'''*** OLEDs cease to work when exposed to oxygen or moisture, and are thus sealed in an airtight encapsulation (this is also why OLED panels turn black underneath a screen crack). It is very difficult to replace the front glass alone— the Pixel’s OLED layers are laminated to the glass. |
