Introduction |
| Use this guide to replace a cracked or broken screen on your Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 5G. | | | If the frame is deformed, it's important to replace it to make sure the new screen will mount correctly and won’t suffer damage from uneven pressure. | | | Before disassembling your device, ***discharge the battery below 25%***. The battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured, but the chances of that happening are much lower if discharged. | | Due to the device’s design, you must remove the lithium-ion battery to access the display cables. If the battery was deformed during removal replace it with a new one—reusing a deformed battery is a potential safety hazard. | | | If your battery is swollen, [[What to do with a swollen battery|take appropriate precautions|new_window=true]]. For your safety, '''discharge your battery below 25%''' before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. | | | ***Note:*** This guide instructs you to replace only the screen while leaving the original frame and motherboard in place. However, some replacement screens for this phone come pre-installed in a new frame (a.k.a. chassis), which requires a very different procedure. Make sure you have the correct part before starting this guide. | | | You’ll need replacement adhesive to reattach components when reassembling the device. |
