Honor 9 Lite Touch Digitizer Replacement Process:

Tools Required:

1. Screwdriver Set (Pentalobe & Phillips screws): A set of small screwdrivers will be needed.
2. Plastic Pry Tools: For opening the phone without damaging the plastic or glass.
3. Suction Cup: To lift the screen gently.
4. Tweezers: For handling small components.
5. Heat Gun or Hair Dryer: To soften the adhesive.
6. Replacement Digitizer and Screen: Ensure you have the correct part for the Honor 9 Lite (size: 5.65 inches, 1080 x 2160 pixels).

Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Power Off the Phone:
   • Before starting, ensure the phone is turned off to avoid any electrical short circuits.
2. Remove the SIM Tray:
   • Use a SIM ejector tool to remove the SIM tray. This ensures that no components are damaged during the process.
3. Heat the Screen:
   • Use a heat gun or hair dryer to soften the adhesive holding the screen. Apply heat for about 1-2 minutes to make the adhesive more pliable.
4. Create a Gap Between the Screen and the Frame:
   • Use a suction cup near the edge of the screen to lift it gently. Once you create a small gap, use a plastic pry tool to carefully separate the screen from the phone frame. Be cautious of the cables connected to the screen.
5. Disconnect the Battery:
   • After the screen is separated, disconnect the battery to prevent any electrical mishaps. You may need to remove screws and use a plastic tool to lift the battery connector.
6. Remove the Screws and Detach the Screen Assembly:
   • Carefully remove any screws securing the display assembly to the frame. Afterward, use the pry tools to disconnect the display cables and remove the screen from the phone.
7. Replace the Digitizer:
   • With the screen removed, the digitizer (which is often fused to the glass and LCD) will need to be detached from the screen. This might involve further heating and separation techniques, especially if the digitizer is fused.
   • Place the new digitizer onto the screen assembly, ensuring it aligns correctly with the phone’s frame.
8. Reassemble the Phone:
   • Once the new digitizer is in place, reverse the disassembly steps to reassemble the phone. Reconnect the screen’s cable to the motherboard, secure the screws, and reconnect the battery.
9. Test the Screen:
   • Power on the phone and test the touch functionality of the new digitizer. Ensure there are no dead spots and that the screen is responsive.
10. Final Steps:
    • If everything is functioning correctly, secure the back cover and SIM tray, and you’re done.

Important Notes:

• The digitizer may be sold separately or as part of a combined assembly with the LCD. If it’s sold separately, you may need to carefully separate the digitizer from the display assembly without damaging other components.
• Ensure you buy a high-quality replacement digitizer to avoid issues with touch sensitivity or display performance.
