Introduzione
This guide demonstrates how to replace the screen in your 2022 Motorola Moto G Stylus 5G with a genuine Motorola part.
Note: This procedure is for a screen that's pre-installed in a new frame (a.k.a. chassis). You'll need to transplant all of your phone's internals to the new screen.
Before you begin, download the Rescue and Smart Assistant app to backup your device and diagnose whether your problem is software or hardware related.

This is a decent guide. I'm going to attempt to do this repair myself. I did it successfully twice on my Samsung Note 9 which seemed a lot less complicated but we will see. Thanks for the clearly written guide with plenty of pics, side notes, and for not bashing alternative products and methods and actually adding them in as options. This is a one of a kind guide so far in my book. You should write all guides for everything. All others should be removed from the internet.
Good luck with your repair! Thank you for the kind feedback.
When I removed the motherboard I notice a white paste-type substance on the frame. is it important if so what is it so I could find a replacement?
Hi James,
The substance is a light coating of thermal paste. While this guide doesn't mandate that you replace it, you can check this guide out for general instructions. For context, thermal paste helps dissipate heat from the motherboard to larger components on the phone. It won't affect your phone's functionality, but is preferred to keep it cool.
Hello, looking for
Troubleshooting tips. I replaced the screen and now it will not power up. The repair went good and I have tried to double check the connections. One difference I did notice is this phone did not have the 5 g antenna mentioned in the guide. But I have bought a 5g screen. Also noticed a cable seed to be broke when opening it
