Google Pixel 10 Pro XL Screen Replacement

Unplug all cables and completely power down your phone.

Apply strips of packing tape to the cracked glass until the whole screen is covered—this will help keep the glass contained and allow the suction cup to stick to the screen.

Make sure there's a single strip (not overlapping) of tape across the top edge, big enough for a suction cup to fit on.

Use a hair dryer, heat gun, or heat pad to heat the entire screen until it's almost too hot to touch.

Apply a suction handle to the center of the screen's top edge, as close to the edge as possible.

Pull up on the suction handle with strong, steady force to create a gap between the screen and frame.

Insert the tip of an opening pick completely under the screen.

Slide the opening pick along the top edge to separate the adhesive.

Continue sliding the pick around the perimeter of the screen until all the adhesive has been separated, leaving picks inserted at the corners to prevent the adhesive from re‑sealing.

Flip the top edge of the screen over the bottom edge and use the suction handle to prop it up, so you have access to the screen cable connector.

Use your finger to press down firmly on the screen cable bracket and slide it away from the phone to unclip and remove it.

Use a spudger to pry up and disconnect the screen cable press connector.

Grip the screen cable just above its connector and gently peel it up.

Remove the screen.

Before installing adhesive, all the old adhesive must be completely removed from the frame.

Use the point of a spudger to remove all the old screen adhesive from the frame. Try to "roll" the adhesive onto itself so it balls up, making it easier to remove.

Wrap a microfiber or lint‑free cloth around a spudger.

Use the spudger and a drop of high‑concentration (>90%) isopropyl alcohol to clean up all the remaining adhesive residue from the frame, applying more drops of alcohol as necessary.

Let the alcohol dry completely before continuing.

The screen cable sticks up off the frame, making it difficult to apply new screen adhesive.

Use your fingers to push the screen cable down so it sits as flat to the frame as possible.

Hold the screen cable down with one hand, and with your free hand use a spudger to gently scrape up and remove the piece of adhesive on the screen cable, near the connector.

Hold the adhesive above the frame to find its orientation. Use cutouts in the liner and the contours of the adhesive to help visualize how it will lay in the frame.

Peel up the bottom half of the larger, clear liner to expose the adhesive—don't fully remove the liner yet.

With the larger, clear liner folded towards the top of the phone, lay the exposed bottom edge of the adhesive onto the frame.

Once the top edge is properly aligned, gently press down on the top corners to secure the adhesive.

Slowly lay the rest of the adhesive onto the frame, pressing it into place and peeling away the larger, clear liner as you go.

Use a spudger to press down firmly on the screen adhesive to secure it to the frame.

Slowly peel up and remove the larger colored liner, peeling from the cutout near the top edge.

Use a spudger to press down firmly on the screen adhesive to secure it to the frame.

Remove the larger, clear liner from the screen cable adhesive.

Place the adhesive onto the screen cable (just above the connector) and use the flat end of a spudger to press the adhesive into place.

Leave the remaining liner attached for now.

Check around the front facing camera cutout and near the bottom edge of the screen for liners or tape.

Use your fingers or tweezers to remove the plastic liners and tape near the front camera cutout and bottom of the screen.

Use a sturdy object to prop up the screen so you can reconnect its cable.

Remove the remaining liner from the screen cable adhesive.

Loop the screen cable around and use your fingers to reconnect the press connector, pressing on one side first and then the other.

Insert the small arm of the screen cable bracket into its slot next to the connector.

Press down on the bracket and slide it into place until it clicks, making sure the outer edge hooks into place.

Press the cable into place above the connector to secure it to the screen.

Flip the screen down and hold it above the frame.

Remove all remaining liners from the adhesive (either on the frame, or from the underside of the screen).

Firmly push the screen into place on the frame.

Hold your phone up and squeeze firmly around the perimeter to strengthen the adhesive bond.
