Tue, 05 May 2026 01:17:12 -0700

I have a Google Pixel 8 that has the green screen and vertical line issue. Will a new Google Pixel 8 Screen - Genuine purchased from IFIXT remove this issue and not show it in the future?

I read it is an issue with the screens that were installed in the first models, so I want o make sure I'm purchasing a good one.

Google Pixel 8: Knocked smd component off board by usb-c port

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 08:52:07 -0700

I was wondering if anyone has a schematic for the smd components near the usb-c charging port. It sounds like I may have knocked a tvs diode off of the board when trying to reinsert the board into the chassis ( I was prying near the usb-c and saw something fly off lol). Now the phone has a question mark next to the battery when charging. With the screen removed the smd component would have been on the top surface of the board rather than towards the back of the phone. Any help would be appreciated. I don't know where to get this type of schematic from if they are even available.

During my battery replacement with the ifixit kit, on the removing the old battery step, the little band you use to seasaw motion the battery out ripped. I had to use a combo of alcohol, and the prying guitar pick things. It worked but i cut the power button flex cable in the process.

Now I'm looking to replace the power button flex cable. Any help would be appreciated.

Google Pixel 8: Wifi/BT won't work after screen replacement

Tue, 07 Oct 2025 08:25:05 -0700

They both "toggle" on, but Wifi doesn't see any networks and both toggle back off after a few seconds. Nothing is greyed out.

Install of replacement screen went very smooth, no damage. There is some slight tearing on the plastic of the battery, might that cause issues with the ground plane in the screen?

I've been switching SIM cards a lot lately, and the last time I tried to eject my SIM tray, the top part of the tray broke. Now, when I try to eject it, only a small piece of plastic comes out. The SIM card and the rest of the tray are stuck inside my phone.

Google Pixel 8: Unable to recalibrate fingerprint sensor with replacement screen.

Wed, 11 Dec 2024 12:57:49 -0700

I purchased a replacement screen from here (they do come with a new fingerprint sensor) and followed the teardown and reassembly to a tee. When I try to use the fingerprint sensor on my new screen, it gives me an error saying, "Can't use fingerprint sensor with no further information.

The end of the repair guide has just one line that says, "Follow this guide to calibrate the fingerprint sensor" which then links to the Google USB Drivers Pixel Repair UDFPS page. I have followed all these instructions as well. When I get to the "select the "Install software" button" step, what I see diverges from the guide. The only options I'm given is to reinstall android and factory reset my device. There is no calibration step and no calibration software I'm presented with.

Any idea what may have changed or how to fix this?

Replaced my Pixel 8 screen after it fell hard. Screen seems to be attached fine, to both the motherboard and the phone casing, but it still isn't working properly. It comes up wicked glitchy, to the point of not functioning at all.
