Google Pixel Tablet: Does this screen need to be replaced?

Sun, 14 Dec 2025 00:51:27 -0700

I wonder if this screen might be able to be repaired, and not necessarily replaced. Would it be worth it to take it off and reattach it to see if that fixes the problem, before I buy a new one?

Google Pixel Tablet: electrical connector for front sensor cable came off board-how to put

Sat, 12 Jul 2025 07:53:30 -0700

When reconnecting the front sensor cable, step 23 Google Pixel Tablet Screen Replacement, the white connector came off the board. I've been trying to get the pins on the connector to slide back into the board without success. It keeps sliding on top of the gold prongs that come out of the board. I see a space with prongs between the silver board and white connector in your image. https://guide-images.cdn.ifixit.com/igi/...

How was the connector affixed to the board?

Better yet what can I do to repair it? And why do you think the connector wouldn't slide into the prongs as they appear to do in the image. I've included a pic of the situation.

Thanks - jim

Google Pixel Tablet: Dark corner on screen

Tue, 11 Jun 2024 14:12:31 -0700

Brand new tablet in December. It was dropped and shattered the screen. Bought a new replacement screen from Ifixit and replaced. Worked great except for a dark corner. I was sent another screen suspecting the first was faulty. Still has the same problem. Could this be an issue with the display cable? Could it have been damaged when replacing the screen?

Google Pixel Tablet: Adaptive brightness sensor not working after replacing broken screen

Sat, 09 Mar 2024 05:59:38 -0700

While installing my replacement screen, I damaged the light sensor cable. With no instructions to follow, I swapped in the good cable from the broken screen. The connection seemed to be straightforward, but the sensor isn't functioning now.

If this cable is replaceable, clear instructions (and a replacement part option) would be helpful.

As an aside, reconnecting the screen cables is much more challenging than the instructions suggest (only describes as following the screen removal process in reverse, btw). In particular, a nice-to-have would be alternative guidance for left handed people, given the feasibility is directly impacted by the reconnection sequence.
