Are the 6 silver-colored screws holding the back cover on all the same length?
All of the screws are captive, meaning they don't come out of their holes. They are not all the same length, however, but since you can't lose them you don't need to worry about getting them back into the same holes.
The central screw has a different size.
Do you have instructions on replacing the lcd touch screen?
I have not any instructions about lcd touch screen replacement. Sorry.
