Introduction
Replacing the motherboard will take a good amount of time. Before replacing the motherboard, you will need to unplug the entire antenna and take out the battery.
What you need
-
-
Use your fingernail to gently pry off the phone's back cover at the indicated location. While your fingernail is under the back cover slide your finger around the edges of the phone until the cover pops off.
-
-
-
Remove the thirteen black screws and the single silver screw from the back of the phone with a JIS size 00 screwdriver.
-
The black screws are 2.8 mm in length.
-
The silver screw is 5.5 mm in length.
The screw next to the camera with the sticker on (top middle on screen) was T4 not J00

-
-
Take the speaker out of the back of the phone. It should come out easily as soon as the inner back is removed because nothing is holding it down in place anymore.
-
-
-
Use a plastic opening tool to gently pry up both ends of the antenna.
-
Carefully remove the antenna wire from the plastic keepers along the side. Note their position for reassembly.

Suggest rotating the phone in your hand to better access the ribbon cables?

Yes. I destroyed a motherboard like this. I guess that is what I get for listening to only one instruction.

There are four black plastic retainers, two on each side, that keep the motherboard fix in place. To get the motherboard out, stick a plastic opening tool under one top corner of the motherboard and carefully lift upward using a small amount of force to pop this side of the motherboard out of the plastic retainers.

-
Once one side of the motherboard is out of the black plastic retainers, remove the whole motherboard from the phone.

Hi!I
After replacing the complete appliance front but the unit turns on but nothing appears on the screen, what may have happened?
Check if the screen ribbon cable is firmly attached to the motherboard. If it is you may have a faulty motherboard replaced or a faulty screen

Is there a reliable source to buy a motherboard you can suggest? I need to replace the audio jack. Thank you for the neat guide.
On my unit the problem is not the audio jack itself but the soldering point that is broken. I contacted Asus for the part and they don't want to sell it...
