Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓If your Nokia 6 (identified with model number TA-1025) phone screen is not displaying properly, use this guide to replace your midframe. It’s a simple process and can be done fairly quickly.
You may need to replace your midframe if it is bent or is preventing you from using your screen in a functional manner.
Step 3 of this guide requires you to use a heat gun tool used to loosen the adhesive attached to the display. Read the directions and wear proper protective gear to avoid burning yourself.
Before starting your repair process, be sure to power off your phone completely and disconnect it from any external power source.
