ZTE Maven 2 Screen Replacement

Introduction

Go to step 1 ↓

This guide will show you how to remove and replace the screen on your ZTE Maven 2. The screen is used to interact with the phone system interface and perform the majority of phone functions. You may need to replace your screen if the current screen is damaged or unresponsive even after attempting other troubleshooting techniques, such as performing a software update, performing a soft reset, or performing a hard reset (for more information, visit our troubleshooting page).

To remove and replace, follow the listed steps. Note that the component left after removing everything else is the screen, and this is what needs to be replaced.
