Had to change my battery - great instructions. Had the whole thing done in about 15 minutes. Phone powered up perfectly, calibrated the battery and charging it now! Thanks!!
your welcome :)
What's you do with the old broken battery?
Great video. I replaced my battery tonight with the help of this video and a few others.
Glad it was able to help you :)
Thumbs up for your work
One of the most awesomeness phones ever made and they couldn't waterproof it? Man is truly imperfect in this world, i tell ya!
Yes! It's a shame - just burried mine because of water.
Man I hate how they make you jump through hoops just to replace the battery. I miss the old days of just poping the back off to change the battery.
yea, at least they should make it so you can open the compartment where the battery is and disconnect it from the board rather than having to tear apart the entire phone
i agree
you just saved me a $500 repair thank you!
anytime :)
Good vid bro. Am going to try to replace my battery, have never done it! Wish me well. :D
Thank you, wish you good luck!
great video thanks ..for the info
Thanks, your welcome :)
unique way of dissasembly. i never have seen a dissassembly guide w/o removal of the back case 😄
freaking poor design if u ask me, almost stripping the whole phone
Thank you
and do you have to take off the top antenna for a battery replacement
thanks bro, brasilian view
Thank you!
if i want to Replace the back glass panel i have to start removing the screen?
The battery just went on mine. I got caught in the rain and that was it. What do you recommend?
Hello, at 3:16 i can remove the P2 connector? or before i need to remove the mainboard?
hello, very good video, can you tell me what kind of torx screwdriver did you use? Thank you
Thanks. They are T4 Torx Screws so a T4 Torx Screwdriver.
My USB slot is damaged, so that the phone will not always charge (it depends how I angle the charge cable). It's still usable though, but I wonder if I should try to fix it. Does it worth it? Can one find the spare part easily?
thank you very much, looks so easy but i'm afraid to do that :/
Do you know the price of the display?
I've seen them on ebay around $160 or so
Mine is getting fairly hot right below the powerbutton. What is sitting there?
mine has a broken battery it does not turn on but I can put it in recovery mode and do stuff on that plz help
hi pwrdbykyank,
if I want to replace or clean my volume/power button, do I need to remove the battery and access the mainboard?
thanks ! :-)
Hi yes, you would need to remove the battery, then remove the main board to have access to removing the power button etc.
hey, quick question, my phone fell, it worked for about a week after it fell, then the first time i shut it down and it started up, the screen was messed up, i could get notifications and it still took my fingerprint, but whenever i "logged in" it would just show some random pixels that would light up for a second, is this LCD based, meaning i just need to buy a new LCD screen, or is this something worse?
Well when you turn the phone on, at any point does the screen work? or even from the boot up process you dont see anything? If you dont see anything at all at any time on the screen (normal picture etc.) then it could either be your screen or the cable maybe got loose from its place. Check cable first, if doesnt help then you may need new screen. But if the phone shows picture then once its fully on doesnt show anymore, it would be a software or main board issue
pwrdbykyank sorry for taking forever, but do you know of anywhere I can get the screens/Leds cheap? At amazon it costs 135$ dollars at its cheapest, which seems expensive since used Moro z play phones only cost like 200$
they run about $109 on ebay, but thats as cheap as you will find it for now.
There are certainly significant differences between this and the other Z phones. Thank you for making this disassembly video. Do you know if the headphone jack is replaceable? Also, can one carefully replace the battery without taking out the top part of the phone?
No problem, and yes the headphone jack is replaceable. You would need to remove the screen to gain access to the battery.
That's good to know. It looks like its soldered on like the USB-C port. I was concerned at first, but it's good to hear that it's easy to replace...Unless the headphone jack is soldered.
No its not soldered on :)
does moto z play back has plastic film which can be peeled off
Hi there, is it possible to replace the glass only on the screen? I know it can be delicate but I'm still curious. Thanks!
Yea it would be with the right tools and machines but not for an end user.
viisxal_vk look in this video repair the glass of the screen in a professional way th-cam.com/video/aCs5PWPYDo8/w-d-xo.html
That's how I've seen other cover glass repair done, too. Heated base plate, clamps, thin metal wire, industrial solvents and cleaners, liquid OCA. Definitely not equipment most laypeople have.
Could be bad part, but anyone had no display after repair? phone boots up and shows on pc, no image at all tho. New part, and everything from OG screen transfered over to new screen, tape on top lcd/digi flex
can you do a video removing the back glass
is camera glass can be replaced?
Hey, how do I do if the SIM sslot bay is stuck? Do i remove the screen and push it out?
Ya you can do that just make sure not to damage the sim reader pins underneath. You don't want to break them if they are jammed somehow
so is there will be any prob when charging or playing heavy games for too much... cuz it gets heated up.. especially while charging...
will the screen will come out..?
No because that heat is not as hot as the heat from a heat gun. The heat gun can burn through your skin, but your phone will not do that. But yea say you let your phone in your car on a hot summer day for long hours you can possibly cause the screen adhesive to loosen up but not to a point that it would fall off, if you pried on it then it would come off.
+pwrdbykyank - okay... Tysm :)
So do you not have to worry about needing to re-apply anything once you need to reassemble it?
You're probably going to need new adhesive for the screen to adhere it back to the frame. I'm sure precut adhesive for this phone is available on ebay or amazon etc.
There's gotta be a way to design these phones for more user friendly battery replaced. Something like the Moto e4 or Huawei Mate 9 for example.
So I have the Moto Z Play xt 1635-02 but it won't power on, there's a little white led comes on sometimes, I push the power button and there's a little jolt sort of thing. Other than that nothing .... ??? Any idea's...?
maybe water damage. Not sure
how do I replace my camera glass. do I need to take the whole thing apart to change it?
Its held on with adhesive so you can just pry it off without taking the phone apart
I recently had my screen replaced on my Moto Z Play, and the repair shop I brought it to can't seem to figure out why the camera corner is not laying flush with the frame. any ideas for why this is happening?
It can be many things, if you are referring to the front facing cam, maybe the plastic bracket that holds the ear speaker hasn't been pushed in all the way to click down in place, or something is stuck under it.
pwrdbykyank Thank you!
Hey, I guess I'm screwed if I peeled off all the adhesive that holds the screen? I cracked my screen, so it became a mess to take off the screen assembly, and most of the adhesive is pulled off.
no you can just buy new adhesive online from say ebay or elsewhere and cut the adhesive to size and apply the new adhesive.
Thanks man, I'll look into it.
I think I have water damage because my camera and my LED are disabled after a shower. Would you know where I could find a replacement part for that?
By the way, I much appreciate the clarity of steps in this video. I'm really, really angry I damaged my phone, but that shouldn't mean your hard work should go unnoticed.
Hi, have you tried taking it apart and using a brush like a tooth brush to brush off any corrosion or water residue off the chips or connectors to see if the camera and LED will work again? Most likely corrosion build up around the chips is whats preventing it from working. As for getting new parts, I would say ebay would be your best bet.
Thanks :)
I fell into a pond with my phone in my pocket. (it has a case that covers every hole but the speaker hole) it will not turn on and the screen is black. when i hold the power button it will vibrate slightly. i am looking for a way to find out what needs replacement in the phone. PLZ help.
Your best bet is not to try to turn it on and damage it worse. You will need to disassemble the phone and disconnect the battery and clean out any liquid inside and clean all the connectors and chips with a brush like a tooth brush or something and make sure there is no corrosion left over. After you cleaned it out you can try power it on again and see if it works, if not then you might have a bad screen or main board.
I didnt realize my phone was still on while trying to replace the screen. Black screen, sometimes it turns on as white/gray dots. Power button gives a vibrate when pushed. Think I fried the mobo?
No, even though its always safe to first disconnect the battery, on moto phones, I have personally disconnected the screens first on hundreds of these phones and never had any issue. Try disconnecting the battery, and taking the screen cable out and making sure its clean, putting it back the battery n screen again and seeing if it works. If not maybe you damaged the screen cable or screen itself but again, taking out the screen first while on shouldn't give you an issue.
Hey! Thanks very much for your help! Much appreciated. Subbed!
Anytime, :) thanks!
Im going to replace my screen with a new LCD and glass screen it comes pre assembled. However it doesnt come with the fingerprint scanner. How do I removed the finger print scanner and put it on the new screen?
Just peel/pull it off from the original screen and place it on the new one. Its just put on with a little adhesive
I haven't even started watching this video but my Moto Z Play has developed a slight crack on the edge of the screen with hairline crows feet fractures (hardly noticeable). I ebayed a replacement LCD screen, how hard is it to replace the LCD only ? this is the screen LCD Unit I bought from ebay, will it be easy to replace ?

I think that they sent me the wrong tools. I seem to be stripping the screws. Please help♥
I don't have to glue the screen?
if the screws are stripping, use one size larger and press down into the screw while unscrewing so it will limit the chance of it stripping
I saw plastic fly at 3:18, that wasnt put back. What did you break?
It looks like a metal screw for the bottom plastic cover that he forgot to put aside. Nothing should be broken from there.
Is it possible to break AMOLED without any physical damage to Gorilla Glass. My phone went blank without any scratch, brake or damage. Here service center says it is user fault and it is not under warranty? How it is possible to damage AMOLED without any visible damage to phone itself?
Hay guy! I have a moto z play and i also have a not damaged glas, but my screen is in the right top left and it wont show anything... what happens with your phone?
After a serious e mail traffic with Lenovo Turkey, they finally agreed to have it checked by another service center. I sent the phone today to service center, hopefully I am going to get a good news. This looks definitely a fabrication problem. I have seen a good amount of Moto Z Play users are complaining about it and it mostly occurs in a week or a month. İnterestingly enough, only Lenovo Turkey denies that it is a fabrication problem, most of other users have it replaced under warranty.
It has been resolved by Lenovo. They accepted to repair it under warranty.
my phone's display is damaged and need to replace but in mumbai specially i am nt getting moto z play parts
where can i get in india or in mumbai..
T21C eBay
I broke the back glass could i start from the back and heat up the edge of the back instead of going all the way through
ya, you would be able to replace the glass that way but nothing else since you won't have access to any of the internals from the back
John Myers hey can you provide me a link to buy the back panel..i broke it too
Respekt
👍
Is it okay if I throw my litium ion phone battery in the trash?? I have to because I can't go to any throw to recycle it or anything.
Carriers (like verizon, tmobile etc) or stores like best buy offer recycling for those.
help ASAP I need a screen replacement and I can't find anywhere on eBay or anything for Moto Z play droissonly Moto Z droid and their flash is on opposite side I don't think it would work
Arcadia PvP This listing on eBay says it's for Moto z play. Item number on eBay is 232131306286. You can also search Moto z play xt1635 LCD should pop up
Hey, anybody knows the name of the shiny small square component located just near the battery connector? After repair i somehow got a crack on it and phone stopped charging.
can you screenshot and upload it online somewhere and send me the link so I can see. I don't see what your talking about, and wow this video is such bad quality I did back in the day lol. Now with 4K things are much more clear.
@@PBKreviews thank you for replying. Here are the photos. The component is the one with the broken edge. In real life it is shiny and grey and nothing written on it. It is near the battery connector (yellow thing).

Hi, sorry I got to reply to the comment late. It looks like those links have expired. Can you re upload the pics and let me know? Send me a comment with the links to my newest video upload so it will notify me of your comment.
hey PBK.
i have a problem with my moto z play XT1635. it can't read a sim card. what can i do now and can you make a video guide about repair sim card reader. maybe that's can help me to repair my phone.
Hi, you can watch this video done by someone else which shows the steps to do after you have taken the screen off etc. to get the sim reader replaced. Just scroll to 4:12 in the video. th-cam.com/video/D74hwDYkiwg/w-d-xo.html
i don't see any connector between the sim reader and motherboard. can you tell me where is that. is that under motherbord or no? because i do not want broke my phone.
Any suggestions on the type of adhesive I should get ?
You can use Eco-Fused Adhesive Sticker Tape or any adhesive for cell phone repair should work
Wow, thank you so much for the fast reply.
anytime :)
Probably should have mentioned the exact thickness to purchase. For my XT1650-03, 2mm was perfect.
Does it really work with a hair dryer?
Yes, I just did it but a heat gun may be a little faster.
Can you tell me where from i bye a moto z play motherboard....?
Best bet would be on ebay
What adhesive is used on screen ??
Hi the link for replacement adhesive is in the description of the video. Its not the same exact adhesive but that's a commonly used adhesive which is stronger then many other ones
where is the WiFi Antenna located?
Mine had six T3 screws.
this phone vs note edge ? which one better ?
I prefer motorola over samsung
Did you say 64 screws?!?!?!
Mario I/O T4 screws lol
pwrdbykyank Ahahahaha! :) Ok, I was ready to set a new world record for the number of screws in a smartphone. Cool video, anyway!
The T4 size was too large. T3 worked fine for every screw except one. The screw became stripped. I can only assume the Motorola uses cheap parts for their cheap phones.
I understood 64 too hahaha It was not a good news hahaha
Actually the Motorola Nexus 6 (Xt1103) has about two dozens screws in its frame. I still don't get it why some companies glue in the screen without simple access from the rear of the phone. As much as some dislike Apple, we must give it to them how easily serviceable iPhones are (just two screws).
my moto z play is dead..what is solution for this problem
Priyanka Chouhan i have a solution contact 9993169267
Priyanka Chouhan i am buying ur mobile display 1500/- indian rupees

I have dropped my phone from the table and the screen became totally black, with a scratch in the screen. What I am getting only is the green light blinking.
Please suggest me any solution....
Thank You
Prasun Parihar you probably got a hairline crack in the screen underneath so you would need to replace the screen.
Thank you so much for your response and solution.
No problem :)
my moto z play was dropped into sea water... and i accidentally power it on moments after the dunk. now it is not turning on.. I have tried dipping it into a 70% isopropyl alcohol.. still it wont turn on and the led blinks while plugged in.. i dont know what to do anymore.. please anyone help me.
I wouldn't suggest putting it in any alcohol or any chemical. Most likely you trying to power it on fried chips on the board. The best thing to do when phone contacts water is to remove any electricity (battery etc.) and open phone up to clean it with a brush and let it dry. You can still try to open it up and clean all the corrosion inside, but most likely your board is damaged beyond repair.
pwrdbykyank Hey mines go wet when i went through a water sprinkler. It comes on to a bot laying on its back with options but i can't get it to safe mode. Only reboot options that doesn't work.
Plus it doesn't work without the power cord connected. Please help. My contacts haven't switched over to my new phone and i don't know why.
Hi if it goes to that screen, either your software went bad meaning you lost your info most likely, or there is a battery issue (leaning toward this since it wont work without charger you said) or some other electrical problem. If you really need your stuff I would say first, open the phone up, clean the inside of any corrosion with a brush, and put it back together see if it works, if not replace the battery and then see if it works. If still nothing your last resort would be to try a system restore, you can watch this video I will link to see how its done. th-cam.com/video/D3Dn3yFQ5zM/w-d-xo.html
A very common problem is that the USB port becomes VERY loose. Can they be replaced?
I've had this happen to mine before. It may just be some lint really stuck in there so swing by a repair shop and they may help for free/little cost
can you show how to change the screen only and not the lcd of moto z play
What do you mean? You would need to buy a complete screen assembly and just watch this video to replace the screen.
thank you for replying i wanted to replace only the glass because the display touch is working and u get the glass on ebay very cheap
nikhil konnur its not possible to do that without having special tools etc. plus would never come out the same as having it completely replaced. touch will be off and you will have dust etc. plus big chance of breaking screen
My phone fall into a pool and now it won't turn on. What do I do?
Regis Oliveira you can open up the phone and clean out any leftover water and brush off corrosion from the chips n connectors and see if you can get it working again
pwrdbykyank I'd like to replace the back/metal frame. how many more parts do you need to take off after the battery to get to the frame? Thanks
You would have to take out everything, the board, the small parts and battery etc. and move it over to the new frame.
Pools have chlorine in them, which is highly corrosive to most metals. Your phone is fscked.
Mine has a bad battery
sadly this is only a lcd repair guide. i was misled by the title. i need to see how the moto mod port lines up. next time you say its a teardown video, make sure its actually a tear down.
It has been resolved by Lenovo. They accepted to repair it under warranty.

Best link ever.
Anyone else not able to reinstall the fingerprint ribbon cable???
try installing the ribbon cable first for the finger print then as you fold the screen down a bit, place it in the slot in the screen
What do you do if the the thing that holds the ribbon comes up as well
broh plz do a screen replacement video 😁
This video pretty much shows how to do it, you just open it like shown in video and disconnect the screen cable and put the new screen on etc.
I haven't even started watching this video but my Moto Z Play has developed a slight crack on the edge of the screen with hairline crows feet fractures (hardly noticeable). I ebayed a replacement LCD screen, how hard is it to replace the LCD only ? this is the screen LCD Unit I bought from ebay, will it be easy to replace ?

Hi shouldn't be difficult, you will need to put new adhesive if it doesn't come installed on the screen already. Just remove the old screen as shown in the video and add adhesive to the inside frame where the old was (first remove the old adhesive) then connect the cables etc and install the screen back in place. Also don't forget you will need to remove the fingerprint sensor from the old one by prying it off (its held on with adhesive) and installing it on the new one.
When you say 'adhesive' what type ? not superglue right ? not thin double sticky tape ? you got any amazon links for the adhesive types for the fingerprint and other components that you could recommend please.
Thanks in advance.
you would need 3m black cellphone adhesive, they sell it in different widths and so forth. Both ebay and amazon would have it. No dont use super glue
T4 Torx!? Huh... I read T2 but that's obviously wrong!
3:17 u break battery connector lol
No he didn't. That's a flex connector. It's fine.
Anyone sell moto z play screen
panel hoga
hmmmm
Fake
worst disasembly ever!
Better than Zack's. At least PBK shows it successfully turning on at the end.
