OPPO Find X5 Pro Screen Replacement – Step-by-Step Guide

OPPO Find X5 Pro Screen Replacement – From Broken to Brand New!

The OPPO Find X5 Pro is a powerful flagship phone with a stunning display. But like all smartphones, accidents happen — and a cracked or dead screen can make your device nearly unusable. Instead of sending it away for weeks of repair, you might be wondering: can I replace the screen myself?

In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process of replacing the OPPO Find X5 Pro screen with a frame assembly. By transferring the original components onto a new screen, the phone can be restored to almost factory condition.

🔧 Tools

Polar Tech Magic Self-Heating Pad
Polar Tech Phone Repair Toolkit (Isopropyl alcohol ,Metal shim, Plastic pry card, Tweezers, Spudger, Precision screwdriver set)

⚠️ Important: Phone repairs can be risky. Always disconnect the battery first, and if unsure, consider professional help.

🛠️ Step 1: Removing the Back Cover

Since this device had its back cover removed before, the process was easier. Normally, heat the edges with Polar Tech Magic Self-Heating Pad and gently pry open. If you encounter resistance, apply a few drops of alcohol to weaken the adhesive.

🛠️ Step 2: Disconnecting Components

Remove the motherboard bracket (10 screws).
Carefully lift the flash FPC — don’t pull it directly, flip it gently.
Disconnect the battery BTB connector, bending slightly to avoid short-circuiting.
Remove the loudspeaker (8 screws).
Disconnect the remaining BTBs and remove the SIM tray.
Pull the battery tab to remove the battery safely.
Disconnect the charging port FPC and vibration motor.
Unscrew the 3 motherboard screws, take out the front camera, then lift out the motherboard.
Don’t forget the earpiece — apply alcohol to remove it cleanly.

🛠️ Step 3: Installing the New Screen

With the old frame cleared, you can now transfer components onto the new screen:

Insert the motherboard at a slight angle and secure with 3 screws.
Reconnect the charging port FPC (make sure the fingerprint cable isn’t trapped).
Tilt the sub-board into place and connect both FPCs.
Snap the coaxial cable into position.
Reinstall rear cameras, then place the battery (but don’t connect the BTB yet).
Reinstall the front camera and check all BTB connections.
Reconnect the flash FPC.

🛠️ Step 4: Testing & Sealing

Power on and test the display and touch function before final assembly.
Once confirmed, tighten all 18 screws and install the new back cover.
For better sealing and dust resistance, use clamps to secure the phone for 2 hours.

🎯 Final Thoughts

Replacing the OPPO Find X5 Pro screen at home is possible if you have patience, the right tools, and some repair experience. The key steps are disconnecting components carefully, avoiding short-circuits when handling BTBs, and testing before sealing.

If you’re not comfortable with DIY repair, professional services remain the safest option. But for those who love hands-on work, this project is both satisfying and cost-saving.
