GoPro Teardown Tips - 7 Repair Part II
After my GoPro Touchscreen cracked, i needed to repair it. Follow me on my repair adventure by watching part I, where i show how i took it apart,
and now this is part II where i got the front display yesterday.
I glued it in with silicone. Within the next days, i expect the touch screen to arrive, and i will record part III.
Most of this video explains what to look for when putting the camera together, and from that you'll learn how to take it apart without damaging anything.
For the models 5, 6, 7, and maybe even 8 and never, i see that the best advice i can give is to just take it as a given that you have to destroy the faceplate of the camera in order to get inside, and or to replace the rear touchscreen.
Make sure you don't damage the main case. I also do not recommend a heat gun on the front display. I think it is not necessary. The faceplate is glued to the main metal frame/heat sink with what i believe is some epoxy material that doesn't soften when heated. Therefore it doesn't make sense to heat up the camera. This kind of glue has to be removed mechanically.
As for the rear touch screen, i recommend to tape over it first. I used Kapton® tape for that, just in case you want to use a heat gun, and then it is relatively easy to break the glass all the way and take the screen out.
The glass that sticks to the glued areas can then be removed mechanically again.
