Use goo gone and a playing card,you might need about 10 cards and a cloth towel to clean up the rest

good day yes you do have to remove the front glass and a litle warning, be very carefull with that process, the lcd screen is very fragile the best way to do it is to heat the glass with a hair dryer and slowly insert a razor blade between the glass and digitizer *** it should come off easely*** do not force it to come off... start from the top corner if you need more info you can always go on youtube to see how it's done good luck

The adhesive will hold the touch screen to the LCD screen. You have to pry the touch screen off of the LCD screen when you replace it. Hope this helps.

I would actually spend the extra money and get the LCD as well. We tried with just the glass and ruined all the pixels trying to get the glue off. Save yourself the hours of frustration and spend the extra 40.00

If your lcd is broken then yes this is what you need. Becareful when removing the screen in front of lcd -- you'll need a heat gun to warm up glue to make t easier to take off and can melt edges as well as crack it. It's hard to do with out experience

There is no adhesive needed. The glass is already cured to the lcd / digitizer. It simply screws in.

Aha... Yes! There are a few videos on YouTube, but all you need to do is use a hair dryer to warm up the screen and start slowly picking off glass pieces. It is a lot of work!! I usually keep the phone on so I can keep checking to make sure the lcd is still okay. Use guitar picks to slowly separate... Keep it warm with the hair dryer! After the glass is off you need to remove the glue... Do NOT use googone!!!! I use a contact cleaner with a q-tip.

It doesn't come with adhesive.The LCD is slight off if adhesive not used properly.

Hmm if it is the full screen with glass and digitizer and everything then you shouldn't need any glue. The experience I have with these is always buy the complete screen 100% easier and stress free. Just simply dissemble the old phone and then reassemble around the new screen set up

Glass digitizer-- will fix as long as you didn't break the LCD under the glass. I also used a heat gun.

If nothing else works try Vitamin E Oil - use your fingers to smooth on the screen. Like New!

Hey, I still haven't attempted mine, however, my friend does fix them for a living and he told me its easier to buy the whole LCD w/glass, that if you try removing glass wrong it'll snap the LCD board if you don't use a heating pad like repair shops use. He said just buying the glass is a money scheme though, that's why I haven't tried mine yet

The glass (digitizer) is glued into the plastic Kindle frame. To remove it, you have to heat it up with a hair dryer or heat gun. This replacement digitizer + LCD has glue on it already and you just have to peel off the tape covering the glue and then stick it in the frame. You should not need to purchase any additional glue or double-sided tape of any sort.

Mine shattered and luckily the original screen was perfect! We used a razor blade and gently scraped it off. It was easy.

I am no expert, but you would need the tools required to pull the glass, clean the LCD surface, then the special UV Loca glue (really messy stuff), then apply the prokit for a nice fit, rub out air bubbles, then place in direct sunlight for 30-60 min to harden the Loca glue, wipe things down and you are good to go. Many youtube videos out there showing how the process is completed. Good luck.

I had to use the outside portion of the adhesive and throw out the middle section. Everytime I place the adhesive over the screen the film was visible as well as a multitude of bubbles, no matter how much care I used. Use tweezers to help position the sticker, working from one end down the side then other side and finally the last end. Use razor blade to start to remove paper backing.
