Step 2. Remove the tray
First of all, we need to remove the card tray. Please note that the microphone hole is located next to the card tray.
We gently push out the card tray.
â ī¸ī¸ If the tray does not come out well, we can additionally use tweezers.
Step 3. Open the back cover
We need to heat the surface of the back cover to approximately 70 degrees Celsius or 160 degrees Fahrenheit. For this we use a heating mat, you can use a hair dryer.
And after 5 to 7 minutes, we can move on to detaching the back cover.
To detach the back cover, we first use a thin metal tool to lift the back cover slightly, because we have the back cover recessed into the middle cover. Gently lift it up, insert a thin plastic film into the hole and then use the thin plastic film to cut off the adhesive backing and thus detach the back cover.
â ī¸ī¸ As always, we need to be careful in the camera area so that we don't accidentally damage the lenses.
We have only the gasket presented on the back cover.
Step 4. Unscrew the screws
After that, we move on to unscrewing the nine black screws on the top part. For this we use a 1.5 mm Phillips screwdriver or Philips #000.
Step 5. Unscrew one screw
We also have to unscrew the one silver screw. For this we also use a 1.5 mm Phillips screwdriver or Philips #000.
â ī¸ī¸ If the screws are not coming out well, we can use a magnetizer.
â ī¸ī¸ If the screws get stuck, we can additionally use tweezers.
Step 6. Open the cover
And after removing the screws, we can move on to detaching the top cover.
We find the right place where we can hook, lift and remove the cover.
Step 7. Disconnect the battery connector
Then with a non-metallic tool we disconnect the two battery connectors.
âšī¸ī¸ The Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro 5G 2312DRA50G model has a battery BM5V with a capacity of 5100 mAh (also known as a rechargeable battery).
â ī¸ī¸ It is highly recommended to disconnect the connector to avoid possible short circuits during disassembly.
Step 8. Unscrew the screws
And we can move on to removing the eight screws of the bottom part. To unscrew the screws, we also use a one and a half millimeter Phillips screwdriver or Philips #000.
Step 9. Disconnect the connector
We can remove the connector bracket, and disconnect the inter-board cable connector.
Step 10. Remove the loudspeaker
After that we can disconnect the cover with the loudspeaker.
Carefully hook and lift the cover.
â ī¸ī¸ Please note that in the cover with the speaker we also have a small antenna board. So, we need to detach the loudspeaker cover and disconnect the coaxial cable that is attached to this small board and a motherboard.
Step 11. Remove the loudspeaker
Then we disconnect the fingerprint sensor connector, disconnect the connector of the second coaxial cable, and release the cable itself.
If we haven't disconnected the inter-board cable connector earlier, now is the time to do so.
Step 12. Remove the daughterboard
And we can move on to detaching the sub-board.
Still in the same way, we need to find the right place where we can carefully lift the sub-board. Gently pry it up, as we can see the sub-board is slightly recessed and remove it.
On the sub-board we have the charging port, microphone and on the back side a card connector.
Step 13. Disconnect the connectors
And we move on to disconnecting the board-to-board cable connector, disconnecting the display cable connector and disconnecting the second coaxial cable connector on the motherboard.
Step 15. Remove the front camera
Now we have to detach the front camera. Please note that this model has a bracket on the camera connector.
First, we detach the bracket, disconnect the front camera connector and then we detach the front camera itself.
Step 16. Remove the cameras
Then we can detach the remaining rear cameras.
â ī¸ī¸ It's better to hold the cameras slightly so that they don't accidentally fly out and we don't damage the lenses.
â ī¸ī¸ We also need to pay attention that the cameras may be glued by the base to the display frame.
â ī¸ī¸ So, we need to be really careful not to accidentally damage anything when detaching the cameras.
Step 17. Remove the motherboard
And we can detach the motherboard.
We still need to find a place where we can pry to lift and remove the motherboard.
We make sure that nothing is in our way, neither cables nor connectors, carefully lift and remove the motherboard.
On the motherboard we have a second microphone, headset port.
Step 18. Remove the battery
And we move on to detaching the battery.
Traditionally, we have two brown tabs, which we need to unfold, read the description, in what sequence and what exactly we should pull.
As we understand from the description - we have to unfold the tab that is located in the middle to the side, and the tab that is located on the edges should be pulled upwards.
Under the battery there is a transparent protective coating protecting the inter-board cables.
Step 19. In the display frame remained
âšī¸ī¸ In the display frame remained: the earpiece speaker, fingerprint sensor, vibration motor, and cables.
