VIVO Y17S, Y22, Y22S, Y28 5G DISPLAY Replacement Guide

Within the budget categories, VIVO has introduced models such as the VIVO Y17S, Y22, Y22S, and most recently, the Y28 5G. Although highly functional and state-of-the-art, like all other smartphones, it is susceptible to damage such as display degradation from falls, bumps, or simply aging. Therefore, this could be the right moment for a replacement with a working screen if you have experienced this-a broken or non-functioning display.

In this article, we're going to cover everything one needs to know when replacing displays for these models, from troubleshooting through the steps of replacement to new screen care. Understanding the VIVO Y Series Display Technology

These are high-end VIVO models that come equipped with LCD or AMOLED for clear viewing, good color brightness, and responsive touch screens. In these phones, the touchscreen combination integrates the display screen and the touch sensor into one unit; thus, in case either the glass or the responsiveness of the touch goes bad, usually the entire combo is changed.

VIVO Y17S Display Features

The VIVO Y17S sported a vibrant 6.35-inch HD+ LCD display, giving rather decent clarity and colour for media consumption and day-to-day use.

VIVO Y22 and Y22S Display Features

The VIVO Y22 and Y22S sported a 6.55-inch HD+ display, designed in the quest to balance power efficiency with immersive visuals. Both have fairly moderate brightness and decent color accuracy for their price bracket.

VIVO Y28 5G Display Features

The VIVO Y28 5G ups the ante with a larger 6.5-inch HD+ display and the addition of 5G, with seamless visuals and fast refresh rates perfect for gaming and multimedia experiences.

Common Display Problems in the VIVO Y Series

Following are some more problems that the users of these VIVO Y17S, Y22, Y22S, and Y28 5G could develop over time:

1. Cracked or Shattered Screen

One of the most common is a screen that cracks or shatters, mostly resulting from incorrect falling or impacts. This not only affects the aesthetic of your phone but can also make it impossible to use it through touchscreen.

1.  Unresponsive Touch

The digitizer is at fault when your touchscreen stops responding to touches. Problems could rise gradually until they make the use of the phone difficult, either trying to navigate or access any application. 3. Display Glitches

Damaged LCD or AMOLED signs are dead pixels, screen flickering, or areas of a screen not lighting up correctly. Sometimes your display issues might increase over time and get worse by resulting in complete display failure.

Water Damage

Even the display and touch sensitivity of a splash-resistant phone could be an issue if the device has been exposed to liquids. Water damage could result in ghost touches or erratic behavior on the display touch combo.

• 5. Touch Lag

Another potential causes of lags between your touch and what happens on the phone could be wear on the display touch combo. Sometimes it makes simple tasks infuriating because of that fact and decreases the overall experience of using the device itself.

When to Replace Your VIVO Display

If any of the above problems persist, then you should consider replacing the display of your VIVO Y17S, Y22, Y22S, or Y28 5G. This is what you should look out for to know that the display should be replaced:

• There are visible cracks, or the screen is shattered, making it unusable.
• The screen display is completely unresponsive even after a reboot or software update.
• The display malfunctions with consistent flickering or dead pixels.

Steps to Replace the VIVO Y17S, Y22, Y22S, Y28 5G Display Note: This guide is mainly applicable for these models, and steps may vary depending on your exact model. 1. Prepare the Tools Required Before starting the replacement, ensure you have the following tools prepared: New VIVO display touch combo for whatever model you are replacing. Precision screwdrivers. Suction cup or heat gun-to loosen up the adhesive (optional). Plastic prying tools. Adhesive strips. 2. Switch Off the Device

Always switch off your phone before any replacement process to prevent electrical problems. This is for your safety and to protect the internal components of your phone.

3. Remove the Back Cover

Carefully remove the back cover with either the suction cup or the prying tool from your VIVO device. If it happens to be well sealed, then slightly heating it with a hot air gun can try to remove it, which would reduce some amount of adhesiveness in the seal. Be very gentle to avoid damaging the back panel.

4. Disconnect the Battery

Once the back cover has been removed, locate and disconnect the battery cable. This is quite a critical move that ensures the phone is totally powered off and also to avoid a short circuit during the process of changing the display.

5. Remove the Damaged Display

Carefully pry the old damaged display touch combo from the device using a plastic prying tool. Screens are usually attached to a device with adhesives, so work your way around carefully and methodically to not damage internal components of the device. If needed, you may use a heat gun to soften the adhesives.

6. Install the New Display

Once the old display has been removed, align the new VIVO display touch combo with your phone's frame. Make it firm and secure. Secure the new display using the provided adhesive strips.

7. Reattach the Battery and Test Display

Reconnect the battery and turn the device back on before sealing the phone all the way. Test the new display and touchscreen to make sure it works correctly. Check for dead spots on the screen, and ensure the touch is smooth.

8. Seal the Phone

Once you have ensured that the new display works, carefully attach the back cover to your phone. Press it gently down around the edges to secure it properly.

Tips to Extend Your New Display's Life

After replacement of your VIVO Y17S, Y22, Y22S, or Y28 5G display, good care will extend the life of the screen and avoid any other damage that might happen in the future. Tips include the following:

1. Apply a Screen Protector

One of the surest ways to protect your new display against cracks and scratches is to install a tempered glass screen protector. This extra layer absorbs the shocks from drops and bumps, saving your phone's screen from potential damage.

2. Get a Durable Case

A sturdy, shock-resistant case with raised edges around the screen will help in reducing the possibility of any cracks and screen damage in case the phone is dropped accidentally. Consider those that come with built-in screen protectors for added protection.

3. Keep Your Phone Away from Liquids

Water can cause considerable damage to your new display and touch sensors. Avoid water damage in your phone by keeping it away from liquids, and get a waterproof case if you need to.

4. Avoid Direct Sunlight

This is because excess exposure to direct sunlight may weaken the adhesive holding the display in place to the frame, therefore causing malfunction. Avoid exposing your phone for long periods in extremely hot environments.

Conclusion

Replacing the display touch combo in your VIVO Y17S, Y22, Y22S, or Y28 5G might restore functionality to your phone. While daunting, these steps outline how to replace a phone's display touch combo oneself, or one may take it to a technician who will do the work.
