OnePlus Nord N200 Battery Replacement

The suction tool may not work on the phone's rear glass due to its surface.

• Use a thin slicing tool (Jimmy) instead.
• Insert the Jimmy into the seam between the rear glass and midframe at the bottom edge of the phone.
• This may require some force.
• Leave the Jimmy in place for a few seconds to prevent adhesive resealing.

Insert an iFixit opening pick into the gap.

• Slide the Jimmy around the phone to slice the adhesive.
• Insert a second iFixit opening pick at the sliced spot.

Pry the back plate off the phone starting from the top edge.

• Insert an iFixit opening pick at the top edge and slide it down along the adhesive to slice it.
• Continue prying the back plate off the phone as you go.

Remove the back cover.

Remove the screws on the midframe using a Phillips #00 screwdriver.

• There are sixteen 3.6 mm-long screws to remove.
• Look for an orange circle marking a hidden screw that also needs to be removed.

Insert the Jimmy carefully to create a gap between the midframe and top components.

• Slide an opening pick around the edge of the midframe to cut through adhesive.
• Use the Jimmy to pry off the midframe from the phone.

Use your hands to carefully finish prying open the midframe.

Be cautious when handling the back tray as the fingerprint reader cable may still be connected and can be damaged if mishandled.

• Remove the midframe from the phone and place it to one side.

Insert a spudger or opening tool under the fingerprint cable connector's edge and pry straight up.

• Move the fingerprint reader cable to one side along with the midframe.

Remove the midframe.

Disconnect the battery from the charger before repair to avoid damage.

• Apply a spudger or opening pick under the connector's edge and pry straight up to release the battery.
• Pry carefully under the connector's edge, avoiding the socket on the board to prevent damage.

Work carefully to avoid damaging small components. Never touch sensitive parts.

• To reconnect:
• Align the connector over its socket and press down with your fingertip-first on one side, then the other, until it clicks into place.

Avoid pressing down on middle of wider connectors until fully seated to prevent damage or bending/breaking of pins.

• Insert an iFixit opening pick under the speaker assembly.
• Lift up the iFixit opening pick to gently pull out the speaker assembly from its tray.

If the speaker does not come out easily, check if a screw was missed.

Locate and detach the speaker assembly.

Do not risk damaging the socket — ensure prying is directly under the connector's edge.

• Position a spudger or an opening tool under the connector's edge.
• Pry straight up to disconnect the battery, taking care not to scrape nearby components.

Always start by disconnecting the black coaxial cable connector as it is safer first.

• Insert a thin, ESD-safe pry tool or angled tweezers under the metal neck, close to the head.
• Lift the head straight up from the board to avoid damaging the socket underneath.

Avoid damaging the socket by prying at an odd angle.

• Use a thin, ESD-safe pry tool or angled tweezers to lift the coaxial cable connector straight up from the board.
• To reconnect, hold the connector with tweezers over its socket and press down gently with your finger or a spudger.

Do not force the connector into place; it should "snap" into position when aligned correctly.

Insert the opening pick under either side of the I/O board.

• Pry under the I/O board using the opening pick or a spudger.
• Remove the I/O board from the case.

Remove the I/O board.

The tape may stick to surrounding components, be careful not to damage them.

Remove the black tape from around the battery.

Failure to do so may result in damage or obstruction during removal.

Grasp the red tab and pull it upwards.

Some force may be required due to the secure placement of the battery.

Disconnect and remove the battery.
