Introduction

During all steps, handle every component with care as they are very delicate electronic parts.

    • Using tweezers, gently lift the black tab locking the wire connecting the battery to the motherboard.

    • Pull wire from connector.

    • This is the only connection for the battery to the motherboard.

    • Remove the battery from the device.

    • Separating tool may be needed in order to lift battery from device.

    Please look at videos for your particular Tab A7. There are many different models. For mine I needed to use heat to soften the glue that holds the screen to the body. This very important step is not mentioned in this guide.

I found there was a layer of double-sided tape backing the battery, and I had to use a flathead screwdriver to get enough force to lever it up. This does not significantly change the guide.
