2. Connect the new Pantalla táctil to the phone using the ribbon cables. Use the screwdriver and tweezers for this process.
3. Align the new screen with the phone's frame.
4. Gently press the screen into the frame until it is firmly in place. Some screens may require adhesive to secure them.
5. Turn on the phone to check that the new screen is working correctly.

Remember to take your time and handle the new screen carefully to prevent any damage.
