TechSupport Cf20 Screen Replacement

Hi everyone, I have a couple of CF20’s, one that’s surplus, and one that looks brand new. The surplus one (CF-20A7012VM) has GPS but the screen is a little rough, while the brand new looking one (CF-20A0025VM) doesn’t have gps. Unfortunately, GPS is one of features I need out of the computer.

Is it possible to replace the screen on the Gps one with the screen from the non-gps model? Or is it possible to transfer the GPS components over to the other tablet? Or are these tablets not modular enough for that?

Transfer the GPS Module from the one to the other. It’s work for just 5-10 minutes not more. Wifi, GPS and SSD are on the backside under the Metal Plate of the back. Take a Look at the YouTube Channel from Bob Johnson.
