Step 1
First things first, let’s ensure your phone is powered down and ready for some TLC.
– Alright, let’s get this show on the road! Turn your phone over and take a peek at the back. You’ll see a little slot right by the charging port down at the bottom.
– Now, grab your handy dandy plastic opening tool (or your fingernail if you’re feeling adventurous) and give that back cover a little lift.
– Once you’ve got that corner loosened up, just slide your finger around the edge of the phone and watch the back cover pop right off. Easy peasy! If you’re struggling, remember, you can always schedule a repair
Step 2
– First things first, find that battery! It’s hiding in there.
– Next, take your trusty fingernail or a plastic opening tool. Slide it into the little slot at the bottom of the battery and give it a gentle lift. You’re doing great!
– Now, go ahead and pull that battery out. You’ve got this!
Step 3
– Grab your trusty Phillips head PH000 screwdriver and get ready to tackle those 13, 1.4 mm screws—time to make them disappear!
– With your handy pry tool in hand, gently work your magic to pop off the Digitizer cover. It’s like peeling a banana, but for your device!
– Now, use that pry tool to carefully disconnect the digitizer. You’re doing great—keep it up!
Step 4
Almost there, just be gentle and don’t fully remove the screen yet – keep it at an angle for now.
Make sure the buttons are coming loose from the adhesive, you’re doing great!
– Whoa-ho! Time to get that prying party started! Carefully slide that tool along the side of your device and work your way ’round to separate the screen from the backside frame, you scratchologist!
– Ooh, la, la! It’s time to use that heat gun to loosen things up a bit. Air things out and get those menu and back buttons ready to unglue! Whoohoo!
– Alrighty then, as the screen gets nice and toasty, take a moment of jollity and gently pull that screen upward. Don’t forget to give it a cheer, folks!
Step 5
– Next, carefully separate the screen from the phone’s outer frame, also known as the bezel. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair
