Step 1

– Take a look at the back panel of your phone and locate that sneaky little slot on the upper left side, right next to the flashlight. Got it?

– Now, grab your trusty fingernail or a prying tool, and gently wiggle it into that slot. Lift it up just enough to get the top left corner of the back panel to pop open a bit.

– Once you’ve got that corner lifted, slide your fingernail or prying tool all around the outer edge of the back panel. Keep it steady! You’re getting close to fully releasing it from your phone.

Step 2

Hey, heads up! The NFC antenna is glued to the battery, so make sure your replacement includes a new one too. No worries, you got this! If you need help, you can always schedule a repair.

Before diving into the repair fun, make sure your device is switched off. Let’s keep it safe and sound!

– Find the little slot at the bottom of the battery and give it a gentle poke with your thumb.

– Now, give it a slight push towards the battery and pull it out, away from the phone, to set that battery free!

Step 3

– To get started, locate the slot next to the flashlight on your device. Now, take your trusty fingernail or a prying tool and gently insert it into the slot. Work your way around the perimeter, lifting carefully, until the back panel is completely removed. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair

Step 4

Don’t forget, the NFC antenna comes with the battery, so make sure your replacement does too!

Before you start, make sure your device is completely powered down – it’s an important safety step to avoid any potential risks.

– Find the slot at the bottom of the battery and give it a little nudge with your thumb.

– Now, push up towards the battery while gently lifting it up and away. This will release it from the slot.

Step 5

This step is a bit of a detour if you’re just swapping out the screen. Feel free to skip this one and jump right to the screen replacement. But if you’re digging deeper, this step is your gateway to other parts of your device!

– Grab a JIS #000 screwdriver and let’s tackle those twelve 3mm screws that are hanging out around the back of your phone. It’s time to show them who’s boss!

Step 6

– Heat your iOpener in the microwave for 30 seconds – it’s time to get this repair started!

– Place the iOpener on the front screen and move it around to make sure all parts are heated evenly. You’re doing great!

– After a few heating cycles, you’re ready to move on to the next step. Keep it up!

– Make sure the screen is thoroughly heated before moving forward. The more heat cycles, the easier the removal will be. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair
