Step 1
– Alright, let’s tackle that shattered screen! First, cover it up with some tape to protect yourself and keep everything in place. Think of it like a little first-aid for your phone.
– Flip the phone over and give that battery door a little nudge. Once it’s off, the battery should be ready to come out too.
Step 2
– Grab your trusty Phillips and take out all 14 visible screws. We’re going in!
– Gently pop off the speaker component with your pry tool. Go slow and steady to keep it intact. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair
Step 3
– Grab your trusty pry tool and make your way around the edges of the phone, gently separating the rear assembly frame from the main device.
– The frame might try to trick you into thinking it’s stuck up top, but trust us! Focus your attention in the middle to find the magic spot for separation.
– Once you’re all set, go ahead and fully detach that rear assembly frame from the device like a pro!
Step 4
– Alright, let’s get this LCD flex cable outta there! Use a spudger or pry tool to gently lift it off the logic board.
– Next up, grab your trusty Phillips screwdriver and remove that lone screw holding the camera protection plate in place.
– Time to say hello (and goodbye) to the front camera! Go ahead and remove it.

Step 5
– Get ready to unlock your device’s screen by gently heating it up with a heat gun while using a pry tool to carefully work your way around the edges.
– Use at least 3 guitar picks to keep the screen separated from the device as you make your way around – it should start to lift off nicely. Remember to take your time and be patient.
– Save the bottom area for last and be careful not to damage the back cable with your tools. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair
