Tutorial: Step by step

Step 1 Take off screen

We start by removing the screen. To do this, first remove the two lower screws Pentalobe 0.8 (TS1). Then we will heat the screen to soften the adhesive which we will remove by sliding a flat tool around the contour of it.

Step 2 Disconnect screen

Remove the four Phillips screws (PH # 000) and the three triwing screws (Y0.6) that hold the shields and then disconnect the flex from the screen.

Step 3 Superior antenna

We remove the shields that cover the connectors and cameras. For this we will have to remove the four screws that hold them: a Phillips screw (PH000), two Triwing (Y0.6) and a standoff that we will find when removing the shielding of the connectors.

After removing the shielding, we just need to remove a Phillips screw (PH # 000) that holds the antenna and take it off.
