Tutorial: Step by step

Step 1 HOT GLASS

Insert the HOT GLASS in the microwave for the time specified in the instructions for use.

If you heat it too long, the gel inside will expand and the bag will be inflated until the content is poured.

The last minute in the microwave is advised to interrupt every 15 seconds and knead the gel inside with your hands to distribute the heat.

Step 2 Back cover.

Before starting make sure the phone is switched off.

For the equipment to be water resistant, the back cover is attached.

Apply heat for a few minutes to soften the glue.

Step 3

The cover is glued by an adhesive line that runs all the way around. Use the prong to detach it.

Step 4 Battery

Remove the adhesive covering the flex cable from the battery and disconnect it from the board.

Step 5

The battery is attached to the chassis. Pull a little of the white tape and finish separating it by pushing it from behind with the opening tool.

Step 6

Remove the battery without deforming it as it could be damaged.

Step 7 Bottom module (vibrator and speaker)

Remove the Phillips screw and the plastic part that covers the vibrator connector.

Step 8

Remove the lower module.

Step 9

Peel off the antenna connection plate of the lower module.

Step 10 Vibrator

Peel off and remove the vibrator with the tweezers.
