Step 2 Back case

To remove the back cover we will use a plastic tool, this way we will avoid damage to the phone.

Step 3 Battery

We can use the same tool to help us remove the battery.

Step 4 Sim and microSD cards

We will remove the SIM and micro SD cards by pulling them. If necessary we can use tweezers or another tool.

Step 5 Housing screws

It may seem angry, but deep down our monster ... he likes us to take pictures! While holding the phone, we show you where the screws are.

In the second photo we can see that a sticker covers one of the screws. That does not happen to you!

In any case, we still can not remove the inner shell. There is another hidden screw that will force us to remove the lower cover.

Step 6

To remove the lower cover we will remove the screws from the bottom of the mobile. This will reveal the last screw of the inner casing.

Step 7 Intermediate housing

We will use a fine tool. Carefully we will pry into the notches that hold the housing.

Step 8 base plate screws

The motherboard can not be removed completely without desoldering the volume buttons. We will avoid desoldering them whenever possible.

We will disconnect the flex from the touch screen of the plate, previously lifting the fastening tab.

We will also remove the adhesive that covers one of the screws on the plate.

Step 9

Now we just have to disengage the power button and remove the chassis vibrator to lift the plate, but not quite. Before lifting it, we recommend to see the next step.

Step 10

In this step we show you two connectors. One we show how to disconnect it easily. The other, the one below in the image, in case it does not disconnect only when lifting the plate, we can disconnect it before any other connector. Although with the plate put in its place can hardly be seen, you can access it with some tool.

Step 11 Take off digitizer flex

As we showed in the first photo, the volume button flex is still connected. From here we must proceed with care when we move the phone to avoid breaking this flex.

We will take off the flex the touch screen to avoid that it breaks when taking off the screen. Now we recommend holding the plate with at least one screw to avoid damaging the flex of the volume buttons.

Step 12 Heat screen

In the next step we will need to heat the glass to soften the glue and thus be able to remove the screen more easily. Below we will see two ways to perform this step.

We can use a high thermal retention blanket (HOT GLASS) to heat the glass.

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

The gun emits VERY hot air, use with caution.

We recommend the use at minimum power and short bursts, since excess heat can damage the equipment.

Warm the screen to soften the glue and be able to easily peel it off.

Step 13 Take off screen

With the hot screen we will slide the barb under the screen to take it off.

We recommend not to insert the barb on the upper part, as we could damage the flex on the touch screen.

Step 14

Now we will raise the motherboard again. With great care not to damage the flex of the buttons that still hold the plate, we will slide the flex cable through the hole in the chassis.

Step 15 Fullscreen

We already have the full screen.
