Tutorial: Step by step

Step 1 Remove back cover

We start by heating the back part at about 65 ° C for about a minute to soften the adhesive that holds the lid. When it is hot, we introduce an opening tool between it and the frame to take it off.

Step 2 Remove intermediate housing

We took out the seventeen Phillips screws (PH # 00) that hold the intermediate housing and then pulled it off by prying it all the way around.

Step 3 Disconnect components

Remove the two Phillips screws (PH # 00) that hold the plate shield and disconnect the components that are connected to it.

Step 4 Removing the motherboard

Remove the two Phillips screws (PH # 00) that still hold the motherboard and also remove the SIM / SD tray. Now we can undo the base plate of the chassis.

Step 5 Flex with proximity sensor and headset contacts

It only remains to take off the shielding of the plate and then take off the flex.
