We will start by removing the back cover, for this we will use an opening tool with which we will leverage to release the notches that hold it.

To remove the battery, we can use the opening tool and pry with this or if not, we will use our hands.

To remove the cards, we will simply pull them out.

In order to remove the casing, first we will have to remove the thirteen screws that fasten it to the chassis. Then with the help of an opening tool, we will disengage the housing from the notches that hold it.

In this step we will disconnect the flex from the touch screen and the display. To disconnect them, simply we will have to raise the tab of fixation of the connector and pull until extracting it.

To remove the base plate, first remove the three screws that hold it to the chassis, then simply we will have to disengage it.

In this step we will heat the screen but before, so as not to forget, we will take off the flex from the digitizer of the chassis.

To heat the screen we will use the thermal mat, setting it at 70ºC for about 40 seconds should be more than enough to soften the adhesive.

With the hot screen, we will introduce a prong or other flat opening tool between the screen and the frame. We will go sliding around the contour, avoiding the area where the flex is, until it takes off completely.

Before removing the screen, we will slide the digitizer flex through the hole in the chassis.
