To begin we remove the card reader with a SIM removal tool.

We will apply heat to the back cover with a thermal mat (about 75ºC for about 3-4min) to soften the adhesive that holds it, and with the help of a fine enough tool we will make a hole to insert one or more plastic spikes and thus We will not risk damaging the case.

With the pick we take off the case around the edge of the phone and extract it, taking care with the fingerprint reader that is connected to the motherboard.

We remove the three Phillips screws (PH # 00) that hold the shield, extract it, then disconnect the fingerprint reader connector and remove the back cover along with the reader.

Finally, we take advantage of the heat that we put on the back cover to remove it and we do a little force to detach the fingerprint reader and extract it.

If it is very hard, we can give the housing a little heat again to soften the adhesive.
