Tutorial: Step by step

Step 1 Tray

To begin with we have removed the card tray.

Step 2 Back case

With the help of a tool that is thin enough we will open a hole to insert a plastic prong so as not to damage the back shell. If necessary we can apply some heat before introducing the first tool to soften the glue.

Step 3 Fingerprint reader

With tweezers we will remove the plastic cover that covers the connector of the fingerprint reader, and with the help of a flat tool we will disconnect the damaged fingerprint reader.
