We start by heating the lid to soften the adhesive and make it easier to peel it off. We heat it to about 65 ° C for about a minute.
Step 2 Take off back cover
With the hot back cover, we slide a flat tool around the contour between it and the frame. Once detached, we will disconnect the fingerprint reader to separate it.
Step 3 Remove intermediate housing
We take out the eight Phillips screws (PH # 00) that hold the upper internal shell, undo it and take off the sides of the NFC antenna.
Step 4 Remove internal casings
Remove the seven screws that hold the loudspeaker module and the intermediate internal casing and disengage them.
Step 5 Disconnect components
We disconnected the antenna cables, the flex of the screen and the battery, the front cameras and the flex of the proximity and flash sensor.
Step 6 Removing the motherboard
We remove the Phillips screw (PH # 00) that holds the motherboard and also remove the SIM / SD tray. Now we lift the base plate by the lower part to disconnect it from the auxiliary plate and disengage it.
Step 7 Volume and bixby pushbuttons
To finish, we take off the flex and we disengage it from the chassis.
