When removing the LCD I wrongly thought the line on the metal frame was where I should pry and damaged it. You should include a closeup in the guide to show the two and let people know which one to start sticking stuff into. It required a lot of force to get the screen off, the metal frame actually bent outwards from the pressure..
When opening the back cover, make sure not to pry the glass itself off, there’s a really thin piece of plastic (?) behind it. I almost destroyed the cover because of it.
When removing the antenna, don’t force, try removing the antenna by the cable. I broke the connector because it was hard, I somehow managed to repair it (by solder) but DON’T DO THAT the connector is 1mm long, it’s nearly impossible to repair
I have just finished replacing the battery and the screen one this smartphone and it took me forever !!! Unfortunately I forgot to put back the metal tab that holds the screen and fingerprint cable and I am wondering if that is going to be an issue for me in the future as I really don’t want to open the device again !!!
I accidentaly broke the charging cable under the battery while trying to remove the damm thing. The replacment cable is a bit longer. For me the metal tabs are necessary to hold the connectors in place. I supposse in your case everything should be fine.
