Remove the nineteen 3.1 mm T3 screws securing the midframe.
A pair of binocular magnifiers is helpful here. Also, a magnetic pickup will help pull the tiny screws out of their counterbores.
Well I'm stuck. 3 screw heads are stripped on mine, not lucky as they are two on USB port end and screw in-between two SIM slots. Phone bought new and this is 1st time screws have been touched, could see they were already stripped before getting screwdriver near them. Any tips on removing stripped screws?
Hi Mark,
I’m sorry to hear that! You can try some techniques from the stripped screw guide.
I found that a T4 driver was the correct size for the screws.

Peel up and remove the tape securing the battery wires.

Slip the point of a spudger underneath the red and black battery wires and gently pry straight up.
This one is really difficult. I failed to vertically pull the plug. In the end, the wire ends came out of the plug. Luckily, the openings for the wires give some grip for tweezers to pull the plug upwards.

Peel the black pull tab from battery and pull slowly but firmly to separate the battery from the frame.
Does anybody know, what the black tape covering the metal cans an the battey is made of? It seems to have a heat insulating effect.
No, but the tape completely separated from itself when I removed it. Glue separated from the backing. I figure the glue in the frame is holding it well enough.
I found prying the battery out was the trickiest part of this job. Take your time and pry with the plastic tool, working from the end away from the wires, but try not to deform the battery in the process. It does finally come out.
Hi, I cannot remove the Battery, it has too strong glue. Any Ideas?
Regards
You can try to drip some high concentration isopropyl alcohol along the battery edge to help loosen the adhesive.

I accidentally broke the headphone jack ribbon cable socket off of the motherboard - its a very small 3 socket ZIF connector that wasn’t attached very good. Now I have no display - I’m wondering if the headphone jack has something to do with it? I would think breaking that connector would only affect the headphone jack.
