Before working on this device, prepare to heat it up to soften the adhesive. You can use a heat mat (in this guide's photos), but you can also use a hair dryer, heat gun, iOpener, or whatever method you have available.
-
Once the back is properly heated, apply your Suction Cup to the right side. Pull up hard to break the seal and allow a gap for your Opening Pick to slide in.
-
After your Opening Pick is in, you can remove the Suction Cup.
-
-
-
Leaving your first Opening Pick where it is to prevent the adhesive from resealing, slide a second on into the gap, and down around the bottom corners.
-
-
-
Continue sliding that same Opening Pick up the left side, but stop when you get to the camera.
-
-
-
Going back to the original Opening Pick, slide it up the right side and around the top corner.
-
Once again, stop once you get to the camera.
-
-
-
When at the camera, tilt your Opening Pick upwards.
-
Slide your Opening Pick under the back of the phone but over the camera glass.
-
You may need to go all the way around the cameras, as there is a separate strip of adhesive around the cameras specifically.
-
-
-
Remove the 7 Screws holding the midframe in over the motherboard.
-
One of these screws has an "S" tamper evident seal. Don't miss it!

-
-
-
Remove the 5 screws holding the midframe in over the cameras.
-
-
-
Using your Sim Card Ejection Tool, or just a paperclip, insert it into the hole of the sim card tray.
-
Pull out the sim card tray.
-
-
-
Insert an Opening Pick into the gap between the midframe and the screen frame where the sim card tray was.
-
The plastic is thinnest in this area and flexible, so you should be able to force your Opening Pick into the seam.
-
Move your Opening Pick down the right side of the phone and around the bottom corners.
-
On the left side, only move the Opening Pick up halfway, and stop before reaching the power button.
-
Go back to the right side and move your Opening Pick over the top, but stop after the top left corner before getting to the buttons.
-
-
-
-
Once the clips are released, lay the phone back down on its screen and gently lift the midframe up.
-
Open it as you would a book, making sure to treat it like a hinge on the left side, as the power button is still attached by a delicate ribbon cable.
-
Turn the midframe over and lie it down flipped over next to the phone.
-
-
-
With the midframe beside the phone, use an Opening Pick or Spudger to disconnect the power button from the motherboard.

Insert your Spudger into this gap, and gently pry upwards. The motherboard should now lift freely away from the frame of the screen.
-
-
-
Remove the 2 screws holding the loudspeaker in over the daughterboard.
-
-
-
There is a small gap on the far right side of the loudspeaker, giving you access between the speaker and the daughterboard.
-
Insert your Spudger into this hole, and gently pry upwards. The loudspeaker should now lift freely away from the frame of the daughterboard.
-
-
-
Use an Opening Pick or Spudger to disconnect the screen from the daughterboard.

-
-
-
Carefully peel back the wireless charging coil from the right side of the battery to reveal the tabs underneath.
-
-
-
There are two tabs on the right side of the battery marked "Step 1". These tabs are attached to the frame of the phone and should not be pulled on. They only need to be peeled away from the battery.
-
There is a large tab on the left side of the battery. This is unmarked, but should be carefully removed, as not doing so can damage the wireless charging coil if still attached.
-
There is one tab on the right side of the battery marked "Step 2". After the other tabs are peeled off the battery, this one is pulled on to remove the battery from the phone.
-
-
-
With the wireless charging coil out of the way, gently peel both tabs labelled "Step 1" off of the battery.
-
-
-
With the wireless charging coil and all tabs peeled back, pull up forcefully on Tab 2 to pull the battery off of the frame.
-
It is more important to give consistant pulling force rather than short sharp pulls on the tab.
-
If at any time it is too difficult to pull the battery up, stop and apply heat to the screen side of the device to soften the adhesive.
-
-
-
With all major components removed, place your old screen and new screen side by side and transfer over any small parts that may be left behind.

Hey is there anyone who has had a problem with the phone not turning back on after the screen replacement? If so how did you fix it?
Did not experience anything like that during my repair. I would double check, in no particular order, that the battery is properly connected, the power button is properly connected, and that the screen ordered was from a reputable supplier and is for the exact correct model phone. You can also try reassembling with the old (presumably broken) screen and seeing if the phone powers on. If everything is double and triple checked and it does not power on with either the new or old screen, then it is likely damaged motherboard, or potentially other critical component for power. If it powers on with the old screen but not the new one, it is likely an incorrect screen ordered or delivered by mistake, or even a faulty product.
