    • The midframe is secured to the display assembly by several plastic clips behind the chrome bezel of the midframe. The next few steps will guide you through separating the clips to free the midframe.

    • Starting on the volume button side of the phone, insert your plastic opening tool between the chrome bezel around the display glass and the larger chrome border piece. Look for the seam between the two.

    • Slide the opening tool along the seam, separating the plastic clips as you go.

    • Be very gentle whilst prying, and pry only enough to separate the plastic clips—there are several thin points in the midframe bezel that may crack if you bend them too much.

I accidentally inserted an electric pin instead of the auxiliary jack into the head phone jack assembly. There was a loud screeching sound and ever since then the head phones do not work. However, I can play music through the phone speaker and also with Bluetooth. I cannot listen to music with my ear buds or head phones or with auxiliary speakers. I have replaced the jack assembly with a new one and yet it is the same. What more can I do to rectify this?
