To access many of the inner components of the Sony Xperia XA2 Ultra, the motherboard bracket will need to be removed.

Before taking any steps to open the phone, make sure that it is turned completely off.

Be aware that when using a heat gun (or something similar) that the device will heat up. Continue with caution.
