| + | [title] Removing the digitizer |
|---|---|
| + | [* black] Now the fun begins. I, unfortunately, don't have the wonderfully amazing iOpener so I had to use a heat gun and a lot of patience. |
| + | [* black] Lucky for me, the digitizer was already more broken than our economy so I wasn't stressed about damaging it more. I simply heated, pried gently, and repeated around the top and sides. |
| + | [* black] I saved the bottom, where the home button is, for last since I figured that there would be a small flex cable connected somehow. |
| + | [* black] I continued the heating and gentle coercion on the screen until I could see the home button and adjacent flex cable. I used a spudger to keep the cable from pulling loose from the mid-frame while I freed the digitizer from it's bonds and removed it from the device. |
