-
-
-
Gently grasp the display assembly and lift it up to open the phone, using the clips at the top of the front panel as a hinge.
-
Open the display to about a 90º angle, and lean it against something to keep it propped up while you're working on the phone.

Add a rubber band to keep the display securely in place while you work. This prevents undue strain on the display cables.
