Removing the digitizer (front glass)
  • Use generous amounts of heat in a cyclical manner to evenly heat the front glass.

  • Using a SlyPry, slowly work the front glass out of the front plastic frame, while continually applying heat to the area being worked.

  • The adhesive is very thick around the outside of the glass and will take a long time and lots of heat to get it loose.

  • As you work around the edges, place guitar picks or iFixit triangle tools between the glass and the plastic frame.

  • Once all of the adhesive is released separate slowly and notice the cable.
