Step 2. Remove the tray
The first thing we need to do is remove the card tray. To do this, we use a special tool, insert it into the hole and carefully push out the card tray.
Step 3. Open the display module
Next, we need to heat the surface of the display to approximately 70 degrees Celsius or 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
â ī¸ī¸ For this we use a heating mat, and we highly recommend not to detach the display by yourself at home using a hair dryer or any other devices. As the display is really thin, it is difficult to detach, well glued and soo easy to damage.
â ī¸ī¸ Therefore, if you need to open the display, it is better to contact a service or repair center.
So, after 15 to 20 minutes of heating the display, we move on to detaching it. To do this, we first use a thin plastic film.
We try to insert it into the gap between the display and the case and carefully run it along the edge cutting off the adhesive base. We need to be really careful not to push the film too deep, so that we don't accidentally damage anything.
We can also put something under the display on the separated part, for example, in our case it is a plastic card, so that the display does not stick back to the case.
â ī¸ī¸ Also please note that we need to be careful in the area of the front camera, because it is located in the place of adhesive and it is easy to damage it.
â ī¸ī¸ Removing the display takes on average 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 4. Unscrew one screw
We need to unscrew one screw that hold the battery connector and remove the bracket. To do this, we use a Phillips screwdriver one and a half millimeters or Philips #000.
Step 5. Disconnect the battery connector
Disconnect the battery connector as soon as you can. Use a non-metallic or plastic tool to avoid any damage.

It is better to place the screws separately from the previous ones on a certain surface, they can be marked or taken pictures.
Step 12. Remove the frame
