To remove the screen, we will disconnect it from the bottom.

Step 3 Remove armor

Remove the ten Phillips screws (PH # 00) that hold the shield, disconnect the battery and remove it.

Step 4

Uncap the housing that covers the auxiliary plate and then disconnect the coaxial cable. Now, we will raise it to disconnect the interconnection flex.

Although not absolutely necessary, we remove the flex from the charging connector. Now we slightly separate the speaker module, enough to disengage the contact plate.
