Step 2 Back case

To remove the back cover we will use a plastic tool, this way we will avoid damage to the phone.

Step 3 Battery

We can use the same tool to help us remove the battery.

Step 4 Sim and microSD cards

We will remove the SIM and micro SD cards by pulling them. If necessary we can use tweezers or another tool.

Step 5 Housing screws

It may seem angry, but deep down our monster ... he likes us to take pictures! While holding the phone, we show you where the screws are.

In the second photo we can see that a sticker covers one of the screws. That does not happen to you!

In any case, we still can not remove the inner shell. There is another hidden screw that will force us to remove the lower cover.

Step 6

To remove the lower cover we will remove the screws from the bottom of the mobile. This will reveal the last screw of the inner casing.

Step 7 Intermediate housing

We will use a fine tool. Carefully we will pry into the notches that hold the housing.

Step 8 base plate screws

The motherboard can not be removed completely without desoldering the volume buttons. We will avoid desoldering them whenever possible.

We will disconnect the flex from the touch screen of the plate, previously lifting the fastening tab.

We will also remove the adhesive that covers one of the screws on the plate.

Step 9

Now we just have to disengage the power button and remove the chassis vibrator to lift the plate, but not quite. Before lifting it, we recommend to see the next step.

Step 10

In this step we show you two connectors. One we show how to disconnect it easily. The other, the one below in the image, in case it does not disconnect only when lifting the plate, we can disconnect it before any other connector. Although with the plate put in its place can hardly be seen, you can access it with some tool.

Step 11 Undo vibrator

As we showed in the first photo, the volume button flex is still connected. From here we must proceed with care when we move the phone to avoid breaking this flex.

We will desoldaremos the toner to be leaving the plate the cleanest of components that we can.

Step 12 Desoldering buttons

In this step we desoldamos the power button and the volume buttons.

Step 13 Desoldering components

We disconnect the remaining components, in this case the two cameras.

Step 14 Motherboard

Here we show you the motherboard.
