To begin with we will have to remove the back cover. For this we will use a barb or any other plastic opening tool to avoid scratches.

Introduce the barb between the housing and the screen to unhook the notches that hold it.

To remove the screen, first disconnect the flex cable from the display and the touch screen. It may be necessary to unscrew the left earphone to remove the flex from the screen.

In this step we will need to heat the glass to soften the glue and thus be able to remove the screen more easily.

Below we will see two ways to perform this step.

We will use a high thermal retention blanket (HOT GLASS) to heat the glass.

Insert the HOT GLASS in the microwave for the time specified in the instructions.

To heat it evenly, it is necessary to interrupt the microwave every 30 seconds to distribute heat throughout the HOT GLASS with your hands.

The gun emits VERY hot air, use with caution.

We recommend the use at minimum power and short bursts, since excess heat can damage the equipment.

Warm the screen to soften the glue and be able to easily peel it off.

With the hot screen, we will introduce a prong between it and the chassis to take off.

Once detached, we can separate it from the chassis.
