Opener, nice and hot lay it along the edge of the SI for about two minutes, we're going to be softening up the adhesive around the edge of the rear panel.

The adhesive is the thinnest along the center edge of the rear panel, so once atop to the touch, apply your suction cup, close to the edge and begin prying upward. If you don't see a gap, opening up just reapply the hot opener for a couple more minutes, this process does require some patience as soon as you see a gap insert the cutting edge of your halberd spider and slide the blade down the side of the phone cutting away the adhesive. If you're getting lots of resistance, just reapply the hawk eye-opener for a couple more minutes, don't worry! This is the hardest and most time-consuming part of the repair. Just take a deep breath and take your time once you've separated a portion of the panel insert an opening pic to prevent it from resealing and repeat the process of heating and cutting the adhesive around the other sides of the fund. Once you freed all four sides lift the rear panel up just a little.

The fingerprint sensor cable is connected to the motherboard, and its delicate use the point of a standard spider to disconnect it before you completely lift it up and off. There are a total of 11 Philips triple 0 screws, holding the NFC antenna and charging coil assembly place. Once you remove them, the pieces will lift right out. The loudspeaker assembly is next, and it's held in place by three more screws with those pieces out of the way we finally have access to the battery connector and can disconnect it before we move on with our repair we're going to need our eye-opener again. This battery is firmly leaded in place.

After leaving your eye-opener in place to warm up the adhesive gently begin prying from the bottom of the battery, if you're having difficulty prying the battery up, hit it again with a reheated Ida program, widen opening, picks up the side of the battery opposite the motherboard and then lift the battery up and out of the case.
