Introduzione

This guide will show someone how to remove the screen from the phone. It does require several specialized tools, but the actual removal of the screen is relatively simple.

Using a plastic opening tool or spudger, pry up the screen after the adhesive has melted.
When working with electronics, it's important to choose a tool that's ESD-safe to avoid accidental damage to the device. The metal spudger is great when you need serious prying power, but the regular black nylon spudger or a plastic opening tool should be used whenever possible.
Because it is a water-resistant phone, the screen cannot be taken apart without breaking.

Passo 4

The plastic cover of the phone may separate from the LCD screen. If so, also remove the LCD screen with the regular nylon spudger.
In the upper right area of the LCD screen, there is a connecting ribbon. Be careful not to rip its connection to the motherboard.
Do not hold the phone too close to your face or eyes. Small glass shards may dislodge or the metal spudger may slip.
