I thought that part looked easy. Remove back cover, easy. Unscrew some screws, easy. Pull out all these components and set aside, uh. Apply heat to flex cable and pry loose, wait what? Apply alcohol to battery, nope I'm out.
Heat gun needed. Micro Torx screws. Thread lock on all of them...Care and the right tools, but it is a pain to DIY if you ask me. I got mine apart. Had to drill out a couple Torx screws.
Thanks for you help I was able to do it. Battery was hard and sticking the power button strip back on I needed some glue. I would love if you could do some super zoom ins for some parts like attaching the antenna and also how to orient everything since the sim chip fell out and that silver piece up top too when I took it apart I spent a lot of time looking up the correct orientations. Ultimately I could not do it without this video so thank you!
Good tutorial but you should have definitely stress a little more how important the alcohol is I was praying on my battery punctured it and it started a fire 😢
following along, at 2:15 I couldn't figure out why the hell my motherboard wouldn't come out. kept prying the hell out of it until eventually I figured it out when I broke my damn sim card tray! Thanks for not mentioning that step!!
aww damn I guess it's my fault. now my signal drops all the time, and takes a long time to reconnect (still shows signal technically, just doesn't have connection, which must be sim card auth issues). IDK what I broke. The sim tray was a little bent but I was able to straighten it out. I guess maybe I damaged the part it goes into on the board... fixed the screen but broke the phone, damn@@colchesterphonerepair3835
Nos ayudamos? Tengo 2 de estos uno bloqueado original enciende todo y el otro pantalla rota será que UD amigo técnico nos podría cambiar a mi la pantalla y a el compañero aquí su material que rompió accidentalmente? Tiene suficiente repuestos está intacto solo por favor
We help us? I have 2 of these, one original blocked, turns everything on and the other broken screen. Your technical friend could change the screen for me and the colleague here, his material that broke
Thank you so much brother. My daily phone is now good to go ☺️👍
That’s great! Glad the video helped!
Makes it looks so easy - the "remove back cover" step is next to impossible - don't be fooled by the video -

will the phone still power up if the fingerprint sensor is unhooked, I ripped the cable getting the back cover off, no power up.

Hi! It’s the second step, shown at the 0:24 mark, right after powering down the phone. I’m sorry that happened to you though.
