    • Due to its surface, the suction tool won't hold onto the phone's rear glass. A thin slicing tool is required.

    • Insert the Jimmy into the seam between the rear glass and the midframe at the bottom edge of the phone to create a gap.

    • This may require some force.

    • Leave the Jimmy in place for a few seconds to prevent the adhesive from resealing.

    • Insert an iFixit opening pick into the gap you created with the Jimmy.

    • Slide the Jimmy around the phone to slice the adhesive.

    • Insert a second iFixit opening pick at the spot you have sliced open to keep it open.

    • Use a Phillips #00 screwdriver to remove the sixteen 3.6 mm-long screws securing the midframe.

    • The orange circle represents a hidden screw that also needs to be screwed out. (At first glance it may not look like a screw).

    • Use your hands to finish prying open the midframe off the phone.

    • Watch out for the fingerprint reader cable when taking off the back tray as it is still connected. If you are not careful, it could be damaged.

    • Pull the midframe off of the phone and lay it to the side of the phone.

    • Before you start with the repair, make sure to disconnect the battery from the charger to avoid damaging your phone.

    • Place a spudger or an opening pick under the connector's edge and pry straight up to disconnect the battery.

    • Make sure to pry under the edge of the connector itself, and not under the socket on the board. Otherwise, you risk permanently damaging the socket.

    • Work carefully: don't pry on or accidentally scrape any small, surface mounted components on the board.

    • To reconnect, align the connector carefully over its socket and press down with your fingertip—first on one side, then the other—until it clicks into place. Don't try to force the connector into place. If you're having trouble, reposition it and try again.

    • Don't press down on the middle of wider connectors until they're fully seated. If misaligned, the connector or the pins underneath can bend or break, causing permanent damage.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
