4.0-inch IPS screen

Шаг 1

Remove the micro SD card located on the left and right sides of the device by pushing into the SD card slot and pulling the card out.
Unscrew all six 7.5 mm screws on the backside of the case using a 1.5 mm hex screwdriver.

Шаг 2

Take apart the case by separating the front and back sides using an iFixit opening tool.
When using the opening tool, carefully pry open the case to avoid damaging the device.

Шаг 3

Disconnect the battery connection cable by gently pulling it away with angled tweezers from the slot that connects the cable to the motherboard.
The cable connection to the motherboard is labeled "+BAT-" for easy identification.

Шаг 4

Using a Phillips #00 screwdriver, remove the 10 5.5 mm screws securing the circuit board to the case.

Шаг 5

Remove the tape covering the ribbon cables.
Using ESD-safe tweezers, gently pull the ribbon cables away from the circuit board.
Using ESD-safe tweezers will prevent further damage to your device and harm to yourself.

Шаг 6

Gently lift the circuit board out of the case.

Шаг 7

Gently slide an opening pick in between the screen and the case frame.
Do not slide the opening pick under the case frame aggressively, as this could damage your screen or device further.

Шаг 8

Gently slide a Jimmy in between the screen and case frame.
Move the Jimmy around the underside of the case frame to loosen the adhesive holding the screen in place.
Gently loosening the adhesive of the screen is key in this step, as aggressive movements could damage the device further.
It may be helpful to slide another opening pick under the case frame to aid in releasing the strong adhesive.

Шаг 9

Gently press on the back side of the screen to dislodge it from the case.
If the adhesive has not been fully released, return to step 6 to continue loosening it to avoid further damage to the device.
