Steps:
- Turn off your phone before continuing.
- Remove the SIM card tray on the left side of the phone using a SIM card eject tool.

- Use the hair dryer on the highest setting, constantly going around the phone to heat all of the edges.
- The phone will become hot to the touch. Use gloves or a towel to touch the phone.
- Apply the suction handle near an edge of the phone and pull upwards while trying to get an opening large enough for an iFixit opening pick.
- Pry upwards with the pick to start pulling the rear cover off the adhesive it’s attached to.
- Insert a second pick once there is enough room.
- Take one of the picks and try to slide it down the side of the phone, pulling more of the cover off the adhesive.
- The iFixit opening tool may also be used to gain better leverage.
- The rear cover will pop off.
- Once the rear cover is off, use the iFixit opening tool to detach the flex cable.
- Remove the six 3 mm Phillips #000 screws.
- Remove the motherboard bracket with an iFixit opening tool.
