Steps:

1. For your safety, discharge your battery below 25% before disassembling your phone. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
2. Unplug any chargers/peripheries and power off your phone.

3. If the rear glass is cracked, be sure to tape over the glass panel before moving on.

4. Use a hair dryer to lightly heat the perimeter of the rear glass.
5. Additionally, heat the top-right corner, as there is adhesive further inside of phone in that one spot.
6. Do not hold the hair dryer in one spot on the phone for too long to prevent damage to internal parts of the phone.

7. Apply a suction handle as close to the bottom edge as possible.
8. Pull up on the suction handle with strong, steady force to create a gap between the glass and the frame.
9. If you have trouble creating a gap, apply more heat to further soften the adhesive.
10. Insert an opening pick into the gap.

11. Slide the opening pick around the perimeter of the rear glass to slice the adhesive.
12. Insert additional opening picks as you slice the adhesive to prevent the adhesive from resealing.
13. If the adhesive becomes hard to cut, it has most likely cooled down. Use your hair dryer to reheat it.

14. Carefully lift the rear glass up and off of the phone.
15. During reassembly secure the rear glass with pre-cut adhesive or double-sided adhesive tape. After installing the rear glass, apply strong, steady pressure to your phone for several minutes to help the adhesive form a good bond—a stack of heavy books works well.

16. Use one of the opening picks to remove the adhesive on the lower part of the wireless charging cable

17. Unplug the press connector ribbon cable attached to the flash module by inserting a spudger under the bottom edge and prying straight up.
18. Use an opening pick to remove the flash module by the camera.
19. Use a Phillips #000 screwdriver to remove the eleven 4.9 mm-long screws holding the motherboard cover to the phone.
20. Use an opening pick to pry off the motherboard cover.

21. Use a Phillips #000 screwdriver to remove five screws that secure the lower daughterboard cover.
22. Two of the screws have a white head and are 4.8 mm-long. They go in the bottom right corner of the daughter and mother board.
23. The other three screws are black and are also 4.8 mm-long.

24. Disconnect the two interconnect cables by inserting a spudger under each lip and prying straight up.

25. Remove the three screws from the loudspeaker using a Phillips #000 screwdriver.

26. Use the spudger to pry up and remove the loudspeaker.

27. Insert a SIM eject tool, bit, or straightened paper clip into the SIM card tray hole on the bottom edge of the phone.
28. Press firmly to eject the tray.
29. Remove the SIM card tray.

30. Insert a spudger under the lip of the charging port press connector and pry it straight up to disconnect it.

31. Unclip the ribbon cable on bottom left side of the daughter board, using the spudger.
32. Insert a spudger under the lip of the upper-left interconnect cable press connector and pry it straight up to disconnect it.
