  34. with a plastic piece, lift battery from adhesive securing it in place.
  35. do not use a metal or sharp tool to remove the battery, tearing or puncturing it may cause it to explode or heat rapidly, and may damage your device.
  36. The battery is secured directly to the back of the LCD. Exercise caution while removing the battery not to damage the LCD.
  37. The battery is soft and somewhat malleable - it can bend slightly without damage.

  39. Place picks between the lcd and the plastic clips holding it in place.
  40. The pick placement to the top left side (near the power button) is smaller and on a corner. I recommend inserting this pick last.

  42. Gently push top right pick down to lift LCD from the clip. Run across the top and right side to further lift LCD.
  43. Use picks as needed to separate LCD in other areas.

  45. Once separated and loose, remove picks so you do not damage the LCD while removing it.
  46. To remove, lift top of LCD and pull out of case away from the speaker, which is fixed to the digitizer frame.

  48. to remove Digitizer/Glass from the frame and speaker, slide a pick under a corner between the glass and frame to loosen adhesive
  49. If you're having issues loosening the adhesive, use a heat gun around the edges, then try again.
