Tools required for disassembly: Torx 5 screwdriver, plastic tool such as a credit card or guitar plectrum,
small flat head screwdriver or nail scissors or something similar.
First remove the battery cover, battery, memory card and stylus.
Remove the two circled screws (one will be covered with a white warranty
sticker).
Next pull the camera cover up. Some force is required.
Your phone will now look like below. Now remove the two screws you
can see. The battery compartment of the phone can now be removed.
Next you need to detach the circled ribbon connector. There is a black
latch where the ribbon attaches. Flip this up (from right to left) and
then simply pull the ribbon out. Pay attention to how the ribbon
attaches.
Now lift the circuit board from right to left and detach the ribbon
connector, circled below, in the same way you did the previous one.
Now push something like a watchmakers screwdriver with a flat head
or one arm of a pail of nail scissors into the circled slots to lever
away the clips that hold the front cover on.
The front cover has now been removed and you have access to the LCD
screen.
The screen is held in place with double sided tape. Pry the screen away from the
rest of the phone, as shown below.
You have now removed the LCD screen. Reverse the whole procedure for
reassembly. If you've found this disassembly guide useful, please support formymobile.co.uk and order the tools and parts you need from our site. We ship worldwide!
