What you need
Step 1
Back Cover
- First switch off your phone and remove the SIM card tray.
- Unscrew the two Pentalobe P2 screws located at the bottom next to the device’s USB C port.
- If the screen is cracked you might want to use some tape to protect your eyes from glass shreds and get a better grip to open the phone.

Step 2
- Avoid to lift only the display instead of the whole phone assembly as doing so may cause damage to the screen.
- Use an iSclack or a suction handle to separate the phone assembly from the rear panel.
- In case you can‘t manage to lift the phone assembly out of the rear panel you can insert the pointed end of a spudger in the headphone jack opening and press the phone assembly upwards until you create a gap between assembly and rear panel. Then use the spudger to lever the phone assembly out of the panel.
- Don’t remove the rear panel completely yet. There is a cable connected to it! It is running from the finger print sensor to the display unit.
