Introduction
What you need
Step 1
Rear Panel
- Before disassembling your device, make sure that the power is completely turned off.
- Use the plastic opening tool to release the clips holding the rear panel of the device onto the front section.
- The clips may take some pressure before releasing.
- Continue around the entire device until all of the clips have been released.

Step 2
- Use a spudger to carefully free the speaker from it’s housing on the back panel.
- Place the spudger between the speaker and the rear panel. Use a prying motion to remove the component.
- Be careful not to apply an over amount of force. If care is not taken, the speaker could break under the pressure.

Step 3
Battery
- Insert the flat side of the standard spudger underneath the battery and use a prying action to loosen the glue holding it to the digitizer.
- Do this all around the battery until it comes off.
- The glue is strong, so some force may be required. However, be careful not to apply so much pressure that the battery bends or breaks.
- At this point, do not attempt to fully remove the battery, since it is still connected to the motherboard.

Step 4
- Use the Portable Soldering Iron tool to heat the leads coming from the battery to the motherboard, thereby breaking the connection.
- For help on soldering, refer to the iFixit “How To Solder and Desolder Connections” technique guide as necessary.
- Once heated, use tweezers to pull the wires free from their connections.
- To ease reassembly, take note of which wire went to the positive and negative terminals.
