When dismantling any phone, great care should be taken to ensure that no damage is caused to any of the parts. Rough handling may result in severe damage of many parts, and if proper anti-static procedures are not followed, electrostatic damage may result in any electronic component.
Before commencing, it is recommended that the correct tools are purchased for the job in hand - at the very least, you will require a Torx T6 screwdriver.
Step 1. Protect the screen with a film or similar.
Step 2. Remove the battery cover.
Step 3. Remove the front fascia.
Step 4. Remove the key mat.
Step 5. Protect the inside of the screen.
Step 6. Remove the six screws in the order shown below and store them safely.
Step 7. Remove the modules from the chassis.
Step 8. Unplug the display connector by carefully pulling apart the two modules.
Step 9. Use your shim to release the clips on each side of the shielding.
Step 10. Now lift the shield away.
Step 11. Protect the LCD screen with a film or similar.
Step 12. Use your shim to remove the LCD screen as shown below.
Step 13. Use a toothpick or similar to remove the microphone taking care not to damage the contacts.
Step 14. The ear piece is held in place with double sided tape which will probably have to be replaced if the speaker is removed.
Step 15. Unlock the user interface module on the left side first and then lift it up carefully.
Step 16. Use an unplugged charger to remove the power jack.
Step 17. Remove the vibra motor.
Step 18. Use tweezers to remove the release spring.
Step 19. Use tweezers to push through the opening in the C cover and remove the release key.
Step 20. Use a flat bladed screwdriver to remove the aerial assembly.
Step 21. Remove the volume key.
Step 22. Remove the power key.
Step 23. Reassembly is a simple reversal of the above steps taking extra time to ensure that everything works as it should, and that you have caused no damage whilst inside the handset.
