Introduction
If you are looking to simply reassemble an already removed display screen, you may proceed to Step 5 - Step 1, backward.
Before beginning to remove or replace the damaged display, make sure that the device is completely powered off and that it is not connected to any charging ports or headphone ports. We recommend replacing the display in a well-lit environment to ensure that you can see the repairs you are making on the device.
