Step 2
Remove the Inner Cover Screws
- Remove the thirteen black screws and the single silver screw from the back of the phone with a JIS size 00 screwdriver.
- The black screws are 2.8 mm in length.
- The silver screw is 5.5 mm in length.
- The black screw next to the camera and the flash is covered by a sticker. This screw can be easily removed as if there were no sticker on top of it. The point of the screwdriver should be able to pierce through the sticker easily.

Step 4
Remove the Speaker
- Note the position of the speaker unit so you can replace it in the correct place during reassembly.
- Take the speaker out of the back of the phone. It should come out easily as soon as the inner back is removed because nothing is holding it down in place anymore.
