iPhone Screen Replacement Steps Overview
1.Pentalobe Screws Removing and Hot Air Gun Heating
Remove the two pentalobe screws with the pentagon screwdriver at the bottom edge of the phone.
Since there are waterproof seals between the screen and the back glass assembly, you need to heat and soften up the waterproof seals with the hot air gun at 120℃-150℃ for 1 minute.
2. Open The Screen
Press the suction cup firmly onto the screen, and insert the pry piece to slice through the adhesive holding the screen.
Note: Do not swing the screen up from the bottom side.
As the flex cables of iPhone x are mainly arranged on the right side, to avoid tearing off these cables, we need to open the phone by swinging the screen up from the left side.
♥Tips: Please be careful with the force applied when replacing the screen.
Otherwise, the phone might be stuck in touch/display issues. Because the bottom area of the screen(with ICs bonded here) and the Face ID area are fragile.
