    • Use a Thin Plastic Tool (such as a guitar pick) or Plastic Prying Tool (such as a spudger) to lift out the glass digitizer and LCD screen around the edges.

    • Do this slowly and carefully, as both parts can crack very easily.

    • Ensure your tool is plastic, as a metal tool can damage the screen easily.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
