cables.

display assembly’s plastic frame. Use the heat

gun/blow drier to heat the adhesive around the

perimeter of the touch screen. This will soften the

connection between them.

Thunderbolt, you can now peel the ribbon cable

from the phone because there is still a ribbon

cable routed under the LCD. This cable needs

to be lifted and detached before complete

separation.

frame. Be careful! The LCD is fragile and, if it is not

already cracked, you risk damaging it if you are too

forceful.
