Einleitung

The camera stabilizer is used in the phone to stabilize the camera when it is taking a picture. It is situated on the camera on the inside of the phone. It will need replacing when the phone has difficulty focusing on an object and the pictures taken come out shaky or unfocused.

    • Heat up the iOpener in the microwave for 30 seconds.

    • Caution: when the iOpener is heated up, hold it by the sides to prevent bodily harm.

    Can you condense this step a bit? (e.g., Heat the iOpener in the microwave”)

    • Place the iOpener on the side of the phone until the iOpener gets cool (approximately 10-15 minutes).

    • Reheat the iOpener and reapply it to the other side of the phone.

    • Gently slide the jimmy along the edges of the phone to break the adhesive.

    • Use opening picks and the opening tool to pry the back cover off.

    • The use of metal tools as shown in the photos is potentially dangerous as the battery is exposed along the edges of the case and risk of puncture is high. Choose an ESD safe tool instead.

    • There are 6 different tabs on each side of the phone that might take force to get apart.

    • Repeat the heating and prying process until the back cover can be fully removed.

    The tools don’t need to be capitalized, aside from the iOpener. Make sure to check throughout for this issue.

    • Use the #00 phillips head to take out the six phillips #00 3.175mm screws on the top cover plate.

    • Use the spudger to release the clasps along the edge of the top plate.

    Per feedback, consider swapping for the nylon spudger, rather than the metal one.
