    • Wedge your thumb into the indent located on the bottom left corner of the back cover and pull up to remove the back cover.

    • Remove the seventeen 3.2mm Torx T4 screws from the mid-frame.

    • These may be T3 screws. If you are having trouble unscrewing these, stop and try a T3 bit.

    These are actually T3 screws

    Wish I had noticed this BEFORE stripping all my screw heads… ugh!

    These are definitely T3 screws.

    • Pull the mid-frame off of the phone.

    • Keep track of the on/off and volume buttons when you take the phone apart because they are likely to fall out when the halves are separated.

    • Remove the static tape covering the two connectors.

    • Use a spudger to disconnect the battery cables from the motherboard.

    • If battery has adhesive, use heat gun for one to two minutes to loosen it. Be careful of the points outlined in red when prying it up. Use guitar picks or a spudger to gently lift the battery and separate the adhesive.

    Just out of curiosity, does anyone know the purpose for the two very strong magnets?

    • Remove the disconnected battery from the phone.

    The NFC pad has to be transferred to the new battery or it won’t charge correctly if at all. The black appears to be graphite. No matter how carefully I picked the charging coil off, the black still came off in places. Most of it was still intact so the battery charged to 100% (Yay!) and although the battery discharged at a normal rate, Asurion Battery Health app shows it working at only 637% which, oddly enough, is about the amount of graphite that was scraped off during the removal process.

    • Lift the black tab on the ZIF connector up.

    • Pull the ribbon cable out of the ZIF connector.

    Careful. The zip connector is extremely fragile.
