Einleitung

In this guide you will remove the back cover of the device and disconnect the motherboard from the surrounding components. You will then unscrew the motherboard from the device and replace it if need be.

Because this task requires the use of a soldering iron, prior experience with soldering/desoldering will be beneficial.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Wedge the plastic opening tool between the back cover of the device and the front panel.
You will hear a snapping sound as the cover is separated from the body of the device.

Schritt 2

Slide the opening tool along the seam between the front panel and the back cover to un-clip the remaining connections around the device.
Again, you will hear a snapping sound as the cover is separated from the body of the device.

Schritt 3

Lift the back cover from the body of the device to expose the internal components.

Schritt 4

Remove the Battery
The battery is secured to the back panel with tape and glue.
Peel back the tape around the battery and discard it.
Tear through the adhesive holding the battery by using the spudger tool.

Schritt 5

Desolder the 2 Battery Wires
The Battery has two wires connected to the motherboard (one black and one red).

Be sure to wear protective eye wear. The soldering iron will become extremely hot and a potential danger, so make sure you are aware of your surroundings.

After i replaces the battery it still doesn't work

Schritt 8

Follow the camera unit back to the motherboard.
Use the spudger tool to remove the camera.

Schritt 9

Remove the Speakers
Use the tweezers to remove the speakers from their compartments.

Should you have two photos? Is it clear where you removed the speaker from?

Should you note here that the speaker has wires that will also need to be removed?

Do you ever mention the tape?
