Here are some helpful tips to assist you in completing a safe repair on your device. If you are unsure of something or have any questions, please feel free to contact us either by phone (0508 IGADGET) or by email

• Drain the battery below 25% before you start on this repair
• Always power down your device prior to working on it
• Track your screws on a screw mat or tape them to a drawing of your phone. This model uses 1.2mm, 1.4mm and 1.8mm Y000 screws plus one 1.4mm Phillips screw - a long screw in a short hole can damage the logic board
• Remove the two 6.8mm pentalobe screws beside the Lightning port, then heat the bottom edge to soften the adhesive
• Insert picks under the plastic bezel, never at the seam between bezel and display, no deeper than 3mm (2mm along the left edge). The screen opens from the right-hand side like a book - the display cables are on the left. Expect some resistance from the clips along the top edge
• Always unplug the battery before you remove any other parts. Keep metal tools away from the battery, and never bend, crush or puncture it.
• Remove the single 1.2mm Y000 screw and the connector cover, then disconnect the battery before the display cable. The front sensor cable sits under its own cover, held by one 1.4mm Phillips (it strips easily), one 1.8mm Y000 and one 1.2mm Y000 screw
• Transfer the front sensor assembly from your old screen - the earpiece stays in the phone. Remove its metal cover (three 1.4mm Y000 screws), warm the top edge for 1-2 minutes, then gently lift each sensor with a spudger or opening card, keeping adhesive off the sensors and microphone when refitting. A broken cable loses Face ID
• Make sure the phone is on iOS 15.2 or later, otherwise Face ID can stop working after a screen replacement
• When reconnecting a cable, press one end until it clicks, then the other - never press in the middle. If the screen or touch does not work, disconnect the battery and reseat the display cable
• Test touch, display, proximity (screen turns off during a call) and Face ID before sealing the phone, and don't peel off the protective film or any stickers until it's all working
• Clean off all the old adhesive with isopropyl alcohol and fit the new screen adhesive supplied in the box to keep dust and moisture out. Seat the top edge clips first when closing the phone
• Once the repair is finished, turn True Tone on in Settings > Display & Brightness (iOS 18 or later)
