    • If the screen or back glass is badly cracked, lay overlapping strips of packing tape over the glass to protect yourself and make disassembly easier.

    • If inserted too far, an opening pick can damage your device. Follow this step to mark your pick and prevent damage.

    • Measure 3 mm from the tip and mark the opening pick with a permanent marker.

    • You can also mark the other corners of the pick with different measurements.

    • Alternatively, tape a coin to a pick 3 mm from the tip.

    • The charging port has an adhesive gasket that seals it against the bottom and edge of the frame. It's also tucked behind two prongs, which prevents you from pulling the port away from the frame.

    • Insert the point of a spudger under one side of the charging port.

    • Pry up gently to separate the gasket and lift the port up.
