Step 2

  • Insert a plastic opening tool in the small crevasse between the screen and the back panel.
  • Pry the screen away from the back panel.
  • Repeat this on each edge of the device.
  • We found it helpful to leave multiple plastic opening tools wedged in the crevasse to prevent it from closing.
  • This requires heavy force. The back of the device is attached with an adhesive. If the back panel is too hard to remove, use the iOpener.
