Step 4

  • When you have finished removing all of the screws, place the plastic opening tool in the groove at the bottom left corner of the motherboard cover and lift up.
  • Make sure to remove the SIM card before you remove the motherboard cover. You can get the cover off without doing this, but the SIM card will be stuck underneath the cover once you put it back together.
  • This part could be more difficult if you have never removed the motherboard cover. If difficulty arises, pry the plastic opening tool into each groove along the edge of the motherboard cover until it releases.
  • Once a clip is released, you can detach the motherboard cover with your fingers and set aside.

  • Keep in mind to be careful with the ribbons, because they are small components and important for the device’s functionality.
  • The third photo attached depicts what the ribbons look like when they are successfully detached.

A family member of mine snapped my phone in half with my baby’s pictures on it.

I asked my boyfriend to back up the pictures… well, he figured after thanksgiving when I will have more happy photos…

So, any hope of getting them?

The motherboard is partly missing.

The SD card was full so most were on the phone.
