Tools required: plastic shim such as a guitar plectrum, Phillips screwdriver and T6 screwdriver
Remove the battery cover, battery and sim card. Unscrew the 2 x Philips and the 2 x T6 torx screws you see. Use the shim to skim around the edges of the back cover, whilst gently lifting the cover to prise and release the clips (as pictured below).
Below is how the phone will look once you have removed the front cover. Now remove the keypad
Next, remove the plate below the keypad and black plastic backing. Lever this part gently from the left side of the phone as pictured. You’ll see a connector on the right hand side of the phone (circled). Using a small flat screwdriver, unplug it and lift away the plate.
WARNING: There are 2 tiny brass-like clips on the black plastic backing plate (circled). DO NOT lose these! In fact, try not to even dislodge them from the plate.
To replace the LCD, remove the 2 x T6 torx screws from the top of the screen. Unplug the screen connector from the PCB (circled in yellow).
Then, easing it over the joystick, lift the screen free. Replace with the new screen. Reverse the procedure for disassembly and it's finished.
