Stap 10

Use a plastic pry tool to begin removing the touch screen assembly.
Slide the pry tool along the gap between the touch screen digitizer and the LCD mount to release the connectors.
Once the touch screen assembly has been separated, carefully slide the ribbon through the slot in its housing.
Caution: Be gentle when separating the two sections along the top of the phone. The ribbon detached in step 6 is attached to the touch screen digitizer and must be carefully fed through the LCD housing to avoid tearing it.

The final step is to remove the LCD screen from its housing. Begin by gently peeling the ribbon from the back of the housing.
Once the ribbon is fully detached, carefully feed it through the bottom of the display housing.
