First, starting the first edge is a huge pain. As soon as the thin guitar pick got near the warm phone, it softened up and wouldn't pry the edge up. I found it easier to use a thumbnail to get the first edge lifted and then get the tip of a pick in the opening. Second, this repair is essentially impossible if you are trying to replace an internal component without replacing the glass/digitizer/LCD. The adhesive holding the glass to the digitizer/LCD is released easier than the adhesive tape behind it. As such, the glass releases from the digitizer/LCD unevenly, shattering the digitizer/LCD. It almost seems like it would be better to put the whole phone in a warming oven to soften the adhesive evenly. Mine phone is already destroyed thanks, in part, to these instructions. Anyone else want to give it a try?
