Are those 5G components so expensive as to justify two different versions of the board and the other differences between the US and EU variants? It seems to me that simpler would be better, with the exact same hardware and the functionality disabled in the OS for specific regions based on GPS location. It also would be more consumer friendly: what if someone travels from Europe to North America and wants to use 5G mmWave? Tough, you bought the EU variation without the required chips to do that.

It looks like these tabs are supposed to work like those Command things for hanging stuff on the wall - pull it till it stretches and then it comes right off.

You could be super lucky like me, the tabs break off, then try to pry it out with my pocketknife, then a real quick trip out the back door and drop it on the ground because the battery caught fire!

Luckily, once I got the mess cleaned up (the heat was sufficient to dislodge the adhesive by turning it into liquid sticky goo) and the replacement battery installed, it amazingly still worked.

Probably a CDMA (Verizon) iPhone 4.

Step 14 is missing: insert small spudger or screwdriver on left and right sides to separate the display panel from the metal backing plate.

does this void the warranty?

Duh!
