  1. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Pentalobe Screws: adım 1, 1 resimden 1.
    • Before you begin, discharge your iPhone battery below 25%. A charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured.

    • Power off your iPhone before beginning disassembly.

    • Remove the two 3.4 mm pentalobe screws at the bottom edge of the iPhone.

    • Opening the iPhone's display will compromise its waterproof seals. Have replacement seals ready before you proceed past this step, or take care to avoid liquid exposure if you reassemble your iPhone without replacing the seals.

  2. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Mark your opening picks: adım 2, 3 resimden 1. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Mark your opening picks: adım 2, 3 resimden 2. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Mark your opening picks: adım 2, 3 resimden 3.
    • If inserted too far, an opening pick can damage your device. Follow this step to mark your pick and prevent damage.

    • Measure 3 mm from the tip and mark the opening pick with a permanent marker.

    • You can also mark the other corners of the pick with different measurements.

    • Alternatively, tape a coin to a pick 3 mm from the tip.

  3. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Taping Over The Display: adım 3, 3 resimden 1. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Taping Over The Display: adım 3, 3 resimden 2. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Taping Over The Display: adım 3, 3 resimden 3.
    • If your display glass is cracked, keep further breakage contained and prevent bodily harm during your repair by taping over the glass.

    • Lay overlapping strips of clear packing tape over the iPhone's display until the whole face is covered.

    • This will keep glass shards contained and provide structural integrity when prying and lifting the display.

    • Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes from any glass shaken free during the repair.

    • If the broken glass makes it difficult to get a suction cup to stick in the next few steps, try folding a strong piece of tape (such as duct tape) into a handle and lifting the display with that instead.

    • The next three steps demonstrate the Anti-Clamp, a tool we designed to make the opening procedure easier. If you aren't using the Anti-Clamp, skip down three steps for an alternate method.

    • For complete instructions on how to use the Anti-Clamp, check out this guide.

    • Pull the blue handle backwards to unlock the Anti-Clamp's arms.

    • Slide the arms over either the left or right edge of your iPhone.

    • Position the suction cups near the bottom edge of the iPhone just above the home button—one on the front, and one on the back.

    • Squeeze the cups together to apply suction to the desired area.

    • If you find that the surface of your iPhone is too slippery for the Anti-Clamp to hold onto, you can use tape to create a grippier surface.

  5. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 5, 3 resimden 1. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 5, 3 resimden 2. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 5, 3 resimden 3.
    • Pull the blue handle forwards to lock the arms.

    • Turn the handle clockwise 360 degrees or until the cups start to stretch.

    • Make sure the suction cups remain aligned with each other. If they begin to slip out of alignment, loosen the suction cups slightly and realign the arms.

  6. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 6, 2 resimden 1. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 6, 2 resimden 2.
    • Heat an iOpener and thread it through the arms of the Anti-Clamp.

    • You can also use a hair dryer, heat gun, or hot plate—but extreme heat can damage the display and/or internal battery, so proceed with care.

    • Fold the iOpener so it lays on the bottom edge of the iPhone.

    • Wait one minute to give the adhesive a chance to release and present an opening gap.

    • Insert an opening pick into the gap.

    • If the Anti-Clamp doesn't create a sufficient gap, apply more heat to the area and rotate the handle a quarter turn.

    • Don't crank more than a quarter turn at a time, and wait one minute between turns. Let the Anti-Clamp and time do the work for you.

    • Skip the next three steps.

  7. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Heat the display: adım 7, 1 resimden 1.
    • The next three steps show how to separate the screen using a suction cup.

    • Heating the lower edge of the iPhone will help soften the adhesive securing the display, making it easier to open.

    • Use a hairdryer or prepare an iOpener and apply it to the lower edge of the phone for about 90 seconds in order to soften up the adhesive underneath.

  8. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Separate the display: adım 8, 2 resimden 1. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Separate the display: adım 8, 2 resimden 2.
    • Apply a suction cup to the lower half of the front panel, just above the home button.

    • Be sure the suction cup does not overlap with the home button, as this will prevent a seal from forming between the suction cup and front glass.

  9. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 9, 3 resimden 1. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 9, 3 resimden 2. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 9, 3 resimden 3.
    • Pull up on the suction cup with firm, constant pressure to create a slight gap between the screen and the frame.

    • Insert an opening pick into the gap.

    • The watertight adhesive holding the screen in place is very strong; creating this initial gap takes a significant amount of force. If you're having a hard time opening a gap, apply more heat, and gently rock the screen up and down to weaken the adhesive until you create enough of a gap to insert your tool.

    • Slide the opening pick up the left edge of the phone starting at the lower edge and moving towards the volume control buttons and silent switch, breaking up the adhesive holding the display in place.

    • Stop near the top left corner of the display.

    • Do not try to pry the top edge of the display away from the rear case, as it is held in place by plastic clips that may break.

  11. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Screen information: adım 11, 1 resimden 1.
    • There are delicate cables along the right edge of your iPhone. Don't insert your pick here, as you may damage the cables.

    • Re-insert your tool at the lower right corner of the iPhone, and slide it around the corner and up the right side of the phone to separate the adhesive.

    • Don't insert your pick more than 3 mm, as you may damage the display cables.

  13. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 13, 2 resimden 1. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement: adım 13, 2 resimden 2.
    • Gently pull up on the suction cup to lift up the bottom edge of the display.

    • Do not raise the display more than 15º or you'll risk straining or tearing the ribbon cables connecting the display.

    • Pull on the small nub on the suction cup to remove it from the front panel.

    • Open the iPhone by swinging the display up from the left side, like the back cover of a book.

    • Don't try to fully separate the display yet, as several fragile ribbon cables still connect it to the iPhone's logic board.

    • Lean the display against something to keep it propped up while you're working on the phone.

  17. iPhone 7 Plus LCD and Digitizer Replacement, Battery Disconnection: adım 17, 1 resimden 1.

Step 14 Pic# 3 the second cable damaged , what can i do ?!

Ameed Bader - Yanıt

If you damaged only the cable and nothing else, replacing the display should solve the problem—it will come with new cables attached.

Jeff Suovanen -

For anyone performing hardware exchanges, there is a free app on Apple store called Dr. Phone that can be used to test the several hardware components… Nice to do before closing it up..

H. Alves - Yanıt

Has anyone else had trouble getting the Y000 screws out from the bracket over the home/Touch ID sensor? All other Y000 came out no problem. These are fighting me. The driver seems to be spinning in place as if too big. Follow up question. If I strip these screws, any idea how to get them out then?

jferguson757 - Yanıt

In my situation the Y screw behind the Home/Fingerprint Button seems to be GLUED ON by design to prevent inexperienced non-certified Apple replacers to remove it. So what I did was left it on to prevent stripping the screw and breaking the button. I just CAREFULLY BENT the metal bracket AT AN ANGLE so that I can maneuver the whole assembly into the hole of the screen and remove it.
