      • Insert the spudger between the midframe and the display assembly.

      • Gently pry up the midframe.

      • When working with electronics, it's important to choose a tool that's ESD-safe to avoid accidental damage to the device. The metal spudger is great when you need serious prying power, but the regular black nylon spudger or a plastic opening tool should be used whenever possible.

      • Gently lift up on the clip until it comes free.

      • Remove the midframe from the phone.
