    • Only insert the spudger as deep as 1/16 of an inch to avoid damage.

    • Use a spudger to carefully pry out the loudspeaker. There is some adhesive underneath so it might be a little bit sticky. You can use an iOpener to loosen it.

    • Remove the loudspeaker.

    • When reassembling your phone, apply new adhesive where it's necessary.

    • Slide the opening pick under the screen around all edges of the phone.

    • If the adhesive gets tough to pry it is likely too cold. Use your iOpener or heat gun to reheat it.

Any advice which adhesive to use? I’ve seen a russian replacement video, it looked like the guy was using some kind of silicone.

I used B-7000 glue. It enables you to release the screen when a second replacement is needed.

Assuming I purchase a screen off of ebay, and replace it using this method, will the touch id still work?
