The connector slides out towards the outside of the device, and mine was pretty sticky so be careful.

Disconnect the LCD ribbon cable from the top and bottom of the battery. It is unnecessary to peel it off of the battery.

Disconnect the digi cable from the top right of the back of the device.
-
-
-
Disconnect the camera flex
-
Disconnect the power/volume/home flex

Remove the 5 speaker assembly screws and pry off the assembly
-
At this point you can also lightly pull the battery away from the back of the LCD. There isn't much adhesive holding it in place.

-
Remove the 5 motherboard screws and gently separate it from the back of the lcd.
-
At this point, the only thing left should be the display assembly
-

Remove the 6 LCD screws and brackets
-
Gently separate the LCD from the frame

-
-
Use a heat gun or hot plate to separate the digitzer and glass from the frame

Before heating the frame its a good idea to remove the camera from the frame so it's not damaged.
