    • Avoid prying near bottom right hand side due to LCD Connector

    • Use a plastic opening tool to pry the screen up in the right hand corner.

    The right side with the power switch on top?

    Where is the right hand corner? Is it the corner nearest the USB connector? Farthest from USB connector?

    Thanks!

    • Do not completely remove the screen yet as there is a ZIF connector connected.

    • Lift the screen and digitizer from the case.

    • You may need to use some force due to the glue.

    What is a ZIP connector? What does it look like?

    Hi Beldenr! We happen to have a handy guide for a lot of different types of connectors, including ZIF connectors.
