  • The full back housing can now be removed. Simply apply light pressure near the ear speaker forward and gently remove the housing.
  • Remove the two (2) visible small Phillips screws, located on either side in the middle. Flip the lower portion of the housing down, this will expose a large adhesive pad which will need to be removed to reveal two (2) more small Phillips screws.
  • Using a safe open pry tool, you can now release the rest of the housing covering the motherboard. Glide the pry tool around, releasing the clips.
  • With the motherboard visible, use a safe open pry tool to carefully lift the vibrator motor and allow it to hang connected to the motherboard.
  • Carefully pry the motherboard up, being careful as there are still 2 flex cables connected to the motherboard.
