Step 10
Pry up the rear panel by pulling the dental pick counterclockwise in a quick motion. Apply force perpendicular to the plane of the display assembly. You may be afraid to go fast, but going slowly is more likely to bend the case.
Step 11
Use a spudger to free the rear panel from the iPhone along the corner and top.
Step 12
Repeat the same procedure on the other side of the iPhone. Slide the dental pick completely into the square hole. You may need to wiggle the tool and apply a good amount of force to get it to go all the way.
ugh. i totally mangled my case. snapped off the 2 outer screw brackets... broke my dental pick, too. and my small screwdriver. thank goodness for craftsman tools! ;)
i was pretty disheartened by the whole thing, but i keep it in a hard shell anyway so it's not that noticeable.
wich dental pick should I use? I´d bought some but they twist or didn´t fit on the scare... thx in advance and really good guide!!
