Introduction
Use this guide to remove the plastic midframe from your Fairphone to access internal components.
What you need
-

Remove the five 3.9 mm Phillips #000 screws securing the midframe to the display assembly.

-
-
Use an opening pick to carefully pry the midframe away from the display assembly.
-
Start just below the volume rocker and work your way down toward the bottom of the phone, freeing the plastic clips along the side.
Some stupid person put a sticker on the fifth screw. If you can not find the fifth screw, check if there are any BLACK (yes, black) stickers on top of them. Also, which 'designer' made the first design choice for plastic clips? I WILL FIND YOU. AND KILL YOU. *!&*^#% stupidest way to affirm or secure something!
You also can start from the interior (white pieces all around batterie place)

The three upper -next to the SIM blocks- screws are a bit longer that the three others. It is important to keep them like this because if not, they will not tight to the whole.

There are only 5 screws. I see none longer than others.
