    • Insert guitar picks and plastic opening tool to separate front assembly from back cover.

Does the headphone jack have a part number?

I can't find the replacement part anywhere online.

Headphone jack part number 9-HU-2909

I am searching all over the www for headphone jack. It's listed at two stores for $9.99. But, no stock.

Headphone jacks for every other silly phone are available all over the internet for couple of $.

Awesome guide! I used this guide to replace my rear camera because the old camera’s focus was stuck in one position (which is a common problem with 6p’s apparently). The guide was spot on, and it has good pictures showing you what to do. It only took me about 30-40 minutes to complete.

Very useful, even multiple years later. I used it to complete a full mainboard swap as I corrupted the partitions on my original board. I followed this guide and it worked perfectly. Patience is key for the glass camera lens.
