How to Replace a Screen on iPhone 6 Plus (Fastest way possible)

Hello, guys today we'll explain step by step how to replace a broken screen on your iPhone 6 Plus. You'll need only a few things: iPhone 6 Plus DIY LCD Screen Repair Kit, some tools, and your time.

1) Turn off your mobile phone

Before we even start, discharge your iPhone 6 Plus battery below 25%, because a fully charged lithium battery can catch fire or explode if accidentally punctured.

Turn off your phone completely to avoid damaging it during the repair. Press the Sleep/Wake button for about three seconds until the slider labeled "power off" appears. Swipe it from left to right, and it's turned off.

2) Remove enclosure screws

Use a P2 screwdriver to remove two 3.6mm pentalobe screws that are located next to the lightning connector.

3) Lift the display

To lift the glass you will require an attractions cup, a hard plastic pick, and a heat gun(a hairdryer will likewise work), which you get in the pack aside from the heat gun. The screen is glued to the frame, use a heat gun to heat the outer edges of the display to about 60°C (140°F). You can do it without the heat gun but it's easier with it.

You can do it without the warmth weapon yet it's simpler with it.

Place the suction cup over the Home button or next to it. While lifting the screen with it, insert hard plastic pick between the aluminum frame and the display. Press down the aluminum frame and slide the pick all around the iPhone between the aluminum frame and the display frame. Try not to stick the pick in too far because that could damage the flexible flat display cables.

Use the pick to push the display so the tabs come out of the aluminum frame. Open the display to about a 90º angle and lean it against something to keep it propped up while you're working on the phone.

4) Remove battery bracket

 Remove two Philips screws from the battery connector bracket (Red one is 2.3mm screw and yellow is 3.1mm screw).

5) Disconnect battery connector

 Use a tip of your finger to pry up the battery connector from its socket.

6) Remove the front panel bracket

Use an Philips screwdriver to remove 5 screws securing the bracket. Then simply remove it.

 7) Disconnect all the cables under the front cable bracket

Use a tip of a finger or a flat spudger to pry up and release following cable connectors: Camera and Earpiece speaker, Home Button, Data Cable, Digitizer. Then simply remove the whole front assembly.

 8) Unscrew home button

Unscrew the two 1.8mm Philips screws securing the home button bracket. Then carefully remove the home button bracket from the front panel. After removing metal covering, use the plastic spudger to disconnect the home button cable connector by pushing it up and away from the home button.

 

9) Remove home button

Apply low heat to the home button to soften the adhesive securing its membrane. When its soften enough, use your fingertip constant pressure on the home button from the front side of the display assembly, until the membrane separates from the panel. When you get it out, use the point of a spudger to separate the home button cable from the adhesive securing it to the front panel.

10) Reassemble everything with the new screen
