Title: A Step-by-Step Guide to iPhone 12 Screen Replacement

Introduction: Hello, Simon here. Today, we’re tackling a common issue many iPhone users face – a cracked screen. In this blog post, I’ll guide you through the process of replacing the screen on an iPhone 12. We’ll be using a full assembly replacement screen for this tutorial. Let’s get started!

Tools You’ll Need:

• Pentalobe P2 screwdriver
• Metal prying tool
• Tri-point (Y) screwdriver
• Phillips screwdriver
• Safety goggles

Step 1: Power Off and Unscrew Ensure your iPhone is powered off. Using the Pentalobe P2 screwdriver, remove the two screws next to the charging port.

Step 2: Pry Open the Phone With the metal prying tool, carefully insert it between the glass and the base of the phone. If you have a heat gun or hair dryer, it can be helpful to warm up the adhesive for easier removal. Pry around the edges to loosen the screen.

Step 3: Open the Phone Once the adhesive is cut around the corners, you can flip open the phone to the left. This exposes the internal components.

Step 4: Disconnect the Battery Using the tri-point screwdriver, remove the screws securing the bracket over the battery connector. Then, use the plastic prying tool to disconnect the battery.

Step 5: Remove the Front Speaker Assembly Continue using the tri-point screwdriver to remove the screws holding the front speaker. Gently transfer this to your new screen.

Step 6: Transfer Components to New Screen Carefully transfer the ear speaker to the new screen. This involves gently removing it from the old screen and fitting it onto the new one. Be cautious with the flex cable as it is delicate.

Step 7: Reassemble and Test Reconnect all the cables and the battery. Ensure the top part of the screen sits flush before snapping the rest into place. Don’t forget to screw back the pentalobe screws near the charging port. Power on your phone to test if the screen and touch functionality are working correctly.
