Sometimes, it becomes difficult to contain further breakage of a phone screen that has cracked already. Did your iPhone 5C slip out of your grip? If this has caused breakage of your phone screen and you really cannot hold back your tears in agony, relax. Of course you can do it all by yourself and if you are not confident head straight to a mobile repair shop. They will fix your problem. However, if you prefer a DIY approach you can go through the following tips:
- Switch off your iPhone handset:
Switch off the power supply of your iPhone. This is the basic step to remember. Now proceed to your next step.
- Remove security screws:
There are a couple of security screws, sitting on both the sides of a dock connector. Take them off. These screws secure your phone’s screen to its frame.
- Work on the display assembly:
Yes! Take it off too. Position a suction pipe right above your phone’s home button. Take the iPhone with one hand tightly and pull the suction pipe till the screen’s bottom comes off. Now, slowly and gently raise the iPhone screen followed by exposing a part of the front assembly which is linked with the phone’s logic board. Now, remove four screws holding the shield covering display cables. After removing the screws, take off the shield. Take a spudger tool to gently remove all three cables. This is how the display assembly is freed from the phone’s body.
- Remove Home Button Assembly:
To do this take off the couple of screws present on both sides of a shield. Most companies offering phone repairs in Nottingham use specified tool to ensure that adjacent contacts don’t tear off during the process of taking off screws. This process is soon to be followed by removal of the Home Button along with the rubber gasket.
- Remove earpiece and front camera:
Take off these two screws which hold the bracket and earpiece speaker in place. Gently lift the bracket upwards and bend the clips outwards to easily take off the earpiece speaker. Now, focus on the front camera. In a gentle way unfold the front camera assembly cable. Pull out the cable from the frame. Take the spudger tool to loosen the cable sitting right underneath the earpiece. Remove four screws fastening the phone’s heat shield. Take off the 5th screw as well.

Coming back to reassembling of the device, place everything you have dismantled and dislodged. Take off the cracked or broken display and reattach the fresh display. Carefully assemble all cables, screws and brackets. Besides, be a little careful when assembling the clips. They should be placed in line for the display to fit correctly.
After you are done replacing the screen, reattach the screws to the dock connector. Finally! You have a new screen on your phone. Turn on its power and start using it.
