Resumen del Video

  1. Reemplazo de la batería del iPhone X, Tornillos Pentalobe: paso 1, imagen 1 de 1
    • Antes de comenzar, descarga la bateria de tu iPhone por debajo de un 25%. Una bateria de litio cargada puede producir fuego o explotar si la pinchamos accidentalmente

    • Apaga tu dispositivo para comenzar a desarmarlo

    • Remueve los dos tornillos pentalobe de 6.9 mm de largo de la parte inferior del marco del iPhone

    • Si los tornillos están pelados o dañados, reemplace los tornillos.

    • Abrir la pantalla del dispositivo compromete los sellos a prueba de agua. Obtén algunos sellos de repuesto antes de proceder con el reemplazo, o ten cuidado de exponer tu teléfono a los líquidos si armas de nuevo el iPhone sin los sellos

    There are 6.81mm long screws!

    Daniel - Contestar

    One of the pentalobe screws is stripped :( - suggestions for how to get it out?

    cgtyoder - Contestar

    same situation here

    kaunomarcius - Contestar

    Same issue for me too, how do I get the stripped screw out?

    patronics - Contestar

    Update: I was able to get the “stripped” screw out using another Pentalobe-2 screwdriver bit from another company. It seems it wasn’t the screw, but the screw driver that was actually stripped. Hence why the other screwdriver kit I got came with 3 of this bit, I suppose.

    patronics - Contestar

    I ended up going to a jewelry store, and they drilled down into the screw, with of course an incredibly tiny bit. That allowed me to insert the P2 driver, and I was able to unscrew it at that point. Good luck!

    cgtyoder - Contestar

    Same issue with the stripping. The tip of the iFixit P2 head in my $70 kit just ground off on the first screw and that was that. Not much you can do.

    Kyle Harris - Contestar

    yes correct the same happened to me, the screws were perfect shaped never been open and as soon as i used the P2 it stripped the screws, seems like the P2 is slightly smaller but Dremel kit with a very small drill bits and precise knife tool is the way to go.

    Dulce Vidal - Contestar

    This step in automatically followed through, without any thought. Why remove these screws? Can anybody explain? The Screen is detachable all the same, with them well screwed in…

    Uri - Contestar

    These screws attach to a plate that’s part of the screen half of the phone. If you succeed in detaching the screen without removing those, it would seem reasonable that you will have damaged that plate or its ability to keep the two halves together.

    Dan Long -

    @Dan Long is right

    Uri -

    Clean out the pentalobe screw heads first so the tool goes all the way in. A small sewing needle works well to loosen any build up and then press some putty/chewing gum into the screw head and pull away quickly for a final clean out.

    William Olstad - Contestar

    The this kit should include screws because you’re going to strip them. Can’t even get past step one. Did anybody figure this out

    justin - Contestar

    Never opened my phone ever, when I went to look at the first step.. I noticed one of my screws was stripped. I thought it was impossible, but I removed the non stripped one, then once I got to the stripped one.. I learned my assumptions were correct. I bought this one straight from the apple site years ago ahaha Any tips to remove the stripped screw?

    Clarence Williams - Contestar

    William Olstad's tip about cleaning the screws with a needle and a bit of poster putty worked well for me. There was a lot of crud in there! The opening is shallow, so it's easy to see how the screwdriver wouldn't catch with even a bit of grit in the way, No problem getting the pentalobe screws out with the ifixit screwdriver.

    punkinann - Contestar

    If all else fails, very carefully cut a slot across the head of the screw with a Dremel tool using a diamond bit that dentist will gladly give you - I ask my dentist for used bits; and chuck them in a drill bit chuck designed for Dremel. The slot allows you to use a tiny, straight blade screwdriver. You can reuse the screw or replace it with a new pentalobe screw.

    • Si tu iPhone tiene una pantalla rota, mantén contenidas las roturas adicionales y evita daños corporales durante la reparación cubriendo el vidrio con cinta adhesiva.

    • Coloca tiras superpuestas de cinta de embalaje transparente sobre la pantalla del iPhone hasta cubrir toda la cara.

    • Usa anteojos de seguridad para proteger tus ojos de cualquier vidrio que se desprenda durante la reparación.

    • Si no puedes hacer que la ventosa se adhiera en los próximos pasos, dobla un trozo de cinta resistente (como cinta adhesiva) en un asa y levanta la pantalla con eso.

    • Si todo lo demás falla, puedes pegar la ventosa a la pantalla.

    • Los siguientes dos pasos muestran el Anti-Clamp, una herramienta que diseñamos para facilitar el procedimiento de apertura. Si no estás utilizando Anti-Clamp, salta tres pasos hacia abajo para obtener un método alternativo.

    • Para obtener instrucciones completas sobre cómo usar Anti-Clamp, consulta esta guía.

    • Tira de la manija azul hacia atrás para desbloquear los brazos del Anti-Clamp.

    • Desliza los brazos sobre el borde izquierdo o derecho de tu iPhone.

    • Coloca las ventosas cerca del borde inferior del iPhone, una en el frente y otra en la parte posterior.

    • Aprieta las copas para aplicar succión en el área deseada.

    • Si encuentras que la superficie de tu dispositivo es demasiado resbaladiza para que el Anti-Clamp la sujete, puedes usar cinta de embalaje para crear una superficie más adherente.

    • Calienta un iOpener y pásalo por los brazos del Anti-Clamp.

    • También puedes utilizar un secador de pelo, una pistola de calor o una plancha caliente, pero el calor extremo puede dañar la pantalla y/o la batería interna, así que procede con cuidado.

    • Dobla el iOpener de forma que quede sobre el borde inferior del iPhone.

    • Espera un minuto para que el adhesivo se despegue y se abra el hueco.

    • Inserta una púa de apertura en el hueco que hay debajo de la pantalla y el bisel de plástico, no en la propia pantalla.

    • Si el Anti-Clamp no crea un espacio suficiente, aplica más calor al área y gira la manija en el sentido de las agujas del reloj media vuelta.

    • No dés más de media vuelta a la vez y espera un minuto entre vueltas. Deja que el Anti-Clamp y el tiempo hagan el trabajo por ti.

    • Omite los siguientes tres pasos.

    DO NOT separate the glass from the plastic bumper or rim around it. These instructions don't clarify that the pick has to be inserted between the plastic rim and the metal body. It is likely that the glass will lift slightly off the plastic surround before the plastic will lift out of the metal body. I had success sliding a card or pick back and forth along the bottom edge of the plastic rim while pulling on the suction cup. Eventually there was a space large enough for the pick to go under the plastic rim.

    Anessa - Contestar

    Thanks for pointing this out! I'll revise this step to clarify this point.

    • Al calentar el borde inferior del iPhone se ablandará el adhesivo que sujeta la pantalla facilitando la apertura.

    • Usa un secador de pelo o una pistola de aire caliente o prepara un iOpener y aplícalo en el borde inferior del iPhone durante un minuto para ablandar el adhesivo que se encuentra debajo.

    General tip regarding heating necessary to remove adhesive:

    consider using a heated tip of a small screwdriver or metal spudger (not the one made of plastic, provided in kit), rather than to heat the device itself.

    Uri - Contestar

    You then need to be careful about the temp of the tool which if hot enough can melt plastic components or harm them. Keeping the heat source (heat gun) far enough away from the object that you’ll eventually melt the glue but would be much harder to melt components. I try to keep 4” or 5” gap between the source & object

    Sandman619 -

    Thanks for the info. Could a air convector do the job

    dominique.br - Contestar

    When opening a device that has previously been worked on, and on which the adhesive might not have been replaced, be extremely carful when opening the phone. It will open much more easily than expected. If you’re not careful you might rip a cable.

    jonpol - Contestar

    Is this tool required or can I just use the Anti-Clamp by itself.

    Mikail - Contestar

    If you have a 3d printer, heat the bed to 80c and put the phone screen side down on it for 30 secs

    • Si estás utilizando una sola ventosa, aplícala en el borde inferior del teléfono, evitando la porción curvada del cristal.

    If you were using some form of screen protector, it may come off first as soon as you pull on the suction cup. Do not be alarmed. That is normal behavior.

    Alain-Daniel Wa-Baguma - Contestar

    3m VSB double stick tape will stick to the screen when the suction cups fail (see my comment on step 1)

    • Tira de la ventosa con una presión firme y constante para crear un ligero hueco entre el panel frontal y la caja trasera.

    • Inserta una púa de apertura en el espacio debajo de la pantalla y el marco de plástico, no en la pantalla en sí.

    • El adhesivo impermeable que mantiene la pantalla en su lugar es muy fuerte; crear este hueco inicial requiere una cantidad significativa de fuerza. Si te cuesta abrir un hueco, aplica más calor y mueve suavemente la pantalla hacia arriba y hacia abajo para debilitar el adhesivo hasta que crees un hueco suficiente para insertar la herramienta.

    In addition to safety goggles, I would recommend you also wear good gloves to avoid getting cut with the glass as you try to pry it open.

    Alain-Daniel Wa-Baguma - Contestar

    The top about applying more heat and gently rocking the screen up and down to weaken the adhesive did the trick for me. Thank you!

    Monil Shah - Contestar

    There needs to be more clarity on where to shove the opening pick into. There is actually two openings that the pry tool can be forced into: one below the black plastic bezel, and one above the black plastic bezel. When I heated my screen with a warming pad and pulled up the suction cup, it actually pried apart above the black plastic bezel which removed the touch screen from the display panel. With this being the first newer iPhone I'd opened since the 3GS, I didn't realize that I was opening the wrong opening as the directions only mentioned one opening and did not warn of this. I was pretty disappointed in the lack of mentioning this, as I was taking my time and following it to the tee. As a result, it destroyed my original iPhone screen.

    Caleb Davison - Contestar

    DO NOT separate the glass from the plastic bumper or rim around it. As someone else noted, these instructions don't clarify that the pick has to be inserted between the plastic rim and the metal body of the phone. When pulling upwards with the suction cup, it is likely that the glass will lift slightly off the plastic surround before the plastic will lift out of the metal body. I had success sliding a card or pick back and forth along the bottom edge of the plastic rim while pulling on the suction cup. Eventually there was a space large enough for the pick to go under the plastic rim.

    Anessa - Contestar

    Thank you for pointing this out! I've updated the step to reflect this.

    Arthur Shi -

    The suction cup doesn't work at all... The minimum force I apply to lift it up, it comes off completely. This is very frustrating!!!

    • Desliza la púa de apertura por la esquina inferior izquierda y por el borde izquierdo del iPhone, cortando el adhesivo que mantiene la pantalla en su lugar.

    • No insertes tu púa más de 3 mm, ya que puedes dañar los componentes internos.

  10. Reemplazo de la batería del iPhone X, Información de la pantalla: paso 10, imagen 1 de 1
    • Hay cables delicados a lo largo del borde derecho de tu iPhone. No insertes tu púa aquí, ya que puedes dañar los cables.

    Wouldn’t it be better to put this part BEFORE the step where you have to pry open the phone?

    Jan D. Höllwarth - Contestar

    • Re-inserta tu púa en el borde inferior del iPhone y deslízala a lo largo del lado derecho para continuar separando el adhesivo.

    • No insertes tu púa más de 3 mm, ya que puedes dañar los cables de la pantalla.

    If you have flat feeler gauges (for adjusting engine valve tappet clearance, ignition points … old school) the .003” thick gauge goes right in. Work your way up in thickness until you can get the pic or supplied pry tool in. Don’t insert metal feeler gauge in too far, just enough to hold crack open. I didn’t need to use the suction cup. I used a hot/cold gel pack heated in microwave to heat edges to soften glue a bit. Made sure it wasn’t so hot I couldn’t stand it on my skin.

    • El borde superior de la pantalla está asegurado con pegamento y clips.

    • Desliza la púa de apertura alrededor de la esquina superior de la pantalla, mientras tiras suavemente o mueve la pantalla hacia abajo en la dirección del puerto Lightning.

    • Los clips se romperán si usas demasiada fuerza. Trabaja con cuidado y se paciente.

    • No insertes tu púa más de 3 mm, ya que puedes dañar el conjunto de sensores del panel frontal.

    • Desliza la púa hacia la esquina opuesta y corte cualquier adhesivo restante que asegure la pantalla.

    These are the best instructions I’ve ever read for anything.! Thank you!

    • Abre el iPhone moviendo la pantalla hacia arriba desde el lado izquierdo, como si abrieras la contratapa de un libro.

    • No trates de separar completamente la pantalla aun ya que varios frágiles cables planos todavía la conectan con la placa lógica del iPhone.

    • Como se muestra, asegúrate de que el marco salga con la pantalla y no se quede atascado en el teléfono.

    • Apoya la pantalla contra algo para mantenerla en alto mientras trabajas con el teléfono.

    • Durante el ensamblado, alinea los clips a lo largo del borde superior y con cuidado presiona el borde superior en su lugar antes de encajar el resto de la pantalla. Si no se encaja fácilmente, verifica la condición de los clips alrededor del perímetro de la pantalla para asegurarte que no estén doblados.

    My phone came apart in a different way and looks not right the little box at the top of the display as actually bolted to the top of the frame body I think something went really wrong when I opened it.

    Mike Kostersitz - Contestar

    It opens like a book but be careful not to open it all the way — only as far as shown in the photo. Otherwise it will strain the thin cable that connects the sensor module and then no more FaceID for you (or, as it turns out me). This could have been made more explicit in the instructions.

    Richard Tucker - Contestar

    It opens like a book but be careful not to open it all the way  … the small stainless steel tabs that hold the screen around the metal frame, that are on the bend place (right side of the phone)… are tend to bend, you can straighten them back to 90 deg. but the plastic base that they are on? very fragile- watch out not to break the plastic bezel … it may come apart of the glass.

    dabur872 - Contestar

    Advice for re-assembly: Before closing up the phone with the seal, check if phone is powering up again and speaker, mic and sensors are still working. If done this check even before installing the board connector bracket in Step 13.

  15. Reemplazo de la batería del iPhone X, Ensamblaje de pantalla: paso 15, imagen 1 de 1
    • Remueve los cinco tornillos Y000 que sujetan el soporte de conector de la placa lógica y que tienen los siguientes largos:

    • Tres tornillos de 1.1 mm

    • Un tornillo de 3.1 mm

    • Un tornillo de 3.7 mm

    • Durante esta reparación, lleva la cuenta de cada tornillo y asegúrate de que vaya exactamente al mismo lugar de donde salió para evitar dañar tu iPhone.

    One thing I found helpful for replacing the screws was to use only the 000screwdriver tip, without the handle. This way, the tip isn’t magnetized and the screw doesn’t tend to ‘roll’ off the screwdriver tip (the screw has almost no mass, so the head (largest surface) is pulled around to the side of the screwdriver tip when magnetized).

    My 3.1mm screw had a stripped head, could not remove it. (Factory defect, this iPhone was never opened)

    So I had to give up removing the display assembly, and jumped directly to battery replacement, Step 20.

    That was tricky as I had to keep the display at 90º with a risk of breaking display connectors, but hopefully the replacement went well.

    I would not recommend to do this but to follow the guide, but, in case someone encounters a similar issue, that could help!

    vingu - Contestar

    My 1.1mm screw had a stripped head. Used a 3mm steel drill to cut the head off (just 1 mm deep haha) so i could remove the bracket.

    Renout - Contestar

    Be careful on reassembly. Keep the screen supported and not moving. I had difficulty getting the screws in and ended up ruining the screen connectivity at the back of the screen where the ribbon cables go in near the center. I was trying to hand hold the screen and it ended up moving around too much.

    SETH GREEN - Contestar

    To keep track of the screws, I copy the photos showing their places, then arrange these photos on document in Pages, print it. Next I apply two sided sticky tape (the roll-on type). So all screws have their corresponding places …

    • Remueve el soporte.

    • El soporte puede estar ligeramente adherido en su lugar. Levanta cuidadosamente para separarlo.

    • Durante el reensamblaje es un buen momento de encender tu iPhone para verificar las funciones antes de sellar la pantalla en su lugar. Asegúrate de apagar tu iPhone completamente antes de seguir trabajando.

    I tested it, then proceeded to close up the device without the bracket. Do I need to reopen and install? All connections are good?

    monastra7 - Contestar

    The bracket helps those many connectors underneath maintain good contact. Probably in the short term nothing bad will happen, but I’d hang onto the bracket and reinstall it when convenient.

    Jeff Suovanen -

    Agree with Jeff

    cgtyoder -

    I tested all imaginable functionality on the new OLED screen. Taptics are fine. Then, I noticed that the battery wasn't charging. Any ideas as to what could have gone wrong?

    Monica - Contestar

    for me, the replacement battery was completely dead, small panic when the power-on button was pressed, but quickly realised that this was the situation, and now watching the phone take a power cycle.

    James Stanbridge - Contestar

    Before clicking the screen assembly back, I tried to test the iPhone by pushing the start button, but nothing happened. After taking off the bracket, reseating the plugs I tried again - nothing happened! Then I plugged in the charging cable connected with the iMac, and it started immediately. So if the phone does not start using the startup button, it might just be a glitch when reconnecting the battery.

    • Usa la punta de un spudger o una uña para hacer palanca en el conector de la batería y levantarlo de su zócalo en la placa lógica.

    • Trata de no dañar el sello de silicona negra que rodea este y otras conexiones de placa. Estos sellos proporcionan protección adicional contra la entrada de agua y polvo.

    • Dobla el conector para separarlo de la placa lógica para prevenir que entre accidentalmente en contacto con el zócalo y que proporcione alimentación al teléfono durante la reparación.

    cosa può succedere se non si disconnette la scheda logica'?

    luca.valli - Contestar

    note: be careful not to crush or puncture your battery at this step!! I gave mine a minor dent, which I hope wont be a problem.. but something to keep in mind for fxlks in the future!

    • Usa la punta de un spudger o una uña para desconectar el conector de cable de panel OLED.

    • Para volver a colocar los conectores de prensa como este, alinea con cuidado y presiona hacia abajo en un lado hasta que encaje en su lugar, luego repite en el otro lado. No presiona hacia abajo en el medio. Si el conector está desalineado, los pasadores pueden doblarse, causando daños permanentes.

    Snap ‘em in like little Legos.

    • Usa la punta de un spudger para levantar el conector del cable de digitalizador de su zócalo.

    • La ubicación empotrada de este conector dificulta la reconexión. Tómate tu tiempo y alinéalo con cuidado, luego presiona suavemente en su lugar con la yema del dedo, primero un lado y luego el otro. Deberías sentir que hace clic en su lugar

    • Si alguna parte de tu pantalla no responde al tacto después de su reparación, desconecta la batería y vuelve a colocar el conector, asegurándote de que encaje completamente en su lugar y de que no haya polvo u otra obstrucción en el zócalo.

    This was probably the hardest part other than trying to get the screen off with the crappy suction cups. I re-installed the bracket only the find out that the touch screen would not respond to touch. Had to remove the five screws, remove the bracket and reseat the recessed screen connector. Reseating the bracket took another 10+ minutes. I carefully used the angled forceps to grab the cable and align the connector being careful not to damage the cable.

    Once you have the connector seated, I would reconnect the battery, power on the phone, and check the touch screen response before re-installing the bracket (step 13).

    Tawan Khamapirad - Contestar

    Yeah, this was probably the trickiest part of the reassembly. The power connector cable kept getting in the way so I moved it carefully but fully out of the way. Then it was a matter of fiddling around with it a bit and being careful not to force it on.

    Jeffrey Hoy -

    I was positive that I had messed something up, I had powered up the phone to test three different times and everything seemed find except there was no touch at all. On my fourth attempt, I carefully examined everything for dust and debris (blowing gently), and I did notice that a corner of the connector (more like part of the ribbon) was bent slightly, and I straightened it. I don't know if it was the ribbon or some tiny debris, but after reseating a fourth time, it worked.

    Pol Llovet - Contestar

    Very important part of the tutorial. Be careful and patience! In my case the screen and camera didn't respond after assemble, so I tried again to reconnect the connector like tutorial said and it worked well. Now my iPhone feel like a new one 💪🏼

    • El cable flexible de ensamblaje de sensor de panel frontal está adherido en su lugar.

    • Con cuidado levanta el cable hasta que el adhesivo se separe.

    Do this sensor affect face id?

    bonglkv - Contestar

    It is part of the face id part so yes. This is the ear piece too so if the ribbon tears there is a chance the ear piece will stop working as well.

    Stephen Patterson - Contestar

    Be super careful handling this ribbon particularly. I did a battery install and, when I was done, I had a phone with a new battery and no Face ID. That’s a $300 Apple repair, and no 3rd party shop will touch it. I believe the ribbon lays vertically (i.e., perpendicular to the “floor” of the phone, against the side edge of the battery. During the re-install, I must have forced the ribbon into position after seating the connector, causing fatal flexing of the ribbon. (Don’t know this for sure, but I see another comment saying that this cable is part of Face ID.) Anyway, bottom line: BE CAREFUL REMOVING AND REINSTALLING THIS RIBBON!

    Jonathan Pines - Contestar

    My flex cable was more than lightly adhered in place. I needed to use a guitar pic or similar to help encourage adhesive to separate. I wouldn’t pull too hard like shown in pictures unless you had just the right grip on the ribbon cable so as to avoid damaging flex cable. See note above (5/31/20)

    William Olstad - Contestar

    Bizarre — it turns out my whole front panel sensor assembly came entire off of the front screen and is stuck to the logic board.

    Karl Jarvis - Contestar

    I also found the glue quite recluctant to release so I applied a second or two of heat using the wife's hair dryer which softened it and the cable lifted much easier then. Be careful not to apply too much heat though which could then impact other internal components.

    my iphone x doesn't have a front panel sensor? in fact, it looks completely different than the picture???

    Kenneth McLeod - Contestar

    @kennethmcleod, most likely you've separated the screen frame from the screen itself. We see this most commonly when people neglect to remove the pentalobe screws next to the charging port. Usually the cure is to take out those screws, then repeat the screen removal process on the frame that's still attached to the phone.

    Jerry Wheeler -

    You don't need to disconnect the front sensor to change the screen. Just leave it connected and remove from the screen side.

    Anthony Boshell - Contestar

  22. Reemplazo de la batería del iPhone X: paso 22, imagen 1 de 1

    I tried this and broke the cable can it still repair

    Alexis Rodriguez - Contestar

    At this point I would have found it easier to remove the glue from the edges than later on when I was reassembling it. I bought the kit that had the replacement glue in it.

    Grant - Contestar

    Excellent guide! Would love to have a link to moving the sensor assembly from the old display to the new here.

    Nicole - Contestar

    CAUTION:

    Removing the Taptic Engine or Speaker in next step is optional and the guide continues as this was per se needed.

    Unnecessary work and also If you remove the speaker you lose the adhesive gasket and this is not included in the scope of delivery of the "Battery replacement" offering.

    So do not remove and avoid losing waterproofing.

    I wish I seen this before I did all that! Thank you for that information. Next time I do something like this. I'm gonna pay more attention to the comments.

    Removing the Taptic Engine and speaker greatly improves your chances of getting the battery adhesive strips out intact. If those break, you’ll have a much tougher time.

    Jeff Suovanen -

    Boy, I tried to skip removing these items but was unable to get the glue strips out with them in place, not much to grab and tabs were kind of stuck to a seam in the battery, and hard to tell the difference between the seam and the strip tabs. For me I had to remove these items to get this done.

    marshallburchard -

    I stopped removing things after getting the display side off. There were 3 screws stripped on the speaker cover which wouldn't come out so I punted. Just pried the battery out with a smudger tool and some patience, starting at the top and working towards the bottom. New battery is in and working fine.

    Does anyone know the purpose of this bracket "with grounding pads"? What would be the possible side effects if it was damaged or not connected properly during reassembly?

    Anne Aunyme - Contestar

    I had to remove the tactic and speaker could not get the glue strips out so glad the steps to do so were in this guide.

    P Bond - Contestar

    Sure would like to know WHY the warning "Be careful not to touch the three rows of grounding pads..." What would or could happen if I did touch them??

    Chad Gagnon - Contestar

    Removing the battery strips is a major PITA, just skip this step and everything onwards, remove the one strip on the top part of the battery (according to step 33) and for the bottom part of the battery, pry it off with a plastic spudger.

    Yes, this is not the elegant solution, but the quickest and easiest one. This method is better, as you don't want to keep the old battery anyway, so why bother. (You must not puncture the battery though! But as long as you're only working with a plastic tool and are careful, nothing can happen from my experience.)

    As mentioned in a comment by timblake2112 (see step 29), this step is not necessary and can be skipped skipped. I would advise you to do so, as removing your speaker is guaranteed to ruin your gasket and rubber seal. This will result in loss of water resistancy of your iPhone and could potentially harm the sound quality of your speaker.

    Try removing the Taptic Engine without removing the speaker. It might still be possible removing the battery adhesive strips and your speaker will stay in its original condition.

    • Al levantar el altavoz, ten cuidado de no dañar el cable flexible que has desconectado. Si es necesario, sosténlo hacia un lado así el altavoz tiene espacio para salir.

    • Inserta una spudger bajo el borde superior del altavoz cerca del borde de la caja del iPhone.

    • Suavemente haz palanca y levanta el borde superior del altavoz.

    • Al volver a instalar el altavoz, verifica la posición del cable flexible y asegúrate de que no quede atrapado por debajo del altavoz.

    • Remueve el altavoz.

    • La junta de adhesivo del altavoz no es reusable. Despega cualquier residuo de adhesivo restante con pinzas.

    • Para ayudar a proteger contra la entrada de agua y polvo, remplaza la junta de adhesivo durante el reensamblaje. Prepara el área limpiándola con un poco de alcohol isopropílico y un paño anti-pelusa o filtro de café así la junta se adhiere adecuadamente. Instala una nueva junta en el altavoz y luego instala el altavoz.

    You don’t need to remove the speaker and ruin its gasket. You can wiggle and slide the taptic engine out without removing the speaker. I’ve done this twice on rear shell replacement jobs.

    Maybe I'm a bit daft, but where's the instruction just how to line up the speaker gasket when replacing? I only have one so I'd like to avoid wrecking it. And I completely cleaned off the old one in order to do a good job of things. Why no simple instruction from part supply link?

    • La batería del iPhone X está sujetada a la caja trasera mediante cuatro piezas de adhesivo: una sobre la celda superior y tres sobre la celda inferior.

    • Cada pieza de adhesivo tiene una lengüeta negra en el extremo que se encuentra ligeramente adherida al borde extremo de la batería.

    • Separa la lengüeta del adhesivo de la primera batería del borde inferior de la batería.

    • Cada lengüeta tiene un pequeño bucle en el centro. Introduce una herramienta a través de ese bucle si tienes problemas para sujetar la lengüeta.

    • No pinches la batería con herramientas puntiagudas. Una batería perforada podría perder sustancias químicas peligrosas o prenderse fuego.

    • Repite el paso anterior para separar las dos lengüetas de adhesivo restantes del borde inferior de la batería.

    • Ten cuidado de no dañar el conector del cable del altavoz justo debajo de la lengüeta de adhesivo en el centro.

    • En los siguientes pasos, tirarás de cada lengüeta para estirar lentamente el adhesivo que se encuentra bajo la batería. Este adhesivo especial que se estira y libera pierde su pegamento cuando se lo estira y se sale en tu mano permitiéndote levantar la batería con facilidad.

    • Si las tiras se rompen, no te preocupes. No siempre funcionan como deben. Sigue leyendo los pasos adicionales para remover tiras rotas.

    • Para aumentar las posibilidades de éxito:

    • No presiones la batería. Sujeta el iPhone firmemente de sus lados.

    • Mantén las tiras planas y sin arrugas mientras tiras.

    • Tira muy lentamente, dándole tiempo a la cinta para que se estira y separe. Lleva 15-30 segundos de estiramiento para remover cada tira.

    • Tira en ángulo bajo así la tira no se rompe a lo largo del borde inferior de la batería.

    • Si la tira se rompe por debajo de la batería y no se puede recuperar, dirígete a las otras tiras y luego continúa con los pasos adicionales que siguen.

    • Toma una de las lengüetas externas adhesivas de la batería y tira lentamente alejándote de la batería hacia la parte inferior del iPhone.

    • Jala constantemente manteniendo tensión constante en la tira hasta que salga de entre la batería y la caja trasera.

    • La tira se estirará múltiples veces su largo original. Continúa jalando y sujetando la tira cerca del la batería si es necesario.

    • Si las lengüetas adhesivas de la batería se rompen durante el proceso de removerlas, usa tus dedos o pinzas desafiladas para recuperar el largo restante del adhesivo y continuar jalando.

    • Si cualquiera de las tiras adhesivas se rompen por debajo de la batería y no puede recuperarse, intenta remover el resto de las tiras y luego procede como se explica más abajo.

    I found it easier to grab the end of the adhesive strip sideways with narrow tweezers, "twirl " the tweezers to wrap the strip around them a few times, then gently pull the strip with the tweezers.

    • La última lengüeta está muy cerca de el hardware de identificación de rostro. Si se daña, el identificador de rostro solo puede ser reparado por Apple, así que trabaja con cuidado.

    • Despega y separa la lengüeta de la tira adhesiva final, en el borde superior de la celda de bateria superior.

    • Jala y remueve la tira adhesiva final.

    • La tira podría golpear la batería cuando se separa del iPhone, así que mantén la mano sobre la batería para protegerla sin presionarla ya que la presión agregada podría hacer que la cinta se rompa por debajo de la batería.

    • Si has sacado las cuatro tiras adhesiva exitosamente, saltéate el paso siguiente.

    • Si el adhesivo se rompe debajo de la batería y no puede ser retirado, aplica algunas gotas de alcohol isopropil de alta concentración (arriba de 90%) bajo el borde de la batería en el área de la(s) tira(s) adhesiva(s) rota(s).

    • Si alguna de las tiras adhesivas se rompió y la batería sigue pegada a la caja trasera, prepara un iOpener o usa un secador de pelo para calentar la caja trasera directamente detrás de la batería.

    • Calentar el iPhone hasta que la caja trasera esté ligeramente muy caliente al tacto. No sobrecalientes el iPhone o podrías accidentalmente prender fuego a la batería.

    • Voltea el teléfono y pasa un hilo (como hilo dental o una cuerda de guitarra) por debajo de la batería.

    • Coloca los extremos del hilo alrededor de un paño (o usa guantes) para protegerte los dedos.

    • Tira del hilo de lado a lado como si estuviera serruchando algo por el largo de la batería para separar el adhesivo. Esto puede llevar algo de tiempo ya que el adhesivo tarde en deformarse pero con paciencia se liberará . No deformes o dañes la batería.

    • Si eliges utilizar herramientas para palanquear para levantar la batería del teléfono, utiliza precaución extrema porque podrías dañar los cables planos o la bobina de carga inalámbrica directamente por debajo de la batería.

    • Toma la batería desde el borde inferior y remuévala del iPhone.

    • Si queda alguna solución alcohólica en el teléfono, límpiala cuidadosamente o deja que se seque al aire antes de instalar la nueva batería.

    • Vuelve a instalar el Motor Táptico y el altavoz antes de instalar una batería nueva. Esto ayuda a mantener la batería alineada correctamente durante la instalación.

    • Antes de adherir la batería de repuesto, vuelve a conectar temporalmente el conector de la batería al zócalo de la placa lógica. Esto asegura que la batería está correctamente alineada en su hueco.

    • Adhiere la batería, desconéctala y continúa montando tu dispositivo.

    • Si tu nueva batería no viene con adhesivos, consulta esta guía para ayudar a reemplazar las tiras adhesivas.

    • Realiza una reinicio forzado luego del reensamblaje. Esto puede prevenir varios problemas simplificar su resolución.

    When reinstalling the battery, the Taptic Engine does serve as a useful way to orient the battery, but it should also be noted that if you push right up against that as you install the battery (as I did) and don’t pay any attention to power connector (shown in step 14), there is a risk that the connector from the battery will not line exactly with the connector port on the board. Mine was only off a mm so I had to get a little creative to try to get it to stretch to reach and connect to the port on the board. Just keep that in mind as you place the battery (with adhesive) down.

    Jesse Bolane - Contestar

    Connect the battery first then put it in place. Other way it is hard to adjust power connector.

    Alexander - Contestar

    I would also HIGHLY suggest re-installing the speaker as well before installing the battery - it was a very tight squeeze as the bottom-right of the battery was snug against the speaker when I tried to get that back in.

    cgtyoder - Contestar

Conclusión

Compara tu parte nueva de reemplazo con la parte original. Podrías necesitar transferir los componentes restantes o remover adhesivo de la parte posterior de la parte nueva antes de instalar.

Para volver a ensamblar tu dispositivo, sigue los pasos arriba en orden inverso.

In the store it says the iSlack is only for iPhone 5 and 6. In this review the iSlack is used (without tray). Does that mean it can be used on the iPhone X as well?

Ronald van der Meer - Contestar

@rvdm The little bracket in the middle of the iSclack is sized for iPhone 5, but that bracket is optional and very easy to detach. At that point you have a really great general-purpose suction tool that works for all kinds of devices (even bigger ones like tablets). I’ll see about updating the description on the store page to reflect that fact. ;)

Note that my replacement battery was completely dead when I installed it, so when I tested it, I thought perhaps something wasn’t hooked up right. After removing the bracket for the connectors and reattaching the battery connector I tried again. Since that failed, I plugged the phone in. I got a “no charge” battery icon. After a few minutes I removed the phone from the charger. The phone stayed on with the “plug in the phone” icon, so I knew everything was put back together correctly.

Jon12 - Contestar

Critical Note! When installing the new battery make sure the connector lines up. The instructions mention having the speaker and taptic engine in place so I focused on squaring up with those. This was a mistake! Now my connector is 2mm too low and won’t line up. Not sure how I will fix this yet but hopefully I won't need to remove everything again.

It would be nice if this addressed the waterproof adhesive, mentioned in Step 6. Doesn’t pulling the phone apart make it no longer watertight?

Winston - Contestar

Instructions for replacing the adhesive seals are linked in the guide (Step 19). I wouldn’t count on your phone being waterproof after a repair, but a phone from 2017-2018 likely won’t be particularly water-resistant anymore, anyway. Those seals tend to degrade over time.

If you’re buying the battery from iFixit I strongly suggest getting the full kit and not the battery-only option so that you get the glue and the gasket. Great guide, thank you!

Grant - Contestar

It is perfectly possible to do the replacement without removing anything other than the bracket and the battery connector.

This reduces the number of steps to about 10 and takes about 15 minutes.

Neil Roberts - Contestar

Awesome guide! I finished it, and now I have a fully working X

Just one thing: the video and the instructions differ on step 20, making the rest unnecessary according to the video guide. On the other hand, it may facilitate taking the glue off, especially for newbies.

I don’t want to sound like “that guy,” but the cost of a battery replacement is only $69 at an Apple Store. This DIY solution, which can go t!ts up anywhere along the 43 steps, requires the purchase of parts that cost almost as much as just letting Apple do it. I love fixing/replacing/upgrading my hardware as much as the next guy, but this seems like a scenario where the majority of people would be better off visiting an Apple Store.

koelpien - Contestar

Except that authorized stores won’t replace a swollen battery, and neither will Apple. Otherwise yes, if the few hours extra and a few 10s of dollars is the additional price for a turnkey solution, most folks are better off having the work done for them.

Mike Hocker -

Was suffering from a hugely swollen battery so it made removing the adhesive pretty difficult (and I was being super careful since the battery had swollen so much). The “stretch and pull” with the adhesive was a no-go and I was hesitant to heat the phone. I ended up slowly pulling up on the battery at the top and gently working the adhesive away. It took some time, but worked out.

Great guide, as usual!

Commentary on swelled batteries: don’t tell Apple, they will mark your iPhone SerialNumber in their database as not repairable and you will never be able to get a battery replacement in the future (per Apple phone support, as we tried to get their swollen battery replaced by appointment). We are not happy campers, now I need to use up valuable time replacing the battery. At least replacing the battery is an option with the help of iFixit. (oh, and they won’t put in a new battery if I remove the old one either— although once the old one is removed the hardest part of the work is done)

Hello,

I have an iPhone X Model number MQAF2LZ/A bought in Perú and once I started removing the display I noticed it doesn’t open like in the pictures or video here. There is a connector behind the ear piece that connects to the main board and I can’t open it. I see if I force it I will break this connector. Have somebody worked with this model? and recommend where to buy a replacement display? The one I bought is for model number MQAF2LL/A (USA). (the ribbon cables look different)

Today I show you how to replace the battery of the Iphone X. We need one screwdriver, one suction cup, 1 iopener, 1 pair of tweezers, 1 plastic pry tool, and 1 spudger.  Remember to turn off the power. The replacement can cause the loss of water resistance. To replace the battery for iphone X, do the following steps. Step 1, use the screwdrive to remove the screws at the bottom. Use Iopener to soften the adhesive. Clip the suction cup onto the screen and use a pry tool to pry out the screen. Lift up the screen 90 degrees on the right. Take off the small screws holding the battery cable and the motherboard. Next, use the tweezers to lift up the metal bracket. Use a spudger to pry away the battery connector and 3 display connectors. Use tweezers to remove the battery stripe. Remove the old battery. Reverse the above steps to install the new battery.

Excellent guide! Took about1,5 - 2 hours too including trying to remove all of that black sticky stuff! :) Should have bought some isopropanol... Aligning and fixing the new sealing was a bit tricky! Really had to think for a while which layer of plastic to remove first...

No problem removing the adhesive under the battery which never has worked on older iphones! pehww.... :)

Worked great. Only putting the display adhesive on was difficult. I am thinking about fixing the broken display now, because it maked so much fun!

Personnellement je n’ai pas démonté les haut parleur et le bas de l’iPhone … j’ai directement chauffé à l’arrière et décollé la batterie …. Plus rapide et moins dangereux pour le reste

I don't know if it's common knowledge, but I just flashed on what the first sign of my battery expanding was. I used an Otterbox Defender case on my iPhone X. 3-6 months before the battery made its expansion obvious, the volume buttons started not working well. I thought it was the Otterbox. But now that I've replaced the battery the volume buttons are working fine. Somehow the battery was distorting the physical interface between the phone buttons and the case buttons. By the time I noticed the battery inflating, it had pushed up the display screen away from its frame. Apparently the battery was getting rather dangerous for possible setting itself ablaze.

I replaced my battery just fine but now my screen is wonky. I’m getting yellow and black lines and it’s not working properly. I reattached everything twice but still no luck. Any body have the same issues or a fix? My screen was perfect before changing out my battery.

This battery has to be reprogrammed to work with the health condition battery?
