| | [title] Remove the Digitizer |
|---|
| | [* icon_caution] The area highlighted in red is where the digitizer cable feeds through a slot in the frame. If you plan on reusing the digitizer be ***very careful*** when detaching the digitizer from this area or you may damage the cable. |

| | [* black] As you release the adhesive and pull the digitizer away from the frame, use guitar picks or cards to keep the adhesive from reattaching as it cools. |

| | [* black] Work in sections starting from the top (near the Samsung logo). The adhesive is strong and thick all the way around. Apply even heat to pull the top edge away from the frame. The digitizer cable feeds through a slot in the frame. |
|---|
| | [* black] Apply more heat to the sides, using the plastic tools to separate the digitizer from the frame. Be ***very careful*** not to push the tool too far inside so as not to damage the screen or smear adhesive on it. |

| | [* black] Unlike other Samsung phones, there is no cable on the back of the two touch-sensitive buttons on either side of the home button. |
