iPhone X LCD assembly replacement.

• insert a pick into the gap

 The waterproof adhesive, which secures the display, is very strong and therefore creating this gap requires a great amount of strength. If necessary, move the display up and down to loosen it and create enough space for the spudger. 

• gently slide the pick to the left along the bottom edge of the iPhone
• gently tilt the pick, to enlarge the gap
   

• if you display is badly damages and cracked, before you begin, cover it with a transparent adhesive tape
• insert the pick into the gap 
• the waterproof adhesive, which secures the display, is very strong and therefore creating this gap requires a great amount of strength

 If necessary, move the display up and down to loosen it and create enough space for the spudger.

• gently slide the pick to the left along the bottom edge of the iPhone
• gently tilt the pick, to enlarge the gap
• slide the pick to the left side of the iPhone, moving up and down all the way to the upper edge.

 Do not move it on to the upper edge yet.

• move to the right side of the device and using the same movement as until now, separate the display from the cover
• do not insert the pick way too deep inside, as this could damage the display cables on this side of the device
• insert it in only into a maximum of the width of the frame
• move the pick on the upper side of the display, to break through the remaining adhesive
• even in this place, do not insert the pick deeper inside than to the edge of the display, as you could damage the upper sensors
• the upper side may be difficult to separate. In case of need, separate the display from the adhesive by a gentle movement, until it loosens
   

• open the iPhone by folding the display to the right, as when you open a book
• do not try to completely separate the display assembly yet, as it is still attached with fragile cables
• remove the four Y000 screws, which secure the bottom connector bracket
  • three 1,2 mm screws
  • one 2,4 mm screw
• make sure that you return the screws to their original place to avoid damaging the device
• remove the bottom connector bracket 
• use the tip of the spudger or fingernail to disconnect the battery connector from the motherboard

 Try not to damage the black silicone which surrounds this and other connectors. This silicone provides extra protection against water. 

• gently flip the connector away from the motherboard and other connectors to avoid their contact and possible cut-off
   

• use the tip of a spudger or fingernail to disconnect the front sensor connector module 

• use the tip of a spudger or fingernail to disconnect the OLED panel connector 

• use the tip of a spudger or fingernail to disconnect the touchscreen connector

• the flex cable is lightly adhered in place
• gently lift the flex cable until the adhesive loosens
• separate the display assembly form the rare cove

• remove the 1,2 mm Y000 screws on the old LCD module, which is located near the infrared camera port
• under the screw which you removed, is a small metal grounding clip. If it did not separate with the screw, remove it using tweezers

 When reinstalling, return the clip to its original place in its original position, in which you need to secure it while screwing. 

• remove the two Y000 screws, which secure the speaker/sensor module
  • 1,6 mm screw
  • 1,3 mm screw
     

• the earpiece is lightly adhered
• insert the spudger underneath the speaker and flip it along horizontal axis – downwards from the edge of the device
   

• from the left side, gently insert the pick under the flex cable and move it underneath towards the right. 
• by wiggling detach the module from the display 

 During this process, it might be helpful to hold the earpiece speaker outside of the device. Always be careful not to rip the flex cables. 

• use tweezers to wiggle out the light sensor from its place in the display

 The sensor remains attached with a very thin flex cable. Be careful not to damage it. 

• remove the sensor and earpiece speaker module
• when reinstalling, be careful to return all the sensors into their original place.
• the sensors must be positioned so that they are not obstructed by any remaining adhesive
• when installing a new display assembly, follow these steps in reversed order
