    • Apply a suction cup halfway up the heated side.

    • Be sure the cup is completely flat on the screen to get a tight seal.

    • While holding the iPad down with one hand, pull up on the suction cup with strong, steady force to create a gap.

    • Depending on the age of your device, this may be difficult. If you have trouble, apply more heat and try again.

    • Be careful to only lift the glass enough to insert an opening pick—any more and you risk cracking the glass.

    • While holding the glass up with the suction cup, insert the point of an opening pick into the gap between the glass and body of the iPad.

    • Don't insert the opening pick any deeper than 2 mm into the side of the display. Inserting the pick deeper than 2 mm could damage the backlight assembly, LCD display, or touchscreen.

    • Reheat and reapply the iOpener to the left edge for a few minutes.

    • Be careful not to overheat the iOpener during the repair procedure. Always wait at least ten minutes before reheating the iOpener.

    • Insert a second opening pick alongside the first and slide the pick down along the edge of the iPad, releasing the adhesive as you go.

    • Throughout the rest of the procedure, if you encounter significant resistance while sliding the pick, stop and reheat the section you're working on. Applying too much pressure with the pick can crack the glass.

    • Continue moving the opening pick down the side of the display to release the adhesive.

    • If the opening pick gets stuck in the adhesive, "roll" the pick along the side of the iPad, continuing to release the adhesive.

    • Take the first pick you inserted and slide it up toward the top corner of the iPad.

  8. iPad mini 4 Wi-Fi Battery Replacement: passo 8, imagem 1 %32
    • Reheat the iOpener and place it on the top edge of the iPad, over the front-facing camera.

    • Be careful not to overheat the iOpener during the repair procedure. Wait at least ten minutes before reheating the iOpener.

    • If you have a flexible iOpener, you can bend it to heat both the upper left corner and the upper edge at the same time.

    • Slide the opening pick along the top edge of the iPad, stopping just before you reach the camera.

    • As you reach the front-facing camera, pull the pick out slightly and continue sliding it across the top edge.

    • Avoid sliding the opening pick over the front-facing camera, as you may smear adhesive onto the lens or damage the camera. The following steps will detail how to best avoid disturbing the front-facing camera.

    • Leave the opening pick in the iPad slightly past the front-facing camera.

    • Take a second pick and insert it to the left of the camera, where the first pick just was. Slide it back to the corner to completely cut any remaining adhesive.

    • Leave the second pick in place to prevent the corner adhesive from re-sealing as it cools.

    • Insert the previous pick deeper into the iPad and slide it away from the camera toward the corner.

  13. iPad mini 4 Wi-Fi Battery Replacement: passo 13, imagem 1 %32
    • Leave the three picks in the corners of the iPad to prevent re-adhering of the front panel adhesive.

    • Reheat the iOpener and place it on the remaining long side of the iPad—along the volume and lock buttons.

    • Be careful not to slice too deep near the bottom right corner, or you risk damaging the display cable.

  16. iPad mini 4 Wi-Fi Battery Replacement: passo 16, imagem 1 %32
    • Leave the opening picks in place and reheat the iOpener.

    • Remember not to overheat the iOpener—no more than once every ten minutes.

    • Set the reheated iOpener on the home button end of the iPad and let it rest for a few minutes to soften the adhesive beneath the glass.

    • When disconnecting any press connectors from the logic board, be sure to lift the connector straight up to avoid ripping the socket off the board.

    • Use the flat tip of a spudger to disconnect the battery connector from its socket on the logic board.

    • Bend the battery connector ribbon cable up slightly to prevent it from making contact and powering on the iPad.

    • Use the pointed end of a spudger to disconnect the display data connector from its socket on the logic board.

    • Use the pointed end of a spudger to disconnect the digitizer cable connector from its socket on the logic board.

    • When reconnecting these, press down from one end of the connector to the other. If you press in the middle of the connector, you may bend it, causing damage or a poor connection.

    • Remove the display assembly.

    • To reinstall your display assembly, you will need to replace the display adhesive. Use our display adhesive application guide to reapply your display adhesive and reseal your device.

  28. iPad mini 4 Wi-Fi Battery Replacement, Battery: passo 28, imagem 1 %32
    • Reheat your iOpener.

    • Lay the iPad face down on your work surface and place the iOpener on the rear case, where the lower edge of the battery is.

    • Wait about two minutes before moving on to the next step to ensure the adhesive holding the battery to the rear case is adequately softened.

  29. iPad mini 4 Wi-Fi Battery Replacement: passo 29, imagem 1 %32
    • In the following steps you will be cutting the adhesive under the battery, and prying it off of the rear case.

    • The adhesive is laid out as shown in this image: two strips along the long edges, and two shorter strips perpendicular in the center.

    • To avoid damaging the battery, use plastic tools, heat, and patience. Do not puncture, bend, or overheat the battery.

    • Do not pry near the logic board, you could damage your iPad.

    • If you are performing this procedure on the Wi-Fi version, it is safe to insert pry tools from the upper, lower, and left edges of the battery. For the LTE version, only pry from the lower and left edges to avoid damaging other components.

    • Continue to cut the adhesive under the battery until the battery is freed.

    • Reheat and reapply your iOpener when prying becomes difficult. Be sure to wait for the iOpener to cool between sessions.

  33. iPad mini 4 Wi-Fi Battery Replacement: passo 33, imagem 1 %32

This guide is great for disassembly. I’ve just successfully removed the battery from my device by following these instructions. However, it does not provide any guidance for applying the new adhesive strips before assembling the screen. For that reason, this guide seems incomplete.

Cleaningoff the old adhesive:

Remove the old adhesive from underside of the glass and the edges of the case. This was the most time consuming part. Took 2-3 hours, because the original adhesive was really gummy and i didn’t want to damage any parts with harsh solvents. (I used a series of methods": citrus oil adhesive remover, methylated spirits, sticky tape stick and lift off.)

Making sure the edges of the glass and case are spotless ensures a good result when applying the new adhesive strips. New strips can be gently applied, peeled back and reapplied to make 100% sure they are in the right place. If adhesive residue is still present the new strips could get stuck in the wrong place and be impossible to reposition.

Reassembly:

Replacement double sided adhesive strips are applied to the case first. Figure which strips go top, bottom and sides. Start with the top or bottom corner. Apply the side strips last so you can figure which side is which.

Make sure the front camera and its window are clean. Use a strong magnifying glass and air duster. You won’t be able to get any dirt out unless you have more adhesive strips to use.

When you are ready to assemble, peel the backing off the double sided adhesive.

Support the screen at 90deg to case. Reattach cable connectors. Attach new battery connector then carefully position new battery with exposed adhesive into position in the case.

Attach connector clamp plate with 4 screws.

Carefully position the screen in case starting from the bottom edge. When it fits all the way around, press firmly round the edges to seal.

The guide is rated at a medium difficulty, which is out of step with a few iPhone battery replacement guides that are at a hard difficulty. Compared to the iPhone, the iPad is significantly more difficult to service. Even though there are few steps, it’s far easier to damage the device.

I’d rate it the hardest repair in earth!
