Introdução
Use this guide to replace a scratched or damaged rear case on your iPhone 5c.
This guide requires removing the battery. The adhesive strips securing the battery are not re-usable, so you'll want to have a supply of replacement adhesive strips on hand before you begin. Alternatively, you can secure the battery using a piece of double-sided tape. The battery is pretty tightly secured in the device, but the tape will keep it from rattling.
You can also use this guide for reference when replacing the power button grounding cable.

Apply a few drops of isopropyl alcohol (90% or greater) under the battery and let it flow around the adhesive to help weaken it. High concentration isopropyl alcohol acts as a solvent and dries without leaving any residue, so it will not hurt your iPhone.

Carefully wedge a plastic card under the battery on the side nearest the logic board.
-
Slide the card from the top of the battery to the bottom, pushing toward the edge of the case.
-
-
-
If the battery is still stuck to the case, follow our iOpener heating instructions or use a hair dryer to heat the adhesive securing your battery to the rear case.

crucial information is missing:
when removing the lightning connector module, not only the black "rubber gasket" attached to the microphone needs to be carefully transfered to the new rear case, but also
-the rectangular black plastic microphone filter with the small cylindrical extrusion, which is stuck to the case
-the grid/foam frame protecting the speaker, which is also glued to the case
-the 2 gold connector rings around the screw holes on the upper black plastic part at the bottom of the case.
-the metal piece remotely similar to a "bone" shape, two rings connected by a longer part, stuck to the lower black plastic part at the bottom of the case.
-in general the 4 metal parts screwed to the side of the case, functioning as snap-locks for the front display. (3x with 2 snap lock elements, 1x with only 1, next to the volume rocker
-the black ring round the hole where the wifi/bluetooth antenna goes, underneath the vibration motor.
depending on the case you're getting, all of these need to be transfered.
Also the transfer of the WiFi/Bluetooth antenna is completely missing. In my case the antenna to logic board connector cable broke, so i had to replace it
