Introdução
Use this guide to replace the large antenna component located in the top left corner of your iPhone 8 Plus, opposite the rear-facing camera.
This guide instructs you to fully detach the display assembly; this is intended to prevent accidental damage to the display cables while you work. If you feel comfortable replacing the antenna without putting undue strain on the display cables, you can skip the steps for detaching the display.
O que você precisa
-
-
Power off your iPhone before beginning disassembly.
-
Remove the two 3.5 mm pentalobe screws from the bottom edge of the iPhone.
-
-
-
Measure 3 mm from the tip and mark the opening pick with a permanent marker.
-
-
-
Lay overlapping strips of clear packing tape over the iPhone's screen until the whole face is covered.
-
If you can't get the suction cup to stick in the next few steps, fold a strong piece of tape (such as duct tape) into a handle and lift the screen with that instead.
-
-
-
Pull the blue handle backwards to unlock the Anti-Clamp's arms.
-
Slide the arms over either the left or right edge of your iPhone.
-
Position the suction cups near the bottom edge of the iPhone just above the home button—one on the front, and one on the back.
-
Squeeze the cups together to apply suction to the desired area.
-
-
-
Heat an iOpener and thread it through the arms of the Anti-Clamp.
-
Fold the iOpener so it lays on the bottom edge of the iPhone.
-
Wait one minute to give the adhesive a chance to release and present an opening gap.
-
Insert an opening pick under the screen when the Anti-Clamp creates a large enough gap.
-
Skip the next three steps.
-
-
-
Use a hairdryer or prepare an iOpener and apply it to the lower edge of the iPhone for about 90 seconds in order to soften up the adhesive underneath.

Remove four Phillips (JIS) screws securing the lower display cable bracket to the logic board, of the following lengths:

Two 1.3 mm screws
-
One 1.4 mm screw

Use the tip of a spudger or a fingernail to disconnect the large lower display connector by prying it straight up from its socket.

Two 1.3 mm screws
