  1. iPhone X Screen Replacement, Pentalobe Screws: passo 1, imagem 1 %32
    • Before you begin, discharge your iPhone battery below 25%. A charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured.

    • Power off your iPhone before beginning disassembly.

    • Remove the two 6.9 mm-long pentalobe screws at the bottom edge of the iPhone.

    • If the screws are stripped or damaged, replace the screws.

    • Opening the iPhone's display will compromise its waterproof seals. Have replacement seals ready before you proceed past this step, or take care to avoid liquid exposure if you reassemble your iPhone without replacing the seals.

    • If your iPhone has a cracked screen, keep further breakage contained and prevent bodily harm during your repair by taping over the glass.

    • Lay overlapping strips of packing tape over the iPhone's display until the whole face is covered.

    • This will keep glass shards contained and provide structural integrity when prying and lifting the display.

    • Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes from any glass shaken free during the repair.

    • If the broken glass makes it difficult to get a suction cup to stick in the next few steps, try folding a strong piece of tape (such as duct tape) into a handle and lifting the display with that instead.

  3. iPhone X Screen Replacement, Opening Procedure: passo 3, imagem 1 %32
    • Heating the lower edge of the iPhone will help soften the adhesive securing the display, making it easier to open.

    • Use a hairdryer or heat gun or prepare an iOpener and apply it to the lower edge of the iPhone for about a minute in order to soften up the adhesive underneath.

  4. iPhone X Screen Replacement, Anti-Clamp instructions: passo 4, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement, Anti-Clamp instructions: passo 4, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement, Anti-Clamp instructions: passo 4, imagem 3 %32
    • The next two steps demonstrate the Anti-Clamp, a tool we designed to make the opening procedure easier. If you aren't using the Anti-Clamp, skip down two steps for an alternate method.

    • For complete instructions on how to use the Anti-Clamp, check out this guide.

    • Pull the blue handle towards the hinge to disengage opening mode.

    • Position the suction cups near the bottom edge of the iPhone—one on the front, and one on the back.

    • Push down on the cups to apply suction to the desired area.

    • If you find that the surface of your device is too slippery for the Anti-Clamp to hold onto, you can use packing tape to create a grippier surface.

  5. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 5, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 5, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 5, imagem 3 %32
    • Push the blue handle away from the hinge to engage opening mode.

    • Turn the handle clockwise until you see the cups start to stretch.

    • Make sure the suction cups remain aligned to each other. If they begin to slip out of alignment, loosen the suction cups slightly and realign the arms.

    • 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.

    • If the Anti-Clamp doesn't create a sufficient gap, apply more heat to the area and rotate the handle clockwise half a turn.

    • Don't crank more than a half a turn at a time, and wait one minute between turns. Let the Anti-Clamp and time do the work for you.

    • Skip the next two steps.

    • If using a single suction handle, apply it to the bottom edge of the phone, while avoiding the curved portion of the glass.

    • If your display is badly cracked, covering it with a layer of clear packing tape may allow the suction cup to adhere. Alternatively, very strong tape may be used instead of the suction cup. If all else fails, you can superglue the suction cup to the broken screen.

  7. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 7, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 7, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 7, imagem 3 %32
    • Pull up on the suction cup with firm, constant pressure to create a slight gap between the front panel and rear case.

    • Insert an opening pick into the gap.

    • The watertight adhesive holding the display in place is very strong; creating this initial gap takes a significant amount of force. If you're having a hard time opening a gap, apply more heat, and gently rock the screen up and down to weaken the adhesive until you create enough of a gap to insert your tool.

  8. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 8, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 8, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 8, imagem 3 %32
    • Slide the opening pick around the lower left corner and up the left edge of the iPhone, slicing through the adhesive holding the display in place.

    • Don't insert the opening pick too far into the iPhone, or you may cause damage to internal components.

  9. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 9, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 9, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 9, imagem 3 %32
    • Re-insert your pick at the bottom edge of the iPhone, and slide it up the right side to continue separating the adhesive.

    • Don't insert the pick very far, or you may damage the display cables along this side of the iPhone. Insert it only a few millimeters, or about the width of the display bezel.

  10. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 10, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 10, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 10, imagem 3 %32
    • The top edge of the display is secured with both glue and clips.

    • Slide the opening pick around the top corner of the display, while gently pulling or wiggling the display down in the direction of the Lightning port.

    • The clips will break if you use too much force. Work carefully and be patient.

    • Again, don't insert the pick more than a few millimeters—about the width of the display bezel—or you may damage the front panel sensor array.

    • Slide the pick to the opposite corner and cut any remaining adhesive securing the display.

  11. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 11, imagem 1 %32
    • Pull on the small nub on the suction cup to remove it from the front panel.

  12. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 12, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 12, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 12, imagem 3 %32
    • Open the iPhone by swinging the display up from the left side, like the back cover of a book.

    • Don't try to fully separate the display yet, as several fragile ribbon cables still connect it to the iPhone's logic board.

    • As pictured, make sure the frame comes off with display and doesn't get stuck in the device.

    • Lean the display against something to keep it propped up while you're working on the phone.

    • During reassembly, lay the display in position, align the clips along the top edge, and carefully press the top edge into place before snapping the rest of the display down. If it doesn't click easily into place, check the condition of the clips around the perimeter of the display and make sure they aren't bent.

    • Remove five Y000 screws securing the logic board connector bracket, of the following lengths:

    • Three 1.1 mm screws

    • One 3.1 mm screw

    • One 3.7 mm screw

    • Throughout this repair, keep track of each screw and make sure it goes back exactly where it came from to avoid damaging your iPhone.

  13. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 14, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove the bracket.

    • The bracket may be lightly adhered in place. Lift gently but firmly to separate it.

    • During reassembly, this is a good point to power on your iPhone and test all functions before you seal the display in place. Be sure to power your iPhone back down completely before you continue working.

  14. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 15, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 15, imagem 2 %32
    • Use the point of a spudger or a clean fingernail to pry the battery connector up from its socket on the logic board.

    • Try not to damage the black silicone seal surrounding this and other board connections. These seals provide extra protection against water and dust intrusion.

    • Bend the connector slightly away from the logic board to prevent it from accidentally making contact with the socket and providing power to the phone during your repair.

  15. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 16, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 16, imagem 2 %32
    • Use the point of a spudger or a fingernail to disconnect the front panel sensor assembly connector.

  16. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 17, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 17, imagem 2 %32
    • Use the point of a spudger or a fingernail to disconnect the OLED panel cable connector.

    • To re-attach press connectors like this one, carefully align and press down on one side until it clicks into place, then repeat on the other side. Do not press down on the middle. If the connector is misaligned, the pins can bend, causing permanent damage.

  17. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 18, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 18, imagem 2 %32
    • Use the point of a spudger to pry the digitizer cable connector up from its socket.

    • This connector's recessed location makes it tricky to reconnect. Take your time and align it carefully, then gently press it into place with your fingertip—first one side, then the other. You should feel it click into place.

    • If any part of your screen doesn't respond to touch after your repair, disconnect the battery and then re-seat this connector, making sure it clicks fully into place and that there's no dust or other obstruction in the socket.

  18. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 19, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 19, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 19, imagem 3 %32
    • The front panel sensor assembly flex cable is lightly adhered in place.

    • Carefully lift the cable until the adhesive separates.

  19. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 20, imagem 1 %32
  20. iPhone X Screen Replacement, Earpiece Speaker and Front Sensor Assembly: passo 21, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove the 1.2 mm Y000 screw on the back of the display assembly, near the infrared camera port.

  21. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 22, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 22, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 22, imagem 3 %32
    • Beneath the screw you just removed lies a small metal grounding clip. If it didn't already come out along with the screw, remove it now.

    • During reassembly, orient the clip as shown. Hold the clip in position while you install and tighten the screw.

  22. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 23, imagem 1 %32
    • Remove two more Y000 screws securing the speaker/sensor assembly:

    • One 1.6 mm screw

    • One 1.3 mm screw

  23. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 24, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 24, imagem 2 %32
    • The earpiece speaker is lightly adhered in place.

    • Using a spudger, gently pry under the top edge of the speaker assembly, and flip it over—down and away from the top edge of the display.

    • The speaker remains attached via a very thin flex cable. Be careful not to strain or damage the cable.

  24. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 25, imagem 1 %32
    • Use a hairdryer or heat gun or prepare an iOpener and apply it to the top front of the display for about a minute, in order to soften the adhesive securing the sensors.

  25. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 26, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 26, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 26, imagem 3 %32
    • Carefully slide the flat edge of your spudger underneath the flex cable below the microphone.

    • Twist gently to separate the microphone, while being careful not to strain or damage the flex cable.

    • If needed, use the point of the spudger to finish separating the microphone from its notch in the front panel.

  26. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 27, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 27, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 27, imagem 3 %32
    • Working left to right, slide an opening pick beneath the flex cable and underneath the proximity sensor + flood illuminator module.

    • Gently wiggle and lift to separate the module from its notch in the front panel.

    • It's helpful to lift and hold the speaker out of the way for access. Just be careful not to pull on the thin flex cable while you work.

  27. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 28, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 28, imagem 2 %32
    • Use tweezers to wiggle the ambient light sensor and lift it from its notch in the display.

    • The sensor remains attached to the rest of the sensor assembly via a very thin flex cable. Be careful not to strain or damage the cable.

  28. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 29, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 29, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 29, imagem 3 %32
    • If you successfully removed the entire ambient light sensor, as shown in the first photo, continue to the next step below.

    • If the white diffuser strip detached and remains embedded in the display, as shown in the second photo, you will need to carefully lever it out along the top edge using a thin blade or pry tool. Re-applying heat first may make this task a bit easier.

    • During reassembly, install the diffuser into the display first, making sure it faces the right direction (the front-facing side is shown in the first image, and the rear-facing side is shown in the third).

    • Then, set the ambient light sensor on top of the diffuser. You will need to hold the sensor in position while installing the screws securing the earpiece/sensor assembly. Once the screws are tightened, the sensor will stay in place and work normally.

  29. iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 30, imagem 1 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 30, imagem 2 %32 iPhone X Screen Replacement: passo 30, imagem 3 %32
    • Remove the earpiece speaker and front sensor assembly.

    • During reassembly, check the position of the black plastic module containing these components:

    • Proximity sensor

    • Flood illuminator

    • The module must be positioned so that these components are not obstructed by any adhesive.

does a new display not come with faceid sensor? so you have to remove this and instal it again with the new glass?

Scott Miller - Responder

yeah, also face id will not work if you don’t replace the flex. Just be careful

jump1n -

FaceID is diabled if the hardware detects a new FaceID module. Using the original parts avoids this issue so that the FaceID feature is’t disabled. This could prevent a FaceID module from being replaced with a doctored or unlicensed part which may fail to provide the same level of security than the Apple supplied part.

Sorry, if I replace my iPhone X Lcd, will the Face ID stop working?
