These are very nice instructions. They are clear and detailed for anyone to follow. Thanks for putting together the steps and sharing it.
I have not tried all steps completely yet. But will do so. I will left with probably a question what to do with touch screen. My phone has
never fallen down nor damaged. It worked perfectly well and one fine day, touch screen stopped working. In any case, I will try.
