Steps

Time Required

No estimate

Introduction

Prereq only for logic board.

  1. fxownC3PGcvJQQRl

    • Use a pair of tweezers to peel back the piece of tape covering the hidden screw securing the rear-facing camera bracket to the rear case.

  2. gsRjqmltFGfCRMFF

    • Remove the following screws securing the rear-facing camera bracket to the rear case:

    • One 1.7 mm Phillips #00 screw

    • One 2.3 mm Phillips #00 screw

    In my case, the rear facing camera was connected to the antenna clip with a piece of black tape, the two can come off together if removed very carefully

    • Lift and remove the rear-facing camera bracket off the rear-facing camera.

    On my iPhone 6+, the screw removed in step 41 had to come off too as the part number A21-2247A is attached to this cover… seems to have a tiny coil or other component connecting the (ground) post at the 1.6mm screw in step 41

    Apparently the antenna clip in step 41 has self adhered to my rear facing camera cover… had I not already removed the screw from step 41 it would have broken when I pulled that cover with just two screws off

    WARNING:

    When doing this step 35, you must do step 41 (Simply undo the small screw under “One 2.3 mm Phillips #00 screw “ as well) .

    Step 42 shows a ribbon. This ribbon seems to be stuck on the rear-facing camera bracket (step 35).. so pulling rear-facing camera bracket off  , be careful it is not adhered and pulling off Step 42 ‘s ribbon!

    It is electronic and a ribbon.

  5. hAQuTADJHht2a3q1
