HTC SMT 6175 Display Screen Replacement

First, flip the phone over so that the back is facing you.

Next, using both thumbs, carefully push the back side of the phone's exterior up, removing it from the main section of the phone.

Set this piece aside until you need to reassemble the phone.

Insert thumb and pointer finger into the notch above the battery. Pull the battery away from the rest of the phone and set it aside.

To remove the back casing inside the phone, use a small, pentagonal screwdriver to unscrew the 6 screws that can be found around the edges.

Carefully pull off the black casing.

Next, unscrew the top screw using a small, Philips screwdriver. You will now be able to pull the motherboard back.

Using a spudger, remove the display screen from its cell within the front case. Insert the spudger next to the LCD on the opposite side of where the motherboard is attached.

Place the motherboard down on top of LCD. Using tweezers, remove the yellow piece of tape covering the end of the flat ribbon cable.

Peel off the silver tape covering the flat ribbon cable. The motherboard is now free from the rest of the phone.
