today we're going to be taken apart and repairing the iPhone 6s plus I'm recording this particular video with my note 5 I will also include a free pdf screw chart to help keep your screws organized the 6s and the 6s plus are pretty much the same just a few different screw locations I will link all the tools and the replacement parts in the video description right below this video there are two screws at the bottom these are pentalobe screws remove those and then you can pry up around the edge of the screen using a suction cup and a pry tool make sure you are only plying on the edge of the frame of the phone and the edge of the frame of the screen that way you're not going to put any pressure on any components on the inside there is a little bit of adhesive around the edge of the screen once I have a little bit of an opening I can use my plastic pry tool and this will keep from marring the edge of the metal frame once you have it up high enough go ahead and lift it up don't bend to past 90 degrees just yet there are some gradual ribbon Cable's remove the five screws around this metal plate and then take off the metal plate and that will expose these little ribbon cables these are just like Legos unsnapped them from the motherboard lift them up and put them out of the way and then you can separate the screen from the rest of the device this is the screen right here there are some components that we need to remove like the home button and the earpiece and front camera so let's get started with that there's three screws along the top that hold down this metal plate remove that metal plate and that exposes the front-facing camera as well as the earpiece which we're going to set off to the side on that PDF screw chart the front sensors and the front microphone going to pull that off here is the top component I will link these replacement parts in the video description there's two screws holding down the home button remove that and then unsnap this little Lego connector right there and then you can pop the home button away from the body be super careful with this you want to reuse your home button as much as possible Apple has been handing out warning messages and breaking people's phones who have to switch the home button so be very very careful there are three screws along the side one at the top and then three screws along this other side and that's for this back metal plate that rests against the pressure sensor for the screen and here is the 3d touch component if at all possible you want to buy a replacement screen with the 3d touch already attached this is the 3d touch on top of the LCD which is attached to these glass screen of the phone and this is the whole screen unit that you be purchasing we're going to go ahead and put the metal plate on your replacement screen that you purchased that will include those links down in the video description below get all seven screws attached to the metal plate and then put the same home button that you took off onto the foam there's this little pin that helps you guide it into place and then take your little Lego connector and push that down as well you'll feel it click in but the metal plate down with its two screws and then if you took off these little plastic components from your old screen some new screens come with them already installed so it just depends on where you got your screen from and then you can line up the microphone with this little plastic pin at the top there get the sensors in place and then you can take your earpiece and put that down making sure the little niblet is down tucked inside of that little hole and then each of these little gold springs will line up with the gold circles on that little ribbon cable it looks a little messy and complicated but it sits down pretty well once you get them all lined up here's the metal plate get that down and put those three screws back in then you can take your ribbon cables line them up and then click those down into place just like little Legos all three of them and before I put the metal plate back on I just want to test it and make sure it works if you have any lines running through your screen or if it's gray or discolored you might want to try reconnecting those ribbon cables again there's a chance that one of them is not sitting quite right everything's looking good so I'm going to turn off my phone again and then install that metal plate get the five screws back into place and we're good to go I'm going to line up the top of the screen first or these little plastic grooves that slide into the metal frame of the phone and then I press down evenly on both sides snapping it down into place all the way around the edge make sure you get your bottom two pentalobe screws in and you're set the only questions leave in the comments don't forget to follow me on Twitter and Instagram and subscribe if I helped you out thanks ton for watching hope see you around
