How Our Technicians Complete Your Repair
1. Pentalobe Screws & Display Separation
We remove the bottom two pentalobe P2 screws and gently warm the perimeter adhesive to 60C, swinging the display open from the right side to safeguard the Home button and digitizer ribbons.
2. Power Disconnection & EMI Shielding
We unscrew the logic board cowling with precision tri-point and Phillips drivers, immediately disconnecting the battery terminal before detaching the display connectors.
3. Touch ID Home Button Microscopic Transfer
Because the Touch ID button is cryptographically paired to your logic board, we carefully heat the bottom chin and transfer the original Home button under a microscope without tearing the fragile flex trace.
4. True Tone Programming & Water-Resistant Gasket
We copy True Tone calibration data from your cracked screen onto the new Retina HD panel, install a fresh perimeter dust/water gasket, and test fingerprint enrollment before final sealing.
