You may need to reapply heat repeatedly throughout this process to prevent the adhesive from cooling and hardening.
-
Prepare an iOpener and place it on the bottom edge of the iPad's screen for about two minutes.
-
-
-
Place a suction cup next to the iPad's home button and press down to create a seal.
-
Firmly pull up on the suction cup to create a small gap between the front panel and the rear case.
-
Once you've opened a sufficient gap, insert an opening pick into the gap.
-
-
-
Slice through the adhesive under the screen by sliding the pick along the edge of the display, towards the bottom left corner.
-
Leave the pick in place temporarily to prevent the adhesive from re-sealing.
-
-
-
Apply heat to the left edge of the iPad for about two minutes, or until it's slightly too hot to touch comfortably.
-
If necessary, re-heat your iOpener for a few seconds or until it's a bit too hot to touch. Be careful not to overheat the iOpener, or it may burst.
-
Insert a second opening pick at the bottom left corner of the iPad.
-
Slide the second opening pick along the left side of the display to separate the adhesive underneath.
-
Leave the opening pick inserted near the top left corner of the iPad to prevent the adhesive from re-sealing.
-
-
-
Apply heat to the final, right edge of the iPad for about two minutes, or until it's slightly too hot to touch comfortably.
-
Insert a fourth opening pick at the top right corner of the iPad.
-
Slide the opening pick down to the bottom right corner to cut the adhesive.
-
Slide the opening pick around the bottom right corner—pausing to apply more heat if needed—and cut the remaining adhesive on the bottom edge, but stop before you reach the home button.
We must be very careful when we are prying left and right size bezel to peel off the screen as there very little gap between edges and LCD. Slightly inside push can crack LCD. We need to pay full care and raising edges very very slowly.

Lift the display assembly from its top edge and carefully slide it up (towards the front-facing camera and headphone jack), until the screw that secures the battery power connector is revealed at the bottom.
How do you go about getting to this battery connector as it is covered by a large metal shield above the logic board, if you do not disconnect the battery you risk frying the back light.
-
-
-
Remove the 1.9 mm Phillips screw that secures the battery power connector.
-
-
-
-
To disconnect the battery, slide one prong of a battery blocker or the tip of an opening pick under the battery power connector to ensure the power circuit is interrupted.
-
Leave the battery blocker in place as you work.
I found it very hard to fit something under the battery power connector. I did not have a battery blocker, so I tried a playing card. I was not able to slide it between the springs. The section of the battery power connector, above the cantilever springs, did not seem to want to give at all, like in the picture above. If other people had success, I would love to hear how.
I didn’t have success either, but i kept myself grounded, and avoided battery contact as much as possible.
It took some time but I was able to get it under the back part and slide it forward.

Slowly lift the display from its top edge, being careful not to strain the attached ribbon cables.
-
Remove the two 1.3 mm Phillips screws securing the display connector cover bracket.
-
Remove the display connector cover bracket.
Here it is very precocious steps to do. Flx cables to connectors are small in size and we cannot lift the display vertically. Therefore, we may struggle to unscrew the metal shield. We need to use smaller size of philip screw driver or place vertically the display to create enough gap between philip screw driver and the cover bracket. Similarly, when we are replacing new display we need to be carefully connect four flex cable with connectors with logic board.
agree, with re-assembly very tiny screws and awkward positioning, the back two cables pop off if not careful.
I did this step using just the tip of the PH000 screwdriver, it made it much easier to get my hands into the small space, the replacement screen from ifixit had tighter cables that I was not comfortable stretching out to go to a 90* angle to screw back on. Make sure your tip is magnetized for best results :)!

Remove the display assembly.
Definitely test your iPad’s functions before sealing it up. I needed to reopen the display to reconnect the display connectors in order to have the display functioning properly. As a result, the adhesive strips did not work as well and I needed to tape some of the edges closed with a small section of strong clear packing tape.

Remove the following 10 Phillips #000 screws.

Eight 1.3 mm screws

Two 2.3 mm screws

Gently pull up on the antenna coax cable to separate it from the logic board.
You give no indication of the cover or the purpose of the ports below the antenna
I’m slightly confused by your comment. The scope of this guide is to remove the main logic board from the housing of the iPad. Replacing the antennas is out of the scope of this guide. (please feel free to use this guide as a starting off point to create a new guide.) If you are referring to the lightning flex cable, please view step 24 and 26 to safely remove the charge port which is attached to the main logic board. As far the purpose for a particular part/port, you will need to contact Apple (best of luck to you on that hihi). I didn’t design the device.
