Repair went well, hardware working as desired. Used a B stock part to replace the screen since it’s a beater phone repair anyway. Board works fine, went back in smoothly with no heat applied.

Just work backwards like Nick stated. I usually reverse assemble the parts I take off so I know the order in which I need to put them back in.

Working on Verizon SCH-i545, if you’ll follow the instructions, they really do help. The board will bend ever so slightly because your spudger is crafted at an angle by default. The key is to roll it out, and literally keep the spudger as close to the frame as possible. I removed mine with no heat application. I’ll update this once the repair is completed to let you know how the overall process was and what galaxy diags say once the phone is back together. #StrivelinkTech
