In this part, I will illustrate the whole process and necessary instruments you need. Use this guide to replace a scratched or damaged rear case on your iPhone 5s. If your display glass is cracked, keep further breakage contained and prevent bodily harm during your repair by taping the glass. Lay overlapping strips of clear packing tape over the iPhone's display until the whole face is covered. Remove the two 3.9 mm Pentalobe screws from either side of Lightning connector. Regardless of the tool you use, you need to be sure you pull up the entire display. If the glass begins to separate from the plastic, as shown in the first image, slide a plastic opening tool between the plastic frame and the metal phone body to pry the metal clips out of the case. Place the bottom of your iPhone in between the suction cups, against the plastic depth gauge. The top suction cup should rest just above the home button. Hold onto your iPhone securely to separate the suction cups, pulling the front panel up from the rear case. Press a suction cup onto the screen, just above the home button. While holding the iPhone down with one hand, pull up on the suction cup to slightly separate the home button end of the front panel from the rear case. With a plastic opening tool, gently pry the edges of the rear case down, away from the front panel assembly, while you pull up with the suction cup. Pull the plastic nub to release the vacuum seal on the suction cup. Remove the suction cup from the display assembly. Open the phone just enough to reveal the metal bracket covering the home button cable. Only the phone's original home button assembly will be capable of using the Touch ID functionality. If you rip the cable, installing a new home button will only restore ordinary home button functions, not the Touch ID features. Use the tip of a spudger to push the bracket free and remove it with tweezers. During reassembly, you will need to reinstall the Touch ID cable bracket. The top of the bracket needs to slide between the battery and Touch ID cable connector, and the front must latch down over the connector. Use the flat end of a spudger to snap the front portion of the Touch ID cable bracket down over the cable connector. Use the tip of a spudger to pry the home button cable connector up out of its socket. Once the connector has been released, pull the home button end of the assembly away from the rear case, using the top of the phone as a hinge. Open the display to about a 90º angle, and lean it against something to keep it propped up while you're working on the phone. Add a rubber band to keep the display securely in place while you work. This prevents undue strain on the display cables. Remove the metal battery connector bracket from the iPhone. Use the flat end of a spudger to gently pry the battery connector up from its socket on the logic board. Remove the following screws securing the front panel assembly cable bracket to the logic board. Remove the front panel assembly cable bracket from the logic board.

Finally, disconnect the digitizer cable connector. Remove the front panel assembly from the rear case. Insert a SIM card eject tool or a paperclip into the small hole in the SIM card tray. Press to eject the tray. This may require a significant amount of force. Remove the SIM Card tray assembly from the iPhone.
