What you need

Step 1 Batterie

Heat the back of the device (e.g. with a warm bottle).
Then use a suction cup to lift the back a bit and insert a pick into the gap. Guide the plectrum once around the smartphone and loosen the glue, then remove the back cover.
Note the cable for the fingerprint sensor.
The back is made of a quite flexible plastic. Thus, you cannot easily destroy the back
There is a sticker with the serial number on the back. This has to be removed so that the suction cup holds well.

Step 2

Loosen the two screws that fix the cable on the right above the battery.
Disconnect the cable and the cables attached to the same connector from the mainboard.
Use a non-conductive object for this.

Step 3

Now release the cable on the left side.
First, carefully bend the metal bracket that holds the cable on the right side a little to the side and then loosen the screw that holds the cable.
Then carefully pull the cable upwards.

Step 4

The battery is very firmly glued to the case.
Be careful when removing it!
I put the phone on a hot water bottle with the display facing down. This is not the best solution, but it works.

Step 5

To reassemble the smartphone, you first need to remove the adhesive residue that is present around the frame.
Then follow the last steps backwards.
Do not bend the metal bracket for the left cable back until you have already screwed the cable.

Conclusion

Follow the instructions in reverse order to reassemble the device.
