iPhone 6s Plus iSight Camera Replacement

Using the instructions provided, substitute the rear-facing component.The integrated camera is referred to as the iSight.Position the camera within.iPhone 6s Plus.

Step 1 | Pentalobe Screws

Step 1 image
  • To prevent potential hazards and damage, ensure the battery's charge level is reduced to less than 25% prior to beginning the disassembly process.A lithium-ion battery must be fully charged.Accidental puncture presents a fire and/or explosion hazard.
  • Ensure the iPhone is completely de-energized by turning it off prior to starting the teardown process.
  • Using a Pentalobe screwdriver, detach the two screws, each measuring 3.4 mm, located on both sides of the Lightning connector.

Step 2 | Anti-Clamp instructions

  • To simplify the opening process, the following two steps utilize the Anti-Clamp tool, a custom-designed aid; if you do not have this tool, proceed to the instructions three steps further down.
  • Refer to the included guide for detailed procedures regarding the Anti-Clamp's operation.
  • To release the Anti-Clamp's arms, move the blue handle in a rearward direction.
  • Position the arms so they extend across the iPhone's left or right side.
  • Affix suction cups to the iPhone's front and rear surfaces, placing them close to the lower edge, directly above the home button.
  • Apply vacuum to the targeted surface by pressing the cups firmly against each other.
  • To improve the Anti-Clamp's adherence if the iPhone's exterior feels excessively smooth, apply adhesive tape to the device's surface.

  • Moving the blue handle in a forward direction will engage the locking mechanism for the arms.
  • Rotate the handle fully, completing a 360-degree turn, observing for the initial signs of cup expansion.
  • Maintain parallel positioning of the suction cups; should misalignment occur, gently release the suction cups' hold and reposition the arms.
  • Once sufficient separation is achieved by the Anti-Clamp tool, slide a prying tool beneath the display.
  • To ensure adequate clearance, adjust the handle position by 90 degrees.
  • To prevent damage, rotate the component no more than 90 degrees at each step, pausing briefly between rotations to allow the Anti-Clamp device to function and the necessary settling time to occur.

Step 4 | Opening Procedure

Step 4 image
  • Lacking an Anti-Clamp tool, proceed with the subsequent three steps to utilize a suction handle.
  • Using a heat source like an iOpener or hair dryer, gently warm the bottom perimeter of the iPhone's casing for approximately 60 seconds.
  • Applying heat will loosen the adhesive that holds the display in place, facilitating separation.

Step 5

Step 5 image
  • Removing the 6s Plus display will release a perimeter adhesive strip; replacement adhesive strips should be prepared beforehand if desired. Functionality remains unaffected whether the adhesive is replaced or not.
  • Using a suction cup, secure its surface to the display assembly's lower left corner.
  • To facilitate suction cup attachment when the display has severe cracking, apply a sheet of clear packing tape across the damaged area; as an alternative, a robust adhesive tape can be substituted for the suction cup. Should these methods prove ineffective, secure the suction cup directly to the fractured screen using superglue.

  • Apply steady, even force to lift the suction cup, generating a small separation between the front panel and the rear case.
  • To avoid display assembly damage, use minimal force when separating it from the rear case; the goal is to establish a narrow separation.

  • Employing a careful grip on the display assembly, raise it to separate the phone, utilizing the front panel's top clips as a pivot point.
  • Carefully separate the display assembly from the device housing, creating a gap of approximately 1 millimeter.Rotate to a 90-degree angle.Position the device at an angle, securing it in place with support to prevent movement during the repair process.
  • To prevent damage, limit display exposure during the repair process.Rotate to a 90-degree angle.Care must be taken as the display, digitizer, and front camera cables remain attached to the phone's upper section and are susceptible to damage if pulled forcefully.
  • To avoid stressing the display's wiring during the repair process, secure it with a rubber band.
  • As a temporary measure, an unopened standard-sized canned drink can provide the necessary support for the display.
