Before we begin...Before opening your device, ensure that you are working on a static-free surface and that your device's power is off.

WarningsOpen your device at your own risk.Failure to use the proper tool can result in permanent damage to your hardware.If your rear panel is broken or cracked, be careful while handling it.Let's get started...Step 1 Determining screw typeWith the design of the iPhone 4 and 4S having 2 glass panels and a stainless steel band, it may be a mystery how to get inside the device.Looking at the dock connector at the bottom of the phone, you will see a screw on each side of the connection port. The iPhone 4/4S shipped with 2 different screw types: #00 Phillips or a 5-point pentalobe. These screw heads are very small; identify them carefully. In the photo below, the 5-point pentalobe is on the top and the #00 Phillips on the bottom.Once the screw type has been determined, obtain a proper driver and get ready for the next step.

WarningFailure to properly identify the screw type can result in permanent damage to the screws.Step 2 Remove the screwsWith your correct driver in hand, remove the screw on either side of the dock connector.Â

TipsTake note of how tight the screws are when you remove them. Remember this for when you replace them later on. Over-tightening can damage your device.The screws are very small. After removal place them in a bottle cap or shallow dish to keep track of them.Step 3 Slide the panel upwardWith screws removed, hold your device with both hands placing your thumbs near the edges of the rear panel just below the Apple logo.With only slight pressure, push the rear panel toward the top of the device. It should move about 1/8" (3mm).Step 4 Remove panelGently grab the newly exposed top portion of the rear panel and carefully remove from the device.Step 5 Replace with new panelNow grab your replacement panel and simply follow the steps in reverse. Be mindful not to over-tighten the screws!
