My suggestion is similar but a couple of other things you could try is 1) Airplane mode if you are 20% or below. You shouldn't have to be without communication and still have your phone on. 2) Clear your recent apps by holding the HOME button and clear then all. 3) Navigate to your data settings and press the menu button (it's left of the home button on the S4) and choose to turn off background running apps. This will make all of the apps that remain active even when you don't use your phone to stop draining your battery. BUT DON'T FORGET TO TURN THEM BACK ON once you have a sufficient amount of battery life 4) Data network uses more battery than WiFi so if you have access to WiFi use it and turn off your data. Don't worry you'll still be able to make and receive your calls, text, etc. 5) You can also try booting up in recovery or safe mode. Shut off your phone and... Actually Google that part and enter your model and make of your phone to get the accurate instructions on how to do it correctly. 6) Last under...
I recently learned that you can use simple things such as a Rubberband. If that doesn't work then you can use a tiny drop of Super Glue onto the screwhead and place the driverhead in the screw and let the bond together and extract. **BE VERY CAREFUL** using super glue near your device. With rubberband, it's fine to use a bit of muscle when attempting to remove but use cautious judgement. If you start your teardown it's best to complete it in one sitting. Find a clean, quiet location with least amount of distraction. Also most importantly, KEEP TRACK OF YOUR SCREWS AND SCREW PLACEMENT Most are different sizes throughout the device but they all start to look the same if they're not seperated . One screw in the wrong place could cause PERMANENT, IRREVERSABLE DAMAGE BEST OF LUCK
The best way to keep track of the size of each screw is first seeing and knowing each hole is for what screw. So for best results before you begin to disassemble your phone I would highly advise to either have a diagram map that you can buy or make one yourself by using the guides on here under TEARDOWN. That guide gives you the specific size of the screw and the location of the screw in the order of disassembly. To make sure that your diagram is in order correctly, mark on a sheet of paper the section of phone, the part and mark the sizes keep them separated to avoid accidentally mixing them up and being at risk of the long screw damage. But don't stress out though doing this project. If you're cool, stay organized and keep a slow but steady pace you can knock out in no time. It's not a race but it is your iPhone so handle with care and DISCONNECT THE BATTERY WHEN TEARING DOWN PHONE to avoid electric shock.
I'm so worried I'm going insert the wrong screw. Does anyone have any suggestions to knowing how to properly tell the size of each screw? I bought a screw set and a magnetic pad but still have the same issue. Not knowing the correct placement of each screw. I'd definitely appreciate any help.
I'm having trouble with one screw not wanting to come out. Any suggestions to keep from stripping the head and getting it?
