    • Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the two 3.3 mm‑long screws securing the charge port to the frame.

    • These screws are tight and can be difficult to reach. Angle your screwdriver at as shallow of an angle as you can, but be careful not to press against the battery.

    • The charge port has an adhesive gasket that seals it against the bottom of the frame. It's also tucked behind two prongs, which prevents you from pulling the port away from the frame.

    • Insert the point of a spudger under one side of the charge port.

    • Pry up gently to separate the gasket and lift the port up.

    • Repeat on the other side to fully loosen the port.

    • Remove the charge port.

    • The two screw posts underneath the charge port have grounding clips on them. If the clips fell off, be sure to place them back onto their posts. The clips should face towards the bottom of the iPhone.
