instructions for devices will drop a bomb on you right at the end of the d instructions that “reassembly is the opposite of disassembly” or “reverse these steps to reassemble.” At that point, you may suddenly realize that you haven’t exactly been keeping track of which screw goes where, or even taking care not to lose the screws. Here we’ll warn you ahead of time. So nd some shotglasses or plastic food storage containers, such as ice cube trays, to save the screws (Figure 12-44), and pay attention to the steps, thinking about them backward as well as forward so that reassembly will be as easy as possible. If you keep a camera handy to take photos of your work at each critical step, it will make it way easier to backtrack. .Figure 12-44  Tools       iPod Opening Tool  Download at Boykma.Com HACK # 12.09 chapter 12 .Figure 12-45     .Figure 12-46    .Figure 12-47    .Figure 12-48  Download at Boykma.Com       .Figure 12-49    .Figure 12-50     .Figure 12-51  Download at Boykma.Com HACK # 12.09 chapter 12  .Figure 12-52    .Figure 12-53   .Figure 12-54  Download at Boykma.Com     12.10:Hack Disassemble and Reassemble Your Original iPhone   The advanced stages of this hack require soldering experience.
