Unscrew the two screws near the charging port with a Pentalobe 0.8 mm screwdriver
Take any hair dryer and heat the surface of the screen for 1-2 minutes.
Set the suction cup at the bottom of the screen and pull the ring up.
Next, take a plastic mediator and begin to disconnect the display module from the iPhone.
The case of the iPhone 10 opening like a book.
Open the display to the right side.
Using a Tri-Wing 0.6mm screwdriver, unscrew 5 screws and remove the metal panel.
Under the metal panel, you will see cables.
The first is disconnecting the battery cable, and then disconnecting the 3 display cables.

Unscrew 7 screws.
Unscrew one screw between the Taptic Engine and the speaker.
Remove the metal panel and unplug the cable.
In iPhone 10 the speaker is glued to the case.
If you want safe the factory adhesive tape, which can reuse during assembly, heat with

Using medical alcohol, wipe the iPhone X case from the old adhesive tape.
If you want to restore the water resistance of your iPhone X, you need adhesive tape like
this.
Of course, you can assemble your iPhone X without this adhesive tape, but this makes
no sense because this adhesive tape costs only a couple of dollars.

Connect 3 display cables to the mainboard and only after connect the battery cable.
Install the metal panel and fasten the screws.
Turn over the display and press it to the case.
Fasten the 2 screws near the charging port.
Install the tray with a sim card.
