Separate the front and back of the phone, (like a book) to open and gain access to the internal components.
Careful to not damage the fingerprint sensor cable attached to the motherboard from the back casing.
Place the tip of your opening tool under the edge of the connector, and pry the connector straight up from its socket.
Be very careful to pry only under the edge of the connector, and not under the socket itself. If you pry under the socket, you will separate it from the circuit board, which requires specialized microsoldering skills and equipment to repair.
To reconnect, align the connector carefully over its socket and press down with your fingertip—first at one side, then the other—until it clicks into place. Don't press down on the middle of the connector until it's fully aligned and seated. If misaligned the connector can be permanently damaged.
