Follow up- got your parts + the extra tools I ordered. The most challenging part was the LCD screen. I found heating up the lower-left corner and then using a razor blade helped to get the removal process started. I then used your plastic thin sheets and heat to remove the lcd screen it. One thing to mention, in addition to the black long antenna cable, I also had a white one. It's not in your instructions; however, it was not difficult to deal with. If others encounter this white cable, just take some photos of how it's installed before tearing things apart. Also when testing the fingerprint before finalizing and gluing it back together, you need to state the user has to hold how the microswitch on the back near the camera to do this test. Very pleased with the outcome. I think I will order a new battery before permanently sealing this up. CLEAN your lens and lens on the back plate before sealing. This guide and parts ROCK!

I dont think i would ever get my phone fixed like this. Mine needs a fingerprint sensor and i don't feel like ruining my waterproofing adhesive nor paying an exhorbitant ammount of money just because you literaly have to tear the whole thing apart to change just the fingerprint sensor... Guess ill have to live with annoying on screen buttons.

I have learnt to live without the fingerprint sensor, no problem at all. After new update it is overheating like crazy draining my battery, Huawei wants to charge me because my screen has got a crack and I am refusing to pay anything for their poor policy. I was wondering whether I could just lift the lower part of the screen and somehow cut the connection between sensor and motherboard. Would that ef my device or could be a quick and cheap way around it? Would appreciate some help here!

My home button got a crack in it 3 months ago and I've learned to live without it too. However, much like you, after the recent update the home button now gets VERY hot and drains the battery quickly. I'm a bit worried about leaving it charging whilst I sleep incase it catches on fire. I'd like to disconnect it too, without having to do all the steps in the vid.

@@nrbrtbnsYes, actually you may need to gently poke the sensor before you pull out from the back because there is some adhesive between the sensor and the screen. If you tried poking but the sensor doesn't move, a heat gun or a hair dryer is your best friend.
