Step 1: Power off the device and remove the Oneplus X SIM card tray.
Step 2: Heat up around the back cover edges to soften the adhesive, gently pry up the back cover until a gap shows up, then insert a guitar pick or poker card in between and run it around the edges to release the Oneplus X back cover.
Step 3: Undo the 7 screws, a Phillip screwdriver and a Torx screwdriver are needed as the screws are in different sizes. Then gently pry up to remove the metal cover.
Step 4: Pry up the battery flex connector, then pull up the adhesive tape to release the Oneplus X battery. If the tape puller doesn't work as expected, gently pry it up with the help of a plastic spudger while pulling the tape, be careful not to damage the flex cable ribbons under the battery. Reform the battery in shape if the battery is deformed during the removal.

You left out the most critical and delicate aspect of replacing the screen, removing it from the front of the phone. Done wrong, you stand a good chance of cracking the screen in addition to the already cracked digitizer. Also, there is another cable connection between the screen and the digitizer that is not explained here or on the few other positings on the OnePlus X screen replacement. Think you guys should hold off on posting content until it is complete.
