HI, I replace iPhone screens once in a while and I look at different guides and videos. Some say that I should disconnect the battery before I do anything and some don’t mention it. Is it necessary? And if not, wouldn’t it reduce me damaging my phone with static?

I don’t do it myself and have never had an issue just make sure the device is powered off tho

I disconnect the battery religiously, however most folks don’t for the iPhone 5.
