@rebecka until you make a guide for the rest of us, you may want to check this video.
Hi Rebecka,
Unfortunately, we don't have the time and resources to tear down everything we'd like to :( We don't currently have plans to tear down the Samsung Galaxy S7 Active.
You're always welcome to tear it down yourself, we'd love that! You can add it to: https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/new
Cheers!

One odd thing about teardown video on youtube - videos don’t show removal of the glued on rear door on S7 active. This should expose the battery for easy removal and that’s important as removing screen intact is difficult for normal DIY’ers. I would imagine S7 Active would have gotten 1/10 on repairability score from ifixit. With “rugged design” motif, Galaxy Active series could have sported screws on the back and should have been the easiest Samsung phones to dismantle (even topping Galaxy Note 2 which got 8/10 from ifixit).
