The best way I found to not stripping out the T6 screws is using a T7 screwdriver the T7 screw driver will also work when already stripped out the T6 screws also I couldn't find a T4 screw Driver so I used a T6 screwdriver that had gotten screwed up from stripping the T6 screws to get the T4 out of my i730's and it works everytime you'll have to apply more pressure than normal but it should work I just thought this information would be nice for other people to have

yeah I know that I did that the first time thats where I got the screwed up T6 I got a electronics tool kit from radio shack and it works awsome and a plus it they arent magnetic so you dont have to worry about screwing up for microchips

I work at Sears and got the Craftsman set, they work fine and I have never stripped a screw. The Craftsman name isnt just a name, they make good stuff.

Worked like a charm. (The best part is at my work we have an account at Home***** ). So everytime i need a new set of torx off to the D**** we go.

The professional line of the craftsman torx'es are great.
For the larger ones like on the i9x's I actually took a regular craftsman t10 and put it on a bench grinder and brought it down in a custom pattern, works wonders on phones.
