Removing 4g Card

So my screen is broken, and i want to get it fixed, my questions is..they say once you remove the orange 4g card in the back the 4g will no longer work..and when you replace the screen you pretty much have to remove everything in the back like the battery and that 4g card. So will removing the card really mess it up forever..will fixing the screen be pointless? Help.

No it will not mess up your 4G, you can remove it. Its just that if you lose it you technically cant get any service whatsoever but theres a way around that too.
 
The latest generation (which Metro uses) of UICC cards for 4g LTE are removable, which means, they are no longer 'married' to the handset. Just BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL when removing, you don't want to break/crack card or internal circuitry.
