Ready to tackle that pesky battery issue on your Galaxy S8+? In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to swap out that worn-out battery all by yourself!

Let’s get started and breathe new life into your device! And remember, if you need help, you can always schedule a repair.
Step 1
– Ready to give your device a breather? Start by pressing and holding the power button until you see the ‘Power off’ option pop up on your screen.
– Now, tap on that option like you mean it! Confirm you want to power down your Galaxy S8 Plus and hang tight until the screen fades to black. You’ve got this!
Step 2
Hang tight! This step might take a little while. You might need to warm up that rear glass or the glue a few extra times before it finally decides to let go. Patience is key!
If you’re having trouble finding a spot to slip in your tool, grab a suction cup and give that glass a gentle lift. You’ve got this!
– Alright, the back cover is really stuck to the chassis. Let’s warm things up a bit! Use hot air to evenly heat the device and soften that stubborn glue.
– Once it’s nice and toasty, gently try to lift the rear glass with a flat, blunt tool. It’s best to find a spot that’s already a little loose to get your first pick in. Then, just work your way around the device, step by step. You’ve got this!
Step 3
– Once you’ve popped off that back cover, gently lift it up and disconnect the fingerprint sensor using your trusty spudger.
– Now, you can fully remove the back cover and place it safely aside for the next step!

– Next, the cover is snugly latched onto the case. Grab a flat tool and gently slide it under the latches to free them.
– And now, it’s antenna time! Carefully remove the antenna and keep it safe.
Step 5
– Grab your trusty spudger and gently pop that battery contact away from the motherboard. You’ve got this!
Step 7
Take it easy during this step! Grab a flat, blunt tool like the iSesamo, and handle with care to keep that battery safe and sound.
– Alright, here we go! The battery is really stuck to the enclosure, so let’s take it easy while we work on removing it. Start by gently inserting your tool on the side between the battery and the enclosure. With a steady hand, pry that battery out carefully.
– Now, don’t forget to repeat this gentle process on the other sides of the battery. We want to keep the motherboard and other components safe and sound, so take your time!
– Once you’ve successfully loosened the glue, you can happily lift the battery out of the enclosure. You’re doing great!
