Duration: 45 minutes
Steps: 21 Steps

Step 1
Alright, before we get started, make sure your phone is completely powered off. This is important for safety and to prevent any accidental damage. You got this!
If you’re using a hairdryer, heat gun, or hot plate to loosen the adhesive, be careful not to get things too toasty. The display and battery don’t love extreme heat, so keep an eye on things! If you’re feeling nervous about the heat, you can always schedule a repair.
– Get your iOpener ready and place it on the left edge of the back panel for about a minute. You’re doing great!

Step 2
If your back glass is seriously cracked, sticking a layer of clear packing tape on it can help the suction cup stick better. Got some super strong tape? That might do the trick instead! And if you’re really in a bind, a little super glue on the suction cup could save the day.
Depending on how long you’ve been rocking that phone, getting the glass off might be a bit tricky. If you’re struggling, give the edge a little more heat and have another go!
– Grab a suction cup and stick it to the warm edge of the back panel, getting as close to the edge as you can.
– Give that suction cup a solid pull with some steady force to open up a little gap between the back panel and the frame.
– Now, slide the tip of an opening pick into that gap you’ve created.
Step 3
Hey there, champ! Don’t go crazy with that opening pick, okay? Just slide it in about halfway – you don’t want to accidentally bump into any of the important bits inside your phone. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair.
– Gently glide that trusty opening pick along the left edge, heading towards the bottom left corner to neatly slice through the adhesive like a pro.
– Once you reach the bottom left corner, just leave the pick right there to keep that adhesive from making a comeback.
Step 4
– Now, let’s get that adhesive loosened up! Insert a second opening pick and slide it across the left side towards the top left corner. You’re basically cutting through that sticky stuff.
– Keep that pick in the top left corner. This will help keep the adhesive from sealing back up. It’s like a little adhesive bodyguard.
Step 5
– Get your trusty iOpener warmed up and ready to go. Press it against the top edge of your phone for a full minute. That’s it! We’re warming things up for an awesome repair. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair

– Now, let’s make sure that adhesive is totally toast! Slide an opening pick back and forth along the entire edge of the phone, gently releasing any stubborn spots. If you find some extra-tough adhesive, just give it a little heat with your trusty hairdryer and it’ll loosen right up. You’re almost there!
