Introduction

  1. ZxWMmLN4nYwHr2fN

    • Heat up the back edge of the phone with the iOpener / any HotPack.

    • Start with a long edge as it is easier to open the back cover in the next step.

    • You may also use a hair dryer or heat gun to heat the adhesive.

    • Be careful not to overheat the phone - the screen and internal battery are susceptible to heat damage.

  2. WN4isVEwQFNQrZ1A

    • Insert the opening pick in the middle of the phone where you heated it. Slide it along the edge to cut through the adhesive.

    • This can be a bit tricky, don't use any sharp objects as you can damage the case.

    • If it does not work, try heating the edge again.

    • Don't insert the opening pick too far. There are no flex cables in the way, but the wireless charging coil could be damaged.
