Steps:

  1. First we heat the rear glass of the phone to melt all the adhesive that glues the glass to the rest of the phone. We can do it either with an iOpener or with a heat gun.
  2. Now with a flat object or with an opening pick we cut the remaining adhesive by inserting it between the glass and the rest of the phone and passing it along the entire edge.
  3. Now we can raise the back panel and we're done.
