Description: Use this guide to replace a cracked rear camera...
Steps:
- Heat an iOpener and apply it to the bottom edge of the back cover for two minutes.
- You can also use a hair dryer—but be careful, as extreme heat will warp the back cover.
- Apply a suction cup to the center of the back cover's bottom edge, as close to the edge as possible.
- Pull up on the suction handle with strong, steady force to create a gap between the cover and frame.
- This will require significant force. If you're having trouble, apply more heat and try again.
- Insert an opening pick in the gap.
- Slide the opening pick along the bottom edge to slice the adhesive securing the back cover.
- Leave the opening pick inserted in the bottom right corner to prevent the adhesive from resealing.
- Apply a heated iOpener to the right edge of the back cover for two minutes.
