Steps:

1. Ensure the phone's battery is below 25% to minimize the risk of battery issues during repair.
2. Turn off your phone and unplug it from the charger before you begin the repair.

3. Apply low heat with a heat gun or medium heat with a hairdryer around the edges of the back glass for about one minute to soften the adhesive. Keep the heat source moving and avoid overheating.
4. Keep the heat source around an inch from the back glass.
5. After heating the device, use caution when handling the device.
6. Ensure you are working on a stable, non-flammable surface when using the heat gun.

7. Gently insert the tip of an opening pick or thin plastic card into the seam between the back glass and frame.
8. Carefully slide the pick along all edges using a gentle sawing motion to detach the adhesive.
9. Apply more heat if you encounter resistance. Avoid inserting the pick too deeply.

10. Once the back glass is mostly detached, remove it from the phone carefully.

11. Gently scrape away the old adhesive from the phone frame using a plastic spudger or cloth.
12. For stubborn spots, lightly dampen a lint-free cloth with isopropyl alcohol (90%+) and wipe.

13. After replacing the back glass, apply gentle pressure by hand or use a rubber band to hold it in place until the adhesive fully cures.
