Step-by-Step Camera Lens Glass Replacement Guide

Step 1: Remove the Back Cover

Heat gently around the edges of the back cover to soften the adhesive.

Use a suction cup to create a gap, then insert a plastic pry tool to cut through the adhesive.

Carefully lift the back cover while holding the fingerprint button area.

---

Step 2: Remove the Logic Board Frame

Unscrew the eight screws securing the top frame.

Gently remove the frame that includes the camera lens housing.

---

Step 3: Remove Broken Camera Lens Glass

Apply gentle heat directly to the broken camera lens glass.

This model has multiple (four) camera lens rings—identify the damaged one.

From the rear side, apply slight pressure to push out the broken glass.

⚠️ Be careful not to damage the camera module underneath.

---

Step 4: Install New Camera Lens Glass

Place the new camera lens ring with adhesive into position.

Ensure it is aligned properly and sits firmly in place.

Repeat the same process if multiple lens rings are damaged.

---

Step 5: Reassemble the Phone

Reinstall the logic board frame and tighten the eight screws.

Before closing:

• Check if the back cover adhesive is still good
• If not, apply B7000 glue or new adhesive

Press the back cover firmly into place.

Use bonding clips or rubber bands to hold it until the adhesive sets.
