How to Find Tools and Parts


Importance of Using the Heating Pad


Step 1 — Remove the SIM Tray

Begin by ejecting and removing the SIM tray.


Step 2 — Back Cover Removal

To remove the back cover, gently heat around all four edges until the adhesive becomes soft.

We are using a heating pad for this repair.
Place the back cover side on the heating pad, select the Mobile Phone Heating option, and let the cycle complete.

Alternatively, you can heat the edges using a heat gun or hairdryer.


Step 3 — Separate the Back Cover

Once heated:

  • Use a suction cup to create the initial gap.
  • Insert a plastic card or a thin pry tool to cut the adhesive around the back cover.
  • Work slowly around all edges to avoid cracks.

Remove the back cover and keep it aside.


Step 4 — Remove the Main Board Frame & Wireless Coil

Undo nine screws holding the mainboard frame and wireless charging coil.

Use a pry tool to lift the wireless coil frame. Be gentle:

  1. Lift the plastic frame first
  2. Disconnect the wireless coil plug
  3. Disconnect the battery connector

Remove the entire frame with the coil.


Step 5 — Open the Bottom Section (Secondary Board)

Move to the lower part of the phone.

Undo seven screws securing the secondary PCB cover.
Lift the cover using a pry tool and remove it.


Step 6 — Disconnect All Flex Cables

On the secondary board, disconnect the following:

  • Fingerprint sensor flex
  • Main flex cable (bottom end)
  • LCD display plug
  • Two antenna cables

Next, undo the screw holding the charging port board.


Step 7 — Remove the Charging Port Board

Step 9 — Reinstall the Secondary PCB Cover

Reconnect the battery connector first.
Place the mainboard frame with the wireless coil back in position.

Secure with ten screws.


Step 11 — Reseal the Back Cover

Before installing the back cover, check the adhesive.
If it is weak:

  • Apply B7000 glue, or
  • Use a new double-sided back cover adhesive

Finally, attach the back cover and add bonding clips or rubber bands to apply pressure. Leave it for some time to cure.
