Cracked glass preparation

Make sure there's a single strip (not overlapping) of tape across the bottom edge, big enough for a suction cup to fit on.

Heat the back cover
Heat an iOpener and lay it on the bottom edge of the back cover for two minutes.

Adhesive information
The cover is secured with adhesive around the perimeter of the frame. Use this picture as a reference while you separate the adhesive.

Remove the back cover

This is a good point to power on your phone and test all functions before sealing it up. Be sure to power your phone back down completely before you continue working.
Check your rear cameras for any smudges and gently wipe them with a clean, lint–free cloth if necessary.
Your replacement back cover adhesive will be applied to either the frame or the back cover. Use cutouts and contours to see where it lines up best. If it matches the back cover, follow this guide. If it matches the frame, use this guide.
