Hi There,

With the back glass on this device, you need to use a lot of heat. I see in your post you tried this. We use around 60-80 degrees C on our heat pad then use thin metal cards to get under the glass. Once we have that in we switch to plastic cards and run them around the edge. The phone needs to be basically so hot you cant hold it.

Hope this helps.

if you struggle to cut the glue at the plastic card stage you can apply some isopropyl alcohol to the card. Only a small amount though. you don't want it dripping into the screen.
