What you need
-
-
-
Before installing new adhesive, all the old adhesive and its residue must be completely removed from the frame.
-
-
-
Use the point of a spudger to remove all the old screen adhesive from the frame. Try to "roll" the adhesive onto itself so it balls up, making it easier to remove.
-
If you're having trouble removing smaller chunks, apply a single drop of high‑concentration (>90%) isopropyl alcohol and scrape them up with your spudger.
-
-
-
Hold the adhesive above the frame to find its orientation. Use the rear camera cutout in the liner to help visualize how it will lay in the frame.
-
-
-
-
With the larger, clear liner folded towards the bottom of the phone, lay the exposed top edge of the adhesive onto the frame.
-
Once the top edge is properly aligned, gently press down on the top corners to secure the adhesive.
-
-
-
Slowly peel up and remove the large colored liner, gripping it from the cutout near the top edge.
-
-
-
Remove all liners from the underside of the back glass, paying special attention to the front camera cutouts and bottom edge.
-
-
-
Apply a suction handle to the back glass and prop it up on the left side of your phone, so the cable is near its connector.
-
-
-
Use your finger to press down and connect the back glass and battery press connectors.
-
-
-
Use a spudger to press down firmly on the adhesive to secure it to the frame.
-
-
-
Flip the back glass onto the frame and press it firmly into place.
-
Hold your phone up and squeeze firmly around the perimeter to strengthen the bond.
