Hi nice tutorial. A little off topic....do you know how to fix a note 5 that says it is overheating when it is not. The phone does not charge as well shows a triangle with a thermometer and the charging indicator blinks

Simple. You just arm it and clip the red wire with pliers :D Yeah kidding obviously. Try a new battery. It's an accessory.

I'm replacing the back cover today on my note 5. I found another note 5that has a cracked LCD so I bought it for $20. As I was taking my broken one off the the color meterial started to peel and I started to have the same kinda idea. I went online to see if they sold custom back plates with cool designs but I could not find any. So I picked one out and with the help of photo shop made it look a little nicer. A older link picture from my favorite game Zelda.

I'm going to try and get a vinyl sticker made out of it and stick it to the back cover and install it on my old note 5. Any advice on what I should use to make it stick or any issues you might see with a over heating issue down the road. I was planning on selling it but if this works the way I want it to I'll proble end up keeping it or maybe even doing it to my note 8.
