      • As you go, take additional opening picks and carefully move them from corner to corner until all 4 corners are freed.

      • Do not force the cover open. Re-soften the adhesive with an iOpener or hair dryer if the back cover does not come off or begins to warp.

      • In the photo opposite, 3 corners have been released; only one corner remains to be able to completely remove the glass.

      • Be careful not to damage the fingerprint reader connector when opening the back cover. Disconnect it following the instructions in the next step.
