VAKUPLASTIC Suction Cup
As an alternative to the suction cup, we can recommend the iSclack, which requires less force to lift up the back cover.
The iFlex can be inserted particularly well between the back cover and the screen unit due to its sharp edges.
Attach a suction cup to the lower edge of the back cover and pull it upwards to create a narrow gap.
At the same time, insert a flat tool into the gap between the back cover and the screen unit.

Flat Picks
To avoid damaging the camera module, you should not insert your tool too far. At this point, the hard plastic pick is therefore particularly suitable.
In order to prevent the glue of the back cover from bonding again, we recommend sliding flat plastic picks under the back cover at regular intervals.

Drive your tool completely around the edge of the back cover to loosen it piece by piece.

Put the detached back cover aside.

We recommend that you run hot air over the edge of the back cover, so that the glue bonds properly. You can also weigh down your device with books for a few minutes.
Remove all protective films from the new back cover.
Align it with the screen unit and press it firmly.
