OnePlus 8T Rear Glass Replacement

Switch off your phone.

• Heat an iOpener for at least two minutes to loosen the adhesive beneath the rear glass.
• Optional: Repeat this step several times during rear glass removal.
• Alternatively, use a hair dryer, heat gun, or hot plate, but be careful not to overheat the phone.

The AMOLED display and internal battery are susceptible to heat damage.

Apply a suction cup as close as possible to the center of the phone's bottom edge.

• If the back cover is cracked, try lifting with strong tape or superglue the suction handle in place and allow it to cure.
• Pull on the suction cup to create a gap between the rear glass and the frame.

Insert an opening pick into the gap at the bottom left corner.

Leave the opening pick in its place to prevent the adhesive from resealing.

Position the opening pick at the bottom left corner and slide it to the bottom right.

• Insert a second opening under the bottom left corner where the first one started.
• Leave the opening pick in place to prevent resealing of the adhesive.

Check if the adhesive has cooled down, then use your iOpener to reheat it.

• Insert a third opening pick under the bottom right corner.
• Slide the opening pick along the right edge to the top right corner.
• Leave the opening picks in place to prevent adhesive resealing.

• Insert a new opening pick into the top right corner.
• Move it along the top edge to the top left corner, cutting the adhesive as you go.

Do not remove the opening pick or the adhesive will reseal.

Insert a fifth opening pick at the top left corner.

• Slide it down the left edge to the bottom left corner, cutting any remaining adhesive.

Remove the rear glass.

• Apply strong, steady pressure to your phone with the back cover installed for several minutes.
• A stack of heavy books can be used as a pressing aid.
