Samsung Galaxy Note10 Wireless Charging Coil Replacement

Completely power off your phone before proceeding.

• Prepare an iOpener and apply it to the left edge of the back panel for one minute.

• Be cautious not to overheat the phone when using a heat gun, hot plate, or hair dryer as they can damage the display and internal battery.

Apply a suction cup to the heated edge of the back panel, as close to the edge as possible.

• If the back glass is badly cracked, cover it with clear packing tape for better adhesion.
• Alternatively, use strong tape instead of a suction cup or superglue one in place.

If all else fails, using strong tape or superglue will cause permanent damage to your phone's glass.

Pull up on the suction cup with strong, steady force to create a gap between the back panel and the frame.

Depending on the age of your phone, this may be difficult; apply more heat if needed.

• Insert the point of an opening pick into the created gap.

Slide the opening pick along the left edge towards the bottom left corner to slice the adhesive.

Do not insert the opening pick more than halfway into the phone — you risk damaging internal components.

• Leave the pick inserted in the bottom left corner to prevent the adhesive from re-sealing.

Slide a second opening pick across the left side, towards the top left corner.

Make sure it remains stuck in this position to hold the adhesive open.

Apply a iOpener to the top edge of the phone for 1 minute.

• Insert a third opening pick into the gap at the top edge of the phone.
• Slide the pick towards the top right corner and slice through the adhesive.
• Leave the pick in place to prevent re-sealing.

Apply iOpener to the right edge of the phone for 1 minute.

Insert a fourth opening pick into the right side gap, sliding down towards the bottom right corner to slice adhesive.

The back panel may separate from the phone near the bottom edge.

• Slide an opening pick around the entire perimeter of the phone to release any remaining adhesive.
• If encountering stubborn adhesive, reheating and reattempting may be necessary.

Remove the back panel by lifting it upwards.

Remove the five 4 mm screws with a Phillips screwdriver.

Use tweezers to lift up and flip back the metal shield over the battery connector.

Hold the metal shield up and out of the way.

• Use the pointed end of a spudger to pry up the battery connector.

Careful not to damage the battery connector.

Use the pointed end of a spudger to disconnect the wireless charging coil connector from the motherboard.
