Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Back Cover Replacement
Replace the back cover of your Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge with a new one, if it's damaged or cracked.

Step 1 | Prepare your phone for disassembly
Allow the phone's battery to drain below 25% to avoid risk of explosion due to accidental damage.
- Turn off the phone by pressing the power button.

Step 2 | Heat the bottom edge
Use an iOpener to heat the back cover by laying it at the bottom edge for 2 minutes.

When separating the left or right edge adhesive, do not insert your pick more than 3 mm to avoid damaging the wireless charging coil and interconnect cable.
Step 6 | Separate the adhesive
- Apply more heat if struggling with adhesive separation.
- Precision Opening Pick, insert it at the bottom edge, and gently slide to loosen the adhesive holding the back cover in place.
Step 7
Slide the pick along the entire edge of the back cover to loosen the remaining adhesive.
- Be cautious near the long edges, avoiding insertion beyond the edge itself.
Step 8 | Remove the back cover
- Remove the back cover.
- If stuck, check the perimeter for remaining adhesive and use a pick to separate.
Power on phone during reassembly, test all functions before sealing. Power down completely before continuing.
