Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro Rear Camera Replacement
Replace the Rear Camera on your Samsung Galaxy XCover Pro (SM-6715U).
- Determine if a software issue is causing problems instead of replacing the camera.
- If the issue persists, proceed with replacement:
- Ensure device is powered off and battery removed before screen removal.

Step 1 | Screen
Apply heat to the screen using a heat gun or a hair dryer on maximum setting.
- Focusing on the edges, heat until the glue melts.
