Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Rear Glass Replacement

Use a hair dryer, heat gun, or hot plate with caution to prevent overheating, which can damage the display or internal battery.

• Prepare an iOpener and apply it to the rear glass for at least two minutes.
• Apply heat using a hair dryer, heat gun, or hot plate, but avoid overheating the phone.

Attach a suction handle near the rear glass's edge, as close as possible.

• If the rear glass is cracked, try securing it with strong tape or superglueing the suction handle in place and letting it cure before proceeding.
• Lift the rear glass using the suction handle to create a gap between the back cover and frame.

Be cautious not to overheat, following iOpener instructions.

• If necessary, apply more heat to further soften adhesive.
• Insert an opening pick into the created gap.
• Slide the pick to the bottom right corner and slice the adhesive.

Leave the opening pick in place to prevent resealing of the adhesive.

Insert the second opening pick along the bottom edge.

• Guide it to the bottom left corner and slide it under the adhesive.
• Leave both picks in place to prevent re-adhesion.

Reheat the iOpener for one to two minutes if the adhesive is hard to cut.

• Insert a third opening pick at the bottom left corner of your phone.
• Slide the opening pick along the left edge to slice the adhesive.
• Leave the opening pick in the top left corner to prevent resealing.

• Insert an opening pick under the top left corner of the phone.
• Slide the pick along the top edge to break the adhesive.
• Leave the pick in place at the top right corner to prevent reseal.

Insert a fifth opening pick at the top right corner.

• Slide the opening pick along the right edge to cut the remaining adhesive.

Do not attempt to remove the rear glass completely yet, as it may be stuck to the phone assembly due to adhesive around the camera area.

Insert a plastic card or similar tool at the right edge, near the rear camera.

• Be cautious when separating components.

• Slice the adhesive along the rear camera frame using the plastic card.

Remove the rear glass.

• Clean affected areas with isopropyl alcohol (greater than 90%).
• Apply new adhesive as needed.
• Secure rear glass using pre-cut adhesive or double-sided tape.

Allow phone to sit under heavy pressure, such as a stack of books, for several minutes after installation.
