    • Prepare an iOpener and apply it to the back cover for at least two minutes to loosen the adhesive underneath.

    • Secure a suction handle to the right edge of the back cover, as close to the edge as possible.

    • If the back cover is damaged, the suction handle may not stick. Try lifting it with strong tape, or superglue the suction handle in place and allow it to cure so you can proceed.

    • Lift the back cover with the suction handle to create a small gap between the back cover and the frame.

    • In case you have trouble creating a gap, apply more heat to further soften the adhesive. Follow the iOpener instructions to avoid overheating.

    • Insert an opening pick into the gap you created.
