-
Unplug and power off your phone before you begin.
-
Heat an iOpener and apply it to the back cover's right edge for two minutes.
-
As you wait, take a look at the image of the removed back cover and take note of where the adhesive is located.
-
-
-
Apply a suction cup to the back of the phone, as close to the center of the right edge as possible (where the adhesive is narrowest).
-
Pull on the suction cup with strong, steady force to create a gap between the back cover and the frame.
-
Insert the point of an opening pick into the gap.
-
If you are having trouble creating a gap, your best bet is to apply more heat to the edge and try the previous step again.
-
You can try applying a few drops of high concentration (over 90%) isopropyl alcohol into the seam to help loosen the adhesive.
-
-
-
Rest the heated right edge of the phone on something that is about 0.5 inches (13 mm) thick. This angles the phone for the opening tool.
-
Brace the left edge of the phone with your fingers so that the phone won't slide. Pull on the suction cup with firm pressure.
-
Press the edge of an opening tool into the seam between the back cover and the frame.
-
Slide the opening tool back and forth along the seam a few times.
-
-
-
-
Slide the opening pick along the edge of the phone, slicing through the adhesive.
-
Leave a pick in the seam to prevent the adhesive from re-sealing.
-
-
-
Apply a heated iOpener to the bottom edge of the phone for two minutes.
-
-
-
Insert an opening pick into the right edge near the bottom right corner.
-
Carefully slide the pick around the corner. Continue cutting along the bottom edge and around the bottom left corner.
-
Leave an opening pick in the seam to prevent the adhesive from re-sealing.
-
-
-
Continue heating and slicing around the remaining edges of the phone.
-
-
-
Once you have sliced around the phone, twist an opening pick in one of the edges to help separate the back cover from the frame.
-
Lift the back cover slowly. Use opening picks to slice any remaining adhesive.
-
Remove the back cover.

Good guide, pretty easy to follow along
si le cambio la tapa trasera a mi s10 plus deja de funcionar bajo el agua?
That’s correct. The phone will not be water resistant.
Eso es correcto. El teléfono no será resistente al agua.
then How can I keep it water-resistant?

Easy to follow guide. The iOpener worked better than a hair dryer for even heat, but it took more than I thought it would to get the back cover off.
