    • During reassembly:

    • This is a good point to power on your phone and test all functions before sealing it up. Be sure to power your phone back down completely before you continue working.

    • Retaining water resistance after the repair will depend on how well you reapply the back cover adhesive, but your device will lose its IP (Ingress Protection) rating.

    • Use tweezers or your fingers to remove all adhesive from the back cover and the phone. Use heat or isopropyl alcohol (90% or greater) and a coffee filter or lint-free cloth if you're having trouble removing the adhesive.
