はじめに
This is a prerequisite-only guide! This guide is part of another procedure and is not meant to be used alone.
Use this guide to replace the 5G mmWave antenna in your Google Pixel 6a.
For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your phone. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
You'll need replacement adhesive in order to complete this repair.

Screen seam: This seam separates the screen from the rest of the phone. Do not pry at this seam.
