    • In the following steps you'll be cutting through the adhesive that adheres the rear glass panel to the phone.

    • For reference, the backside of the panel is shown in the first photo. Note the clearance between the edge of the panel and the fragile ribbon cable beside the fingerprint sensor.

    • Be careful as you slice and pry to the left side of the fingerprint sensor, as seen from the outside of the phone in the third photo.

    • Inserting an opening tool more than 3 mm into the phone in this area can damage or tear the fingerprint sensor cable.

    In the UK, the battery will cost you around £12 from Amazon, which would seem makes this exercise worth while. Very nice guide, but it should come with a warning that you should only attempt this knowing the risk that you may completely destroy your phone. You are also very likely to remove any kind of water and dust damage protection in the process. Probably worth letting a professional do it if you do not feel too confident in your abilities…

    • Heating the backside of the G6 helps soften the adhesive securing the rear panel, making it easier to open.

    • Use a hairdryer, a heat gun, or prepare an iOpener and apply it to the lower edge of the G6 for about a minute to soften up the adhesive underneath the rear glass panel.

    • Secure a suction cup to the rear panel, as close to the heated edge as possible.

    • To make this step easier, you can prop up the heated edge of the phone on something that is about 0.5 inches (13 mm) thick, like an eraser. This will angle the phone so that the opening tool is easier to insert.

    • If you don't have a small object for propping, you can (carefully) perform this step at the edge of a desk or table to achieve the same angle of entry.

    • Lift the rear panel's bottom edge with your suction cup, opening a slight gap between the panel and the frame.

    • This may require a significant amount of force. If you have trouble, apply more heat to further soften the adhesive, and try again. The adhesive cools very fast, so you may need to heat it repeatedly.

    • Once you've created a gap, press the flat end of an opening tool into the gap.

    • The rear glass panel is fragile and can break if you use too much force or attempt to pry with metal tools.

  5. LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 5、 3の画像 1 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 5、 3の画像 2 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 5、 3の画像 3
    • Slide the opening tool back and forth across the bottom edge of the phone, cutting through the adhesive securing the rear glass panel.

    • Once the adhesive is cut and the gap is wide enough, insert an opening pick into the gap to keep the adhesive from re-bonding. Remove the opening tool.

    • As you proceed with separating the adhesive, you might need to re-apply heat to each edge before you can slice the adhesive securing it.

    • Additionally, you can use multiple opening picks for this process, leaving one in place on each side after you finish slicing to prevent the adhesive from re-adhering as it cools.

    • Slide the opening pick along the left edge of the phone to slice through the adhesive securing the rear panel.

  7. LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 7、 3の画像 1 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 7、 3の画像 2 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 7、 3の画像 3
    • Re-insert the opening pick into the bottom edge of the phone and slide it up the right edge of the phone, cutting through the adhesive holding it in place.

  8. LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 8、 3の画像 1 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 8、 3の画像 2 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 8、 3の画像 3
    • As seen in Step 1, the fingerprint reader cable runs to the left of the camera, fairly close to the edge of the phone. Be careful as you cut through the adhesive in the upper edges of the phone.

    • Carefully slide an opening pick across the top edge of the phone, separating the last of the adhesive securing the rear glass panel.

  9. LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 9、 3の画像 1 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 9、 3の画像 2 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 9、 3の画像 3
    • Once all the adhesive is cut, use an opening pick to pry up the rear glass panel.

    • Remove the panel.

  10. LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 10、 1の画像 1
    • If reusing the rear glass panel during reassembly:

    • Use tweezers to peel away any remaining adhesive from both the rear panel and the phone's chassis.

    • Clean the adhesion areas with high concentration isopropyl alcohol (at least 90%) and a lint-free cloth. Swipe in one direction only, not back and forth. This will help prep the surface for the new adhesive.

    • Be sure to turn on your phone and test your repair before installing new adhesive and resealing the phone.

    • Peel away the replacement adhesive's liner, align it with the back of the phone, and press it into place.

    • Remove any remaining liners, and replace the rear glass panel.

    • After installing the rear panel, apply strong, steady pressure to your phone for several minutes to help the adhesive form a good bond, such as by placing it under a stack of heavy books.

    • You can also reinstall the rear panel without replacing the adhesive. Remove any large chunks of adhesive that might prevent the panel from sitting down flush. After installation, heat the panel and apply pressure to secure it. The phone won't be waterproof, but the residual adhesive is usually more than strong enough to hold.

    • Remove the four Phillips screws holding down the lower antenna shield.

    • Bonus points: remove the illegal Warranty Void If Removed sticker.

    Suggestion… reword it… “relocate warranty cod if…” sticker…;)

    • Insert the point of a spudger into the small gap between the lower antenna shield and the metal frame of the phone.

    • Gently pry up the antenna shield and remove it from the phone.

    • Insert the flat end of a spudger into the small gap between the upper antenna shield and the phone chassis and pry up, releasing the clips holding the shield in place.

    • Remove the upper antenna shield and wireless charging coil.

    • Use a spudger to pry up the press connector at the end of the battery's ribbon cable, disconnecting the battery.

    The hardest thing for me was getting the battery connector reconnected. I didn't want to break/bend anything. Maybe you can add a close up picture of both ends of the connector.

    • Use tweezers to lift up the blue pull tab at the bottom of the battery.

  17. LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 17、 3の画像 1 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 17、 3の画像 2 LG G6 Battery Replacement: 手順 17、 3の画像 3
    • Firmly grasp the blue tab and pull directly upwards, lifting the battery up and out of the phone.

    • Try your best not to deform the battery during this process. Soft-shell lithium-ion batteries can leak dangerous chemicals, catch fire, or even explode if damaged. Do not use excessive force or pry at the battery with metal tools.

    • If you encounter significant resistance or the battery starts to deform, refer to the next step for some alternate removal methods.

    • The battery is held in place with some fairly strong adhesive. If you have difficulty removing your battery, or if it starts to deform as you pull it out, you can try these other removal tricks:

    • Prepare an iOpener and apply it to the screen opposite where the battery sits. The heat will help soften the adhesive holding the battery down. Do not apply the iOpener or any other form of heat directly to the battery.

    • Apply some high-concentration isopropyl alcohol or adhesive remover along the bottom of the battery and then tilt the phone so the liquid will run along the bottom of the battery and weaken the adhesive. Then wait a few minutes and try removal again.

    • Carefully slide the flat end of a spudger under the battery to slice through the adhesive and lever the battery out of the phone.

    • To install a new battery, clean any residual adhesive from the phone and use some Tesa tape to hold the new battery in place. Do not reuse your battery if it is wrinkled or deformed in any way.

    My copy came without the blue pull tab but since the battery was set so close to the cutouts border is wasn’t able to slide the spudger underneath it and the solvent couldnt reach the adhesive parts. The cut out on the left side of the base plate provided a barely wide enough entrypoint to carefully slide/lever a narrow cut (approx. 10mm) thin plastic card with runded edges(!) under the battery. This allowed the solvent to creep to the center of the base plate which then successfully weakened the adhesive after some minutes as described above.

To reassemble your device, follow the above steps in reverse order.

For optimal performance, calibrate your newly installed battery: Charge it to 100% and keep charging it for at least 2 more hours. Then use your device until it shuts off due to low battery. Finally, charge it uninterrupted back to 100%.

Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.

Pretty good tutorial!

Do I have to recalibrate the battery somehow?

Hi Andreas,

Follow the battery calibration steps listed in the conclusion box to calibrate your new battery.

I would have liked instructions on how to install the new rear cover adhesive from iFixit at the end. The notches in the adhesive didn’t line up with anything.

Alessandro Galiano - 返信

This guide worked really well for me! I got the ifixit adhesive remover, which worked well to clean off the old adhesive on the back cover and beneath the battery. I also got the 4mm roll of Tesa tape, which was about the same thickness as the old adhesive, and made it easy to cut strips of appropriate size to replace all the spots where the old tape was. I have plenty of tape and adhesive remover left over for future repairs.

After putting in the new battery and connecting the small “press connector” at the end of the cable ribbon, I would recommend plugging in your phone to make sure the battery is charging before replacing the back. If I could do this all over again, I would go ahead and replace the fingerprint sensor while I had the phone open, they’re notorious for failing on the G6.

The pressure connection is tricky to Line up with the contacts. Test the battery is charging before putting back the cover. The process is very well documented and I didn't have any issues, thanks for the guide!

I just changed my battery following the German transcript.

Warranty void sticker and sadly the battery strap were missing in my phone.

So i had to poke under battery with my spudger. And by sheer luck the phone survived. The copper circles in the battery’s aluminium trunk are not sticker material as i thought, but holes in the mid frame with copper foil under them, already belonging to the display unit. That’s were i was poking and sliding around, scratching the foil, but as mentioned not with fatal consequences. Phew.

Insert tools to lift the battery in a way to avoid these holes, which is particularly hard at the position of the speaker, which is also about the only spot where you can get under the battery…

Great tutorial. The iOpener did nothing for removing that glass backplate, it needed higher heat. I used a hairdryer on the hot setting and didn’t have to break out the heat gun. Try the flat picks rather than the opening tool to work your way under the edge, as they’re thinner.

The iOpener was more useful in applying constant heat to the screen while trying to remove the old battery.

Tip: when putting the upper antenna shield assembly back in, pay close attention to where the screws go — there’s a hole that looks like a screw hole but isn’t. I hope I didn’t damage any circuitry trying to put a screw in there. The phone still boots up and functions, so fingers crossed.

This is a very good tutorial, everything worked as described. Nobody should have to dispose of a mobile just because the battery is defective. But you need some skill and good tools.

Tuto suivi avec succès, en utilisant un décapeur thermique et en y allant doucement avec plusieurs essais. Je n'ai pas changé l'adhésif à la fin, je l'ai rechauffé puis j'ai recollé la coque et mis sous presse 15mn, on verra dans le temps. Merci !
