(2) After that, attempt to get a guitar pick (Or other slim durable material) in-between the adhesive and glass. I find around the sides of the S7/S7 Edge are the easiest to get my pick into. Hopefully, the original 1 minute of heat should be enough to pop it off. If you're still finding it difficult to find an area of access, you should go back and heat up the glass for slightly longer. (3) Congrats, it's off. Have a break, and take some time to clean up the glass (If shattered in the process).
