Before you install a replacement back cover, be sure to remove all traces of perimeter adhesive from the phone frame.

If you are re-using the back cover, carefully remove all traces of adhesive from the back cover.

The glass back cover is fragile and prone to cracking. Don't apply uneven pressure to the back cover as you clean.

You may pull up chunks of the cover's color coating as you remove the adhesive. To reduce the chances of this occurring, apply heat or high concentration isopropyl alcohol to the adhesive to weaken it.
