Distinctive feature Iphone is the impossibility of self-disassembly of the phone. Even during the presentation of the first "apple" gadget, the manufacturers assured that opening the back cover of a smartphone at home is quite difficult, and sometimes even impossible. In addition, self-disassembly of the device leads to a loss of warranty, so if any problems arise, the service center may refuse to service the phone. However, if you decide to open the iPhone yourself, you should follow certain instructions below.

Features of smartphone maintenance

In fact, opening the smartphone cover on your own is not as difficult as it seems. But the fact that disassembling the device requires some preparation and a set of tools already speaks volumes.

Smartphone disassembly

Before you open the cover of your iPhone, you need to prepare a special place for work. This is due to the fact that inside the smartphone is quite fragile and delicate. There should not be wet or damp places nearby, as dirt, moisture or dust should not get into the iPhone switch.

If you need to remove the battery, it is recommended to do this with a small plastic spatula so as not to damage the device.

After the SIM card has been installed or other activities have been carried out, you can replace the panel and put the cover back on. The whole process, of course, takes place in the reverse order, at the last stage, the screws are tightened. After that, you can continue to use your smartphone.

Each procedure for disassembling a smartphone should be carried out very carefully, without any extra effort, otherwise the sensitive internal elements of the device may be damaged.

As you can see, removing the cover from the smartphone is not as easy as on models from other manufacturers. But everyone can do it. It is worth repeating that when working with the iPhone, you must be as careful as possible and never make great efforts.

LG G2 is a top smartphone launched by the South Korean company LG in the second half of 2013. Thanks to the powerful "stuffing" (at the time the device went on sale), interesting design, use as operating system Android latest version, supplemented by a large number of branded applications, this mobile device has become very popular among users from many countries of the world.

Despite the use of quality components in the construction of the LG G2 (model D802), sometimes this phone may still require repair. In most cases, this happens due to the fault of users who do not carefully use mobile device. This is also indicated by the nature of the damage - a broken LCD display or glass with a touchscreen. Sometimes the device may need to replace the battery. Also, some users want to further personalize their smartphone by choosing to replace the back panel with a cover of a different color or texture. In such cases, it becomes necessary to remove the back cover of the LG G2.

How to open the cover of LG G2

Contrary to the opinion that the back cover of the LG G2 is not removable, apparently based on the fact that the manufacturer provided for the installation of a SIM card without having to open the back of the phone, removing the cover from the G2 is not difficult at all. detailed instructions for removing the back cover of LG G2 is given below.

    For safety reasons, turn off your smartphone.

    It is more convenient to start opening the phone cover from the place where the SIM card is installed, so the next step is to remove the SIM card tray from the body of the mobile device using a special tool for replacing SIM cards.

    Next, you will need a special tool. V service centers mobile equipment repairers usually use plastic or metal spatulas. At home, you can use a plastic card or a mediator. It should be noted that you should use a metal tool very carefully, as deep burrs may remain on the body and cover of the phone.

Starting removing the back cover of the LG G2 from the place where the SIM card is installed, then you should move clockwise (if you hold the smartphone with its back to you) around the entire perimeter of the phone. In this case, you should not make too much effort, since it is very easy to break one of the lid latches. After all the latches around the perimeter are released, the back panel can be easily detached from the body of the mobile device.

The following video shows how to remove the back cover of the LG G2 smartphone, as well as the process of completely disassembling this phone.

Xiaomi phones themselves are a bit different from the standards we are used to. Due to the fact that SIM cards are inserted from the side, it is not so easy to remove the back cover of the phone.

Yes, you can use a special needle tool, but it only helps to get the card slot in some Chiomi phones. Next, it’s better to stock up on a pick, and if it’s not there, in this case any plastic card will help, it must be inserted between the case and the back cover (where the charging connector is), then all the latches must be snapped off around the perimeter:

Another way to open the back cover of a Xiaomi phone is with any suction cup that you have at home (even a DVR will do):

In order not to damage anything and safely open the cover of the Xiaomi smartphone, you need to use a special needle for such purposes, it comes with the kit and looks like this.

Now many smartphones open with such a thing, the Iphone cannot remove the sim without such a device. Just don’t do it like me, don’t take an ordinary sewing needle to open it, then the phone will “jump” a little. I opened a SIM card on an Apple device with a needle, now the SIM card often fails.

How to open the back cover on a Xiaomi smartphone?

A feature of Xiaomi phones is that it will be problematic to remove the back cover yourself, although most smartphones currently have the same feature.

You can remove the cover, but I would not remove it at home, it is better to do this procedure in services, since special equipment and experience in such work will be required. If you want to take a chance, you can open the lid with a special spatula.

If you want to open the SIM card tray, you can use the tool that comes with this smartphone.

Below is a photo of this tool.

Indeed, it is not so easy to open the back cover on a Xiaomi smartphone.

But if you need to open the back cover, then you can use a special needle (which comes with the smartphone), it is designed just for this, so that you can open the cover.

It is necessary to act very carefully, pry a special hole with a needle and open it.

Here is what this device looks like, with which you can open the back cover.

Well, why not "no how!" - after all, it was somehow assembled at the factory (or maybe in the basement)

If you just need to open the back cover of a Xiaomi Redmi (Xiaomi) or Mi Max phone, and not just insert a SIM card, then this is done very carefully. To begin with, we put forward the tray for this very SIM card, otherwise it will interfere with disassembly. Now, using a special spatula, it is necessary, starting from one corner from the screen, to slowly move the cast cover away, from the latches, and so we pass evenly around the entire perimeter, without creases and distortions. After you have passed the spatula into the circle, gently lift the back cover and unhook the cable connecting the back cover and the front panel. This is how he understands.

The phone of the Xiaomi model differs from others in its single body, so it is not possible to open the back cover.

In order to open the tray for changing the SIM card, you need to use a special needle that comes with the phone. You need to press the side of the phone into a special hole and the tray with the SIM card to extract.

In this model, there is no need to remove the battery, as it does not block access to SIM card slots.

I myself use a phone of this model, I used to think how it is not to be able to extract battery(painfully we got used to extracting it), but now I don’t understand why it needs to be removed. If the phone is good, with a capacitive battery, then the battery will not overheat and you do not need to remove it.

Of course, if desired, it can be opened using a sharp nail file, but it is better not to do this.

Of course, you can try to open the back cover (like me), for this a female iron nail file is suitable, thin, faked the latches, but Xiaomi phone you can damage or scratch, but not a fact, I opened it and nothing happened to it, I performed the manipulations I needed, but the lid opened difficultly, and I do not recommend this method.

But at first I just didn’t find a special device, or rather I didn’t have it with me, otherwise I wouldn’t take risks.

Although it is written in many places that the lid cannot be opened.

How to open the phone cover?




Each of us sooner or later faces the need to change the battery in mobile phone or for one reason or another to get to his "insides" in order to carry out any manipulations. In most cases, this will be quite a trivial task, since many phones have removable back panels that you just need to pry correctly and the cover will come off without any problems.

Recently, manufacturers are increasingly starting to produce phones, the back cover of which can be poorly removed or not removed at all, like a seamless cover on a monolithic phone. Without tools, for example, you will not be able to remove the back cover of the iPhone. Consider step by step on the example of this smartphone, how you can dismantle the back panel.

Removing the cover

To do this, we need a small Phillips and flat screwdriver.

  1. Turning off the iPhone is a mandatory step. To avoid damage, make sure that the device is completely turned off, and not just the screen is off.
  2. We take out the SIM card - this will help prevent its damage while removing the back cover. In the article you will learn what to do so that when removing it, do not damage it.
  3. We make sure that you do not have static electricity. To do this, just touch any bare metal.
  4. Remove old stickers from screws. There are two small screws on the bottom of the phone that need to be removed before you can open the phone. They are located on both sides of the connector.
  5. Open the back cover. Here we need a thin screwdriver, which, after the screws are unscrewed, must be carefully inserted between the case and the back panel. Alternatively, you can use a suction cup to separate the back panel.
  6. Disconnect the cable. The cable that goes to the motherboard of the device is attached to the back cover of the iPhone, it must also be disconnected.

Now you know how to open the phone cover and what you need for this. The monoblock phone is disassembled in the same way.
