I used your procedure on one Moto E5 Plus but did not discharge the battery to less than 1% and I punctured the bag and toasted my phone. PEOPLE NEED TO FULLY DISCHARGE THE BATTERY!!! I did this procedure on my second phone and was successful! The battery was impossible to get out without deforming the battery package. I pried and pried and pried and finally, pulled the battery from the adhesive.

There are lots of battery discharge apps that allow you to discharge rapidly. It is very difficult to not puncture the battery package. So be sure it is fully discharged before you do this procedure!

Gary Mitchell -

For best safety the phone battery needs to only be under 25%. The phone will say 0% and shut off, but the battery is not fully discharged. Completely discharging lithium ion batteries has the possibility to do serious damage to the chemistry, reducing its lifespan or capacity, or causing it to refuse to charge again.

I've edited the guide to mention this as well, but isopropyl alcohol (ideally high percentage) will soften most phone adhesive, making it significantly easier to remove.

The instructions say apply heat, but the heat gun has two settings. Which setting is best to use, and how far away from the surface, and for how long at a time?

Bruce England -

Use low setting and heat until it's warm. You should be able to touch it comfortably. If the adhesive is still being difficult, alternate between heat and trying to remove
