    • Completely power off your phone before you begin.

    • Heat an iOpener and apply it to the back cover's left edge for two minutes.

    • A hair dryer, heat gun, or hot plate may also be used, but be careful not to overheat the phone—the back cover and internal battery are both susceptible to heat damage.

    • Apply a suction cup to the back of the phone, as close to the bottom left corner as possible.

    • Pull up on the suction cup with a strong, steady force to create a gap between the back cover and the midframe on the left edge.

    • Depending on the age of your phone, this may be difficult. If you're having trouble, apply more heat to the edge and try again.

    • Insert an opening pick into the gap.
