Einleitung

Use this guide to replace a worn-out or dead battery in your Xiaomi Mi 10.

If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions. For your safety, discharge your battery below 25% before disassembling your phone. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair.

You’ll need replacement adhesive to reattach components when reassembling the device.

    • Before you begin, switch off your phone.

    • Apply a heated iOpener to the back of the phone to loosen the adhesive beneath the back cover. Apply the iOpener for at least two minutes.

    • Secure a suction handle to the bottom of the rear glass, as close to the edge as possible.

    • If the phone's rear glass is cracked, the suction handle may not stick. Try lifting it with strong tape, or superglue the suction handle in place and allow it to cure so you can proceed.

    • Lift the rear glass with the suction handle to create a small gap between the glass and the frame.

    • The rear glass of the Xiaomi Mi 10 sits tightly in place. In order to create a gap that is big enough to insert an opening pick, you need to insert an iFlex first.

    • Insert the iFlex into the gap and leave it in place to prevent the adhesive from resealing.

    • Insert an opening pick into the gap you created with the iFlex.

    • Slide the opening pick to the bottom right corner.

    • At this point you can remove the iFlex from the phone.

    • Insert a third opening pick at the bottom left corner.

    • Slide the tip of the opening pick from the bottom left corner along the side of the phone to cut the adhesive.

    • Leave the opening pick in its place at the top left corner to prevent the adhesive from resealing.

    • If the adhesive becomes hard to cut, it has most likely cooled down. Use your iOpener to reheat it.

    • Insert a fourth opening pick under the top left corner of the rear glass.

    • Slide the opening pick along the top edge of the phone to cut the adhesive.

    • Leave the opening pick in the top right corner to prevent the adhesive from resealing.

    • Remove the rear glass.

    • During reassembly, this is a good point to power on your phone and test all functions before sealing it up. Be sure to power your phone back down completely before you continue working.

    • Remove the four 4.9 mm Phillips #00 screws.

    • There is a small piece of protective copper foil underneath the NFC and charging coil assembly. Avoid damaging it during the following procedure.

    • Slide a plastic card or playing card underneath the NFC and charging coil assembly.

    • Use the card to carefully loosen the adhesive underneath the left edge of the assembly.

    • To make this process easier, you can apply a heated iOpener to the left edge of the NFC and charging coil assembly to soften the adhesive.

    • Do not remove the NFC and charging coil assembly all the way yet. It is still glued to the motherboard cover.

    • Slide an opening pick underneath the bottom right edge of the motherboard cover.

    • Use the opening pick to pry up the motherboard cover.

    This is useless. I'm sitting before my Xiaomi 10 5G and this compononent sticks together and I don't know what to do.

    And I'm certainly NOT RISKING to damage anything by just listening to this sloppy instruction.

    Thank You for absolutely nothing.

    Aleksandar Dejanovic -

    So, I've made it and that what sticks together is the Copperband strip You see on the top.

    It is depressed in the center and that's where You have to separate it (relative) carefully.

    You could, albeit on Your own risk, use a siringe + fine needle filled with 99% Isopropanol and inject a small ammount above a pry tool while it is gently pushed against the glued point.

    The pry tool would also serve to support the direction where the Isopropanol flows.

    Aleksandar Dejanovic -

    the copper piece has broken, is there a way to replace it or does it not affect a problem? The smarphone for now work normally

    Best Regards

    • Peel the battery off of the adhesive pad.

    • Remove the battery.

    • Do not reinstall a damaged or deformed battery, as doing so is a potential safety hazard.

    • Before you adhere the replacement battery:

    • Temporarily reconnect the battery connector to the motherboard socket. This ensures that the battery is properly aligned in its recess.

    • Adhere the battery, disconnect it, and continue reassembling your device.

Abschluss

If possible, turn on your device and test your repair before installing new adhesive and resealing.

Secure the new battery with pre-cut adhesive or double-sided adhesive tape. In order to position it correctly, apply the new adhesive into the device at the places where the old adhesive was located, not directly onto the battery. Press the new battery firmly into place.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order. Apply new adhesive where necessary after cleaning the relevant areas with isopropyl alcohol (>90%).

For optimal performance, calibrate your newly installed battery.

Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.
