Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Rear Glass Adhesive Replacement

Introduction

Removing the rear glass panel from your Galaxy S6 Edge destroys the adhesive holding it in place. Follow this guide to replace the adhesive tape on your Galaxy S6 Edge rear glass. Most adhesive strips will come packaged as shown, although the film dimensions and color may vary.

Before beginning, we recommend you remove any residual adhesive from the glass panel using a q-tip and solvent such as isopropyl alcohol.

This guide was performed on a Samsung Galaxy S6 (not Edge) but the procedure is exactly identical. Be sure that you buy S6 Edge adhesive, and that it matches the adhesive you pulled off of the rear glass, as it may differ from the adhesive shown in this guide.

If you didn't perfectly align the adhesive with the panel, use an X-Acto knife to trim away the edges.
This will only fix minor misalignments. If you have to trim off more than half the adhesive strip, you should remove the tape and start over.

Étape 7

Use a pair of tweezers to remove any adhesive still on the midframe.
Clean the adhesion areas with high concentration isopropyl alcohol (at least 90%) and a lint-free cloth.
