How to change the back cover or battery of the Samsung Galaxy S7

How to change the Galaxy S7 back cover or battery of the  Samsung Galaxy S7 G930F mobile.  One of the problems that we find in this type of terminal, and in many other current terminals, is that we do not have direct access to the battery, nor can we remove the cover directly.

Formerly, the terminals could be easily removed, simply pull the lid to access its interior. In this way, it was very easy to change the back cover or replace the battery.

In the Samsung Galaxy S7, this process is "complicated" a bit. Like many other terminals, the cover is attached to the chassis. In this way, it is necessary to remove it to replace it, or to change the battery.

The process itself is relatively simple, you just have to be a little careful, and do not rush to lift the lid without being fully detached.

At the end of the entrance, you can see the video, from our YouTube channel, with the steps that we will go describing below.

The first thing we must do is clear our job, prepare the necessary material and turn off the terminal. That's when we can proceed with the repair.

Steps to change the tapa  back of  Samsung Galaxy S7 G930F

• We will use a hot air gun. We will give air around the lid, in order to soften the adhesive. Everything with care not to overheat, as we could cause damage to some component. It is preferable to carry out this step several times, warming up little by little.

• With the help of the suction cup, we will lift the lid a little at one end. At this point you have to be careful, checking that the adhesive is soft enough. Otherwise, repeat the previous step, giving a little more heat with the hot air gun.

• Once we raise a little the end of the lid we will introduce a bit the prong. Avoiding in this way that the lid returns to its original position.

• We remove the suction cup, and with the help of another pick we take off the complete cover. Always with care, without introducing in excess the prong, avoiding damaging the interior flex. Special care at this point when we pass the pick in the area of ​​the outer buttons.

• We completely remove the lid. At this point, we can change the lid.
