How Our Technicians Complete Your Repair

1. Back Panel Thermal Lifting

We heat the rear glass on our temperature-controlled hot plate to soften water-resistant adhesive without glass cracking.

Using specialized alcohol-based adhesive remover, we gently dissolve battery glue without puncturing the pouch.

3. Genuine Service Pack Installation

We mount the new genuine battery using OEM pre-cut stretch-release adhesive tabs for secure anchoring.

4. Super Fast Charge Calibration

We verify 25W/45W charging negotiation, test thermal thermistor readouts, and reseal with waterproof perimeter gaskets.
