Huawei Honor 8 Rear Camera Replacement

소개

Use this guide to remove and replace a broken or defective rear camera in the Huawei Honor 8.

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 rear glass. Apply the iOpener for at least two minutes.

If the phone's rear glass is cracked, the suction cup may not stick. Try lifting it with strong tape, or superglue the suction cup in place and allow it to cure so you can proceed.
Secure a suction handle to the lower edge of the rear glass, as close to the edge as possible.
Lift the rear glass with the suction cup to create a small gap between the glass and the frame.
Insert an opening pick into the gap.
If you have trouble, apply more heat to further soften the adhesive. Follow the iOpener instructions to avoid overheating.
Slide the opening pick to the bottom right corner.

Insert a second opening pick and slide it to the bottom left corner to cut the adhesive.
Leave the opening picks in place to prevent the adhesive from resealing.

The fingerprint cable is located above the power and volume buttons on this side of the phone. Only use the tip of the opening pick in this area to avoid damage.
Insert a third opening pick at the bottom left corner.
Start to slide the tip of the opening pick from the bottom left corner along the side 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 gets hard to cut it 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.

Insert a fifth opening pick at the top right corner of the phone.

The fingerprint cable is still connected to the motherboard. Don't try to remove the rear glass all the way yet.

Remove the Phillips #00 screw (2.8 mm length) that secures the metal bracket on top of the fingerprint flex connector.
