How to change your Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge battery in 5 Steps
BY ETrade Supply | 四月 10th, 2015 | 49 | 30
Since Samsung has made the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge with a non-removable battery, and with the battery capacity of these two batteries only being 2550 mAh and 2600 mAh, many people are wondering whether it’s possible/how hard it is to replace the S6 and S6 Edge’s battery? Samsung has released official battery change instructions within their manual (Check it here), but this doesn’t really give you an idea of how difficult the task is. Here our detailed guide will walk you step-by-step through how to replace the S6 and S6 Edge battery. Want to change the battery? Check our guide out first!
To replace the Samsung Galaxy S6 battery:
Tools you need:
- Ejector Pin X 1
- Heat Gun/Hair Dryer X 1
- Metal Spudger Tool X 1 (to pry up the battery)
- Phillips Screw Driver X 1 (PH00 1.5)
- Plastic Pry Tool X 1
- Suction Cup X 1
Step 1:
Shut down your S6 first before you do anything else, then use the Ejector Pin to take out the SIM card and SIM card tray.
Step 2:
Use the Heat Gun/Hair Dryer to heat up one end of the S6 for about 1~2 mins (we start from the bottom), then use the Suction cup to pry up the battery door a little bit and insert the Plastic Pry Tool (or playing cards) in. Take your time during this step, the battery door adheres to the frame with some very strong adhesive; if it’s too hard to pry up the battery door, try to use more heat, not strength; use a thin plastic pry tool instead of a razor blade in order to avoid damaging the glass. After the Plastic Pry Tool has been inserted in, heat up the edges and then gently slide it around the edge to open the battery door.
Step 3:
Undo the 13 screws around the middle plate, then heat up the front of the S6 to loosen the adhesive around the middle plate. Pry up the screen assembly a little bit with the help of a Suction Cup and thin Plastic Pry Tool, then slide the tool to separate the screen assembly (a little strength can be applied to the back of the battery, but not too much, handle carefully and gently)
Step 4:
Disconnect the 6 connectors that hold the motherboard as shown in the picture to release it.
Step 5:
Use the Metal Spudger tool and insert it very, very carefully into the gap between the battery and screen assembly to pry it up because the battery adheres to the fragile AMOLED display directly! (PLEASE NOTE: Do not heat up the battery and do not bend the battery too much; patience is needed!)
After these steps, you could replace the old battery with a new one, and reassemble the Samsung Galaxy S6.
