OnePlus 8 Rear Glass Replacement

Introduzione

Use this guide to replace a broken rear glass panel on your OnePlus 8.

You'll need replacement adhesive in order to complete this repair.

Note: Retaining water resistance after the repair will depend on how precisely the adhesive is reapplied, but your device will lose its IP (Ingress Protection) rating. However, only the T-Mobile (IN2017) and Verizon (IN2019) models offer IP ratings.
