00:00In this video I'm going to show you detailed step-by-step instructions on how to replace

00:04the battery on the Google Pixel 6. As you can see this one's already helped us out by swelling up

00:10and pushing the screen off on this side but what we want to do is first of all remove that screen

00:15so we're going to place it on the hot plate face down for about 5 or 10 minutes and that's going

00:21to heat up the adhesive on the edges and make it nice and soft. I've got mine set to 85 degrees C

00:27you can use a heat gun or hair dryer to achieve the same effect and after about 5 minutes on here

00:33it's going to be really nice and warm to the touch and you should be able to remove the screen. Once

00:37it's hot you're going to apply a suction cup to the bottom of the screen just here and then I'm going

00:43to run a bead of isopropyl alcohol along this bottom edge. That's going to soften the adhesive a little

00:49bit more and just make it a little bit easier to remove it. Obviously this one's already pushing

00:54up like that so it's pretty easy for me to remove. If your screen isn't already pushing up you're going

00:59to lift up with the suction cup like that and you want to lift it enough so that you can get one of

01:03these plastic guitar picks in the gap and begin separating it. What you might find is that the

01:08plastic bezel and the screen separate but you need to take off the plastic bezel as well as the screen

01:14on these ones. Remove the screen by running the guitar pick along this edge and it's sort of cutting

01:24through the adhesive making it easy to lift away. Once we've got all the way around it

01:31then the phone opens up like opening the front cover of a book. Let's take this over to the workbench

01:38to disassemble it further. What you don't want to do is let this screen flop all the way down so I leave

01:43the suction cup attached to it so that it can prop it up behind it and just hold it open for me while

01:48we remove this screw. If you don't have that suction cup just use a heavy weighted object like a mug to

01:54achieve the same effect. Then we're going to look at how swollen this is. That is mad. I've never seen

01:59one that bad. Once we're into the device we can use a T2 Torx bit screwdriver to remove this single

02:06screw. With that removed we have to remove this little metal shield just here. I always use tweezers for

02:12this bit because you need to sort of get under there and it's got a little latch on it like that

02:16that you need to pop off. I always bend it back as well before you put it down. Just make sure that

02:21that's sort of sitting flat just like that otherwise it'll stick up and could damage the screen. Make

02:27sure that the phone's off before you do this because we're going to detach the screen now and the easiest

02:31way to do that is just to put your thumb on the flex cable and pull up on the screen and it'll come

02:37away very very easily. Now because this is such a spicy pillow I'm going to be very careful when

02:43removing this like carbon sheet that's on there. So I'm going to use a plastic tool to do that.

02:51So I'm going to fold that back there. Do the same up on this bit here. Just peeling off

02:56this like heat tape or anti-heat tape. I'm not sure which way it exactly does. If somebody knows let

03:07me know in the comments below. But yeah I'm just going to peel those back so that we've got access

03:15to the battery. Next we need to remove the metal shield that's holding down the motherboard. So it's

03:22all these screws along here. They're all those T2 Torx driver bits. So just go ahead and remove it

03:29from here. I think they're all the same size although I will tell you if there are any that's

03:33different. I'm just going to work through from the top right. Work our way leftwards and then we'll

03:40work down this left hand edge of the phone removing all the screws. Don't forget if you like repair

03:45content just like this make sure that you hit that subscribe button and if you're having a go at this

03:50repair yourself I'd love to know how you get on in the comments below. I will try to find a minute

03:59to reply to some of your comments because I know that I can be a bit poor at replying so I do

04:04apologize. That's as far as you have to go down this side because you can now get the plastic pick

04:10just under here and then this metal shield will lift up revealing our battery cover just here. To

04:17disconnect that use a plastic spudger avoid metal tools around all connectors really. And then these

04:24these Google Pixel batteries have this strange little flap thing that you're meant to sort of

04:30cut through the adhesive width underneath. I can never get it to work very well to be honest. But it's like

04:37similar to how I remove the batteries for the iPads I suppose but what I always end up doing is just

04:47ignoring them and prying them out to be honest. I'll drop some alcohol underneath the battery. The phone's

04:55still warm to be honest so I'm not too worried about it not being soft enough. A great idea to have this

05:01little plastic tool built in but in reality they don't work very well. So let's get that out of the

05:09way and I'm just going to pop the plastic utopic underneath this far edge and just very very carefully

05:17pry underneath it until it pops out.

05:22And it should come out pretty easily with a little bit of alcohol and heat. You might find that it

05:31leaves behind some adhesive. If it does just get a number 17 exacto blade and remove any left behind.

05:42And then I'm also going to just get a little dab of acetone on a clean room wipe and I'm just going to

05:49clean it up as well to get as much of that adhesive off as possible. I hate putting adhesive on top of

05:55adhesive. The job's worth doing. It's worth doing right isn't it. So that's nice and clean now. The

06:01part that I'll be using for the repair is a genuine Google Pixel battery and it comes with the adhesive

06:06already applied as well as that little weird tool that I was talking about before. We'll put it back in

06:12in case somebody else has a go at this and knows how to use it better than me. But reinstallation is a very

06:16very simple case of always connect it up first. The reason that I do that is because no matter how

06:25misaligned you put the battery now you know that it will always work and fit and connect. Whereas if

06:32you put the battery in first and it's not aligned very well you'll struggle to get that cable in.

06:40Whereas that is very easy to put in. This has got some bits of masking tape that we need to remove

06:47here and here. I'll try and put a link in the description below for where I bought the genuine

06:52battery. Honestly if you can get hold of them just buy them for the price of a genuine part versus

07:00an aftermarket part it might be five or ten pounds. And for the money that you've saved installing the

07:08battery yourself then you might as well not cheap out on the part. Let me tell you then right now.

07:14Anyway let's move back on with reassembling the phone and we're going to put the shield back on top.

07:22And I thought I was right when we were taking it apart. They are all the same size screw that go

07:27back in here. There's only the single screw for the screen that is shorter so just go ahead and reinstall

07:33all the screws that we took out. That one was the screw for the screen. There's these two up here.

07:39Try and stick this stuff back down onto the battery the best you can. It's got to be there

07:43for a reason. If somebody knows let me know in the comments. But we've just got four more screws to get

07:49in up this top edge here. And that's all secured down now. Get this bit of tape back on there.

07:59It looks pretty good doesn't it. Next we need to remove all the old adhesive. This can be awful

08:08on these ones. If you've got one of these number four A exacto blades then I would highly recommend

08:13using that. Peel off or scrape off all of the adhesive that's left behind. Take a good minute to

08:21make sure that it's nice and clean. The way that this is held down is with adhesive tape. I do not

08:26recommend using glues to reseal the screen back onto the phone. Now in this instance I wasn't able to

08:35get a replacement official seal. So the way that I'm going to do it is the same way that I do iPads.

08:43And this is a tried and tested method that I've used for a long time to re-secure screens like this

08:50that we can't get seals for. It might be a little bit unorthodox. It might be against your morals to

08:56do it this way. But I personally think this is the best seal that you can get without using glues.

09:03Because glues just don't, I don't know, they just end up everywhere. It's messy. It takes a long time

09:09to cure. Whereas this cures instantly. And it does as good a job as any other phone adhesives that I've

09:18used in the past. So it's a bit of a cut and stick lesson. You're going to cut the tessa tape to fit

09:25around all the four edges. Cutting around any obstacles in the way such as the ear speaker.

09:32And this will give the phone, although albeit not a factory seal, is going to be the best seal that I

09:39can deliver in my shop when I don't have a factory seal available. But yeah, like I say, I'm open to

09:47criticism on this. But I personally think it's a very, very good way of securing these screens into

09:53place. Just remember not cut into the, sorry, not leave the ear speaker all clogged up with adhesive.

10:05Because that's not good. Cut around it and then remove that bit of adhesive.

10:10I think the scalpel will be my friend for this bit. So to cut these leftover bits,

10:17we're going to use a brand new single-sided razor blade. And we're just going to start like just

10:21shaving it to fit. And then it's going to at least give that perfect sort of fit on there.

10:30And then go back and catch the rest. Just be careful. These do have a plastic bezel. So

10:34with a sharp blade, it can be easy to cut into it. But if you run it fine along the edge,

10:40you'll not struggle. Got a bit snagged up there. That's all good. Same along this opposite edge.

10:46Obviously be careful because you've got the flex cable there. So tuck that away before you start

10:50chopping into it, because you don't want to cut that. It's going to cost you a lot of money if you do.

10:54But yeah, just run that through. Go around the corners. And just cut it to fit. Just be careful

11:03when using razor blades around your wrists. Finally, of course, we've got this bottom area.

11:09I'll show you how to tidy the edges up in a second as well. I really don't like B7000 glues. And that's

11:15what other people use for this. So this is why I do it this way. Got a vendetta against B7000.

11:22Right. If you find that it's not perfect on one of the edges, just grab something like a

11:28nail file and just give it a little rub. And it's just going to smooth off that adhesive on the edge.

11:35Any rough bits, it'll just tidy it up a little bit. And that's your craft lesson done for today.

11:42So all that we're going to do now is reattach the screen to the chassis. Make sure that it lines up

11:47before you start putting pressure on. They're awkward as hell because they're like

11:50dipped into this bit of metal shield. But once you've got it sat on right and you think it's in,

11:59just run over it with your plastic pick, sorry, plastic spudger to make sure that it's sat down

12:05right. And then you can go ahead and get that awkward little shield in place now. So that sits

12:14in like that. Once it's on, you can push it down and it should clip into place and then secure it down

12:24with that single T2 screw. Brush out the inside of the phone, make sure that it's nice and clean.

12:30And then very carefully peel back the adhesive strips that you've installed onto the back of

12:36the screen. If you manage to buy a genuine seal, you don't have to worry about this because you'd

12:40installed it onto the chassis. But I find that if you don't have the seal and you do it this way,

12:45it's better on the screen because you can cut it to fit a little bit easier. Just get this final edge.

12:53And then I always fold it over and line it up on that corner before I peel off this last bit,

13:00just because I don't want to pull it and snag the screen cable. I'm always very careful of those screen

13:05cables. But with that done, we can squeeze down the edges, make sure that it clips in and it sits nicely.

13:11And then of course, you're going to boot the phone. And this battery should come with about

13:1750% plus battery health, battery life, sorry. There's no screws to re-secure. That is just about

13:25job done. Make sure that the phone boots all the way and make sure that it boots without a cable

13:30plugged in as well. That will determine whether the battery is working or not. Sometimes you might find

13:34that it starts booting on a cable, but it doesn't boot without. That means it's probably a problem

13:39and you will have to go back a few steps and check what's gone wrong there.

13:43Thank you for watching and see you in the next video.
