Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold Flip Battery Removal

Use tweezers to grip the black pull tab on the stretch release adhesive and wrap it around the ends of your tweezers.

Hold the phone steady using the edges of the frame—don't press down on the battery.

Pull the strip slowly, evenly, and at a low angle without dragging on other components. Give it plenty of time to stretch and un-stick from under the battery.

If the strip breaks off, try to retrieve it using your fingers or tweezers, and continue pulling—but don’t pry under the battery.

Unfold your phone and flip it so the inner screen is facing upward.

Use a hair dryer to heat the section of inner screen behind the flip battery (the side with the SIM card cutout) until it's barely too hot to touch.

Fold your phone and turn it so the flip battery is facing up.

Grip the green pull tab at the top left corner of the flip battery and rotate it around the battery so it rests along the left edge.

While holding the bottom right pull tab in place, slide the other tab down the left edge of the battery and separate its adhesive.

Grip the pull tab section at the bottom right corner of the flip battery and rotate it around the battery so it rests along the right edge.

Reposition the jacket so it sits evenly under the bottom edge of the battery.

Slide the jacket towards the top edge of the battery to separate the remaining adhesive.

Remove the flip battery.

Apply a few drops of isopropyl alcohol (>90%) under the bottom edge of the flip battery.

Lift the bottom edge of the phone to let the isopropyl alcohol flow under the battery.

Wait one minute for the alcohol to soften the adhesive.

Slide an opening pick—long edge first—under the bottom edge of the battery to separate the bottom section of adhesive.

Insert an opening pick—long edge first—between the top edge of the battery and the upper board.

Rotate the pick so it lies flat under the battery and slide it downward to separate the top portion of adhesive.

Apply a suction cup to the center of the flip battery.

While securing the phone with one hand, pull up on the suction cup with strong, steady force to separate the flip battery from the frame.

Remove the flip battery.
