I do not recommend using heat, it will take much longer without it but rids you of the possibility of melting the lens, if you do use heat do it while the entire glass is in tact and the lens is not exposed in the beginning. Just use the blade to remove all the glass, and scrape the ledge that holds the glass, make sure this ledge is completely smooth before sticking on the new glass, keep rubbing it with your finger to ensure it is perfectly flat and free from any adhesive or glass, any unevenness will cause the new glass to break when pushing it down. Its extremely easy but very tedious and requires patience, making sure not to accidentally poke the lens and ensuring the surface is clean. Once you have all the glass removed, you can use a cutip and windex to clean the lens. By the way, you can keep the phone on this entire process and keep checking your camera. Each glass lens cover is slightly different and has a different black oval around it so make sure you are applying the right one. I used to be in the phone repair business lmk if u have any quesitons.

Title: [USA-TX][H] iPhone 13 Pro Max Graphite 256GB [W]Paypal

Hi everyone, I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max with a damaged main camera. My toddler pulled the phone down from a desk and that portion of the camera landed on something. Took me a while to replace the lens, and I think some of the tiny glass damaged it. I did eventually replace the glass with this , but I missed taking photos of my kids so I replaced it with a 14 Pro Max. There are no issues with the other lenses and the 1x zoom will work sometimes if you cover the sensor with your finger. Also there are 3 scratches on the screen. No other issues with the phone.
Repairs: Replaced main camera lens cover glass
Includes a caudabe sheath case, apple leather case, unused glass screen protector, an extra lens glass, and og box.
