Step-by-step repair guide

1. Power down & warm the back

Shut off your ZenFone 11 completely. Use a heat gun (set to ~90 °C / ~200 °F) or warming pad to gently heat the rear glass. The goal is to soften adhesive without damaging internal components. Work in a well‑ventilated area and handle with care.

2. Open the rear cover

Use a thin plastic spudger to carefully pry around the edges. Take your time and inch your way around. If you hear any creaking or feel resistance, apply more heat before proceeding. Once the cover starts lifting, work your way around until it’s free. Place it aside safely.

3. Disconnect the battery & internal components

Use a magnetic tray for screws. Remove the phone's screws securing the battery bracket. You may also unplug the FFC cable, which connects the battery to the phone's motherboard. If the cable seems worn or damaged, replace it now with a new ZenFone 11 FFC cable from our store.

4. Remove and replace the battery

Gently pry out the old battery—don’t bend it. Insert your new ZenFone 11 battery, aligning it in the same position. Reconnect the FFC cable and re‑install any screws or brackets you removed.

5. Re-seal the IP68 protection

This step is crucial for maintaining waterproof integrity. Use fresh IP68 adhesive strips or sealant recommended for Asus devices. Replace tape around the edges or apply sealant into the grooves. Ensure the seal is continuous and evenly applied. Let it cure briefly before closing.

6. Re-attach rear glass

Gently align the back glass with the chassis and press firmly around the edges. The new adhesive should bond securely. Some users prefer to clamp the phone for a few minutes to ensure a tight fit.

7. Test for waterproof integrity

After reassembly, perform a splash test. Expose the phone to light water mist (avoid full submersion). If any water enters the ports or inside the camera lenses, disassemble and check the seal again. Repeat until you’re confident the IP68 seal is effective.

8. Final power-up and validation

Power on your ZenFone 11 and check battery health and charge functionality. Download a battery‑monitoring app or check system diagnostics. The phone should reflect the new battery at full capacity and recharge smoothly.
