If your OnePlus 6T is experiencing battery drainage issues or won’t hold a charge/won’t charge, then it may be time to replace the phone’s battery.
For your safety, discharge your battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
You’ll need replacement adhesive in order to complete this repair.

Insert a Jimmy under one of the heated corners of the phone to lift it slightly.
-
Insert a plastic card underneath the slightly lifted lip on the back cover and gently glide the card under the lifted phone casing.

Remove the back cover from the phone.
It was sufficient for me to re-heat the adhesive from the phone.
Also, I used a pair of tweezers to lift the initial corner, which was a breeze compared to the Jimmy’s as suggested by the guide.

Does the adhesive for the back cover need to be replaced? Should I heat the phone and back glass for re-assembly?
Good questions. I think “reassembly is the reverse of these instructions" is a bit simplified. I think the heat is only for removal, but perhaps it would cause the adhesive to rebond after reassembly? Can an ifixit tech comment?
Just wondering if anyone can clarify the reattachment of the rear panel, as far as whether it is recommended, or necessary, to heat it again, or get a new adhesive gasket. Thanks.
Good question! You should replace the back cover adhesive with either a custom-cut adhesive or double-sided tape such as Tesa tape. You can choose to reheat and reuse the existing adhesive, but there may be a chance that the back cover will fall off. If you’re reusing adhesive, be sure to remove any uneven adhesive chunks.
What width Tesa tape would work for the replacement of the back cover?
Just look for phone repair adhesive tape - I believe it is 2mm
Personnally, I did warm it again and it looks to fit. I did use the heating bed (90°) of my 3D printer to heat it before and after mounting. But without puting the camera on the bed.
The first step should be expanded upon. Using just a jimmy tool dings up the casing. Heat up the bottom with a hairdryer or a heat gun and use a suction cup tool and pull on the backing enough to create a gap big enough to slip a pick into (having a second person slip the pick in makes this easy) and get the process started. Using the iOpener the rest of the way to heat up each edge and pull it away with the suction cup a bit in combination with a picker tool leaves the adhesive intact enough to re-heat and create a decent and even seal when putting the rear plate back on. This battery change out is about as easy as it gets aside from getting started.
Excellent guide, battery replaced in my OnePlus 6T.
What is the thickness of the tesa tape which is required for the battery and back cover?
Does anyone have any issues with DASH charging after replacing the battery? My phone won't charge faster than ~8W (~2000mAh, ~4V). I've swapped cables and charging bricks, so that doesn't seem to be the issue.
Looking at doing this,did you ever figure out that issue?
I think I'm facing some software problem with wifi connection and on regular fluctuations of wifi, phone is repeatedly getting restarted. I have tested to format whole phone but it didn't work. I tried cleaning chache in boot mode multiple time it still appears. Tweeked with wifi network settings aswell, no result the problem still survives.. provide me some solution please.. I love this phone and don't want to leave it at any cost.
