You can change the color of your iPhone by using a customization service, a "skin" (a sticker that covers the entire surface of your iPhone), or by purchasing a new back cover. Some of these methods might void your warranty, so choose how to change iPhone color carefully.
Step
Method 1 of 3: “Skin” iPhone
Step 1. Decide if you want to put a sticker on your iPhone
Stickers can wear off over time, peel off, and leave a sticky residue behind. However, if you want to change the color of your iPhone cheaply, using "skins" is the best option to do so.
Step 2. Find a company that sells "skins" on the internet
There are dozens, if not hundreds, of companies that sell "skins" for your iPhone.
Step 3. Select the "skin" as desired
You can buy "skins" for IDR 75,000-Rp 750,000, depending on the quality and model.
Step 4. Wash iPhone before installing the "skin"
Use a computer-specific spray and/or a microfiber cloth. A clean iPhone surface will make the "skin" stick better.
Step 5. Practice gluing before you remove the back of the "skin"
Sticking the "skin" right from the start will ensure that your "skin" lasts a long time.
Step 6. Use a firm hand when attaching the "skin"
Ask for help if you have any doubts about pasting.
Method 2 of 3: Replacing the iPhone Back
Step 1. Decide if you want to change the color of the iPhone "case" yourself
You can buy color changing kits online, which come with new front and back covers.
This option is a medium-cost option and will void your iPhone's warranty
Step 2. Find color changing kits on the Internet
This equipment sells for around Rp. 750,000-Rp. 1,500,000, and is available in various stores.
Step 3. Choose your favorite color and order the equipment
Step 4. Purchase a small screwdriver if you don't already have one
The screwdriver you'll need will vary depending on your iPhone.
Step 5. Read the manual carefully when you receive the equipment
Step 6. Clean the table that you will use as a place to install the new iPhone color panel
Step 7. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws on the bottom of the iPhone
Make sure you place the bolts in a small container so they don't get lost.
Step 8. Press the bottom of the back cover of the phone
The back cover will lift a few cm.
Step 9. Lift the back cover to remove the cover
Step 10. Replace the back cover, then cover it again with the original bolts
Method 3 of 3: iPhone Customization Service
Step 1. Decide if you want to use a professional to change the color of your iPhone
If you use a professional service, your warranty will be void and you will have to ship the phone for at least 2 weeks.
This option is the most expensive option (outside of buying an iPhone in a new color when Apple offers it). You will spend IDR 2,500,000-Rp 4,000,000, including postage
Step 2. Look for a company that offers this option
Step 3. Choose a company that guarantees to return your iPhone in normal condition
You can also purchase a package that includes a warranty.
Step 4. Purchase a customization plan
Step 5. Backup iPhone and turn off all codes
Customization service providers need full access on your phone.
