Introduction
This is a prerequisite-only guide! This guide is part of another procedure and is not meant to be used alone.
Use this guide to replace the 5G mmWave antenna in your Google Pixel 6a. This guide uses the blurbs to skip steps.
Note: the 5G mmWave antenna is only present in specific Verizon models. Other models use a Sub6 antenna, which doesn't need to be removed to access certain components.
You'll need replacement adhesive in order to complete this repair.
Compare your new replacement part to the original part—you may need to transfer remaining components or remove adhesive backings from the new part before you install it.
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

My 2 Pixel 6a phones do not have a 5G mmWave antenna. If yours doesn't have it either, feel free to just skip the steps mentioning it.
