5S dropped
and when the upper right corner
hit the ground the rear case was damaged and the glass broke.
The doubt is how to return the rear case to the original format in order to have a perfect deployment of a new glass and or display.
note that existing damage on the rear case seems to be small, but I am concern that such small damage could derail the placement of a new glass
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

Hi
There is actually a specific tool that you can use to reform the case back into its shape. Lemme find the tool and I will update this answer with a link to the tool. Otherwise, you can attempt to reform the casing with pliers carefully.
EDIT: Alright I found the tool its called the iCorner. It's an expensive tool but it will get the job done for sure so if you have the money to burn, then this is the tool for you

Otherwise, take some needle nose pliers and reform the case carefully. It's aluminum so be careful, it can break with too much force.

Hello you will need to form the metal back out with a pair of fine nose pliers or a dremil there is tools you can buy to do this but they are expensive bits of kit.. The metal is easily formed as it's aluminum

Thanks for the prompt reply. Understand .... Do you believe that is not necessary to replace the rear case? Have you ever needed to do something similar?
No that corner looks very very fixable no need for a new case just take your time and you will be grand
