As someone who has used HTC phones exclusively since 2009, and current has one of these for a primary device I love how easy this thing looks to work on. Thanks for the video, I was dreading the repair and now I'm not
You're welcome. Ya older HTC models were extremely cluttered and difficult to take apart but the more recent models aren't as bad. But ya other manufacture phones tend to me easier. I miss HTC a lot, wish they would come out with a really good flagship again one day.
I remember the nightmarish repair on the HTC-10, a crazy bad design with the battery mounted under the main board and a spaghetti of wires. They have improved afterwards, but lost marketplace then sold of most of their IP to Google in 2017. heh
I dont know how you guys crack these so much. I literally bent my phone unto a u shape and the screen isnt cracked. It just doesnt charge anymore. I threw it on concrete as hard as i could and still didnt crack the screen
You're going to have to stop throwing like a girl when you try to break your phone on the ground LOL. Seriously though, I think the reason why is that these phones seem to hit sometimes at exactly the wrong angle. When I heard my land, if it's lit off my motorcycle seat and I heard it smack on concrete. I knew right then before I even looked.
I have trouble hearing when using any phone, so i wanted to know where the phone speaker was located so as best place to put my ear. This tear down was exactly what i needed. Great job!
Love the information that you deliver, No other disassembly videos do it like you. Subbed and liked. Also what camera do you use to record your videos. Thanks
I was hoping to find out where the antenna is located to make sure I'm not obstructing it. I did learn there are probably one or more for 5g and the main for 4g and below but still don't know where that is.
AT 6:17 you instruct on applying new adhesive, and applying your backplate. Where do you purchase, I assume, the new adhesive? Can something else be substituted for the New Adhesive? Thx
You can find the original pre cut adhesive for this model at mobiledefenders.com . Also here is a video on how to install new adhesive for models which might not have available pre cut adhesives on the market. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T4iiPUIM7-Y.html
Thanks! Here is a link for the parts and pre cut original adhesive: www.mobiledefenders.com/motorola-repair-parts/other-motorola/one-ace-5g-xt2113.html
Could you tell me the size in mm, the back lens glass for the (rear) camera of a Moto G 5G? I broke mine but replacements on the web, list it as 22.3mm, not ~21mm when measured (like the Moto G9)? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Not sure the exact size, don't have the device with me anymore but here is a link to the original parts for the phone: www.mobiledefenders.com/motorola-repair-parts/other-motorola/one-ace-5g-xt2113.html
You would need to disassemble both the back and pry the screen off as well (posing a risk of damaging your screen). Since the wire is routed through the mid frame, it requires it to be taken apart from both sides. I don't like this design they implement since its pointless and risks damage to the screen.
the sim reader is soldered to the main board, and even though it is replaceable, its not user replaceable. Requires soldering skills and equipment. You can always contact motorola and send it in to them for it to be repaired/replaced.
My power button is broken right now. I've taken my phone to 2 repair shops and they both said they couldn't do it because they have to remove the screen and it risks damaging the phone. I'm pretty much at my wit's end here. I can't let the power go out ever or I'll never be able to turn my phone back on again.
Do you know anything about the "Myserious" light, in the top-left side on the front? Seems to comes on for second during reboot, after an update. Great video. 👍
You would probably need to either replace the speaker mesh filter from the inside wall of the frame where the speaker opening is or replace the speaker itself. The video shows how to take it apart, so all that would be left is for you to order a replacement speaker and replace it by watching the video.
A bit scary but Success! Replaced my screen. Thanks for the video! The most dangerous thing is getting the battery out. If you puncture the battery it's toast. The Isopropol, heat, and patience is the way to go. Oh ya, pull your SIM card first.
It's possible. Make sure the motherboard/sub board are seated properly and all cables are connected properly. Also check and make sure the motherboard cover and speaker assembly plastic on bottom are properly in place and screwed down since they have antenna lines drawn over them.
You would need this: www.mobiledefenders.com/motorola-repair-parts/other-motorola/one-ace-5g-xt2113/adhesive-back-cover-for-moto-one-ace-5g-xt2113.html
Thanks for this video, I've decided l can't do this job myself so I'll buy the screen and bring it with me on my next trip down to S. America and have them replace it for me. Get another replacement phone too.
Hi, I don't have the phone anymore and I don't usually pry working screens off since there is a high chance of damaging them or breaking them. I explained in the video what you need to do in order to replace the screen. After its taken apart, all you need to do is apply heat to the front side of the screen and pry the old screen off from the frame. Then apply new adhesive, re apply your new screen making sure you run the cable through the opening in the frame, and re assemble the phone. If you go to mobiledefenders.com they should have the original pre cut adhesive you can order to re apply your new screen or they also sell complete screen assembly that is attached to the frame already, so you can just move all your parts from the old phone to the new frame assembly and don't need to pry off any screen and re apply a new one etc.
Hello, I have this one and it's 5g. I dropped it in water before. it turns on it works perfectly fine the only thing is, is it glitches and turns into a pink screen and starts glitching then I goes into a black screen then goes back to normal. everything else works fine. any idea on what I can to do repair it or what I can buy for parts in order to repair it or able to tell me what components are needing repairs?
You would need to take it apart, disconnect the battery cable and dry out any liquid inside or else it can damage the phone more by you using it in this condition. Also you would have to brush off any corrosion on the chips or connectors with a small brush like a tooth brush and then see if the phone will work normally after. If not you might need a new screen or a new motherboard depending on which is causing the issue. You wont know until you test it out.
If you are referring to the coaxial cables/wire cables on the right side of the board that go from the main board to the sub board, they are antenna contact cables. You can try to use one from a different phone sold online (since they don't usually sell these type of cables widely) if you can find one the same length. www.mobiledefenders.com/coaxial-antenna-cable-for-moto-one-5g-xt2075-1-xt2075-2-authorized-oem.html
Ok . . I am buying a bad imei phone and putting my motherboard from my broken screen phone on the good screen phone. with that said at the end you say to apply adhesive. What kind of adhesive and where do you put it?
Here is a link to a website which has the parts for the phone. You will need the pre cut adhesive for the back cover which is an adhesive tape that is made for the phone and you would peel off the old adhesive from the phone/back plate and apply the new pre cut adhesive tape and then re apply your backplate. www.mobiledefenders.com/motorola-repair-parts/other-motorola/one-ace-5g-xt2113.html
@@brettupthagrove1873 You should be able to, the only thing is the metro one might not have the software on it that has the correct bands for verizon. If that is the case, you would need to flash a stock verizon firmware onto the board.
Hi thanks, the reason I don't pry off the screens is because I don't want to damage a working display when all that is left after the disassembly as shown in the video is to heat up the screen and pry it off the frame. Usually I explain the process in the videos but I don't actually pry it off again not to damage the working display.
You make it look so easy. My screen shattered after only 2 months of having the phone. They want $185 to replace it :( . I don't think I can do this myself.
You can get all the original parts you need from this website ( www.mobiledefenders.com/motorola-repair-parts/other-motorola/one-ace-5g-xt2113.html? ) . They sell the lcd screen with frame pre attached for $68 USD plus if you were to get new adhesive for the back plate to re attach it, they sell that pre cut adhesive for the phone for $4 so would run you much cheaper. Or you can also contact motorola and ask how much they would charge for a screen repair. They offer repair services too, some phone screens they charge $99 plus tax but varies from model to model.
0 you said Qualcomm, but I thought it was a Snapdragon, or are we talking two different processors and both are in there? Editing this is above paragraph here now what I meant to say was people don't call the Snapdragon processor a Qualcomm processor. Most people would not know what you're talking about. They hear Snapdragon in the marketing , the marketing is what called called Qualcomm is responsible for as well as the design. Well Snapdragon is just a name, it's a name that people are familiar with in the marketing of the phone. Also doesn't account for the security chip by Qualcomm which you did not also point out its location.
The NFC sensor is so much weaker than on other Motorola's how the hell do we increase the viability of the signal getting to the sensor it's it's I have to touch it to devices in my life
Would require to disassemble the phone and pry the screen off as well (which would pose a risk of breaking or damaging the screen) since the flex cable is ran in between the frame and screen and sits under the motherboard. Most likely you would need to get a new screen with frame combo that comes with the new buttons pre installed.
Once the phone is taken apart, all that is left is to heat up the screen and pry it off. Nothing else to it. Also they usually sell screen's pre attached to the frame so you can just move over the parts from one frame to the other without having to pry any screen off and re apply etc.
Hi, if you want you can contact motorola, they have a repair center you can send your phone in to get repaired. I think they charge like $149 for screen replacement if I am not mistaken.
@@PBKreviews I think they're idiot's if that was the case then they didn't say anything about it when I asked who makes the screens for they're phones its ridiculous
@@williambrown2098 I don't think these screens are made for, like way cheaper. And moto, at least for my country has a list of spare part price list on their regional website. I usually advise to get 3rd party insurance (or Accidental Damage Protection).
You would probably need to replace the midframe which usually comes attached with the screen to fix the bend. You can check on mobiledefenders.com for replacement parts
@@PBKreviews im sorry to bother but is the LCD Frame the case or the screen www.mobiledefenders.com/lcd-frame-assembly-for-moto-one-ace-5g-xt2113-hazy-silver.html
