@@lili_glitch_lili2389 are you stupid? Vancouver is in Canada!! Why can't you just google it instead of asking dump, stupid questions. I just hate that
It doesn't remain functional on Apple devices because they pair each home button/touch id sensor to the individual phone, therefore only allowing Apple to repair it, which they will then charge a full display repair fee. This results in higher profits and consumers being forced to upgrade their phones
@@justineasdale2864 but if im faced with that situation, i'll probably just destroy the phone fully and buy a phone with a repairable function from anywhere. Phones like that are useless af lol.
Hi Hugh! You are my greatest inspiration to start repairing phones by myself and because of your amazing videos I decided to start my own RU-vid channel where I do these restorations! Great video as always, keep it up🔥🔥
And to professionally do it, costs a lot in equipment. Even the Freeze and Liquid Nitrogen methods. So while you do enjoy the profit margins and the skills needed to do so, you chew into this initially first with the cost of equipment. At least what I looked into.
Your videos always end up in my recommenced and i always end up clicking. Finally ended up subscribing, Great content! I work at a repair shop and do similar repairs like you have. If i can recommend some tools I would get is a hot plate and set it at 70 c (heat recommended by samsung to us) and lay the back of the phone on it for about 10 minutes. It gets all the adhesive loose and easy to cut through. Hold it in one hand with a heat resistant glove and use the other to cut through adhesive. Takes practice but haven't cracked a back in a while that way. Now we have a machine that will do the lifting for us. Another tool that works wonders is an iPlastix, works like a playing card or pick but more maneuverable. Use that for so many repairs when I have to work remote repairs. To make the adhesive on the back come off easier as well is to put it on a hot plate and use one had to peel up the adhesive and the other to hold it down, use the pulled off adhesive and tap it onto the residue and it will take it off in the process. Using the heat gun is risky business because sometimes the paint underneath will peel if it gets too hot in one area.
Omg its so satisfying to watch your repair videos i love it when you repair iPhones i kind of want to start doing the same but i have nothing to begin with, hopefully we will get the new video soon.
Hugh,hi,keep doing this man. Your videos give me confidence to fix my own devices 🤜🤛on my own rather than waisting money by getting the job done by someone else. Thank you bro
Thank you so much with your videos it has inspired me to start fixing my own phones and I opened up a repair shop in Canada a few months ago but I have a lot of phones that have been sent in to fix so I’m really enjoying my quarantine ! Anyways thank you for helping me with my phone repair shop in Canada 🇨🇦!
Dude you know what. I really do look up to you. Your videos are very helpful and no one can provide anymore information more than you. Shout out from India.
Man since I met Hugh he is the only legitmate guy who repair phones for educational purposes not like other youtubers who do their videos for money. Continiue like this Hugh I like your vids.
Hugh, thank you for your video on replacing the back screen. My S10e camera screen got a hole in it somehow and was really messing up any photos I tried to take. I watched 2 or 3 other do-it-yourself type videos but none of them made sense to me. After watching yours I felt much better about doing this replacement by myself. I just got done replacing the back screen and (thank God) everything is working just fine now. Thank you for giving your time to help those of us with lesser skills. :)
Hugh, you really need to invest in an CPB heat pad. It makes opening devices stuck together with adhesive ten times easier. Trust me, you won’t use hot air again. Great videos.
Jalim plays not entirely true - only if the device left on there for an extended period of time, however this heat pad has a timer on it so it’s impossible to leave it on. Great tool if used properly - I use it daily.
3:46 or if it breaks of you can re-solder it on, although this is pretty difficult since the pads are about 3-4mm in size and you can't bridge any solder together
Awesome, I love this repair videos, great job man. You are a master at this. I absolutely love your time we'll spent for these amazing repairs. Great job man keep it up
Im quite happy that i bought the s10+, it seems like the phone is easy if i need to replace and repair over time. No hidden traps or other limitations after repair or replacement.
@Josh mate you can find them for cheaper than the samsung store yk when the S10 was 3 months old I found one for £400 new 128gb In the green colour also £800 is MORE THAN THE PHONE NEW AT THE SAMSUNG STORE so I dont see where you are coming from with that logic lol
As someone who did mobile phone repairs in the past, two things bother me in this video. 1. The fact that you destroyed the original lcd screen, which is quite expensive and can be refurbished 2. Sticking the new screen on Adhesive. Clearly, it's extremely unreliable and after some months of battery/phone heating it will start to come apart, no matter how strong the adhesive might seem. For the back panel it can work, as you will have to take it off the replace the battery, it will do the job. But the best way is to stick the new lcd+touchscreen panel is by using the transparent B7000/E7000/E8000 or the black T-7000 glue. These are extremely trustworthy and you won't have to think about your lcd falling away from the phone. I like your channel, just point these some things. Best Regards, Eugene
Hugh, i have a message for you : You are the one who inspired me to persue my dream by restoring iphones on youtube i started my channel and already restored an iphone 4s, a 4, and even restoring a 5c and a 5 right now :) i also am replacing an ipad 2 digitizer :) i think i should try to fix a samsung Lol never tried it if anyone can help me persue my dream it'll be ALOT appreciated :)
Definitely do that iPad and a few more iPads first. Samsung’s take a lot more heat and finesse to open. iPads are similar but a lot more forgiving. I make my techs go thru at least 10 iPads before looking at a Samsung phone.
you don't. but Samsung's authorized repair centers have a program where it can use the barometer to read the pressure around the phone, to see if it's water resistant or not. some third parties have this tool as well but not a lot do
Go into *#0*# Open up sensors Locate barometer Press on the phone. If the pressure increases, then decreases, then comes back to reference value, you can safely assume the phone is air tight, it won't let dust in, but i still wouldn't trust it with water resistance.
I feel that Samsung’s back glass is fun to remove! The first time I did the S10 I did a big boy move and I shoved a thin metal took between the glass and frame and in one go it SURPRISINGLY went through. I then heated it and took it off. I just use a vacuum suction cup now.
New screens are a few hundred bucks, so they probably just wanted to get rid of it cause its an expensive repair. I paid €300 to get my S10+ screen replaced when I dropped it and smashed the screen.
In Amazon you can get a used S10+ with a good display for ~450 US dollars. The display replacement he used from iFixit was 289 and the phone itself was 400, I don't think that's worth the money.
When I saw the phone box in the starting of the video, I got suspicious that it might be the UAE model coz it has that QR-code on the left top corner of the phone, Well, it is the UAE model! Greetings from the UAE, hope you all self quarantine at home and enjoying the video :)
@@HughJeffreys TRA Stands for: Telecommunications Regulatory Authority. It's the entity that regulates the telecommunication companies here and also to protect the consumer. If a phone has TRA ID then it's a genuine phone. This was done to stop people selling counterfeit phones. Even Bluetooth headphones from Samsung have TRA ID to give the consumer a relief that it's a genuine product. These TRA registered phone sell for more money here in the UAE as they can have warranties on them.
Hi Hugh, nice video again. I would like to know if there is a big price difference between your replacements (before you tried ifixit) and the ifixit replacements? And if so, do you think the difference is worth it? And I would like to know what your go to-brand for screen protectors is. Thanks. :)
S10+ has got to be one of the best if not the best phones made by Samsung, either in terms of external designs or internal functions. I’m owning a ceramic version S10* now and I’m super happy with it. I really like it’s overall design, it feels sleek and modern
This handset is actually from the UK (model G975F, F being the designation for the UK.) All UK Samsung Galaxy handsets from the S6 (I think) have that UAE option, unsure as to why though!
I bought a normal Galaxy S10 with cracked glass for 45€ last week. Compared to your device that was really cheap! I unfortunately had to remove the FRP (Google Account Lock), but now it works fine!
Kinda surprised iFixit don't have an electric/battery screwdriver. I thought i saw TronicsFix use one, along with the guy at Strange Parts. Would be a lot easier on the hands/fingers lol. Good job on the repair Jugh! Let us know what the phone is like!
@Hugh Jeffreys I know you're from Australia mate so I was wondering, if you got the parts from iFixit, did you get it from the US store then? since when looking at iFixit Aus website, it doesnt come up with any replacement screens for the S10+... thanks mate and great vids.
Great guide once again i always use ifixit and you will love that s10+ got mine the day it came out just however switched the galaxy note 10+ as im a huge note fan
Hi Hugh I attempted a screen replacement on a iPhone 6s and it all went well thanks to your video . Well until I went to plug the screen in. The connector connecting the home button fell off the ribbon cable and now I have no home button THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE. So I’ve spent more on screens than I have on the phone. Is there a way I can fix it or do I have to spend yet another £20 on a new display?
Hugh I suggest cleaning and disinfecting any phones that are bought secondhand as you don’t always know where they have been and what they went through. Also, I just realized how the repair shops might try to scam you, you see, when I use to have an iPhone 6, and I got another phone, I decided to take the battery out of it, and I saw that the screen ribbons did not have a bracket on them, so if I drop my phone, they could have disconnect and it might of seemed like my screen stoped working, and I had to pay extra for that.
Just keep the phone (S10+) as your daily driver. Trust me, you would never regret it thanks to the headphone jack. That's why I love proper phones restroration videos from you.
United Arab Emirates have 220v sockets of types C, D and G. The UK socket is type G. I live in England and I love our sockets until you stand on a plug on the floor which really hurts. However, they are all individually fused which serves to make them the safest types availible if you don't die from the pain of standing on them.
Hi Hugh.Great Vids. Loads of info. You've inspired me to refube a Samsung S 8. Any advice on where I can purchase a screen frame and back that won't break the bank. Thanks
How could you able to repair all these different device? This had taken you many years to develop these skills. When you do all these work with very efficiently, I wish i could do it too.
Jeff, get some 99,9% isopropyl alcohol and get a squeeze bottle with needle pin. Juice up the edges of the glass and the adhesive will loosen up very fast. + Won't damage device what so ever
I love watching your videos and how you restore phones. I want to do this in future, but i dont know how to start? I'm 13 and I really want to do this, but my parents don't let me do it.
