Samsung Galaxy A53 5G Disassembly Teardown Repair Video Review 

👍

👍

Bro it goes to show you which A series Samsung is really really prioritising ,the A73 of all the A series last year even didn't have one !....I'm confused myself.

@@dukebrobbey64 Yeah, I owned a A52s for a while. It's a fantastic package overall, with the headphone jack and sd card slot people always ask for, with plenty of processing power to boot. It's a shame they decided to place a Kinder egg haptic motor in it though, it really ruined the experience for me that I sold it within a few months.

@@somayough whats was wrong with it?

@@somayough whats a kinder egg haptic motor?

Thanks 😀👍

Thanks, glad it was helpful :)

Mine keeps going on and off now it has gone off completely won't go on

@@marykkal773 Mine did this too! After only 4 months of owning it, it just said Samsung on the screen for a few hours then NOTHING! Were you able to fix it? I've sent mine back to Samsung in Sydney... Fingers crossed haha

thanks and you're welcome

A marvel of miniaturization.

Thanks!

Thanks. I just ordered it, once it comes in I will do it. :)

Thank you and you're welcome 😀

Can you actually confirm that the A73 has a proxi sensor?

Thanks! 😀👍

Yeah, sometimes they get a hairline crack which is hard to see or not visible in the screen itself and stop working

i have this same problem, did you ever solve it?

@potptvpatsonthepulse5701 I bought a screen replacement and replaced my screen. It took a lot of time and effort. The screen wasn't as responsive, and within a month part of it stopped working and I couldn't put my pin in to unlock. I am typing this from my the new phone I had to get. It's a pretty tedious process to replace the screen yourself if you're not already tech savvy. I was quoted $200 to get a replacement screen at a phone repair shop but instead, I paid $75 for the screen and $9 for some tools. $10 for double-sided phone adhesive to put the back cover on. I wish I just bought the new phone and skipped the replacement thing. The replacement screens are cheap

​@@invectrum Thanks a lot for the response! Yeah, I've done a few screen replacements on my phones over the years and the quality of parts has definitely gotten a lot worse. I think you're right about just buying a new phone

suction cup for smartphones, or pry pick

Hi, it could be a simple fix but not always. You would need to take it apart to see if there are any loose cables. If not, it might be damage to the screen causing it not to work or other parts.

Hi would u like to tell, what happen to ur device rn? Cus i’ve been through the same thing like u

It can be from defective or poor quality replacement parts. It can also be from software issues. Sometimes you need to update the phone software to the latest which will work properly with replacement screens. Try updating if the software it not the latest version and see if it helps.

👍😀

Thanks! 😀

Hi, no will be fine. the microphone is seated above the hole so it won't be damaged.

@@PBKreviews thanks

Might be the RAM or storage/ROM chip. Not sure.

тоже

If you get the info, i'm interested too. I did the same.

@@AstroKevin apparently the secondary microphone Is mainly for noise cancelling while calling, it isn't used for recording, at least not with the a53 5G's stock sound recording app. Some phones have the "interview" mode for recording which does use the secondary microphone, but this one doesn't

Thank you 👍

Try watching jerry rig everything regarding this

Hi, you will be fine since the filter and the mic are both seated above the hole so basically its like a sideways L channel. So the sim eject tool would basically just hit the end of the frame wall and no components.

@@PBKreviews I have a question for this. The phone It will still be waterproof?

@@PBKreviews OK I have a quick question, I have this phone but recently every once in a while it would freeze and either it would restart or just straight up turn off by itself. Any ideas as to what may have happened?

@@PBKreviews no need to worry about waterproofing? Because it has no damage at all?

Make sure the connector is connected properly, and also you might need to update the phone software and make sure its on the latest firmware. You may need to use your old working screen to do that before installing the new one. If that doesn't help, it might be a defective replacement.

It's a money grab. Just like removing the charging brick.

I think it would have had enough space, its the same layout on the bottom as the A52 pretty much and the A52 had the headphone jack. I understand the need for headphone jacks but manufacturers I feel are moving more toward the wireless newer era stuff. Since a lot of people now a days are starting to carry wireless buds and earphones, not as many are using the headphone jack so its becoming an old technology. Just like car cigarette lighters, back in the day they all had em, people still smoke but cars don't have them anymore.

@@PBKreviews Wireless, while convenient, introduces latency, and audio quality will never be the same as that of a jack. Users should not be forced to buy an accessory because the manufacturer deems it "Outdated/Old", it should just be standard like it has been.

Thank you 😀👍

forever 🤴🏻💯🙌🏻

@@bryantsmith8164 😀✌️

No

Yeah if company does it they replace the seal

👍

Comes from mine as well...no worries

Not sure what is causing it to say. Could be many things.

I think the phone should work fine without any issues if you disconnect it.

@@PBKreviews thank you. I am also surprised to see a Li-Ion battery in there, as a variety of sources such as gsmarena describe it as having a Li-Po battery

the midframe is aluminum alloy but the frame border or sides are plastic

It's just the camera assembly and its normal for it to move around.

@@PBKreviews Thank you for replying. I'm just surprised that I haven't noticed it up until now as it's fairly loud clicking. I suppose once you start worrying about things it suddenly seems obvious.

It's the stabilizer (ois) of the camera

No its ois camera which makes sound

​@PBKreviews Thank you for the reply because I was worried about the same issue on mine I already had my phone for a year now and I just noticed when I shook my phone. Cool that it's normal. But I recently drank at a party a little to much and I passed out with my phone in my pocket which unfortunately I woke up to a messy situation 🙃 which made my whole case get wet if you know what I mean 😅. I was able to get it turned back on but now I am experiencing at times the phone freezes and shuts down and restarts. I wrote samsung support they seen after a few error reports that my AP is suffering a minor voltage surge. Could it be it is still wet by that chipset. And it does get very hot by the camera when it shuts down and freezes. I did a factory reset that it did help out another but when. It freezes and shuts down it does it like at least ten times and I take off any casing I have on it for it to normalize it to stay on. I would want to open it to wipe down all of the motherboard and stuff but with my big clumsy fingers I might make things worse. I am just hoping it will completely dry off by itself. Any suggestions.

:)

Hi, no you will be fine. Mic and filter are seated above the hole and would not be damaged.

@@PBKreviews Thank-you sir for the reply

Hi, you will be fine. The mic and filter are seated above the hole. They wont be damaged.

@@PBKreviews Hello again. The microphone was not damaged as it was on the motherboard so it wasn't flush with the hole. I asked to confirm.

Make sure the two wire cables/coaxial cables aren't damaged and connected, as well as the flex cable leading from the sub board to the main board. If all those are ok, and you tried a replacement sub board/charger port board and still have the same issue, then you might either have a faulty battery which is shorting something (highly unlikely though) or you may have damaged something on the main board when the battery was being replaced.

@@PBKreviewsthank you so much for the fast response! Really appreciate your answer, it gave me hope to continue… I found a very tiny part (looks like resistor or capacitor) on the main board that fell off. Not sure how can I put it back in place at home. I have a second working A53 so at least I can identify the place where it belongs.

@Dimitrios Galaxy A53 isn't good so Galaxy A52s is better.

@@highsociety5 what has better?

@@dimatha7 have many youtube to show between A53 and A52s so one thing A53 is good for selfie only others No

Nope

Thanks! I probably would go with the s20fe.

non I'd go with the a52s

@@3mar00ss6 s20fe is superior in every aspect

@@thatvoiddude6188 no lol

@@3mar00ss6better processor, better camera ,wireless charging, metal Frame, 120hz screen. These are all on the S20FE

Yes

an external aftermarket one that connects to the charger port, yeah but aside from that no.

Lol yep but that graphite pad still transfers heat but would be much better of it atleast had a some thermal paste on the frame or a 3d layer of graphite on the frame as well.

@@PBKreviews thermal paste is more effective bro

I'm shocked too,but these graphene or graphite sheet where in the world would they be able to "transfer" heat when there's lil space in the phone ?...down clocking performance in relation to heat to sustain stability is the only way to go ,as is being done.

@@dukebrobbey64 yea bro samsung is doing poor implementation

@@PBKreviews how about a33 in your opinion?

the border is plastic but the midframe is metal.

Thank you, and yep not sure.

Yes. You would need to apply new original pre cut adhesive or a new back cover/battery door which came with the adhesive pre installed to retain the water/dust resistance.

you're welcome

In Korea, the a53 came in blue, white, and black. So I am using the a53 in blue.

@@아기오리 Is this phone good? How is camera?

@@subratachakraborty9630 good! Cameras are great! All grate!

Since most put it in a case, that's not much of a downside. More complain about scratching and grip, hence a case.

lol :)

Once I am able to get it, will do it.

@@PBKreviews ok thank you 🙂👍

Hi, I got it in the US and the model number was sm-a536e

@@PBKreviews I see. Some Samsung customer care people were saying its SD inside. So I wanted to know is it for real in NA

As nowadays Samsung making display for apple and other companies, and chipset for Qualcomm

lol :)

Make sure there aren't any apps running in the back ground that may be draining it. Also you can try backing up all your data and doing a factory reset to see if it helps. Or you may need a new battery.

lol it's not intended to be scary but I guess I can see how it can come off that way. Just one of the free tracks available to use as back ground music, thought it was calm and soothing.

Yep

You're welcome!
