I'm not ignoring you or being rude if I don't manage to reply to your question or comment.
I'm receiving 1000's of messages each day and I'm finding it impossible to find enough time to reply to them all.
I was spending more hours each week answering all the comments than I was making these videos.
I promise to read every comment and sometimes reply and will take on board any feedback or suggestions.
Thanks for your support :-) - Навчання та стиль
Your tutorials have been nominated as unintentional asmr. Congrats on your achievement
I have listened to lessons videos for years to help me sleep.
it's 2022 and I've just brought my old Lumia 720 back to life thanks to this video. Thank you very much for that!
Btw, please don't stop uploading these videos. They're so helpful and clear.
Mate, you rock! I've fixed loads of screens/phones by following your guides. They are always very clear and easy to follow (I for one appreciate you putting these on youtube). Keep up the good work ;)
followed your video to the letter , changed screen , back cover , ear piece , loud speaker . top video , keep up the good work. works a charm , thanks
I just love watching your videos even though i dont have problems with my phones(lumia 520,820,925) i think you're the best here in youtube keep it up
Your videos still hold great value for people who want to repair their devices. Thank you!
By far the most awesome video for lumia 720 repair....hats off
broke mine just now... already ordered a new digitizer. this video will be very useful. Thanks!
Highly appreciated. Replaced the LCD without a hitch. Wonderful video.
Thanks many thanks, excelent video , I've repaired my phone with your tutorial so very greatful for what you have put up. (From Leon,Gto. Mexico).
Great video !! I'd like also to mention that we can see that this is a very high quality mobile phone. Then only dark point is that the digitizer can not be separed/replaced independently of the LCD screen
Keep on with your excellent job!!
Very useful video, I just managed to fix my phone and now everythng works properly! My problem was a broken glass, even if when I opened it I realized that the lcd was cracked as well. So I bought the display lcd+glass on eBay for around € 30 (this made everything even easier) and replaced it. Grazie mille ;)
Very thorough and well done tutorial. I fixed my phone without any prior experience. Thanks a lot!
your voice is so soothing that you can put a crying baby to sleep..... very educational video
After a drop my Lumia 720 got its screen busted, and because of that I found your video. Another thing is that the mic stopped working (actually began to work erratically) a few days after the crash. I had figured its connector had probably unlatched because of the impact and was going to dismantle the whole phone to get it set properly, but as your video shows its location, I just turned the phone screen down and squished it around that connector area. Works like a charm now. Thanks a lot! Now for the screen repair... I'm gonna try to unbond the glass/digitizer and re-glue it to the lcd. I can comment how it went here, if anyone's interested.
yeah tell me if it worked
Viktor Mars Nope. Instead of separating the glass from the LCD I managed to destroy the LCD. I was cautious and did not apply much force to it, but the screen is VERY EASY to tear. When it does, a dozen layers of polarizers and micro lenses arrays and diffusers came pouring from inside it. It's amazing how many layers make the screen in these phones! Anyway, that busted the phone for good and I would not recommend trying this aproach. Buy the screen+frame and simply replace the internals. I've bought this assembly for around 40 USD and will, once again, try to repair the thing. Also, the mic worked for about a week before beginning to stutter again, so I already bought a new mic+usb PCB assembly (around 3 usd). There's no reason to throw the phone away because of two components, so i'm not giving up on it!
Vinicius Abreu any links you could provide us with where we could source the whole assembly? I'm sorry to read that you have had shattered it, after reading this I've pretty much stopped right after reading your comment. I just don't know now, whether after separating the LCD from the digitizer, if attaching together requires the same sort of sticky translucent tape or I'll be fine without it and just glueing the edges ? thanks mate
Amazing what u r doing....simply amazing.....thumb up!...keep doing what u do.
Bravo from Patrutz(Rome,Italy).
it's great that you've started to make videos,thanks for your work!)
you really helped me when i was dissasembling my galaxy s 2!)
awesome!!! I broke my Lumia 720 glass and was thinking of repairing it myself. Thanks i didn't think it was that easy!!! I'm going replace mine and I'll subscribe if it works!!! Care charged me half of the amount of the phone.
thank you, everything worked out here, good luck to you. Brazil went through here.
Amazing... you show every detail ! Good job !
Great, very good job. Thank you Sir for this great presentation
Great video. Very clear and informative (as usual). I have found that separating the digitizer from the LCD is extremely tricky, much harder than the Samsung Galaxy S3/S4, and almost impossible. If you are going to attempt a repair I would recommend replacing the LCD, Glass & Digitizer at the same time.
U are a master chef thx for u are doing i appreciate . From Tunisia
You sir, deserve more likes! I'd had a problem with mine with the volumen down button, but only disassembly and assembly can solve it! Now I think I would buy a new body :D Thank you!
Did you fully disassembly? Or you just removed the rear casing? Because I aslo have the volume down issue.
hi, you only need to put of the case and there is the button flex, but is a full line (vol up, vol, down, block and camera)
Amazing as always. So clean, complete (and relaxing). I wonder what kind of glue is that flexible glue. I'll try to Google it and see it's components. Maybe I find a similar one here.
Thanks a lot.
Only two notes .. For the first screw i had to use a T3 screwdriver.
I had to replace my rear camera and when i was able to do it , i found that it was glued to the case...
Man is very handy.Good video.THX.
Great video!! Help me a lot!
Most important is to keep the battery disconnected until its 100% dry inside, even if it seems to work ok it can stop working after a few days. Any trapped water will slowly eat away at the copper circuit. As the warranty is now voided remove the back cover and unplug the battery, then leave the phone in a stream of hot air for an hour or more. Try and keep the temperature below 70ºC. If you have access to a vacuum chamber it would only take 30 minutes for it to be 100% dry
Thank you very very much for this video! I just replaced my screen and digitizer with your introductions :)
me too :)
I guess Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly lost the login password. I would love any tricks you can give me.
@Gianni Decker instablaster =)
@Camilo Ramon i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Happy Halloween !
yes, I have one on the way to me and I hope to shoot in the next few weeks..
You save me. Thank you so much
muito bom sua demonstraçao
wow you'r voice...so smooth
Nice tutorial!!!!!
You can save my phone ty man!!!
brilliant work lessons
Nice job
gracias por compartir tu video
Hi Thanks for this very informative video. I own a lumia 720 and its power button is not functioning properly ( there is some contact issue ) so for repairing that do I need to remove the flex strip with camera, volume and power from the frame. ??
Congrats for your excellent video(s).
I'm going through the part not yet covered here, I mean the replacement of the touch digitizer glass alone.
Although already having the LOCA glue and UV lamp to cure this, I still had a surprise: are the lower, smaller flex of the digitizer glass and the LCD flex, soldered together (4 tabs) as it seems?
Thanks!
very good video
love his voice
genius video!
what kind of an adhesive is that you are using? ... for anyone attempting to do this, it's relatively easy, but make sure that you apply a lot of heat to the screen when attempting to detach it from the frame, and also if separating the digitizer from the lcd. that make a lot of a difference.
You are the Best
you're great.today I received only the glass,look a video to try change it.
any news?
cara eu não sei se vc entende portugues BR mas obrigado meu celular tinha travado e não conseguia reiniciar ai fiz o seu metodo.
cara muito obrigado
Hi
I've repaired many phones with your tutorials so very greatful for what you've put up!!!
I do have a question, I've replaved an lcd on the lumia 720.
The LCD works, but the digitiser doesn't? When I enquired via a phone call to local a repair shop, they said there are different revision numbers which aren't compatible?
As I threw the old one away, I can't tell what the old one was, if any?
To your knowledge, is this correct or do you have any suggestions for me?
Thanks.
Excellent
U made it look so easy that I tried this out and my screen works just fine now. :) But the camera app won't open and when I double tap to wake the screen, it does not wake up. I guess it is the proximity sensor perhaps, that is not working? Please help...
Excellent.
This looks like quite a complicated phone to take apart.
I reckon one of these days you should make a video about the HTC One. Where you basically just use a chainsaw to split it into two parts, and then duct-tape them back together. :)
its amazing
thanx! i just fixed usb dock! tumb up
One of the best videos that i have seen about how to Disassembly & Assembly. Many thanks. I dropped my phone and the digitizer stopped working i think it is due to the digitizer connector disconnecting from main board. Any thoughts on this issue?
it might be worth checking the plug but you'll probably need a new display assembly
Do you speak while shooting your videos or edit your voice into them afterwards?
This always ate my mind.
Hello, what should I check if, after I reassembled the phone, the home and go back touch buttons don't light up?
what if i only have a new glass without a digitzer attached...does that also work?
my screen is shattered and i want to replace it, however i only received the glass without the digitizer.
Great video. I replaced the screen. Everything went seemingly well but when I first started the device and after giving the pin a message appeared: Try again in 221864 minutes. -- Basically nothing can be done to proceed anywhere. The volume can be controlled and I can swipe out the action center and see some notifications but if I press any of those nothing happens. I'd rather not do hard reset since I have some really important data there. Any ideas?
Very good.
Hi, the liquid glue that you are using in order to reinstall components is ordinary or a special one?
thank you
Thx for video and instructions, but how can I fix the SIM tray? It doesn't close...
very very interesting!
Hi LE55ONS, i have broken digitizer amd i want to change it but im too scary to do it by myself without your guide, so can make a video where you change the digitizer if it is possible?
I used to do the voice over live but when I made a mistake I had to put the phone back together and start again. This took many hours until I started doing the voiceover after editing the video together :-)
and what is that wire with you are spliting the digitizer made of ?
Hi great videos! Can you do disassemble videos about tablets and notebooks.
Excellent video. I'va managed to repair my phone without any problems.
and another one :-)
Marcel Brinkkemper Do you know what the microphone ?
I'm not sure when, but I will have a go. I've been told its much harder than doing a Galaxy S3..
my glass got cracked its been 4 months now and it worked pretty good. but now the screen is abruptly working on its own like opening apps closing on its own and some crap. what do i do? it costs so much to repair with a new screen. I've searched for display screen on internet thinking i cud get it for lesser price,but the searches showed "Digitalizer screen" and "LCD screen+digitalizer",digitalizer costs much lesser than LCD and i'm confused what to buy and what exactly the problem with my screen is. can u explain me what is the difference btw them and suggest what to buy? as my phone just got cracked but worked properly till yesterday,it aint working properly now though. plz suggest me something,im waiting,thank you.
I broke the earpiece while removing it, should i leave it out? Will it have an affect on the motherboard?
my heart almost stoped when u opned the phone o.O lol
What is the wire what i need to use, when im taking glass ?
thank u
my speaker is damaged and i wanna repair out myself. from where can i buy a speaker to replace the old. please reply
hello! my camera button was not working i tried to check whats the prob by watchng ur video but when i turned the cover back phone is now not even starting :O
gracias me suscribo
Hello kind one. Where can I get a little LED-Flash for my Lumia 720? I get one via online store but without a Led-Flash. :( I Have just a empty plastic hole :(
Please help me
yes I've done the Note 10.1 and the Nexus 7, I hope to cover them all one day..
Excellent channel, sir! I do hope your promise to cover the TOUCH/LCD Separation in a future video (like you said @19:00) will be held SOONER than later! I definitely need to get a look into this (touch cracked). I wonder if your video on L920 would be equivalent on that. Doubt on it..
The 920 had an air gap instead of the optical adhesive which makes it easier to replace the digitizer..
I wondered that. I believe L720 looks like L900 on that matter. Actually nobody has published a successful separataton of those 2 "bad boys" except after 8 hrs of airdryer.. ^^ Add to that nobody showed how to repack them later. The fact that the digitizer only is sold (over ebay) w/o any bundled adhesive film feels like quite problematic.. All that said your technique of the wire would definitely be worth seeing.. ;)
***** Sorry to come back on that matter, but I just discovered that all the LCD+Touch I can see on sale come with the Frame bundled already. Are you aware of any LCD/Touch bare assy selling? I mean, all your dedication with the hot air gun to gently separate the metal frame from the LCD/Touch would be meaningless if the only sellable parts around are with the frame included.. Thanks and keep up with the good work!
TheMacco26 If would be nice if only the complete assembly was for sale, but as time goes on and the compatables start flooding the market you'll see the screens for sale without the frame. Lots of people buy the screen only without realising. Hopefully this one covers both..
Thanks :-)
Спасибо!:)
is that the p710 or 715?
Do you have any video about the Lumia 730/5??? D:
To replace the lumia 1520 is the same process?
Dear Sir, can you show us how to disassemble the plastic sim/sd card cover from the metal tray? many many thanks!!!
you should do a nokia lumia 520 full disassembly i will be glad if you do..
What about Lumia 730/Lumia 735 digitizer replacement? is it the same?
heehee... a guitar pick :D
thnxx btw
my sim card not reading.golden things comes out from simhilder while i drag out.how to fix it?
Your video is no doubt very appropriate.
I have a small doubt
If suppose the front glass is damaged(broken) but everything is intact and the phone is working excellently. Only problem is the broken glass looks bad. If I want to replace only the glass(leaving the LCD), would u think it wll work out.
Need your valuable advice at the earliest
Some of the comments below say they have tried without success, so you'll need to replace the digitizer and display assembly
Time to get comfy
I ordered the glass surface of 720 ... you can separate lcd from the glass? I saw that in the video did not averte. If yes, how do you separate them? thanks
if you read down through all the comments you'll see its not really possible on this phone..
yes akanksha, me too, moreover i tried to fix it but now i have no sound, no mic, and no camera nor flash ! i'm desperate
are you going to make a video for nokia lumia 520 disassembly?!!
what is the strong thin wire to seperate lcd and glass? any suggestions?
its called 'Molybdenum wire' but if you read down through the comments you'll find someone has already tried unsuccessfully..
