It’s been a while since the last uneventful repair. Repairability is going to worse for sure. This Samsung tablets are great, cheap and simple. Mainly use an iPad at the moment but also have an old 2016 TAB. After so many years the TAB A still works and does what it is expected to do.
Yeah, this old tablets are not very fast but fast enough to use, specially if you adjust your expectations. All the apps that I have in the mobile and in the iPad also are in the Samsung and work well enough. The main problem is not even Samsung's fault. At least mine comes with Widevine L1, but neither Netflix nor Prime Video recognize that and adjudicate it the L3, so those 2 platforms will only stream in low quality (around 700x500). It is a pitty because the screen is very decent. And you get an SD card slot (which you don't in an iPad) so you can put in there all the movies and series that you might want to watch without caring about storage. Right now devices with Android 6 are starting to be dropped from support of certain apps, mine has Android 8 so I guess that won't be affected by that for a maybe 2 years more. To remain usable until 2022/23 would not be bad at all for a basic tablet launched in 2016.
Just saying for everybody here: if you want to disconnect the screen (on any device) make sure the battery is disconnected. If that's not possible at least be absolutely sure the device is turned off. You may blow components on the logicboard of you disconnect the screen while it is turned on.
Yes I did that mistake some time ago and can confirm you should do that. It happened to my S7 Edge when I wanted to replace the cracked screen after I got a second broken phone I salvaged a good screen from. After removing the old screen cable while the battery was still connected, nothing every showed up on the old or new screen. I then had to sell all the parts as broken. I got a reply from the buyer who said the second screen was perfectly fine, so I broke the GPU on the board or something like this.
That tablet looks so simple inside. It’s kinda nice in a way. The iPad Pro you restored had so much crammed inside, but this tablet looked like there was breathing room
@@clickbaitpro as an apple user I agree. You need a friggin heat gun to take apart an iPad. The older iPhones literally had numbers telling you how to disassemble it. Definitely a step backwards.
This is the same tablet model i use and happy to know how repairable it is. Samsung tablets have the right software but the lower end models are bottlenecked by the weak internals.
I see at 7:56 there is a FRP lock notification, It is great to see that there are ways to remove this unlike with Apple devices which have iCloud activation locks. Otherwise this device would have been only fit for parts. Another great Video Hugh!
@@trevorjmaendel there are very good walkthroughs available on UA-cam which guide you through the process of bypassing the frp lock and then login using your own Google account. Then reset the device. Frp gone! With Apple devices it is not possible to bypass the iCloud lock notification like with Android devices. But apple enjoy ripping people off from the moment you buy into the apple ecosystem.
@@retrotech11 I have yet to find one that works. Mine is missing a whole bunch of the loopholes that most people use. I've tried reflashing the OS as well as modding it to no success. Not a big deal as I got it for free but it's a shame not to be able to use it at all...
Watching this on my 2020 Tab A7, it's a great value for money with quad speakers and a metal build for £150 (open box) and much better than my Tab A 10.1 2016 I had before
Hey, buddy! I'm also watching this video on the Tab A7 and frankly speaking, it's an extremely awesome tablet for the features it possesses, and it gives a lot of value for its price.
i have a tab A, it still works very well, other than needing to replace it after the frame started popping out making it impossible to charge. oh and it's screen protector got destroyed after i dropped it in a parking lot.
I still have an older version of this one, tab a 2016 with s pen. used it for painting for more than 2 years then gave it to my mom. she uses it all the time. big bright scene, good sound, great for media consumption. almost 5 years later it still rocks and I still use it for a quick drawing every now and then. tablet from this brand is so much better than I expected.
I've seen the most recent Tab A8 from Samsung today and honestly it's BALLS. The screen is dim and tinted blue. Wouldn't recommend. But all other more or less recent 10" Tab A models are better in this regard as I've heard.
Hey Hugh, where do you buy your adhesive? I have to reassemble this exact tablet model in a couple weeks when the replacement charge port arrives, so I might snag some adhesive instead of using the usual E6000
I bought two of them myself. The first one was 8" which I gave to my mother after I bought a 10" one. Fortunately I took care of them both and have cases so they are in excellent condition.
Just a note about the repair, from a guy that also specializes in mobile device and laptop repairs. The small control board for the digitizer has some large grounding pads, that were originally connected to the back metal display shield using conductive metal-type double sided tape. If the touch works - then that's great, but just keep in mind that some pcbs/flex cables require proper grounding. You can buy that specific type of conductive-metal strans tape on ebay or amazon. As always, great video, enjoyed watching it, wish you luck!

Yeah I always get Wi-Fi models instead of the cellular ones because it's cheaper, I don't normally take my devices (except my phone) out of home, and when I do, I have my phone with me so can hotspot across from a phone to the wi-fi device. Plus, if you use a cellular connection, you need a new SIM card in each device, which means another data package, which will get pricey the more devices you use. One central cellular device and wi-fi hotspotting works wonders fr me.
I actually have this device, it's okay, however gotten significantly slower after going onto one ui 2.5. One thing i was confused by was that; wouldn't the device ask for the original owners email address(and not letting you enter your own until the old one is imputed) as the device has been reset incorrectly?

I like my Tab A, it feels sturdier than my iPad and is a dependable machine for file copying and running Retroarch. Both tablets are great in kiddy cases.
you're not knuckles
i'm literally going right now to pick one up by the time i posted this, my older Samsung Tab S 8.4 just can't keep up nowadays but i don't want to give up the AMOLED display at the same time.
Hello sir, I have the same for me and I have the same how much does a broken screen cost, sir
You can break a screen quite cheaply.
The back of the tablet looks similar to my Galaxy Tab A7.
What kind or 'brand name' of the adhesive you used??? I always use a T8000 and since it's a liquid, sometimes it really make the screen messed up
suggested it to a friend who bought it. Cant wait to see it also.
Where do you get your refurbished displays?
