What glue is best to use that is safe and won’t fail again? I am in US
What glue is best to use that is safe and won’t fail again? Is 5-min epoxy the best option? Or superglue would be enough? I am in US
Epoxy. It resists heat.
Thanks 🙏 for the info

i have small white lines on the screen on my samsung tablet they can be seen on white background is it dead pixels or is LED's?
Myself and a friend took 5 hours to take the tv apart reglue 14 reflectors and put it back together. In hindsight I should have taken the tv to be professionally repaired as if you don't stick these reflectors back precisely bits of light still shines through which is what's happened in my case
Thanks for making the video
You're welcome!

I need your help! My tv Samsung is white screen. Faded out people but shows black writing. Could this be colour chip? The tv is 7 years old and no warranty left.
Just take off the back cover and glue them back on.
Not quite that simple , though, is it?
Haha, no, not so easy. But on the upside, I was expecting much worse. Take your time, be super careful, keep the screws organized, and you'd be surprised what you can do!
------
Years ago I was given a broken tv, the whole circuit board that powered the LEDs died. The tv seemed dead, but if you held a flashlight up to it, you could see a faint image.
So I bought a new circuit board off of eBay (scavenged from a similar tv). But it didn't work. So I replaced the other two circuit boards as well. Still didn't work. Turns out the eBay seller had not tested the board and sent me a replacement with the exact same problem. So I had to buy a fourth board.
In the end, I probably could have bought a used tv for the same price. I would have given up, but it was my girlfriend's parents that gave me the tv, and I didn't want to admit that I couldn't fix it. It was a can of worms, but I had something to prove 🤣
Picturing undoing the screws then a million pieces flying out when I pull off the back cover
Lol. Its a pain. The other reflectors fall off as you put it back together again.
@@poolsnookered3446So, taking off and gluing the other ones to guarantee they won’t fall sooner maybe?
This makes total sense…. Last steps
Question; what are the chances of the dots increasing?? I have a Samsung UA40HU7000J model
They'll increase. I had 1, have about 7 now
My one spot is ideally placed to add a nice hazy sun or moon to the scenery, especially on old westerns on Grit. And there was a news segment about a mars rover that got an extra sun in its Martian sky!
Lol, exactly! Same here...😄
@@EdGar-qn8pf and I guess you're also in no hurry to fix it.. though past the warranty, too many screws involved and so-forth..
I have a 65" UHD 4K Flat Smart TV MU8000 Series 8 When I turned on the TV I have a crack looking curved line about 4 in in length on the bottom of the screen near the middle with light peeking out the right side with more light on the top than the bottom there is no physical damage to the outside of the TV is there a way to fix that
Ours started with 1, then 3, then more on a 7 year old 75 inch. We bought the 85 inch for $899 with no taxes. We'll consider this if it happens again.
One just appeared on my 75" Samsung, about the size of a ping pong ball. So bummed out.
Me too .. my tv also is hot so maybe the glue melted 😩

What yall do to fix it? Is it worth buying a tv with this issue already?
@@user-lc7zt8sk6i apparently if you call Samsung they will dispatch a technician to your house. I would definitely pay a fee to have all of those LED diffusers popped off and then put back on with brand-new glue. Sure would beat dropping another $1,500 on a new TV when other than the white spot everything works perfectly.
It's a pretty easy (and free) fix though. But still annoying.
Still wondering why they are glued instead of anchored slightly onto the strip. Such a bad design.. or maybe they just want people to buy another TV.
Manufacturing cost - everything's made as cheaply as possible now for maximum profit
the are just designed like this so warranty is only for 12 months - Sony is better
I know one thing.. If I'm pulling that big sucker apart, I will be trying to knock the remaining reflectors out to fix them all while I'm there. Or I'll just add glue to each & every diffuser.
I have electronics experience, but I hate pulling modern gear apart. So fragile you're lucky to not damage it more just disassembling it. I repaired thousands of Atari gaming consoles in 82-83, when life as a tech was GREAT!
I know what you mean
Without a doubt its the refletors come of.mainly from moving the tv.take the back of.i dont think so unless you have given up on this tv.but then why bother you can find a cheap tv
I successfully repaired the actual problem, but damaged the very corner tip of one of the front panels, ruining the display. Was big & expensive enough to have a try. I'm now convinced that the hardest part of flat screen repairs is reassembly. Which I certainly would not bother attempting again, especially on a cheaper one.
I feel like making TVs like this is a such a scam. Especially making it difficult to take apart the tv. Forcing people who don't know what they're doing to buy a new tv.
I can hear the diffusers falling off my tv from time to time. I started off with one white spot, I now have 6. Is so annoying.
Have you fixed it?
My tv 7dots
@@sukraagoldcoveringI have 11 now and they're not all white. A few of them have a blue tint to them. I tried the reboot and software update. No glory. The thing that sucks here is that my TV is 3D and I really don't want to get rid of it. I may try to find a local repair shop. I thought my days of taking electronics apart were over. 😭
What does it sound like when you hear diffusers fall off?
@@daggeo6279 multiple clicking sounds as the diffuser knocks against other diffusers on the way down. Similar to tapping a pen against a plastic surface.
I just got a Samsung smart TV with this issue, and Samsung quoted me at $750-900 for repair plus shipping. Guess I'll try to fix it myself!
Or get a new tv?
@@bernardwadding way cheaper to fix the free one than to buy new
I took the tv apart and none of them have fallen off or lose 😂 now what
I dont know. Whatd you do?
that means one of your covers for the LED light is not lined up correctly. You have to check all them with the power on to see where the light is escaping the cover.
this
Power outage while TV was on. Now big bright light on screen like lightning bolt.
Power surge probably caused some kind of overvoltage on the LEDs which damaged one or more.
I would take the TV apart and eyeball them to be sure.
A Black Dry Erase Marker!!!!
The quick fix!
It's just happened to mine.
You should be able to fix it!
Tried all the steps. Not that simple. Still the best way is to just purchase a new Oled TV. No issues for the next 5yrs. 😊
Yep, sometimes that's the best way
I have 13 white spots, and this morning the top 1/3 of the screen is dark. its a 9 year old tv, dont think its worth it, can get a new 65" (old one is 55") samsung for $399.
Who taking a TV apart guess Time to buy a new TV I have about 25 spots
Useless..Half the video nohing to do with repair proceedure,tools required etc, Next..
I will give the TV away when more spots come about. No more SamSung stuff for me.
I'm with you, this is my second Samsing TV with issues, onto another brand, maybe LG or Sony.
What were the problems with the other one? @@vfr800ification
you speak so low what not even using an amp at full volume could understand ANY of what you are telling.
The person's accent is too strong for USA version of English.
sounds like a personal problem
Sounds like a bad public voice selection to me.@@Yordleton
Love it
Speak up, for God’s sake.
Clean your ears!
@@johnjustice8860My hearing’s perfect, you’re mumbling.
Use headphones, for God's sake
Rather, I sought more cogent, more professional help. It was a good move, too.
@@BillSpaceyou might think your hearing is fine but I have no problem understanding him and my phone is only at half volume with ear buds. Regardless, it’s kinda petty to be so bent about someone offering FREE help. 🙄
What glue is best to use that is safe and won’t fail again after a while? Is 5-min epoxy the best option? Or superglue would be enough? I am in US if you can suggest a brand
don't use superglue because it's not heat stable. any kind of epoxy will be fine - just get the cheapest one
