Nice, I've been repairing devices for about 8 yrs now and I have done this repair on this exact tablet twice without removing the screen. I did exactly what you got done in the back to remove the plastic housing covering the port. Then there is a thin piece of metal with the two screws. If you use a Dremel tool you can get rid of the screws to get the charge port board out. Then solder up a new port and glue down at the bottom when done. I have video too bad can't attach to this comment. I need to say nice work! It does take a lot of skill to remove this screen without damaging it 💯
Thanks for this video, I just fixed my son's tablet using this procedure. This post is a little bit long, but it's reminders to myself as much as info for anyone taking this on. Care must be taken down around the home button, the capacitive back and menu button ribbons can stick to the back of the screen as you try and lift it out. A missing part of the process is the entire subframe must also be unscrewed from the screen side which allows you to push the frame from the inside towards the screen side, away from the bracket you see from the battery side (the one you cut away). Without having to undo every last part of the board, you can still push it out enough down near the charge port so that you can push the port across and out - it is tight but it does come out, this bit saves a lot more disassembly. After loosely reassembling for bench testing charging was now consistent but really slow. The power button didn't work unless I pressed the back in a bit (pushes in a back removed sensor). When I did get the tablet going it went to 'slow charge'. I clipped in the back properly, you need to press all around the place and you feel all these little clicks. After that, slow charge went away and it started picking up charge percentage points quickly. I had taken the back off previously trying to see if I could fix the charge port, and after that I only got slow charge, this is probably because it was never clipped back together properly?? Anyway, it was only after charging stopped completely that I gained the courage to take this on. Not that hard to get right really, just don't get tempted to rush at any point.
I just had to do this job again, same tablet. This time after installing the new board the tablet wouldn't turn on. I removed it and reinstalled it a couple of times, re-seating everything, nothing. The last resort was to grab the old board and put it back in. As I picked it up, the little black component on the back of the board just behind the charge port came off on my finger, it must have been loose from a bad solder or something. I placed a 425C iron on top of it and it seemed to solder straight back into place. Then I re-assembled the unit and it actually worked this time. Not only that, but the 'loose' charge port issue was gone. So, from a DOA replacement charge board and non-working tablet to back to normal operation. So... something else to watch out for :/ but a win in the end :).
I've worked on several Galaxy Tablets and it's a pain in the ass to remove the glass because the adhesive used on these is strong. Luckily most of the ones I work on already had cracked screens. I find that it's much easier to remove the glass when you stick multiple guitar picks around the areas you've lifted, to prevent the glass from sticking back down. That metal tool you stuck between the frame and the glass is also a pain in the ass to use. It's sharp on the edges and will damage a devices frame and or remove the paint from the back of the digitizer. I threw mine away before it ever had a chance to do that. I've also found that when heating up a device via a hot air gun / blow dryer, it cools down quickly. One method that I have found to keep a device nice and hot / warm, is to put it out in the sun (face down to protect LCD) for about 10-15 min. It will stay hot enough, long enough for you to work on it, because the entire device is warm which takes longer to cool down than warming just the glass.
If cowboy had done this a hundred times he wouldn't have been surprised what it took to replace the charging port. Wants profit but not willing to take any risk. This is America dude!
For keeping the device hot buy an heating mat and cover the device with cardboard box the size of the device so the frame will stay hot longer, i use a bunch of guitar pick too it is the best if you don't want to pass multiple time around !!
Great video, I used guitar pics instead of the plastic card 👍🏻 worked really well. Thanks for the video gave me a lot more confidence when dealing with this s2. Works great now
Yep, I've completely destroyed the lcd... the amount and strength of glue they used is ridiculous. Oh well, it was dead anyway. Thank you for the detailed video, your method works and most importantly without specialised tools, I just needed to be more careful
Great video. I just replaced the battery in my S2 by removing the back. Why do some videos show technicians taking off the front of the Tab S2 to replace a battery? Anyhow, now the power button on my device isn't working well. I have to press hard to make it work. Obviously, I must have done something wrong.
Have you tried using a heat lamp? By changing the distance you can control the temperature. Using foil to protect the screen while heating. Just a suggestion.
Many thanks, just about to try this on my friends tablet. Much the same scenario, it doesn't work so nothing to lose. Let's hope! Mark, Margate Kent GB
It's just double sided adhesive tape. If you don't have that, use Krazy Glue Fix All Adhesive. It's strong enough to seal the glass on a device, but weak enough to remove the glass if needed.
Hi do you have a schematic for this phone I have one of these and it does not turn on and there is no short so im guessing it is the power ic but I cant find the chip on the board so I need a schematic if anyone has one that would really help
Actual pro tip, 99% alcohol will help immensely when removing screens like this. and i would NEVER use that iseasamo thing for that, razor and picks only.
Yep samsung is turning into apple and its fucks me off.Got exact same junk on my desk..it charges when pressure is applied so will have to do it overnight..no way am doing this lol

sometimes it also helps to do a bit of IPA in the gap to dissolve the glue
Have you tried using a heat lamp? By changing the distance you can control the temperature. Using foil to protect the screen while heating. Just a suggestion.
Thank you for the video. Hope it will help to fix my tablet. Are charging boards of the T813 same as the charging boards of the T810/T815?
Thank you it worked just like you said Patience!
Many thanks, just about to try this on my friends tablet. Much the same scenario, it doesn't work so nothing to lose. Let's hope! Mark, Margate Kent GB
Great job! Thanks for sharing this!
Do I have to apply some sort of glue for the front cover to put it back together?
yes double sided tape or some other screen glue
I suggest TESA double side tape the red one, glue is not a good idea.
awesome work thanks...i've the same tablet it doesnt charge even if you charge it for whole night...i think it's the charging port problem.
I just brake all the plastic cover off on the charging port then put in a new one . Didn’t have to take off the screen. Thanks god
Awesome video!! Subscribed!!
What do you do about the damaged adhesive from the opening process?
you buy TESA double side tape the red one.
Hocam tamir ederken hic ekran krdinmi
You can also buy only the charging port for those who know soldering, the charging port is $0.30 and the charging board is $15 !!
Thanks for the video. Couldn't you just do a in frame charge port removal with low melt solder with rework station or not possible?
nice help full video
what tape is used to glue it back together ?
It's just double sided adhesive tape. If you don't have that, use Krazy Glue Fix All Adhesive. It's strong enough to seal the glass on a device, but weak enough to remove the glass if needed.
@@ubreakitirepairit3569 TESA double side tape the red one, Krazy glue is not a good idea if you have to remove the screen later.
@@deadbluesky Krazy Glue Fix All Adhesive. Not the regular Krazy Glue. The adhesive version is removable.
@@ubreakitirepairit3569 ohh ok i didn't know that Krazy glue made less Krazy glue... I use B-7000 glue this is already for mobile device.
how did you remove the back cover?
is there a simple way to test the charging board before actually having to remove the screen?
Is the display of the T813 same as the display of the T810/T815?
yes T810/T813/T815 are the same screen
I just drilled out the screws and cut all that plastic back. I hate removing samsungs screens that have the buttons on both sides of the home button.
Hi do you have a schematic for this phone I have one of these and it does not turn on and there is no short so im guessing it is the power ic but I cant find the chip on the board so I need a schematic if anyone has one that would really help

My screen is cracked and I can find one. Does anyone know where to find one? Thanks
Please ,,i have scematic t819y

Would a Screen heating station like the Unionrepair CPB one help to remove these screens ?
Hand controlled heat using a hot air gun is the best and fastest way to do it with precision to areas that you want to heat.
Put the device out in the sun for 10-15 min face down (2 protect LCD). It will stay hot long enough to remove the screen.
Yep samsung is turning into apple and its fucks me off.Got exact same junk on my desk..it charges when pressure is applied so will have to do it overnight..no way am doing this lol
