Thank you for this video. Following it I restored my pixel to a brend new by moving all the parts into a new screen/frame assembly. I feel like such a pro now :D
I need a very urgent help, my pixel fell and now screen is not working, and it is unresponsive to charge, the technician said that the motherboard is little damaged near camera, but, there is no damage on chasi how is it possible, please tell me can I retrieve data?
Hi, can you tell me if I could fix my wifi and cellular band in my pixel 3 xl it has been bent and I bent it back into place without taking it apart, I'm worried the band is kinked
My battery volt drop to 2.4v..i boost the battery again to 3.8v..the phone switch on about 5 minutes and then dead again..voltage drop to 2.4v again..i try two different battery but same problem happen..can i know whats the problem sir?pixel 3xl..
Thanks man..my pixel 3xl suddenly got wifi+Bluetooth problem .wont turn on for some reason..the things is in pixel forum they told that the connection loose on the bottom right side ..i hope so ..now ordering a set of torx screw and some prytools..
Great video. I stupidly used the sim removal tool on the top microphone ! Can't be the only idiot to do this hopefully ... Having teardowned the phone is it likely that this would have reached the microphone ?
@@PBKreviews I couldn't resist prodding it again . In for a penny in for a pound I suppose. So it is indeed a solid metal plate ? Is this a microphone in the traditional sense ? Seems odd
@@darubinstein Hi if you look at this picture I uploaded, its the gold colored square piece. Anywhere you see that on the phone would be a mic. ibb.co/gTzHtZV
do longer antenna cables mean better signal reception? ive seen other phones with very short antenna wires and some with none like iphones and blackberries
Hi, the length of the wires doesn't have an effect on reception. Also I don't think the wires on this phone are used to make any connection regarding signal and so forth. They connect to the charger port flex area giving signal to those components from the main board. However on older HTC units I have seen many wires inside connection many different components. Usually the type of material used overall on the phone would make the most impact on signal. Since the antennas cant receive signal through the aluminum frames on phones, you will notice most manufactures will use some plastic lines on top or bottom of the frame of their phones to allow that to act as a receiver for signal.
When dealing with RF, shorter cable runs are actually better for receive sensitivity because those cables have a certain amount of attenuation that increases the longer the cable run goes. The biggest gains you'll get is from the antenna design at the ends of the cables. Fractal designs tend to have better robustness to device orientation.
Might be a defective touch digitizer on the screen or a faulty chip on the board. You would need to test a new screen assembly and see if the touch works if not then it might be an issue on the board.
@@PBKreviews I was replacing a faulty board in my phone. So the screen was still good on my phone, and I verified the board worked with the broken screen in the donor phone as well.
@@surkhapatkar1079 Well there is the LCD screen assembly, midframe, back panel, finger print sensor, battery, wireless charging flex, loud speaker assembly, ear speaker, rear facing camera, vibrator motor, charger port flex, front facing cameras, main board, power vol button flex/microphone flex and sensor flex. Not sure what else I might be missing, but you can check amzn.to/2H1Wx1a to see if there is anything I did not mention possibly.
Lol plastic spudgers arnt the easiest to use and most of the time the metal tools get the job done the best. As long as the battery is disconnected, there really is no risk. If your not sitting on a static prone carpet with static all around you, no issues. We've been using metal tools since 2004 on phones and have repaired and worked on thousands of phones, and not once did we ever short or damage a phone because we were using metal tools. The risk is so small not even worth worrying about. With the battery connected though, its a different story and you can easily short it. :)
not sure where you can find a mainboard for it, you would need to check on ebay. Your best bet would be to find a damaged phone that has a working board and get it like that.

@@PBKreviewsplease help me on this
@@PBKreviews - Man, it's painful to watch removing the back on these older video. You've come a long way. ;D
So unlike the Pixel 2XL which requires the screen to be removed, this one seems to be less prone to cracking since the back is what is removed.
Great vid 👍 underrated channel
Thank you, appreciate it :)
My 3XL wont turn on. I replaced the battery and still nothing, how can i diagbose and repair from here? Can i retrieve the data from the chip?

Could I use this tutorial for my speaker on my Pixel 3 as well? Is it a very similar teardown, just the size is different?
Should be somewhat similar

No problem, hope it works!
My pixel3xl microphone not working in speakerphone or video call. Which mic is faulty. ? What is the function top right corner mic ?
It's probably the top right microphone or can also be an issue with the headphone jack, thinking a headphone is plugged in when its not.

Hi, its ok your not the only one whose done it haha, the mic is a gold colored metal small square. It doesnt break that easily so you should be fine.
@@PBKreviews thanks for getting back to me on this ! So far so good anyway
@@darubinstein no problem

If you’re gonna call your video a disassembly tear down, how about actually removing every part on the phone?
Woooo new phone 😀
Does this phone have any sort of cooling system?
Just some graphite film, copper tape and thermal pad.
can i repair motherboard of my pixel 3 xl?
thx
You're welcome
everything works except the touch screen, it doesn't recognize touch. I have reset all the ribbon cables multiple times.
Might be a defective touch digitizer on the screen or a faulty chip on the board. You would need to test a new screen assembly and see if the touch works if not then it might be an issue on the board.
@@PBKreviews I was replacing a faulty board in my phone. So the screen was still good on my phone, and I verified the board worked with the broken screen in the donor phone as well.
How would you replace the power buttons?
You would need to take the phone apart, and remove the battery to gain access to the metal brackets which are holding them in place.
Can you give me the list of spare parts present in pixel 3xl
Hi what do you mean? you want to know what parts are replaceable like battery, screen, etc?
No .I want to assemble pixel 3 xl with their parts
@@surkhapatkar1079 Well there is the LCD screen assembly, midframe, back panel, finger print sensor, battery, wireless charging flex, loud speaker assembly, ear speaker, rear facing camera, vibrator motor, charger port flex, front facing cameras, main board, power vol button flex/microphone flex and sensor flex.

I guess this guy doesn't believe in using plastic spudgers when dealing with onboard components. Metal blade all the things!

Where can I get the motherboard

HTC design style，too many contactors
Sir help me please
