This is the best HTC 10 teardown video. Thank you. I managed to change my battery without breaking anything. The most valuable info was the location of the hidden ribbons underneath the battery. It was stuck hard on the adhesive.
I had to do one of these last week. You make it look so much easier than it was for me! Absolutely excellent videos! So glad that you can take time for this from your fulltime job as launch announcer at NASA..... Kidding, I Can't help myself sometimes. Your tutorials are a very credible value to the Tech industry. Thank you.
TIPS that would have helped me, hope they help someone: - The LCD behind the screen is super fragile. - Do not insert any tool on the left or right sides of the screen more than 2mm (VERY IMPORTANT). Top and bottom you can insert nearly all the way to the edge of the LCD panel, but sides do not insert more than 2mm. - I suggest setting your heat gun to 100 deg celcius and heat the edges of the sceen until uncomfortable to touch, thats enough to soften the glue. - I was very careful but STILL broke my first screen LCD (was repairing 2 phones). On the second phone, I LEFT THE PHONE ON so I could see exactly when I was using too much force and the LCD was starting to flex/distort. This saved my second phone screen and may help you too. If you're doing this I would strongly caution against going above 100c as you may damage the LCD if it's running that hot for long. p.s. holy hell this phone screen is fragile, you weren't joking that you said "basically if you're opening this phone [..] expect to replace the screen as well"
dude, this looks like a prototype that got into market due to cash flow issues, wich it probably is. Compare this to a Iphone or S6, where the IC is around the battery and almost no ribbons. This is like, wow.. crap. And I own one of these. To bad the vibrator is loose and sound like shit sometimes.
Mabirc actually more repairable then othen, so many replaceable parts the charging port, look at v10 charging port damaged you need new phone, in HTC 10 proximity sensor removable......sim trays.... keep your all your complains for HTC U Ultra, a bad phone
I just replaced my battery thanks to you Jerry! Some Tips for people doing this would be: -Take a look at the front of the screen, the black parts are where you can put the cards through, the middle part which you actually see from is where the card shouldn't go at all. -You can see on the sides of the screen the black line is very thin, this is where people mess up. You can not push your card in past this point! -I feel like this looks worse than it is, Once the screen is off, just disconnecting the connectors and stuff isn't that bad. I did mess up once by putting the battery ontop of the charging cable on the top right. Do a once over after pushing the battery down. -Also the tool kits they give you with Batteries are not good enough, I used a box cutter but you need something good enough to get the small sections -I had a heat gun that I was originally trying to use at a lower setting and it was a pain to get that screen off. I changed the setting to 9 which I imagine is 90 degrees idk but once I did that it worked soo much better -FYI I have a screen protector on this and I didn't need to take it off there was no damage to it at all. All in all, it's not bad but I'm not sure I would do it again. A local cell phone repair place quoted me $90 to replace it. Now that I bought the battery and will have to buy the screen too I'm going to be paying like $60. I will say this isn't as bad as I thought it was.
I want to thank you for this video, my HTC 10 was a great phone but has the now pretty well known battery issue, it's been sat in the draw for the last 6 months, decided to by a new battery and have a go at replacing it, no stranger to working with tools as I own a garage but car are a bit different and a lot bigger, I've never opened up a phone before let along repair one so a totally new experience for me, I've managed to do it without damaging the screen and everything works a treat
Cool Kid be extremely careful around the edge of the screen when trying to separate the glue, the actual screen it's self is also glued together around it's edge so your song not to penetrate that, once the screen is out the rest is pretty easy, just very delicate, I don't think I spent enough time heating the glue up when putting the screen back in as its lifted in places but the phone is fully functional, if you don't heat the glue the screen won't stick back in and could fall out when using
+Matheus Caixista The S7 scored a 3 out of 10 repairability score on iFixit. It may look "beautiful" but there's a good chance you'll break the "beautiful" screen trying to repair it. Certainly we don't want to throw stones at the HTC 10, when the Galaxy S7 is living in a glass house.
I was thinking about replacing the battery in my HTC10. So I thought I'd see if any kind sole has put a video on UA-cam showing how its done. This tutorial video is literally the best on the planet. However it's so good that it's revealed to me that it simply isn't worth it due to the extreme level of intricacy and detail you need to be and constantly stay aware of whilst undertaking such a task, otherwise youwill endup going wrong somewhere along the way and end up scrapping the phone. Thanks to this video I think the main message is, that if you might not feel up to it, it's simply a much better idea and easier to pay the money and just buy a new phone. So 10 out of 10 for this tutorial video. Jerry you are a true and talented engineer and I only wish I had the same skill and competence as you. All the best. Miles.
I know it's an old video but thanks! My first time taking a phone apart and I've managed to replace the battery and screen (while keeping the old one functional). Only issue is that I buggered up the power button while prying, but that's an easy fix, just waiting on the cable. Even though the comments say it's a nightmare, you made it really easy.
Excellent video, was able to replace a faulty battery after watching. Hoping I never have to go back into this phone again after that! Thanks very much for making it.
dude you've got the best voice a man could ever have,maybe I'm not the "biggest" fan of taking phones apart but watching your videos makes me feel good,any way do you have a university degree or you have learend these stuff by yourself?
for the reassembly, how did you re-adhere the screen to the body? Did you use glue or some sort of tape? If you did, could you provide me with a link to the product? Thanks Jerry!
Thanks for the video...after watching this I easily replaced my battery. It really was not that hard, and not much worse that many other phones. One thing....for other readers...or for you JerryRigEveryting, if you are replacing the battery only, there is no reason to remove the charging port or disconnect the active buttons. Just leave them alone!
Great video. Allowed me to successfully change battery. Only one thing I could not see on the video was how much heat to apply to the front glass - I applied too much gave my LCD that is stuck onto the glass a bit of a shrink. So need lots of heat not to break the glass but not too much - my heat gun was set at 200!!
I FUCKING LOVE YOU. I gave my phone to a shop to get battery replaced. They managed to fuck it up even more. After about a week I finally decided to do it myself. AND I REPAIRED IT!
Fantastic tutorial, I've already replaced a HTC10 screen and am going back in to do the battery and replace another screen on a different HTC 10. Ive picked up a couple of these phones cheap on eBay and don't mind going in to fix them myself. The great thing about this overview apposed to others I've watched. Is this gives you the straightforward tear down with good visuals right down to the SD/Sim sockets.
Thanks a ton for your great video!. I managed to repair my htc 10, lcd and battety included. Screen looks and works perfectly and battery life is much, much longer😁. Thanks to you and your effort for doing this amazing guides. Dont loose that curiosity. It makes you to do anything possible. Thanks again!...and sorry for my bad english. Send from my great htc 10.
Thany you for this guide! I DIYed my HTC 10 just now to replace the battery! I also added hot glue to the inside so the phone did not loose its stickyness on the tape and backside of the screen!
Jerry, imo the whole bit (of re-attaching those several parts) from 6:47 on is cut into too short clips for your viewer to b able to follow what it is you are doing.. i think you should as a rule of thumb stick with giving each separate shot a minimum length of about 2.5 ~ 3 seconds if it is about components
The HTC 10 Looks sleek and great outside, though it's pretty messy inside. Anyone who can even tear one down is really patient, let alone one who can also assemble one in working order.
What does the white wire do!? I pulled the housing for that from the motherboard when taking it off, is it even worth continuing to go ahead with the battery swap at this point? Thanks.
Jerry, my wife got her htc 10 wet and now boot loops. I bought all the tools you used in this video. Any suggestions as to what I should be looking for while conducting the surgery?
Dang i went to deep in the top right corner. I even separated the backlight layer from the lcd. Still works perfectly except for the top right corner which is totally black. Waiting for my new screen module now for my htc with a fresh battery in it. Great video.
I bought the screen that you linked to. It did not come with the glue, now I have a working phone (took about 2 hours), but the screen is loose. Any suggestions?
Thanks to you I just successfully changed my phones battery :-) Its a shame even most of the "unofficial" maintainer for custom roms dropped this phone for any else... Even I am thinking about another brand after this bad "oreo-update-battery-life". Lets see how the new battery will keep up against the old.... (30-40%, sometimes even nearly 50% after about 2h music listening, mostly over Bluetooth with mostly screen off...) Thanks again! Even there are a few more videos for the htc 10 out there, you were the only I found commenting about anything. And props for your other videos! Sometimes it needs a broken phone for seeing really nice tech videos ;-) One more thing: My adhesives for the screen were not good anymore after assembling everything. I have now used some double-sided-tape with ~0,5mm thickness I had lying around. Any experience with other glue? B- or T-7000? "Random" double-sided tape from ebay (273210775397) or amazon? Already thought about the B- or T-7000 since it should dry out not completely hard, but I don't know about its viscosity before. The 2mm double-sided tape looks better, but seems to be generic china stuff sold with different "brands" ...
That was impressive how you did that without damaging the device lol. I remember I fixed an M7 once, it was very difficult but I did it! Thanks for this video though! If I ever need to open an HTC 10 I'll come here for guidance. :p
Awesome Teardown Jerry!!! Help me massively to replace the battery. Have ended with not being able to connect to a mobile connection. Anyone got any ideas? I've gone over everything a dozen times but can't work it out.
Hi all, i want to replace just the charging dock. Do I have to do every step in the video until the charging port, or are there some steps i can skip ? (I don't need to change the screen nor the battery so I thought maybe there are some cables and/or elements that i can just leave as they are ?)
+JerryRigEverything I have recently subscribed to your channel. I love your channel. You show all aspects of smartphones being teardowns, drop tests, durability tests, etc. I love it! I'm glad I subscribed and I love your voice man. It makes watching your videos so fun and you definitely have the voice for narrating! I love the style of your videos as well!
If I'm replacing the battery, and my screen is cracked, should I definitely replace the screen while it's opened? I am moderately experienced with phone repair. My screen has been cracked but totally functional for a long time. I've got my replacement battery now but no screen. Should I get screen or is it avoidable? Moderately experienced. Thanks!
hello jerry, did you use any glue to reseal the screen??? i need to change my back casing.... JerryRigEverything please get back to me as soon as possible... thanks besides i really like and thank you for being so detailed in the videos, it surely help since am an HTC fan and these things do come handy.. thanks buddy
Can the heat itself damage the screen in any way? I mean today I took back my HTC 10 from HTC repair center, they changed the whole back cover due to paint defect, I noticed after a meticulous inspection that my screen has 3 small faint smudges that won't appear but on plain white background, I don't know if it's a minor defect I never noticed before or when they opened the phone to change the cover they did heat to much the screen (or it got dirty somehow)?
Followed these steps as closely as possible. Wasn't too bad, got the screen off fine, thought I got everything put back together. However, the right button no longer lights up, screen won't come on (not shattered or anything), and makes an odd almost clicking sound when turned on. I'm sure I messed something up on it, but the actual process wasn't as bad as the video made it seem.
Where can i find a replacement charging port..? My phone suddenly went dead and has never been dropped or submerged. When i plug it in nothing happens, no lights. Cant even boot into bootloader. Sprint repair said there was a little corrosion around the charging port. I would like to try replacing the charging port and battery.
hey jerry, i need to change my screen which is the white model one, but i am.only getting a black one as replacement, can i change the fingerprint scanner too? or i must swap the same old one due to security reason of using the fingerprint scanner. thanks
Hey im not a pro with phones but what are those little cables they taped on the motherboard?? it kinda looks cheap... and dangerous... like the glue from the tape could get weaker and maybe after some drops they wont hold those cables anymore and it will cause a problem if they disconect or something so you will have to do this whole opening up your phone thing to fix it... is that true or not?
Just swapped the battery, speakers, switches, and screen....and the screen is showing static then distorted versions of the decrypt screen. When I try and enter digits the screen will move and numbers will change size. Tried unplugging and reconnecting the screen cable and now it's all black. Doesn't seem like the ribbon cable goes in far enough, but it's straight so I'm stuck.
I agree that i looks messy but seeing how everything is on a separate board and very modular, i think it was a deliberate design choice. If somehow they make it (a lot) easier to open and decide not to solder the vibrator motor to the motherboard, it might be easier to repair for the average joe because they can order one of those boards and swap it out.
HI Jerry . i Spilled a glass of water on my HTC 10. powered it off immediately. i ve been resting it in my camera dry box with a silica unit since last night. around14 hours now. how water resistant is the HTC 10? safe to power it on?
Hi Jerry, would you recommend this phone for me if HTC is not available in my country? I know that I wouldn't get the after sales service if anything bad happens but judging the build quality of Htc phones, they seem to be pretty well built. And I'm thinking of getting this phone. The only gripe that I have on this phone is the problem of getting it repaired once it breaks or something.
Well, here I am again on screen number 3. In December I needed to replace my badly degraded battery. First original grade A LCD was destroyed removing it. No physical damage, my playing card just severed a ribbon cable between the LCD and glass. Battery replacement and LCD replacement was successful. This LCD went faulty after 4 weeks. Phantom touches, etc. Replaced this LCD. The new LCD was perfectly fine with touch, but had a blue tint where the light was meant to be white. Typing speed was decreased by half, as the digitizer was far less responsive. Think old school capacitive. Now this past week with the heat in the midwest the digitizer has gotten less and less responsive. Woke up this morning and touch no longer works, period. Lesson learned, buy an OEM LCD. In my case I bought a used genuine HTC OEM LCD from a T-Mobile HTC 10 with some slight burn-in issues. Grade A condition screens are around $55 which I am unwilling to pay on a phone this age. Guess I'll be taking it apart for a 4th time when that arrives. Does this make me a sadist?
This is the best HTC 10 teardown video. Thank you. I managed to change my battery without breaking anything. The most valuable info was the location of the hidden ribbons underneath the battery. It was stuck hard on the adhesive.
HTC - Hardest Teardown Company
XD
Now I know why they charge so much for their phones! Maybe in 2020 they wont exist anymore.
@@Dr23rippa You called it.
Have used this video many times to replace the screen, and today finally replaced the battery and charging port. Thanks so much!
I had to do one of these last week. You make it look so much easier than it was for me! Absolutely excellent videos! So glad that you can take time for this from your fulltime job as launch announcer at NASA..... Kidding, I Can't help myself sometimes. Your tutorials are a very credible value to the Tech industry. Thank you.
Mr. RigEverything, I was able to repair my HTC10 without spending hundreds! All thanks to you! Keep on keepin' on man.
And here I am again in 2020.. I'm finally going to attempt a repair on one of these. Wish me luck Zach.
Just following up on this, repair went very well. Phone is finally functional again!
@@raymaster972 thanks for the follow up!
TIPS that would have helped me, hope they help someone:
- The LCD behind the screen is super fragile.
- Do not insert any tool on the left or right sides of the screen more than 2mm (VERY IMPORTANT). Top and bottom you can insert nearly all the way to the edge of the LCD panel, but sides do not insert more than 2mm.
- I suggest setting your heat gun to 100 deg celcius and heat the edges of the sceen until uncomfortable to touch, thats enough to soften the glue.
- I was very careful but STILL broke my first screen LCD (was repairing 2 phones). On the second phone, I LEFT THE PHONE ON so I could see exactly when I was using too much force and the LCD was starting to flex/distort. This saved my second phone screen and may help you too. If you're doing this I would strongly caution against going above 100c as you may damage the LCD if it's running that hot for long.
p.s. holy hell this phone screen is fragile, you weren't joking that you said "basically if you're opening this phone [..] expect to replace the screen as well"
Same here. I just happened to rip a tiny cable too above the soft buttons.
I destroyed the LCD... If I would have read this.... Before...
Can a suction cup help to create a gap for the cards? I just received my battery so i'm gonna try to change it later this week.
@@jesselioce Lol I wish I had thought of reading comments in addition to just watching the video. I attempted first battery replacement last night.
I broke two LCD....lol
It's a bit of a mess but what a piece of engineering work.
I got the feeling that the engineers were out of thier league and tried their best.
Yeah, but what work to make this unrepairable.
dude, this looks like a prototype that got into market due to cash flow issues, wich it probably is.
Compare this to a Iphone or S6, where the IC is around the battery and almost no ribbons. This is like, wow.. crap.
And I own one of these. To bad the vibrator is loose and sound like shit sometimes.
Mabirc actually more repairable then othen, so many replaceable parts the charging port, look at v10 charging port damaged you need new phone, in HTC 10 proximity sensor removable......sim trays.... keep your all your complains for HTC U Ultra, a bad phone
sorry v20 lg
I just replaced my battery thanks to you Jerry! Some Tips for people doing this would be:
-Take a look at the front of the screen, the black parts are where you can put the cards through, the middle part which you actually see from is where the card shouldn't go at all.
-You can see on the sides of the screen the black line is very thin, this is where people mess up. You can not push your card in past this point!
-I feel like this looks worse than it is, Once the screen is off, just disconnecting the connectors and stuff isn't that bad. I did mess up once by putting the battery ontop of the charging cable on the top right. Do a once over after pushing the battery down.
-Also the tool kits they give you with Batteries are not good enough, I used a box cutter but you need something good enough to get the small sections
-I had a heat gun that I was originally trying to use at a lower setting and it was a pain to get that screen off. I changed the setting to 9 which I imagine is 90 degrees idk but once I did that it worked soo much better
-FYI I have a screen protector on this and I didn't need to take it off there was no damage to it at all.
All in all, it's not bad but I'm not sure I would do it again. A local cell phone repair place quoted me $90 to replace it. Now that I bought the battery and will have to buy the screen too I'm going to be paying like $60. I will say this isn't as bad as I thought it was.

Cool Kid be extremely careful around the edge of the screen when trying to separate the glue, the actual screen it's self is also glued together around it's edge so your song not to penetrate that, once the screen is out the rest is pretty easy, just very delicate, I don't think I spent enough time heating the glue up when putting the screen back in as its lifted in places but the phone is fully functional, if you don't heat the glue the screen won't stick back in and could fall out when using
Cool Kid awesome mate, Yh this phone is a bit of a nightmare
My HTC 10...beautiful on the outside, but ugly on the inside...just like a lot of people.
+Syon so deep... yet so true.
+Matheus Caixista The S7 scored a 3 out of 10 repairability score on iFixit. It may look "beautiful" but there's a good chance you'll break the "beautiful" screen trying to repair it. Certainly we don't want to throw stones at the HTC 10, when the Galaxy S7 is living in a glass house.
well you forgot that the S7 and the S7 edge requires to remove the screen in order the replace the usb port.
This is the prettiest thing I've seen in a while... I'm kinda glad mine broke just to see it up close.
After watching you for awhile I started to feel like I could actually repair something myself! Until I watched this video o_0
+Zach Straley Lol, this is not a good phone to start with.
+TheBuggerbutt08 start with M9, as I did, it's really challenging
Or just start with a ipad 1 as I did that has less value.....
The harder the phone the better the Technician..
I just replaced the screen on this phone and it works fine again. It's my first screen replacement so far. Im so happy right now ☺☺☺
Thanks man! - I did it, I didn't break the screen, swapped battery. All good! - Your video had all the tricks
replace the battery they said...
how difficult would it be...
it's going to be easy they said..
am ready to repair my freaking car after watching this
Yep. I was asking myself, 'would I rather just do a gearbox rebuild on my car ?'.

Anyone else watching this on an HTC 10?
me
Me
me too. 😄
me and i never wana reach the point tgat i have to open it for repairs
im watching it on a htc evo 3d (fucked up my m8 trying to replace the screen)

The far the best video I seen on phone repair . no annoying music, where can I get the tweezers you use. Cheers from Ireland
Can the adhesive be reused? Or should I get a new adhesive to reinstall the screen? Please respond
Thanks a ton for your great video!. I managed to repair my htc 10, lcd and battety included. Screen looks and works perfectly and battery life is much, much longer😁. Thanks to you and your effort for doing this amazing guides. Dont loose that curiosity. It makes you to do anything possible.
Thanks again!...and sorry for my bad english. Send from my great htc 10.
Wow. Nice piece of technology. Thanks for showing.
I just bought one HTC 10 with replaced battery by HTC.
I hope I won't be dissapointed.
It's too complicated to deal with, nice work buddy !
there are no bgm in this video yet it is a pleasure to watch .. good work jerry , keep it up
Thumbs up to HTC for making the phone impressively modular for repairs.
What's the best way to re-adhere the screen? The left side of mine is constantly raising up slightly
Having to repair something yourself in this phone gets scarier the further you go in :O
My daughters is not charging, it did get wet, where should I start? Thanks great teardown
Jerry you are very positive person you brighten my day. God bless you
Thany you for this guide! I DIYed my HTC 10 just now to replace the battery! I also added hot glue to the inside so the phone did not loose its stickyness on the tape and backside of the screen!
how many devices did he practice with?
Jerry, imo the whole bit (of re-attaching those several parts) from 6:47 on is cut into too short clips for your viewer to b able to follow what it is you are doing.. i think you should as a rule of thumb stick with giving each separate shot a minimum length of about 2.5 ~ 3 seconds if it is about components
The HTC 10
Looks sleek and great outside, though it's pretty messy inside.
Anyone who can even tear one down is really patient, let alone one who can also assemble one in working order.
HTC 10 B2PS6100 and 2ps6200 is the same battery?
Is it necessary to have a heat gun, or could I substitute it for a hair dryer?
Hi, i'm wondering the same. Did you find an answer ?
Good job Jerry, as always. My go to guy for fixing phones I will never own lol
What does the white wire do!? I pulled the housing for that from the motherboard when taking it off, is it even worth continuing to go ahead with the battery swap at this point? Thanks.
Jerry, my wife got her htc 10 wet and now boot loops. I bought all the tools you used in this video. Any suggestions as to what I should be looking for while conducting the surgery?
Just finished replacing the battery, awesome video and thanks to you it worked perfect, thanks again!!
Dang i went to deep in the top right corner. I even separated the backlight layer from the lcd. Still works perfectly except for the top right corner which is totally black. Waiting for my new screen module now for my htc with a fresh battery in it. Great video.
hey jerry if im replacing the back chassy only will i be able to use the old screen and its old glue ??
I bought the screen that you linked to. It did not come with the glue, now I have a working phone (took about 2 hours), but the screen is loose. Any suggestions?
Thanks to you I just successfully changed my phones battery :-) Its a shame even most of the "unofficial" maintainer for custom roms dropped this phone for any else... Even I am thinking about another brand after this bad "oreo-update-battery-life". Lets see how the new battery will keep up against the old.... (30-40%, sometimes even nearly 50% after about 2h music listening, mostly over Bluetooth with mostly screen off...)
Thanks again! Even there are a few more videos for the htc 10 out there, you were the only I found commenting about anything.
And props for your other videos! Sometimes it needs a broken phone for seeing really nice tech videos ;-)
One more thing:
My adhesives for the screen were not good anymore after assembling everything. I have now used some double-sided-tape with ~0,5mm thickness I had lying around.
Any experience with other glue? B- or T-7000? "Random" double-sided tape from ebay (273210775397) or amazon?
Already thought about the B- or T-7000 since it should dry out not completely hard, but I don't know about its viscosity before.
The 2mm double-sided tape looks better, but seems to be generic china stuff sold with different "brands" ...
Does the screen replacement can be caused to remove water and dust protection?
Jerry ur an amazing guy who can make anyone laugh n ur damn talented
+truly fandamtastic Thank you!
That was impressive how you did that without damaging the device lol. I remember I fixed an M7 once, it was very difficult but I did it! Thanks for this video though! If I ever need to open an HTC 10 I'll come here for guidance. :p
your dialog kills me in this. haha it definitely looks like a tangled web of a mess thanks for keeping up the good work
Hey Jerry, what do you recommend for the adhesive to reassemble the screen?
Do you happen to know how much of this is assembled by machines and how much is hand made? Seems so intricate.
Awesome Teardown Jerry!!! Help me massively to replace the battery. Have ended with not being able to connect to a mobile connection. Anyone got any ideas? I've gone over everything a dozen times but can't work it out.
Can i Chance the USB Port without the Buttons or do i have to change the complete connection?
Hi Eric, I have the same question. Did you find an answer ?
Hi all, i want to replace just the charging dock.
Do I have to do every step in the video until the charging port, or are there some steps i can skip ?
(I don't need to change the screen nor the battery so I thought maybe there are some cables and/or elements that i can just leave as they are ?)
can you do the ulefone power or the ulefone future teardown or durability test
+JerryRigEverything I have recently subscribed to your channel. I love your channel. You show all aspects of smartphones being teardowns, drop tests, durability tests, etc. I love it! I'm glad I subscribed and I love your voice man. It makes watching your videos so fun and you definitely have the voice for narrating! I love the style of your videos as well!
Dear Jerry, when i get the battery symbol with a red exclamation mark has it something to do with a faulty battery or the charging port connectors?
As tank as the HTC 10 is built, it looks like a nightmare to repair.
If I'm replacing the battery, and my screen is cracked, should I definitely replace the screen while it's opened? I am moderately experienced with phone repair. My screen has been cracked but totally functional for a long time. I've got my replacement battery now but no screen. Should I get screen or is it avoidable? Moderately experienced. Thanks!
hey jerry how safe is it to use a guitar pick?
this is beautiful to watch. can't wait to start learning repairs
Tried my first battery replacement with this phone. Sure enough, messed up the screen. Guess I should get ahold of some adhesive as well.
Any idea where the GPS and NFC is located at? Both are not working at mine
fantastic just like the rest of your videos I'm so excited that you're doing the repair stuff
hello jerry, did you use any glue to reseal the screen???
i need to change my back casing....
JerryRigEverything please get back to me as soon as possible...
thanks
besides i really like and thank you for being so detailed in the videos, it surely help since am an HTC fan and these things do come handy..
thanks buddy
this phone is a mess inside
Just a crappy chinese phone.
Pirat Carribean i tend to disagree .. even though they fucked up with the m9 , the 10 is very good smartphone .
+Marius Gardelli I agree, but the price is just too high.
yeah .. they fucked up there
+Pirat Carribean Yooo, it's Taiwanese.
any comments on the structural integrity? or why is it so strong?
I have one of this, but cameras don't function anymore is it possible to replace those ?
What are you using to heat up the edges of the phone?
Jerry just a question, would you recommend change the battery of the HTC 10 because I'm having about 2 and half hours of SOT I'm kind of desperate
Can the heat itself damage the screen in any way? I mean today I took back my HTC 10 from HTC repair center, they changed the whole back cover due to paint defect, I noticed after a meticulous inspection that my screen has 3 small faint smudges that won't appear but on plain white background, I don't know if it's a minor defect I never noticed before or when they opened the phone to change the cover they did heat to much the screen (or it got dirty somehow)?
Followed these steps as closely as possible. Wasn't too bad, got the screen off fine, thought I got everything put back together. However, the right button no longer lights up, screen won't come on (not shattered or anything), and makes an odd almost clicking sound when turned on. I'm sure I messed something up on it, but the actual process wasn't as bad as the video made it seem.
Jerry my battery life is terrible on my HTC 10 do you have any links for a new battery for the phone?
真是太感動了! 希望以後每個零組件都可以單賣 或是升級
這樣DIY 更有意義
love to watch your videos Jerry!u are awesome...
Love your channel man! Keep up the awesome work!
Are the electronic components manufactured in Taiwan?
Does this way also work for HTC 10 Evo?
Can you post a link for the correct battery? I need to replace mine
If I just want to replace the chassis from silver to black, I can reseal easily or should I get some new glue?
Where can i find a replacement charging port..? My phone suddenly went dead and has never been dropped or submerged. When i plug it in nothing happens, no lights. Cant even boot into bootloader. Sprint repair said there was a little corrosion around the charging port. I would like to try replacing the charging port and battery.
hey jerry, i need to change my screen which is the white model one, but i am.only getting a black one as replacement, can i change the fingerprint scanner too? or i must swap the same old one due to security reason of using the fingerprint scanner.
thanks
Hey im not a pro with phones but what are those little cables they taped on the motherboard?? it kinda looks cheap... and dangerous... like the glue from the tape could get weaker and maybe after some drops they wont hold those cables anymore and it will cause a problem if they disconect or something so you will have to do this whole opening up your phone thing to fix it... is that true or not?
cool vid! can you do a blu vivo 5 durability test and a tear down video?
Just swapped the battery, speakers, switches, and screen....and the screen is showing static then distorted versions of the decrypt screen. When I try and enter digits the screen will move and numbers will change size. Tried unplugging and reconnecting the screen cable and now it's all black. Doesn't seem like the ribbon cable goes in far enough, but it's straight so I'm stuck.
Do you happen to know how much of phones like these are assembled by machines and how much is assembled by hand?
I agree that i looks messy but seeing how everything is on a separate board and very modular, i think it was a deliberate design choice. If somehow they make it (a lot) easier to open and decide not to solder the vibrator motor to the motherboard, it might be easier to repair for the average joe because they can order one of those boards and swap it out.
HI Jerry . i Spilled a glass of water on my HTC 10. powered it off immediately. i ve been resting it in my camera dry box with a silica unit since last night. around14 hours now. how water resistant is the HTC 10? safe to power it on?
HI AND VIEW YOUR VIDEOS BEFORE CHANGE THE BATTERY OF HTC 10 AFTER CHANGE A
PART OF THE TOCH DOES NOT WORK, CAN YOU GIVE ME ANY TIME TO FIND IT?
Hi Jerry, would you recommend this phone for me if HTC is not available in my country? I know that I wouldn't get the after sales service if anything bad happens but judging the build quality of Htc phones, they seem to be pretty well built. And I'm thinking of getting this phone. The only gripe that I have on this phone is the problem of getting it repaired once it breaks or something.
Hi bro my phone camera and flashlight not working this is camera problem or repair problem???
Hai...Which store are better to buy screen...etrade or fixez....??
Well, here I am again on screen number 3.
In December I needed to replace my badly degraded battery. First original grade A LCD was destroyed removing it. No physical damage, my playing card just severed a ribbon cable between the LCD and glass. Battery replacement and LCD replacement was successful.
This LCD went faulty after 4 weeks. Phantom touches, etc.
Replaced this LCD. The new LCD was perfectly fine with touch, but had a blue tint where the light was meant to be white. Typing speed was decreased by half, as the digitizer was far less responsive. Think old school capacitive. Now this past week with the heat in the midwest the digitizer has gotten less and less responsive. Woke up this morning and touch no longer works, period.
Lesson learned, buy an OEM LCD. In my case I bought a used genuine HTC OEM LCD from a T-Mobile HTC 10 with some slight burn-in issues. Grade A condition screens are around $55 which I am unwilling to pay on a phone this age.
Guess I'll be taking it apart for a 4th time when that arrives. Does this make me a sadist?
