      +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.

    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"

    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

    • @MrCourty89
      @MrCourty89 6 років тому +2

      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

  • @CraigFromTheLand

    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 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.

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!!

    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" ...

    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.

    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.

    I just performed this repair and my god it is a complete nightmare. Screen still works but has lines down it so I've ordered a replacement. Everything else seems to work OK after replacing the battery. Need to do a complete test though. I agree with Jerry, buy a new screen just in case because the chances of breaking it are high.

    I'm about to change the battery on my htc 10. Is a suction cup an option to create a gap for the cards?

    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?

    What a big let down, and I thought the overpriced Samsung Galaxy S7 edge was bad! It was ticking all the right boxes and had everything I was looking for; great audio, good camera(s) and a decent screen, but, you can't get the damn battery out without taking it apart! Why can't manufacturers take a leaf out of LG's book. My search goes on. Great video, very informative, thanks a lot.

    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!

    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

    Well first off you do a great job, clean, professional and detailed. I on the other hand SUCK at this HAHA I've taken apart a lot of things so I figured you make it look easy, I know it won't be that easy for me but I can get it done.......... WELL now I have a phone that while plugged in, the light slow blinks amber. Do you know what could be wrong? I know HTC says that means the battery is very low. IDK probably just going to grab a new phone but the budget is $180 so it's tough. Any thoughts?

    @MrDennidenn 8 років тому

    In my opinion this is better than what Samsung did with the s7 edge where many things are glued together. Because there you cant replace just the charging port or just the sim-card slot so you have to replace the whole unit. So what HTC did here is actually slightly customer friendlier, even if its complicated and messy.
