- Today I am going to show you how to replace the battery on the Google Pixel 2 XL, as well as how to change the screen. It is highly recommended to change the battery only when changing the screen as well. If your screen is not cracked and you still want to change the battery, TAKE YOUR TIME, DON'T RUSH!

Simple and to the point! I like it!
oh wow I am so glad I watched this before I bought a battery kit. I will take it to a store to get it changed. Thank you
Exactly.
Thank you! Your tutorial worked like a charm for me.
How can I find the rear camera glass cover?
Matt, I'm wanting to replace the worn battery on my 2XL. My screen is cracked on the extreme bottom left, AND the screen/phone works A-OK, as the crack isn't on any of the necessary usable screen area. QUESTION: When I heat the screen using your techniques, and I use extreme caution and remove the screen by suction and pulling, will the crack grow???
I accidentally disconnected the cable to the left of the battery plugin spot. Is there a way I can fix this?
good job
Wow looks easy. Just hope I don't break the screen replacing the battery.
Any update?
@@Mchillen97 I sold mine for$100. With original battery.
Really Nice video, just to the point.
A simple question... does it compromise the phone's waterproof ?
Thanks! I would assume not. Also think that companies only offer 1 year (for the Pixel 2 XL it was 2 years) of warranty, meaning that the water resistance is only "guaranteed" for 1 year anyways. But you will need to add some waterproofing glue to prevent liquid from getting in, but I would always assume the device is never water resistant again after opening up. You can test it after, but the risk is not worth it to me lol
@@RealWorldReview thank you!
I don't know if you had any luck finding an OtterBox case, I liked theirs for water resistance.
I didn't find one for my phone yet, sometimes they are pretty bulky
OtterBox cases do not offer water resistance for any of the Pixel cases. You may be thinking of LifeProof which offers water resistance in a poor design
Changed Battery, Screen and Usb Type C connector.. I tested all functionalities before gluing the screen but unfortunately the camera is not working. When I try to open any app that use the camera it crash.
Google camera in particular tell me that a problem has occurred and then crash.
Using an app to check the hardware it seems that the rear camera is no longer present. But I did not do anything on the camera and I checked that the connector is connected properly. Any idea on what can I do? Please help .
One of the reason I decide to repair my phone was for the camera, and now it's the only thing that is not working anymore :/
Is possible is got disconnected, but it's also common to fail because of a chip on the board that powers the camera.
@@RealWorldReviewthank you for the replay, if it's the chip that is broken the only option would be to change motherboard?
you should mention how thick the guitar pic is. there is different ones i learned
Thin one for sure. Whatever the ifixit one is
😮
please don´t glue it. Use the pre cut adhesive available for cheap online !
