The wallpaper was from "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild". Loved the artwork for that game.
A manual screwdriver gives you more feel of the torque when assembling it too. You lucked out, the battery was not covering the broken cable. Go light on the glue and tape, you'll be glad you did the next time you have to take it apart.
I like that it's overbuilt like that... gives me the fuzzy warmies
Some duct tape around the edges and She'll be right!
The same thing almost happened to mine, I use it for waze/navigation in the car in a mount, one day the sun was hot enough that while driving the screen separated. I ended up just using small binder clips on either side (its really only ever used in the car, and gets put away in a cool place behind the passenger seat when not in use)
The electric screwdriver is useful with longer screws that need a lot of turns before tightening down. Small electronic devices where size “matters” the screws will be as short as possible
Dave, yeah, I just did a new battery and type c connector on my LG V-60. This thing is built like a tank. I'm throughly amazed at the engineering to get everything into this format. Dale
Regarding power-on, in the past I had issues with a Tab 2 10.1 tablet that would not charge and not power on after being off for a long time. I was able to 'fix' it by using a non-Samsung 3A charger and after a short time it started charging. I actually rarely use this TAB 2 now but I keep it near my phone and charge it at the same time so the battery doesn't go flat and cause the same issue again.
I have the same model tablet. its been a solid performer for years now. no complaints
Hello dave
Hi
Yeeey Dave doing phone/tablet repair :) Nice 😊
Have the 2019 8" model of the Tab A. Solid little thing, runs LineageOS a treat. Definitely recommend a sturdy case for it. Unicorn Beetle makes a tough one, but, the built-in stand will maaaaybe last a week with kids handling it. Other than that, it's a tank of a shell for the Galaxy Tabs.
Have a Tab A SM-T350 from around 2016/2017 . Like a Timex. Takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
The front fell off!
I suggest gluing it down with B-7000 glue.
Yeah, painful... my Tab S5e also had a ton of small screws to take out.
One time, it was like some 2 in the evening, I was messing around with it for the nth time (mine had a broken screen, but I was trying to make it work via DeX with a TV I had laying around)... somehow I pressed something that the thing started loudly beeping and beeping.... xD I had to disassemble the whole thing in a hurry to take the speakers or battery out. xD
Buttons were doing nothing, it wasn't taking anything from an external keyboard, and I didn't know what else to do.
Anyways, nice job!
Oh wow, first time I see a tablet with screws from the lcd panel in. Usually the back plate is just a press fit with some optional glue which once taken off gives access to the screws. This is backwards from the other galaxy tabs and co I took apart. So weird.
Happy Kids ='s Happy Wife .. Happy Wife ='s Quiet Life Cheers Dave
Use an LTT ratcheting screwdriver to make removing the screws even more annoying.
Thanks, Dave, I got one of those free w/shattered screen. I should get on it before parts shoot up. Great to see what's inside!
If the LCD itself is not broken, you might be able to replace the touch panel separately, it is much cheaper, and it has the benefit that you can be sure the display is original, and not a questionable quality 3rd party knockoff. But before you order a bare touch panel, try to saparate the LCD from the old touch panel, and order a bare digitizer only if you succeed without killing the LCD. In some touch screens the digitizer is bonded to the LCD with its full surface, that's not worth messing around, just order a whole new screen (preferably original one) if that's the case.
@@mrnmrn1Thanks, I do believe it's just the touch screen, but didn't think to do the tear down ahead of ordering it, Thx again!
Fun fact about "made in China" - I only use Xiaomi phones, my employer hands out Xiaomi phones to everyone and I recently got a Xiaomi air purifier as well. Cheap and top quality. Some of the best devices that I ever used.
Nice fix! Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
How does a flatflex cabled with almost no room to move end up breaking, anyway?
Just like a little Lego?
10:04 ... Ahh, the Australian model, I see.
Was the cost of the new cable at least reasonable?
Retaining pins? Or inconvenient tear starters...
Where did you find the spare?
On side note, it's not only kids that are into BOTW!
I don't know if I have that same model or not, but my parents gave me one of those. I used it for a while with their cell plan, and then that got cancelled so I just don't use it today. Mine is cellular.
You realize you can use a tablet that uses 5G/4G/LTE on wifi just fine?
@@tschuuuls486 Yes but I don't have a big use for the tablet. Also my home network is set up to actually go out an iphone 11 cellular so it would just be using it. I used the tablet as a modem for their data plan really only.
Rule of repair #38: Inverse plastic sounds. If the plastic sounds like it broke, it didn't. However if the plastic sounds like it didn't break, it did.
So true.
Companies don't put screws in devices, older engineers who are set in their ways do that. Be thankful it wasn't some younger yuppie engineer who designed it with (now the norm) adhesive strips everywhere to make it even harder to open and cost less to produce.
bob maybe your uncle but is fanny your aunt?
No Fanny
@@EEVblog2 that will only make sense if you use our (UK) version of that quote "Bobs your uncle and Fanny's your aunt"
I knew a Fanny. She was such a naughty nanny.
What a BS tablet. Wanna fix something internal ? risk breaking the screen... gosh
At least internally it is not glued together like some of them (like the battery to the back plate, as Dave feared). The screen is easy enough to remove without any risk of breaking it (well, not for a DIYer who tries to do it the first time and not preparing with enough research and tools).
