Hi, where can I see the sim card slot for these? We have 2 Chromebooks but there are some sort of small foams on both slots at the back and we can't manage to remove them. I just want to make sure that that is the correct slots before I tear the foams. Thank you for your answer.
Thank you so much for the video. I have samsung galaxy chromebook2, model number "xe930qca". I have an issue with wifi connection and i found out that the wifi card is defective. Is there a way i can replace the card? Is it built in with the motherboard? What part do i need to buy and where does it located? Please help. Thanks you in advance
Most likely not. If its integrated into the motherboard, removing it would take special equipment and skills. Usually easier and cheaper to replace the motherboard.
hey man, not sure if you will see this but i have quite a few of these im planning on selling and i was wondering if it would be more profitable to sell the computers or the parts, thanks.
I just needed to change the battery so that seemed pretty simple. Although who ever had this poor thing before had something go wrong and there is a hump under the keyboard and touchpad. Only the touch pad doesn't work just right so I use a mouse.
It actually was really good. I got a used chrome book for real cheep and the batteries will cost more that I payed for this. LOL But I can do it if I have to Thanks a lot.
I have one of these and it's not really good for anything other than UA-cam at 360p. 480p drops frames the moment you move the touchpad. Are other Chromebook motherboards able to be transplanted in? I'm hoping to get more functionality out of it since it doesn't even support Playstore.
No. Unfortunately you cannot just bring in another motherboard. It would have to be compatible and fit into this computer. Im afraid this model is very old. Not many options for upgrades.
the chromebook i have is enrolled and the only sure way of unenrolling is to replace the ssd. the only problem is that the ssd is not in the spot it usually is in and is probably under a plate i dont think it able to come out without breaking something because it almost looks like a small rivet.
Show, please, how to disable write protection on motherboard to install linux. I have disassembled according to Your video, but i can not find switcher or screw for this purpose
@@PC_Monkey i am going to install it than i write result🙂. I was seeking for the sxrew, but i read about absent it too late. When the motherboard was out of laptop i read Your information about absence of screw and write protect. I connected all the parts but chromebook did not started . I brought today to service center to see what i did wrong. In some caces i need to see how to assemble device together. May You record such video. That situation was as lesson for me - to be more attentive to avoid excessive pay in the service center😀
@@ИгорьСазонов-ч6у This video shows a full teardown of this model computer. Was this not enough to put it back together? What parts were you having a hard time with?
Yes, you would have to unplug the entire motherboard to take it out. If its still plugged in, how would you remove it? There is no write protect screw in this model.
@@godvision-9072 I dont understand your question. Are you asking how to remove the motherboard? You can see how to remove the motherboard in this video. Have you watched the video?
@@PC_Monkey sorry bro, yes i look the video, forgethe the question, i talking about remove the write protect but i can removed today in the morning, thanks for all the information in your Chanell 👌
I have a problem with my Samsung Chromebook XE303C. the problem is when it doesn't boot. There is a notification: module device security error. Please help. thank you
Yes, as seen in this video, this model does not have an independent Hard Drive. In those cases, it as well as other components such as the RAM, would be integrated into the Motherboard. If I mentioned every part not found in this computer that is found in others, the video would be ten times longer lol. Sry
Good question. That's what I was wondering too. I was planning to buy this model laptop but to upgrade ram and hard drive. Looks like that wont be happening.
Don't suppose anyone happens to know what I need to replace on my Chromebook? If I plug the charger in, there is no light, and I'm unable to turn the Chromebook on so I'm assuming the battery is completely dead?
@@PC_Monkey Thanks for that, having watched that video and the power jack testing video I have come to conclusion that there's a problem with the motherboard itself. I unfortunately lack the knowledge to trace where the problem is on the board, so just going to wait for a replacement board to pop up on eBay hopefully soon 🤞
@@mrbrit6746 Replacing motherboards on most laptops is usually a better option than trying to fix it. If you need help finding one, let me know :) Chromebook motherboards are usually pretty easy to find on Ebay
@@PC_Monkey Does it have to be the same model number as the one that's currently in my Chromebook, as there seem to be several different boards for the 303C? Can't find the board that's currently in mine on eBay right now
@@mrbrit6746 It does not have to be the exact part number board. But it does usually have to be the same model number. Look at the board to see if it physically the same. If it is, you can chance that it will fit.

Very well done. Who needs college when videos like this exist?
Thanks for the compliment :) Glad it was helpful !!
Hey I'm looking for the write protect screw inside my 303c can you help me find it
I dismantled my old chrome book because I was bored but will anything bad happen if I don’t plug the battery back in?
No. Computers should be able to run fine with just the power adapter plugged in for most operations.
Hi, you know how to disabled or where can I find the write protect of this model?
I'm looking for the information on this as well
This ifixit guide shows you how to do it. "Samsung Chromebook Xe303c12-a01 Series 3 Teardown" Super easy.

@@PC_Monkey can you do a video on the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook2 xe930qca, I am having the same issue thanks
how do you extract data from the motherboard?
hey man, not sure if you will see this but i have quite a few of these im planning on selling and i was wondering if it would be more profitable to sell the computers or the parts, thanks.
Are they fully working?
@@PC_Monkey some broken battery some are perfectly fine, also where would you reccomend i sell them because its hard to find a buyer
@@decymusperaza4767 The ones that are working, you can sell. Depends on where you live but you may not get very much for them.
A Little piece of charge broke inside of it, how can I take it out do I unscrew the bottom like your doing here? Can I get help please
What screws drivers are you using?

No. Unfortunately you cannot just bring in another motherboard. It would have to be compatible and fit into this computer. Im afraid this model is very old. Not many options for upgrades.
Can we perform upgrades? Ram or ssd?
Not in this machine, no. The hard drive and the RAM are integrated into the motherboard. They cannot be easily removed.

What model do you have? Most chromebooks have the SSD integrated into the motherboard. It cannot be removed.
PC Monkey the mode is XE310XBA I have look on google and safari and there are no signs of it at all I scanned the QR code and nothing showed up
@@kevingarzon8553 Yes, most likely to replace the SSD you would have to replace the whole motherboard.
PC Monkey yeah but it’s so weird that I can’t find it anywhere and developer mode is disabled
@@kevingarzon8553 Those chromebooks can be real weird with that developer mode thing. Gives me issues too when i sometimes encounter that

Where to get the motherboard besides thru amazon? The other websites look iffy
I usually get mine through ebay or amazon :)

If you remove the cover in this method you break all the attachment clips in the back - USB side - you need to remove the side cover first!
If your careful no, you dont break all the clips.
Thx though

Have you tried a reset as seen here? ua-cam.com/video/ZaMfigDjNR4/v-deo.html
Is there a wifi card I can replace? And if so, where is it?
What brand and model computer do you have?
Where is the hard drive?
Google tells me it is part of the mother board, soldered on, but, you mght really have mentioned that.
Yes, as seen in this video, this model does not have an independent Hard Drive. In those cases, it as well as other components such as the RAM, would be integrated into the Motherboard.

Can one replacement the samsung chromebook´s Flash_memory_solid_state ?
Usually not. Its integrated into the motherboard. Unless you have special equipment, its not possible.
hi! may i know where the ddr3 memory is located in this?
In most small chromebooks like this one, the RAM is integrated into the motherboard and cannot be easily removed.
@@PC_Monkey so i cant replace it with like 4gb RAM or 8gb RAM
@@ryzor3982 No. Not when its part of the motherboard :(
Where is the memory located?
As is many Chromebooks, its integrated into the motherboard. This means it cannot be easily removed / upgraded.
Good question. That's what I was wondering too. I was planning to buy this model laptop but to upgrade ram and hard drive. Looks like that wont be happening.
@@mwendia You can always add external memory and storage but ya, best to get a computer that has ports / slots for upgrade :)
How do I tighten the screen it wont stay up on an angle ?
What wont stay up at an angle? If you see screws that need tightening, then you would get the appropriate sized screw driver and tighten them
Where is the write protect screw?
You know where it is, I've also been looking for it for a while, but I can't find anything.
Can I upgrade RAM? please speak
In this model computer, the RAM is a part of the Motherboard and so cannot be independently upgraded.
Don't suppose anyone happens to know what I need to replace on my Chromebook? If I plug the charger in, there is no light, and I'm unable to turn the Chromebook on so I'm assuming the battery is completely dead?

In this and many Chromebooks, the CPU is integrated into the Motherboard and cannot be easily removed.

The RAM and the Hard Drive (HDD) are integrated into the motherboard on this model computer. They cannot be easily removed or replaced.
