You go Hugh! Sony Xperia phones are seriously underrated and nicely engineered! I am very happy to see you tinker with androids! Really looking forward to your next projects
Yet another manufacturer added to the Hugh Jeffrey’s restoration list, nice work Hugh ❤️
I realy like videos of Hugh Jeffreys repairing old or different devices because un-familiar devices are interesting for me so i like to wath him repair them😊
It's weird to hear Data as Data and not Dayta.
😅
Again, amazing restore Hugh!
about time you learnt the right way
@@Rusty_Gold85 I prefer data as dayta
you never cease to amaze me Hugh, your so good at repairing these.
Another triumph Hugh, good one.
It was such a pleasure to see devices that are totally wrecked (I don't know how the previous owners use their devices) and get them running into prestine or almost brand new condition, more power to your channel #Salute
@0:36 The SD 650 was a premium midrange soc back then and the specs where upper midrange back then, too. Don't judge it by today's standards. :)
I repaired a Z2 in similar condition. They're not bad for a mid range phone and fairly easy to work on.
My current phone is an Xperia X that I got In THE BOX WITH ALL ACCESSORIES for only £30 as the man knew I had an iPhone 5s and was sympathetic towards me
I wish we have repair shops as skilled as you. My Xperia Z1 broke, had it repaired, it came back to me in worse condition
Buy the parts and do it by yourself with the guide from UA-cam
Lalremtluanga Ralte maybe in the future. I dont have the parts and materials for repair atm
Alvin Tung then it’s a wrecking shop ...
Sadly it is. 😭
Alvin Tung may it Rest In Peace ✝️
i use a xperia x daily for the past 2 years .great value for money back then crystal clear display ,decent camera and amazing stereo speakers.great reliability,and well built phone.
although it is starting to show it's age. snapdragon 650 is little underpowered now days and after updates apps got bigger and bigger so phone occasionally runs very hot , battery life isn't great any more.
definitely my next phone will be a xperia again.
Hi Hugh how easy did you find the battery to replace as my nan has the exactly same phone and she needs a new battery as she has had her Xperia x from launch
It's not hard if you dont break those white adhesive strips.
@@Alexander_l322 OK thank you
The other guy (Jerry Rig Everything) is tearing down brand new phones and this guy (Hugh) bringing old phones back to their almost new state. Opposite but both interesting. ❤🇵🇭
Who else has been waiting for Hugh to upload
Jerryrigeverything wants to know your location
Eh he just buys the replacement parts, not much jerry rigging
Budder 👌🏿✌🏿😘
Jerry rigs everything

Jeffreys *fixes everything*
I own a Sony Smart TV that I would like to use with an adequate Sony Smartphone. How amazing do the 2 tango, salsa, merengue, ice dance, or which ever form of dancing you prefer? Are there in-house features available like on the PS4- PS button powers on console as well as the TV... Thanks for replying!
This is the exact phone that I own and still using until now. 4 years with me
is it still good in 2020 ?
I really love watching your uploads 👍
I wish the guys at the repair shops in my country were as careful and professional as him...
Don't know why i love ur videos... Its just satisfying
Why don’t you get an anodised aluminium back with a full glass front machined for the device? Would be a good addition to your collection, don’t you think?
I still have my broken Xperia Z, Z1, Z2 and Z5 premium. I’m still confused if I would send it over so that you can fix them or keep them because of the sentimental value.
hi Hugh! Where do you buy the parts for the xperia?
Great job! I always love your vids, every week when you post a new video I am always exited to see them!
Brilliant Restore keep them coming i will always watch
Good video. I know your channel is more hardware focused and you like to keep things mostly factory, but for some of these more generic Android phones, it'd be kinda cool if you dug into the software and tried getting a custom ROM or something on em to bring them up to date.
@@ThatStella7922 That's awesome man. I've always avoided LG phones due to their software, but I bet they sing with Lineage.
beautiful phone
Hey! Do you know how to fix the mic next to the rear camera thats responsible for Siri, front videos and dictate function on an iPhone 6 Plus?
Man that battery looks so tasty
Good job Hugh
Wonder if you could do headphones? Involving audio-grade soldering and all
dint want to show up the master! but you could have used a hair dryer on the battery to loosen the adhesive before using the pry tool.
Excited for that J7 Pro
gets updated to android 8, too! gets much better with that update
Good video dude
Experia X is a beautiful phone. Thanks for giving that baby a new lease of life.
Frimmbits buts it heats very much and everything starts to stop working until it cool down
@@tgm8953 I think overheating is because Sony uses the back metallic cover as a heat sink.
Frimmbits i was using it along with case when it starts to heat camera stops working it has really nice camera never able to use slow motion due to heating now happy with my iPhone 7 plus
@@tgm8953 overheating is common problem with the Xperia water-resistant midranges from the middle of the decade. I had the Xperia M5 which was reaching 80°C but it didn't knew what thermal throttling is. However one day it landed on a hard floor with speed. All the glasses became pieces, the frame bent, but the phone was still booting up. To this day lies disassembled in a drawer, looking for a back panel, screen and front panel, and an earpiece. The battery was secured with two big blobs of silicone, dictating the pry of shame which I did it with a steel soup spoon...
Where do you buy your iPhone replacement parts?
I love Sony phones (and products in general), and I don't even know why I have always been fixated with their phones. I have never had one, but I have always wanted one despite so many people telling me they're crap. Same with their laptops.
as long as you stay with high end, Japan made VAIO m it works fine for a long time with excellent battery time, not thinkpad or panasonic toughbook longevity but close, kinda linke the dell professional latitude laptops. easy to work on, at least up to the 2014 spin off of the VAIO line. as for the phones i'd say it's the same with a few caveats as to the parts availability in some markets and kinda slow software updates but they work, less buggy than to the samsung ones. most of of the people i know with Sony phones are taking care of their phones and keeping them for two years or more usually and won't go for the shinny new thing every six months in or so. kinda late to the party but, had some time. 😋
I don't even own any of these phones you repair, still interesting to watch though.
Just curious if anyone can answer my query. I recently replaced the battery on my OnePlus 3T and I'm now having an issue where the phone seems to die around 10%, I try and turn the device on after it cuts out and it gives me a warning saying battery critically low and it needs charging, any reason why it would be giving me a false reading? I'd like to add that when the phone is charged, the battery performs excellently and holds charge much better than the old battery.
I wanna see you do the S5
Where do you get your replacement batteries? Cheers.
Where do you usually get your phones to repair?
I got an iPhone 6plus and the digitizer wasn’t working. I replaced the screen however it still didn’t work, the person said it was water damage but after examining it I didn’t see any water marks and the tabs that should turn red to show that it was in contact with water. However on the bottom of the logic board there were finger prints which indicates that someone else had opened it up. What could possibly be the cause of the digitizer not working ?
This guy is a true professional at fixing electronics 💯
Hugh hi ! Do u have any trustworthy supplier for parts, i am looking for an s7 edge replacement screen but i can't tell if the part is original or not !!!
Im a big fan of you but I have never seen somebody worked that hard on a old sony phone
I really would be happy if you could do this with a Huawei Mate 20! Not Pro Model. :) It is sad, that every Phone is with a OLED Screen, that is so expensive to repair :(.
Nice restoration hugh, wen will u do a restoration on a samsung s9 plus or another iphone X
Do the J7 Pro please. I have the same phone but the display was so fragile a little crack and it's done.
Do you have a link for where you buy the frame and lcd?
You know what? This seems like a tech channel, or some weird plastic fetish thing, or some version of loud ASMR, but what this is is a recycling channel, and a channel to make people think about what they are throwing out!
The best hexacore android device.
Faster
Reliable
Software stability is awesome
Battery life is perfect and charging speed too.
Camera is impressive.
Yayyy Another Video
Waiting for the Samsung s9+
These vids are so satisfying
Sony and iPhone look really quality inside
So satisfying video....love it😁
Happy to see more Android repairs. Keep it up, Hugh!
Thumbs up for the video and for sony
Pretty sure you applied the adhesive tape wrong. Ever since the Z3, Sony used HMG adhesive tape, which needs to be heat up after you place the screen on the body for a tight bond.
Same goes for Apple devices.
Great hugh 👍
Can u fix my Samsung Galaxy s7 edge the screen is broken and it has a very bad battery
Thank you very very much great video
You should try to restore a sharp aquos crystal. I have one and it’s one of the most innovative smart phones of its time and it still holds up to this day being that it’s only a low to mid range phone only costing $150.00 at launch. I had to scavenge the internet to find one in near perfect condition though.
Hugh, can you do a video on oneplus 3,5 and 5t.Much Appreciation.
Please make a restoration video for J7 Pro
Hey Hugh why don't you just repair one plus phone in the future video
Love your work man
Hey @ hugh jeffreys could you fix a ipod classic or a Samsung Galaxy s5
My first sony phone I'm still using from 2014 and it keeps up with modern games such as real racing 3, NFS most wanted, Garena free fire, asphalt 8, asphalt extreme and dead trigger 2.
May my old Xperia Z1 compact was soooo awesome
I recommend denatured alcohol for the adhesive...
nice phone, owned xa,xa2,xz1 :)
they are worthy :)
more xperias fix please?
@Ellis The DJ I don't know man, but I've always seen Sony devices as really well made and high quality. As an example, I have 2 Xperia E1 phones that are six years old each and still work like a charm. Meanwhile my supposedly "superior" Xiaomi redmi phone lasted less than 2 years before the charging port broke.
Always have loved Sony never had a screen shatter on me. But I wished they would’ve got their stuff together with their updates and cam software as well as the adhesive for display and rear panel
My last Xperia was the z5 premium got it at launch and replaced it last month
Loved it every bit minus the over heating issues and bend
Also the stamina mode really helped get great battery life on it
Used to do about 4-5 hrs screen time on that.
Wished Sony hadn’t pulled out of the market here.
Was very hard moving away from Sony
where did you learned to do that
Hugh need to try to post more videos man !
AAAAAAAAA
*IV'E BEEN WAITING FOR THIS*
oh wow hello
How long?
Can i send my broken galaxy s7 edge? And screw it up even more to see if you can fix it? I fix phone but I would like to see you fixing it. It needs a new battery, Camera, LCD, and back glass.
Do you face any image retention problems on this device? I'm watching on a Xperia X and the screen its horrible without an filter app
The back cover never fixed as like the original one, n the dust will be there in a few days, plus the adhesive on the front screen got tightened in winters n a slide of a drop can break the screen easily, I replaced my Sony Xperia z3 compact screen n back cover thrice, didn't work as the screen breaks in every few weeks.
Hugh, I have a iphone 5s logic board but it won't turn on... when I am trying to turn it on it feels hot at the top of the board where the display-camera- and switch assembly jacks are attached.
Help me bro... I am your regular viewer... and love from India
What happened to 60FPS videos? I’m just curious, anyways this video is top notch as always! Keep it up!
Really nice looking phone
Hai sir, I'm from India and I like your all restoration videos. Sir I would to ask you something.can l also purchase this destroyed phone in cheap price and ordered to India
that is one interesting thermal heatpipe 2 heatpipes too for just a snapdragon 650 damn that chip must have been hot af that it needed 2 heatpipes to cool it
Too satisfying
I hope to see Sailfish OS on that thing soon.
It's already there since several months.
@@marwynthemage I meant as in for Hugh to install it soon, I know that it existed for more than a year at this point having used it myself.
It looks great good as new
Wonder if I can send my old Z5 premium for you to work on
My brother brought home an xperia z with broken screen, I must have replaced it 4 times, even a whole new bezel with screen fitted, the glass was so thin the slightest miss fitment meant any preasure on the screen broke it, gave up after the last time it broke!
i wish i had your skills to repair phones
Can you repair Sony Xperia XZ2 compact?
Where do you buy broken phones??
I used to likem a lot but hated that every time it had a very small crack the touch stopped working.
My iPhone 8 is cracked and there are black dots in there and lines are all over the screen 😔 haven’t used my phone for 5 days I’m just waiting
Search for its part at aliexpress ( China), its very cheap
@@lrtaralte if you want terrible quality, by all means
@@thatdude5104 bought a screen for iPhone 5c, Galaxy note motherboard and numerous other parts from Aliexpress and the quality is not that bad honestly
@@dotankoch Amen to that
@@thatdude5104 no its not that bad, it is a super first copy. I even bought a fake airpods ( it's series is i80 wts), it supports siri and Google assistance. It is 99.9 % first copy.. Watch it on UA-cam
Do they get sold after the restoration?
How do you get these phones?
Nice video. When are you planning on fixing up your samsung s9 plus. And how were you able to get around google lock.
whaaaa so saiisfying after i watched this video ghaddd
What is that guys youtube channel that you did the car restoration video with
ua-cam.com/video/2OA0CRRcjzw/v-deo.html
I used to have alot of sony xperia phones back in the day
But the issues i always encountered are just bootloops
It was painful to use these phones on me… so i ditched the phone and got an iphone instead..
Now years later i found this video on my recommendations..
This makes me feel like using these type of phones once again but im afraid it will bootloop on me like i mentioned earlier
