I successfully dismantled my S4 to to dry out without breaking any parts. I really appreciated this tutorial. Your gentle tone made it even easier to follow along.Thanx so much.
I wish you could create How-To's for everything in life.
Great teacher.
+iLikeTurtles I'm watching this 8 months later and I almost liked my own comment LOL, didn't realize I was the one who wrote it originally.
After a hard day @ work i always come to this channel to watch a video & relax, helps with the stresses of the day...
THANK YOU!!! Following your easy step-by-step video I was able to transfer parts of my old phone to my new phone, and it's working perfectly. A local technician wanted over $100 to do the job, and I was able to do it myself with your video, saving a lot of money. Thank you so much!!!
Absolutely brilliant instructional video. I fixed my S4 which had a broken screen and LCD. I purchased a complete screen and LCD and following these instructions dismantled the phone, installed the existing components onto my new screen and everything worked fine. Thanks very much.

Φώτη, πόσο σου κόστισαν το touch screen και η οθόνη;
Hi lyckos I purchased a complete screen/lcd assembly off ebay for £62 but they may be cheaper now. Its much easier to fix your phone this way if it has a broken screen. Saves having to separate the screen from the LCD and gluing on a new one. If you do it the way I recommend all you have to do is
transfer the components from the old assembly to the new one. Very easy to do. ... All the best Fotis
Because for this video which you made, i was able to take apart my old broken phone, and replace them with new parts. My phone is working perfectly now- thanks to you.
Thank you sooo much, you saved me a lot of money too :) *****

This is the absolute best how to video I have ever seen. Vocal clarity, photography, lighting, progressive presentation all good. No BS. Congratulations.
Best disassembly video on youtube. Thanks. I just wish i'd of watched this before i took my s4 to bits.
I'm falling asleep listening to your voice...nevermind my broken s4 :D
Excellent video! Very thorough! Best disassembly and reassembly video I've yet seen for the Galaxy S4. Thanks a bunch for posting it!
I can't tell you how brilliant this was to find. I'm a single Mum, and a skint one at that... Buying the screen was hard enough and took me months, never mind paying for it to be fitted... Such clear instructions and shots enabled me, with zero experience of anything electrical, to replace it myself. Successfully! Massive sense of achievement, and my phone back. Thank you!!
well done that's great to hear, I always thought diy feels good :-)
Maaaaaan!!!! You rock! Probably the ABSOLUTE BEST video for working on a S4 phone!!!! Detailed, clear, thorough, rightly speed, nicely explained! Can I give 10000Thumbs up? Can I?
dude your videos are much more amazing than unboxing videos...
Hey I just used this video for a repair (proximity sensor) and it went very smoothly. Thanks for the detailed video it was hugely helpful and made a seemingly daunting task manageable. I still can't believe I just took apart my phone. Thanks
:-)
Thanks replacedmy s4 sim reader using this, absolute fantastic, its the clarity and closeups and explanation that does it for me!. Favourite repair youtuber for me thanks
You have unquestionably the best video quality and instructions on youtube. One disassembly and assembly video contains all the information needed for replacing any part. Keep it up!
I just wanted to let you know you're like a rock star. You're videos are a tremendous help doing my own repairs and helping me sound like I know what I'm talking about to my friends. Keep doing the good work that you're known for.
:-)
I do have a software relayed question though. Do you have any suggestions of a free way to unlock a t-mobile phone?
Isaac Saunders There's no free way I know of but there's some cheap ones on eBay ebay.co.uk/itm/191023330895
Thank you
This video is great at explaining how to disassemble the phone! After dropping my phone, the screen stayed blank but the phone turned on. I figured it was a loose connector. I opened it and manage to connect it again!
I have the same problem which cable is it?
the same thing hapened to me thanks now I know to put it back because I was wondering why my phone isn't working
I especially liked how the close-ups almost never went blurry -- excellent camera you've got there.
thanks, I hope to have a 4k camera soon which will make a big difference to the quality of the close ups..
It wasn't clear enough in other videos that I stopped by first where to pop off the backplate inside (from which the SIM and MicroSD Card readers pop out), and you made that clear here. Managed to get it off, and did me a solid. Thanks mate, much appreciated.
Thanks a trillion, this tutorial was very detailed and easy to follow! I dropped my galaxy s4 from my pocket, and with a case on the screen got damaged internally.
his voice is very calming, xD
It's perfect for ASMR :DD Consequently perfect for unintentional ASMR^^

Thank you. I've never before been moved to give feedback on a video, but the content and delivery are absolutely top notch.
I bought a replacement screen/case and used your video to step through the process. Your closeups were very clear and very helpful. You even mentioned about swapping over the heat sinks. Got it all back together and working good. Thanks!!
he explains it so easy and very understanding
It's 2:00 AM and I need to be up at 5:00.
I'm watching some guy disassemble his phone on youtube.
WTF is wrong with me?
:-)
Life saver. Best clear description of a S4 repair. You're the best.
Very thorough CLEAR instructions accompanied by a very nice easy listening English accent. Well done. Keep making repair vids!
My screws are so incredibly tight I would fucking mistaken it for a 13 year old..
what a really stoopid comment
don't use a metal tool, especially on the ribbon cables...very big mistake
I would never have been able to replace the screen/LCD on my phone if it wasn't for your brilliant video you explained everything so well that you couldn't possibly go wrong, you have save me a lot of money thank you so very much.
Best camera work I've see on a UA-cam instructional video EVER. God bless you.
Thank you so much for the repair video! I just followed your video and replaced my daughter's screen/digitizer which she had damaged when getting down from the car and slammed the door against the phone!Your video clarity was just great especially when you zoom in!
Very professional and perfectly accurate. I replaced my digitizer and screen on my Galaxy S4 (Verizon) in 45 minutes using your video! THANK YOU!!!
Best Galaxy S4 Disassembly & Assembly video on UA-cam. And I went through quite a few. Thank you soo much! :)
This is by far the best disassembly video I have EVER seen, so thorough and clear, btw your accent is awesome.
This video helped me a lot. I had to clean dust from below camera glass.
Very precise instructions, descriptions and gestures.
Thank you!
This video really made it seem easy. I'm not the most tech savvy person, but following it I easily went through a full tear down and reassembly of my phone. I work in a dusty environment and wanted to clean it out a little because I was having issues with my sim card not reading and wanted to just give the whole thing a decent wipe down. It is also good practice because I need to tear down my wife's so I can replace her screen. Thanks for the awesome video, and for the screen replacement video.
This video is excellent and made all the difference in me being able to repair my Galaxy S4, as opposed to me throwing it away. Thank you very much!
great tutorial and very profesionnal, i replace my lcd digitizer assembly in less then
50 mins every thing whent well following the instructions and save myself a few bucks, now my phone look brand new. thanks and keep up the good work!!!!
Fixed my volume button with you tear-down instructions, cheers for the knowledge! LEGEND
What a lifesaver you are. It's definitely much simpler than it looks. Follow his steps people and you'll be fine. It worked for me.
I can't believe I'm still using an S4, but I am. My speaker quit working (phone wouldn't ring when receiving a call, no alarms, etc.). I have an old S4 that had a cracked screen which was replaced under warranty some time ago. Using this video, I was able to swap out the parts from the old phone to get my S4 speaker working again. It wasn't the speaker module either, as I tried that first and it didn't fix the problem. It was the little circuit board and cable that is underneath the speaker. This video saved me having to replace my phone. THANK YOU so much for this.
Thanks for taking the time to do this. With your step by step instruction I managed to fix my wife's S4 and my iphone 5c. Again, thanks.
I followed your instructions in this video step by step and it was perfect. Fixed my broken components and weak wifi signal, saved a lot of money thanks to your help! Tchüß!
thank u so much ..they have asked me 1500rs to change my camera that went fault...but after this I fixed myself for just 200 ...thousand times thumps up for you ..thank you
Absolutely fantastic! I needed to replace my SIM tray, and this video made it an easy, 10 minute job. Many thanks for taking the time to video the operation and for uploading it ;-)
This is the best phone disassembly/assembly video I've ever see, I will definitely be subscribing!
Thank you for this video, it has helped me to replace my S4 screen and digitizer after a botched screen glass replacement. I found your instructions informative, clear and easy to follow.
The best Samsung Galaxy S4 teardown i've seen, excellent work mate. Keep up the good work ;)
The best tutorial vid for Samsung S4. Thank you, I appreciate your time and professionnalism.
Excellent lesson! Clear, concise, and easy to follow.
I had always thought my S4's front camera was crap quality and never really used it. On a recent vacation selfies came in handy. I looked closely at the front camera and saw it was 80% blocked by a black strip of plastic in front of the lens.
It turns out the front facing camera had a manufacturing defect: the CCD was obscured by a very thin sticky ring that sticks to the face of the camera. I followed your video and removed the front camera. The problem was clearly visible. I peeled of the sticky ring and repositioned it in the correct location.
At last, my selfie pics are much improved in quality. Thanks again!
:-)
Brilliant teacher. Gives you the skill and confidence.
Goes through even the minute details
Simply The Best
Excellent explanation, clear images and a wonderfully calming voice made me able to do this repair all by myself. Thank you very much!
very good step by step instruction, ,
a lot of details. if you follow it closely you can't make a mistake. Replaced my screen and camera , saved a lot of money
my galaxy works perfect.
Thank you very much !
You have the absolute best walk through period. Thank you so much!
Excellent video. I followed it step by step, which was easy, and managed to take my i9505 apart AND put it back together again (always a plus!).
Thank you.
Thanks man, thanks to you i could open my phone and clean it after it went into water and given for "dead" by the repair shop.
Now works perfectly(didnt even needed to change the screen as they suggested)
Thank you THANK YOU SIR! I searched for a video walk through to replace the whole front assembly, found your AMAZING very simple, step by step video & I have basically a brand new Galaxy S4! I would hug you if I could! You were my saving grace after my kids dropped and smashed my phone! It's going in a life proof now!! Thank you!! -Monica from Texas!

Thanks for making this great and highly detailed video! I used the video to help me replace my shattered glass and damaged digitizer on my Samsung S4, both were damaged in a very hard drop. The tiny black screen on the mic rubber gasket fell off removing it, thanks to your video I knew what is was and where it goes. I used a tiny bit of superglue on the ends only and it worked great.
The replacement assembly (LCD-Digitizer-Touch-Screen-Display-Frame) works great and makes the phone look brand new.
Managed to get it working! 3 rd time digitizer lucky! After fitting the digitizer still had the same fault. I noticed that the connector to from the digitizer didn't click in properly. Managed to sort this by removing the motherboard and clicking the digitizer to it that way. It is supposed to be a genuine part but who knows? Anyway all working now. Thanks so much for giving up your free time and responding to my posts. You are a gentleman.
:-)
THANK YOU ! Your video helped me a lot to fix my proximity sensor ! So easy to dismount and to clean up, took me 15-20min slowly...
Great Video and very good with specific parts!! Fitted my new LCD thanks to you and if I need to change anything else, You have given me an insight to what I should look out for. 10/10!
My proximity sensor was acting like something was near the earpiece all the time. Blowing a duster through the earpiece from outside worked for a while, but stopped. I followed the directions here to disassemble. I used a duster and my fingers to wipe particles off the sensor and it's working like new. I'm very grateful.
you sir have just earned my subscription, very detailed and precise instructions, even more than I bargained for.
Well done. Thank you! I used the first 3.5 minutes to disassemble my phone in order to clean proximity sensor. 60 second video for that part easily found elsewhere. Whole process took well under 30 minutes. Maybe 15 minutes.
Fantastic, I followed step by step and now my S4 is perfect again. Thank you so much for such a great tutorial :)
This is such an amazing video. Your voice is soothing and you have great commentary. Thank you very much!
You are a real hero! Thanks 2 you, I made from my two broken s4's, 1 total working one!
Brilliant. Managed to breathe life into my old phone. Many thanks. Great easy to understand video.👍
Great Video, bought sim and memory card holder for £4 used the video to fix my son's s4, extremely useful video, Thanks very much.
Your teardowns are amazing. Literally the best I've ever seen, and that includes iFixit and many others. Good job!
This was super helpful, thank you, and you have a very calming voice which was good for the reassemble :)
One of the very less channels that show such post mortem of mobile phones....grt effort man!!!
Excellent video. You didn't show how to fix a volume key, but following these easy steps it was so simple!
What a first class video. That could not of been better, well done. Peter
Thanks mate! I just repaired my mom's phone, thanks to you. I'm very happy, and subscribed now :)
Thanks for posting this video - it is excellent and very easy to follow. It saved me a lot of money when trying to replace the broken rear camera lens glass. Miraculously my phone works after me efforts! Thanks.
You're a robot, a machine... You can pay me billions and I'll never be able to do such a brilliant job. You have a lot of thumbs up from me! Nice job!
This video helped me. Thanks. My old GS4 had the Blizzard Authenticator app on it and the screen cracked so i couldn't unlock my account. So I went onto ebay and bought another one, and used this video to guide me through swapping the mainboards so that I could boot it up and unlink my account.
Thank you! My phone couldn't detect the sim card anymore.
I was going to send it away for expensive repair. Instead, thanks to you, I pulled it apart and found the SIM / microSD card flex cable plug had come loose. A quick push to reattach and just like new!
Great stuff!!! :)
OMG Me Too 😢😢
OMG Me Too 😢😢
Epic. As always. I still can not believe how calm you are.
Thank you, you wonderful person. Was able to replace my screen and recover all my data on my broken phone.
Thanks for the video. I managed to fix a phone with a broken screen. I got the new screen and digitizer on a frame and thanks to this video could rebuild the old components and circuit board onto the new frame. Cheap fix for 20 quid.
I must thank you for this video. Although everything is smaller in reality than in your video, I managed to take everything out from a screen-broken phone and put into working phone. That cost me 30-60% less than I would have paid for the repair.
great walk-through, straight to the point, shows all the important stuff, no bullshit.
Awesome video, Thanks!. I'm about to change my cracked camera lens and this helped a lot. After watching this I feel I have the confidence to change pretty much anything on my S4. Great Job.
Oh thank you sooo much !! My camera lens brokw into a thousand little pieces and was not sure if I had to replace the whole camera (25$) or just the glass lens (2.99$) im glad I can just change the glass and that you explain everything very well. Thank you once again.
This was very helpful - thank you! My phone is very old now so it was quite tricky to open some of the clips and deal with the adhesive. Sadly it appears my GS4 may be at the end of its natural life, but this was a great learning experience!
Thanks man, your detailed instructions made my replacement session calm and successful
Thanks for this great video! I "dropped" my S4 few days ago and screen completly broke because of this.. So after finding your video I followed your steps and got finally my S4 operational again with my first try (: Thanks a lot for this clear video!
Thanks, with your help i was able to replace the broken sim slot.
Fantastic video!!
I used this video to repair my proximity sensor. 2/2/2020. Thank you so much for this video!
Excellent as I ordered a replace screen for my S4 and then I realised I had to change the plastic mount as well. All is well now so thanks.
Twice now this video has saved me an expensive repair.thank you so much
You did a really good Job! It was a great help during exchanging the broken Camera!!! Thanks a lot!
Thanks for the detailed video.
You should be a radio DJ with what nice voice.
Very helpful!
another expertly produced video. The detail is so easy to understand and take in
many thanks....
Thank you so much for sharing this, it's so damn clear and detailed! I'm halfway there replacing my screen as I watch this
i'm glad you tested the camera, i really thought it won't work after you disassembled. Awesome as always.
