The displays somehow stayed intact, I was expecting someone to rip it clean off, and I have now instilled confidence in them to repair their own devices. It really is not rocket science. the only thing I did prior was removing the old battery adhesive and replacing it with a little bit of Tessa tape though, I didnt want them bending Lithium Ions...

Reminds me of when my wife's Google Pixel was "repaired", by an authorised repair partner. She had to send it back first because they didn't remove an internal film, blocking the front camera. After a short while it stopped working. Turns out they had fixed the battery adhesive tabs at the wrong place, they went over an internal ribbon cable, when eventually broke under the pressure, then with the battery moving around , the cable for that broke and the phone stopped working entirely. I also found they had snapped off an internal microphone ribbon cable, there's no way they didn't notice this as the microphone itself was not in the phone, just the end of the ribbon cable.

This experience hits so close to home for me. My charging port died last summer, and I asked a local shop for a quote for replacement. They quoted me for 30 bucks if repair was to succeed or no charge if the screen cracks during removal ( obviously ). Went ahead and took the phone in as if it works out at least I can resell it. Two days later I got it back, charges superbly.. but the screen is messed up with huge patches of dead pixels. It did not break but the heat needed and the prying they did surely killed it. They offered that they can replace the screen however the original parts cost half the resale value, I could confirm this myself. Chinese LCD seem to be more miss than hit for this model. So now I have a shoddy repaired phone that I cannot use or sell besides for repairs. I would love it to have it fixed but giving the same shop more money is just... If only my screen was mounted back this bad I could maybe fix it, but its glued on really well :)) as opposed to Hugh's example

the repairs I used to do for friends in elementary school ended up better than this phone after that shop... pretty outrageous

Me watching this video on my Nokia 7+😂. As a user since 4.5 years I can confidently that this phone never let me down in terms of performance till this date👌

@4:57 screw isn't really missing, what's missing is the thread for the screw in these non-original replacement PCBs, so there is nowhere for the screw to go

Isn’t it disgusting when you pay for service and you get this crap. I’m so happy I’m not this type of person. If it’s worth doing , it’s worth doing it well ! I like to adhere to this philosophy. Great job Hugh.

Just a tip. When applying liquid glue, apply it on both surfaces that will be in contact and wait 2 or 3 minutes before gluing them together. You'll see that the bond is much stronger and almost instantaneous.

Hey Hugh you should buy smartphone adjustable clamps better than rubber band

I'm still using this gem of a phone after almost 4 years, and it hurts to see what that "teChnichian" did to it. Thanks for fixing it :)

Great job as always 👍 Nokia 7 plus was my top 5 phone which I want years ago :) Edit: i like that copper and black combo, too. I remember in 2017-2018 there were leaks that iPhone XS and XS max will be in copper. It was beautiful but they hadn’t release it😮💨😂

Is placing books on top of the glued display a good idea? In my opinion, it would ensure exual pressure was applied to the whole display
