Galaxy S4 JUST THE GLASS Screen Repair BEST Video

[@invertidols1307]

It’s not a repair guide video unless it says BEST VIDEO in the title

[@JustinChristensen6]

By far the best tutorial I watched about how to do this. Very helpful, and I was able to get my screen replaced without a hiccup. I was using a hair dryer instead of a heat gun, but I found that it only took a minute or two until the phone was warm enough to begin separating the glass from the LCD. I had no temperature gauge at all, so I would heat the glass until it became just warmer than you can comfortably touch. Couldn't have done it without you JerryRigEverything.

[@moizagha5448]

Yes

[@joeyli4322]

What about 2015?

[@blobbloop6754]

Yes same

[@OTP2023]

Fvckin true lol😂😂

[@andrewtechful]

Thanks for a great tutorial. I was able to replace my screen successfully without any issues afterwards. I just want to say that this process CAN be done using a hair dryer however, it will take you double the time if not more because it takes a little longer for the screen to reach 185 degrees. I would recommend just being very slow and patient with during the process because it's VERY easy to mess it up if you are not careful. Since this was my first time, it took me nearly 3 hours but I was taking my time and doing it very carefully. Hope these tips help and good luck :)

Always love watching your videos, very informative. Keep putting up these great videos.Thanks.

[@LonnieChrisman]

Just did a successful screen replacement on a Galaxy Light from watching your video. Thanks! It went totally smoothly. Screen separation was actually a little easier, I think the adhesive was only around the edges. Excellent video, thanks again for sharing.

[@JerryRigEverything]

Lonnie Chrisman No problem! Glad you were able to get your phone fixed!

[@ptmxtwo]

best instructional video i've viewed on U-Tube. the presenter speaks plainly and patiently in English. Video includes multiple links similar repairs.

[@coolestfoolish]

I came here to fix my sisters phone, now I'm completely sidetracked by your voice. ASMR indeed.

[@JerryRigEverything]

+Amber Carradine Thank you ;-)

[@SteveRapson]

I produced radio and TV advertising for years. I noticed the voice, too. It's a rare commodity. Thanks for the phone fix, too!

[@dominick3579]

Thanks a million!! After watching this, i feel a lot more comfortable on replacing the glass whereas other videos make it seem dreadfully scary on doing it because the amoled and the digitizer are so sensitive.

[@JerryRigEverything]

Dominick Oranika It is incredibly difficult. Go very very slow. This is in no way an easy repair.

[@stephaniresnick2666]

I watched a lot of videos and yours was definitely the best one out there. Thank you so much. You made it so simple and clear and were so quick. I used the card trick and a heat gun on low and it really didn't take me that long. Thanks so much!

[@JerryRigEverything]

Stephani Resnick Nice! It makes me happy to hear that. Glad I could help out!

[@glisten2010]

Clear and concise. Excellent video. I used a hair dryer and stiff business card. It took longer. Had to be more careful about force. This is because a heat gun like the one in this video puts out much higher heat than a hair dryer.

[@cjkcten]

Thanks JRig - great video! Watched this and your Tips & Tricks video. Called several places around here in South NJ that said there is no way to only replace the glass on the Galaxy S4 & S4 Mini. It would cost around $225 + labor, because they would replace the digitizer with the glass. Phone insurance wanted $125 deductible to replace phone. Looked around and found an S4 Mini glass that came with tool kit/wire/tape for $10.95. With the help of your videos, I just finished my wife's S4 Mini glass replacement and saved at least $115! (Oh yeah, I also wrapped that sucker in an Otterbox Case before she touched it again, cause it did take me about 2 hours - haha) Well worth it though - Thanks!

[@JerryRigEverything]

cjkcten Heck yes! That is a way tough repair, I am very impressed.

[@Joe.Oldest]

Great job on it! Kinda bummed no one around here is willing to fix those. Thank you for the upload.

[@TheRealSpeedWolf]

Thank you. you just convinced me to send my phone to a professional

[@kennedy135]

I did exactly what you said and it worked like a charm! Flawless! Thank you man!

[@Smigzi]

Many thanks mate! Got the screen off in one piece first time! Kudos to you friend :)

[@ray4493]

Man he used to sound so different then. I remember S4 was a big deal back in the day. One of our friends in high school period actually got one as present from him brother who’s been living abroad. We used to call him ‘S4 Guy’.

[@lefteris.adamou.1]

I'm using an s4 rn

[@escapeplan4]

The best video ever! Info about the safe temperature range and the glue options was priceless.

[@markusgranberg8004]

Totaly worked, thanks! I did get the pre cut oem black sticker/adhesive, this feels like a must..

[@jennyphonefixmachinefactor1217]

Do you also use machine for repair? that is fast.

[@tysinner]

You have the best screen replacement videos I've ever seen before

[@spainhughes9216]

This video, along with the accompanying 3 common mistakes, worked for me. The phone was worth less then cost of repair. Now it is fixed. Thank You,

[@brynley]

Thanks for this! Got the glass off first time without any issues. I used cooking twine to assist in place of the wire/cards and that was very effective. Keep up the good work!

[@jp21in]

One of the best how-to's I've ever seen. In my case, the glass is not messed up enough to justify this work, even though the glass is only $10. Had I not seen this video, I may have gone for it and regretted the time. It also confirmed for me that I may not be careful enough to do it right. Thanks!! If I were to shatter the glass, I might try this as I prep to replace the phone... :) Great job!!

[@JerryRigEverything]

James Prather Hey thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. You are correct. I would avoid this repair unless you had nothing to lose, and just wanted to do it for the fun of it.

[@bibekerai5000]

James Prather Sir ,I'm sorry for your time but i needed to ask you that can we buy the screen only in the random mobile shop ? Is it easy to get that or was it harder to find ? i am gonna try my LG G3 device. I just wanted to ask here about that. I wonder if i could use the same broken(slightly broken but went all off) screen or not.

[@DaveKomaromi]

Thankyou for making this video!! Unfortunately I wasn't sure exactly where the ribbon was at the top and managed to slice straight through it. From your vid I thought it was just at the first sensor hole. Whoops.... Still a brill video though. Maybe a pic of the digitizer at the start of the vid may help others avoid my mistake? :-)

[@venjaminalico8735]

I really really love your videos.. never gets old!..

[@jig4850]

Jerry, Thanks a million for sharing this...you have saved me a small fortune! It took me three hours from start to finish - really delighted with my efforts! Galaxy S4 screen replacement kit cost me just over £11 from Amazon and my daughter has put me at the top of her best pal list. I thought the screen would be irreplaceable, as it was totally smashed (and twice, at that!). Not bad for a Mum, who'll try almost anything once : )

[@JerryRigEverything]

J Griffiths Nice! That is way impressive. Good job on getting the repair done!

[@paolosbalchiero1457]

I love seeing your old videos Expecially title-wise

[@WorldOf173]

[@markmcd2780]

Hi, thanks for your videos - very clear and the calm voice is a plus. :D When showing the doublesided tape part, you mention 'covering' all parts and also the sides of the phone - bit puzzled by that as I don't see you doing anything but point to those sections. (the new screen is in the post so I haven't taken the s4 apart yet...

[@dasnyrussell9530]

Dude you are to good man you just make me anger cuz I don't have these tools. Wish you good luck you deserve better than a like.

[@rodcrow9197]

well put together. easy to follow-- thank-you rod

[@alekshernandez2]

Ron, congrats! Great video and greate description. I would like to replace the front housing (holding the digitizer) how duable is that? Got all the parts on a shopping cart for my S4. Thanks again for sharing !

[@AreStorholm]

Yeah. You got the best vidz! Thanks again Jerry!

[@noaharrance9890]

Hello Jerry, This video was super helpful, but i was wondering how you took off the digitizer.

[@MrSnookless]

Do you have to completely disassemble the phone as in your previous video to replace the glass?

[@mehad5866]

Congradulations for 4 mil subs

[@SlightlyMadGamer]

Hello, I followed your guide and thank you! It made replacing the glass very easy. I have one problem, the bottom quarter of my screen is not responsive. I had put a little more glue than needed on the bottom half. Could the glue have leaked beneath the LCD? And would a full LCD change fix the issue? Thanks in advance!

[@flyinghorse-hi4ul]

Dear very nice and informative video,love it

[@fly4doe2]

Good video. Thanks. Saw another video though where no new glue or tape were used to adhere replacement glass. The tech just lined up and pressed the glass into existing adhesive (although he did clean off the goop on the digitizer after removing old glass...I suppose that was adhesive too). Used heat gun afterwards to warm up glue for better hold. Can you recommend or condone that? As an aside, it appeared that the new glass might have had adhesive since it did have a clear plastic sheet on it that needed to be removed before installation.

[@JAYRAY00]

All the glass panels have a plastic liner, there is no glue on the glass. If there ever was, you would need to put the phone in an autoclave to remove all the bubbles.

[@3rdClaude]

Thanks for the help, I just peeled the glass off my Metro PCS S4. I didn't use your wire technique, but I did use two playing cards. After the glass came off, I popped in the battery and verified that I could still use the touch feature, and did not burn my screen. I waited to buy my replacement glass until I verified that I could get the glass off. Thanks again for the great videos.

[@JerryRigEverything]

Claude3rd That is a freakin' smart way to do it. Nice job!

[@austinharding9734]

oh no the one part that I was looking for out of ALL these videos is not there anymore letting you know the cutting wire link is no longer working on Amazon at least I know the name of it I can try to look for it myself though, 7 years later and still the best way to do it alota people think they got it but you definitely got it. Good job.

[@MattRobloxYT1]

Nice video Jerry

[@snowypython5209]

Ha!! Now in 2018 the phone costs less than the screen repair.

[@drefhill]

No i've bought a glass for 2€ shiped from China with the tools.

[@adrianjose7084]

I so wish I had seen this video before I tried to do my S4 screen and broke the digitizer.Something which all these videos don't say is, don't lift the screen until it is parted from the digitizer. the digitizer is like a paper sheet, it will bend and it will break if you don't do it correctly. This Video is brilliant. If you follow it to the letter, you will probably be ok. I would now be confident to do it ike this. Thank you Jerry

[@ptmxtwo]

thanks for your comment on the digitizer.

[@mrsonwaldiary1172]

I appreciate your voice is really cool

[@elise4983]

[@mktv9667]

wow...it's so good job ...thanks and I can do it by self now ...

[@ShahGhafoori]

Thank you very much for your amazing video brother. One Question tho ,my S4 screen is completely broken the screen doesn't turn on and its black although I can tell it turns on. Now I dont know if my LCD is broken or its just a cable. Any way to find out if its LCD or anything else?

[@Cherrypopissweet]

@JerryRigEverything I heard you say that there are few places locally to you that do that type of repair. I need the outer glass only replaced on my phone and I'm having a hard time finding somewhere that will do this repair.

[@oniinside123]

What's the aim of that small blue plastic layer you remove at 3:08? Anyway thx for the vid, it's really helpful :)

[@fajarmangadan2476]

goid presntation.aprct it.nice way of talking also .kp it up buddy.

[@haaleylew]

can i use a blow dryer instead of a heat gun?? great video!

[@sexton__hardcastle]

+Haley Lewis Yeah, but it'll take about an hour to heat up the phone.

[@doineed1or2]

lol just read the last comment and now don''t want to say anything, however your video was amazing and thank you for talking through it I hate it when its just dumb music or in a language I don''t know... anyways great job thank you

[@JerryRigEverything]

Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

[@tonyshams]

Great video, thank you!

[@luminumlx2604]

[@diemp4datei216]

Normal Video title? No! Normal Video title + BEST VIDEO!!! Yes!

[@prusso627]

Great video thanks for the help. I was able to get the screen off but now it does not respond to any touch. The screen looks great and all of the buttons work just no screen response. Any thoughts?

[@JerryRigEverything]

+Paul Russo Its probably shot. The digitizer might have cracked during the removal. Its a fragile thing.

[@prusso627]

+JerryRigEverything Thanks for the reply. Would I see the crack or is it a behind the scene's where the screen looks great but it not work. The screen looks great no heat marks or cracks. I did watch your video on the 3 big mistakes and I tried to follow them but I guess I was off. Thanks this is a great video

[@JerryRigEverything]

Thank you! and sometimes you'll see a hairline fracture. But sometimes itll be a complete mystery why the touch stopped. There is no fix that I know of. But maybe check the top ribbon cables for tears.

[@alexandrasanabria7586]

Excelent... the explication is really good! thx

[@gammatnt]

you only put the double sided tape on the top and bottom of the phone? You don't need it on the side? Thanks for the video.

[@welch3319]

Jerry where is the video where you use playing cards??? Thanks again great video. I have to repair my S4.

[@mdkh0900]

welch3319 be careful about ur Digitizer,

[@AnupomAG]

Just bought an used S4 for a really cheap price in 2019 . Just the glass was cracked a little that looks annoying . Searched for repair video and Jerry's 2015 video showed up. That looks tough . I probably should not try to repair.

[@ianchase7340]

What's size is the tape you are using? Where did you get it? Thanks for your time

[@JerryRigEverything]

Ian Chase If you look in the video description (right below the video) I linked all the repair parts you need right there.

[@ianchase7340]

Yes about that I saw it after I had already made my post

[@macgyver24]

it worked! 1000X thanks. phone still works. screen has come off. but there is alot of glue left? and rubbing with my finger doesnt make it come off. u have any other tips?..

[@pipdavis]

I used Goof Off and Windex.

[@__WJK__]

How does the repair turn out with the tape-in option vs the loca glue option... are there any noticeable screen glare/prizm anomalies under certain lighting conditions like full sunlight?

[@MOHDRIZWAN-cz2rl]

Your Awesome bro jerry

[@mrIpodmagic]

Will this work on Samsung Galaxy S4 ACTIVE? The ACTIVE uses a LCD display and the digitizer in in the glass. Any thoughts or links to this??? Thanks in advance!

[@tcg4111]

sort of broke my digitizer lol would that be an easy fix or no? if not, do you happen to know any cheap repair stores I can go to ?

[@macgyver24]

nice nice... the shop i went to wanted to replace the display. -_-.. now i see i can do it myself.or atleast try. i hear the method with tape..causes the touch to work less? its better to use the UV glue then?.

[@rubeerto1]

I was so intimidated after I broke my s2 experience that I said I'd never try to fix another glass but you're video makes me want to give it another shot on my s4

[@JerryRigEverything]

+Robert mccay Its still tough ;-) But good luck!

[@JAYRAY00]

5:37 if there's no glue left on the screen that's because it's stuck to the glass. The glue generally will choose one or the other.

[@thetot87]

Hey Jerry I have succeed taking off the glass. But the space key pad is not working properly. Is it because I didn't Loco glue the screen or I have to replace the whole lcd. Thanks

[@gadgetorials]

jerry was this you first vid?

[@Fpvfixit]

gadgetorials no unfortunately

[@reallyryan_]

His name is Zack you moron 🤦‍♂️

[@InvisibleYetVisible]

Hi Jerry, This video is really useful. Makes me understand how the previous owner of an S4 I have has repaired the screen. There's a problem though, it seems like mist appears under the screen without the LOCA Glue? Like a haze? You can't really see it when the screen is on, but you can when the screen is off. Is there any way of stopping this from happening Cheers

[@JerryRigEverything]

+InvisibleYetVisible Could that mist, be dust specks? That would be from not making a good seal around the edges with the double sided tape. (Or not using LOCA glue.)

[@InvisibleYetVisible]

JerryRigEverything Hello Jerry, wow thanks for the really prompt reply. Didn't expect you to get back to me so quick. I can assure you, it's not dust. I removed the glass using a heat gun yesterday. Cleaned both the LCD panel and the digitizer. I have a feeling that it's due to not using LOCA Glue, but you're not using LOCA Glue here? Are you not suffering similar problems?

[@JerryRigEverything]

The only problems I would come in contact with is when the glass layer touches the LCD layer, and makes a 'bubble' that looks almost like moisture. But that only happens when the layers are too close and you can fix it with more tape. And as long as you seal the LCD rim with the tape, you shouldnt get dust either.

[@InvisibleYetVisible]

JerryRigEverything Yeah it suffers from that as well. So you think that can be sorted with a layer of tape? Currently, it's only adhesive appears to be some very thin lightweight glue. I do wonder if this is contributing to the mist effect though? I'll take a photo and send it you, see what you think.

[@JerryRigEverything]

Sounds great. Shoot that photo to my email. (Found in the about section of my channel page.)

[@flamecel6581]

Hey jerry, i dont hav a heatgun, do you think i can use an iron to heat my phones screen?? will it work??

[@Yerr_ItsNick]

do you have a link to a similar wire as they do not have the ones in the description anymore

[@timnowlin4443]

Will the chrome bezel come off too? Or do I need to separate the chrome from the screen.

[@KevinsGames199]

I cracked the top left corner of my S4. I ordered the glass online and I'm planning to replace it. I'm a little scared about breaking it or doing more damage than is already done. I have spent a few hours looking at videos on replying the glass, but yours was definitely the best. Oh! One question! I have cards and a hair dryer, and the glass that I got came with the tape. I noticed that before you said that the glass could fall off if I use the tape, how likely is that to happen? Like should I just bring the glass. And my phone to a shop and ask for them to fix it? Thanks again

[@JerryRigEverything]

Kevin OShea A shop is more likely to use LOCA glue, which would make your phone almost brand new again. If you use tape... id recommend keeping a case on your phone that wraps around the edge of the screen to help hold it on. It all depends on how much you want to spend on this project.... And if you want to risk doing the repair yourself. Its a difficult one!

[@KevinsGames199]

JerryRigEverything how much would a shop normally charge to get the screen changed if I have the glass myself do you think?

[@ytdark7993]

Kevin OShea 20$ and no your screen wont fall off.

[@JAYRAY00]

DarkTube no shop is going to charge only $20 for the repair, lol. The glass only costs $10, and no shop is charging $30 for an S4 screen repair.

[@ytdark7993]

Some do.

Hi could you please tell me whether "Samsung Galaxy S4 Glass Lens Screen Replacement - White" link that you have given in the description will fit to my Galaxy s4 i9515 model? because my lens screen looks the same.. Hoping to hear from you ASAP

[@NisLionheart]

Jerry I did this method and it worked a treat but after a few months I experienced problems where the screen did not recognise my finger movements and accepting calls by swiping was a bit of a chore! what would you recommend I am thinking of buying another replacement screen. ive been told usually its the glue that sits beneath the actual screen that stops this from happening. but taking the initial screen off I rubbed of the glue film.! feedback appreciated

[@JerryRigEverything]

Don Nisar If you buy the whole replacement screen. (glass and LCD) that would fix your problem.

Just a correction denature alcohol is not made specially for electronic. Its normal ethyl alcohol with a few percent poison like Methanol or petroleum oil so you cant drink it. So if you have how vodka or something strong, that would work fine just more expensive .
