How to Replace a Samsung Galaxy A03s Screen - SM-037U Screen Replacement

[@ignfig]

Thanks a lot! I'm glad, the instructions of the video worked perfectly, and the screen looks excellent. The step-by-step explanation was very well done, and you really did a great job.

I've noticed isopropyl alcohol being used to disolve the glue on most phone repair videos. Goo Gone works so much better but leaves an oily residue that won't let newly applied adhesive stick so after disolving the adhesive with Goo Gone I use isopropyl alcohol to clean up the Goo Gone. Though you might think 2 steps is more work, it's not because Goo Gone works way better than alcohol for disolving adhesive and the clean up is very quick.

Thank you for your awesome video. Replaced my daughters screen and made her super happy

[@fieldhitandrun]

i love this video its step by step and trial and error with no steps missed even corrections,,,thank you

Be extremely careful with this part 10:00! Some people put too much glue/adhesive in here that you could rip the whole part in two. Again, be very careful.

Since I've had to change my son's screen now a few times now and my neighbor has the same phone and I had to changer hers for her two just a month ago, I have two things to note about the power / Volume button ribbon. 1) under the volume button pair is a metal plate, make sure you get under the plate (i.e., between the plate and phone from) and not between the PCB and the plate. Also being a metal plate, you can also be a little more forceful here without risk of damage as long as you are between the plate and the phones frame. 2) should you need a replacement button ribbon assembly, watch because there are some that are being sold as being the correct ones for the A03s SM037U (United States version) and it is not correct and will *NOT* work. If you look closely at the frame and the button ribbon assembly, you will notice that the frame has two alignment pins and the ribbon cable has two U notches that straddle around the Pins. The incorrect aftermarket ones have round holes and they are offset to the wrong side (they are offset to the Screen side but the pins in the frame are offset to the back cover side).

yep, mine ripped in two

[@laurakane5131]

Thank you so much! The video was so helpful :)

[@alexhine7884]

A little bit of alcohol and a cotton swab makes taking the volume button off a lot easier. Just add a tiny bit of b7000 to the new frame before putting it on.

It sure would be nice if they would stop making the screens out of tempered glass and use polycarbonate instead but you know then they wouldn't make money off of new phones every 6 months when somebody shattered their screen

[@destructionindustries1987]

Hello, I damaged my a03s and so the screen responds to touch but shows only gray lines. Thanks for this tutorial!

[@ZanahaKumaninastinnetty098098]

Where do you buy replacement screen

[@juanvaldez4923]

I can fix any iPhone screen I work at a cell phone repair store been here for about three years but I’ve never really fixed any android so ima give it a shot a costumer has one he needs the screen fixed on but holy cow this looks way harder then an iPhone is to repair so many thing you have to remove and put back together on the replacement screen!! 😮 wish me luck haha 🍀🍀🤦🏽

[@cameronttp]

Hello trying to be 10000% accurate. what adhesive is recommended?

[@buddycrockett5413]

The back piece that holds the volume rocker is broken and so the volume rocker does not want to sit correctly. Any suggestions for fixing such piece?

[@CarelUnderco]

What can I use to remove the battery if I Don't have alcohol

[@chrisk2734]

Are you able just to replace glass and not frame?

[@CJ-ty8sv]

Yes but but for the few dollars more that it cost, its not worth the hassle because you still have to take the phone apart to an extent to be about to be able to unhook the display / digitizer ribbon cable and feed it though. By time you do that, you are already half way to just changing out the frame / screen assembly and as mentions, the complete assembly is only a few dollars more because the display / digitizer assembly is the most expensive part of the assembly.

[@alexhine7884]

If you're talking about just the glass and not the digitizer or led portion, yes, it's possible. But really not worth it. You need a phone vice, a heat gun, a wire separating tool, and uv reactive glue to put the new glass on.

[@richardowusu7536]

Well done 👍🙏✅

[@techwithbec]

I accidentally broke the power/volume button strip. So the volume buttons respond but the power button does not since that is where the cable snapped off. Anyway I could fix it? Like can I glue it and get that current going again haha or can I purchase just that part somewhere? Everything else is fine, I just did not use enough alc to loosen that part.

[@williamMay-e7l]

Don't you have to put the sim card back in? This phone will work without it?

[@mattdavis9601]

Android phones without SIMs act just like WiFi tablets. They'll need to put the SIM back in to make calls and use mobile data; but, everything else will work just fine.

[@sydneybryant9430]

The phone will not turn on after replacement it will light up and say samsung for half a second when you try to turn on. Help any idea the cause

[@gihanhanwella3307]

Thanks for the video, are you using 99% alcohol?

[@4dpixel6]

[@jasmincooper7146]

I have a question if you've got time

[@roberthunter6892]

[@davehasmore87]

Welp this video was very helpful. But as I was taking the battery out it sparked and caught on fire.

[@ThattGuyJB]

Oh shit 😂

[@RandomGamesProductions]

well, that's fun. hope the phone was still usable and that nothing else was damaged.

[@philotis1896]

[@colin6052]
