“You’ll just have to remove” *takes apart the whole phone

[@cindyrios2406]

😂🤣😂🤣

[@thesouthamerican.2282]

Apple crap

[@stephenplantone9720]

This video confirmed I’m taking my phone to the repair shop.

[@loidmaranon6042]

Yeah this is not an easy job. 1 wrong move can damaged the board or LCD

[@CJRomanes]

Very gently, carefully. Be very careful the cable is thin. *Aggressively pulls the cable with bare hands*

[@JohnnyK1]

You don't have to remove the battery! It's enough to loose and lift the bottom part of the battery only. You'll need a plastic pick and a heat gun again. Besides, this video doesn't show how to remove the battery. Also, there is no need to remove the top face recognition piece. It can stay. So, lots of unnecessary dis-assembly. However, still, this is a very helpful tutorial. This guy has an excellent detailed video how to remove the screen/digitizer as well.

[@LanceOlenik]

I've done a lot of iPhone repair work and this is by far the most involved project. My charging port is struggling, but not completely broken, so I'm going to wait on this one. Nice job on the video!

[@zak87]

Just FYI to all who try, the battery is held down by adhesive. It DOES NOT come out remotely close to the level of ease this video shows.

[@jahmo0]

And he used a metal tool to pry it out, someone is gonna watch this and start a fire .. smh

[@johntheone7669]

It took me 40 minutes just for the battery lol

[@jayallan7885]

need a little rubbing alcohol under the battery to soften the tape......then dry it completely before starting the phone

[@chrisa1161]

Thanks for the tutorial, that hat did get in the way a couple of times😂

[@darumsdad]

Beware! There are lots of step that he skips when re-assembling the lower half of the phone. (not to mention he completely skips the need to remove the adhesive to remove the battery). I would NOT use this video if you are a beginner.

[@saudiprince6532]

Cheers Dave

[@benjaminfranklin2408]

Okay karen

[@chrisa1161]

Thanks Dave, but you just need to heat the phone so that the adhesive is not as sticky. Be careful not to puncture or rip the battery!

[@twinfrmda7]

@@benjaminfranklin2408 you calling them karen when yo phone broke you gon be looking dumb

[@loidmaranon6042]

You’re right sir. I am a legit technician and there’s so much to learn before following this tutorial else it will cost people a lot of money especially if the motherboard will be shorted due to battery improper removal

[@nilssamuelsson467]

Pro tip: use an ice cube tray for parts. Don't go criss cross, go from one side to the other in a straight line. Place all the parts of each component in the pocket, don't separate covers, part and screws. Then just start from the back on reassembly. This will save you a lot of mental space.

[@BossLaiiDy]

Man I’m already lost. Too many unscrews and disconnects 🤦🏽‍♀️ I don’t think I want to replace the charger port by myself anymore lol

[@loidmaranon6042]

😂 you’re right

[@chester_ville_4066]

Thank you so much I appreciate you doing the video in reverse you're a king

[@scottmcgrath3367]

Awesome Video. I followed step by step and took my time. Thank you.

[@karimguet5967]

Hi, thank you for the video. At 6:05 you used a flat head screwdriver. What is the type of that screw ? Is there a more convenient screwdriver that can be used for that type of screws ? Thanks 👍

[@euvi85]

You can run the flex cable on top of the motherboard and avoid a lot of these steps. Sure it’s not pretty but it works and that’s what matters.

[@cristobalbalenciaga7295]

With every "and next up" my courage dropped. After the 5th I realized that it's going to be a new phone for me..... :(

[@SophieElle16]

I have one of these to do at work tomorrow, I'm not sure whether this video has made me feel better or worse about it, it looks so hard!!

[@Jc-jv5bu]

Do you need to program the port? Because when I put the new port in my phone was laggy and would bootlop.

[@TheFarazz]

Very helpful video however, I wasn't able to solve the issue with my iPhone X only being able to charge when it's turned off. I replaced the battery as well as charging port but it didn't help with the problem. Probably something is wrong in the motherboard.

[@tonyh8965]

Hi all, what's the black paper like stuff on the inside bottom cover the battery sits on? little bit scrapped off.

[@lowerbucksheatingoil7576]

Excellent content. I can see you know what you are doing.

Does the charging port feature the network chip?

What would you charge me to replace charging port and speaker ?

[@jacquesdahan494]

great video !

[@steverahe]

when you take out screws your don’t seem to need to have to keep track of them for reassembly - but since they are lots of sizes I would think it would be important to keep them organized. How do you suggest a for a non-pro so you know you’re not putting a long screw when a short one goes? thanks

[@MohammadAli-yh1mw]

buy a tray with different sections. thats what i do.

[@zboral563]

Hello , what doing this bracket from 5:55?

[@cesarlarios6573]

That was a great job you did with the Iphone 10, of course you have to have a bit of electronics back ground, is good to mention that you have to ground your self, because of the static on your body.

[@KipdoesStuff]

YOu need absolutely no electronic background. a better video than this one would help though.

[@sk8ingiz4ever]

They always pre-teardown phones. Tutorials would take so much longer and not be as effective if you had to watch them open and remove everything for the first time. It's just for efficiency

HI, I changed the charging flex on iPhone X. After that my mobile's google map is not working properly. It's working too slow and the blue indicator arrow is moving too slow it doesn't move with me while driving and stopped to do re-routing if I choose another street. Please help me.

[@KaeyahniBanks]

That’s too much to do!! Just for the charger port wtf

[@peytonbullock4939]

Karmen Loveee They pack so much tech into phones these days I’m not surprised it takes about 35 minutes for an experienced person to replace the charging port.

[@Jojohumf]

They do it on purpose so people can’t repair their own phones like we used to be able to, they layer it in a way that’s makes it’s very difficult to replace the charging port

Just go to a phone store and pay $50 to get a changed cause they got the better tools better then breaking your phone and paying hundreds of dollars to fix it
