So disgusting that pretty much all manufacturers make it so hard to get inside the phones for repair or replacements.

[@ianbartlett9266]

No, its actually incredibly easy, you dont actually have to heat it up just use a fine plectrum to get started and gently work around the back is quite flexible and forgiving once open its really easy to replace the battery each component is plug and play like in youre pc.

[@bohemiansmile]

Excellent video. Pryor to changing the battery, any words of advice on dealing with a tiny diagonal crack that has chipped the lower left corner. About 3/16 - 1/4 inch from the tip of the corner. The glass in this crack in some places has fragmented and fallen out so I've added a thin coat of JB clear epoxy to cover the tiny pit/crack. Note: if u were to place your thumb on the tip of the left corner with your nail being 1/4 from the corner tip at 45 degrees, that's the area involved with several tiny cracks. Note: none of the cracks run into the screen as all are contained within this 45 degree area "chip" (Evidently a corner drop without a case ) before I bought it used. Many thanks 😊

[@ansh7335]

I will stick to my note 4 that I was thinking of replacing.

[@21753117]

I also have the Note 4 in excellent condition, with good batteries, and used to think like you. But I recently jumped to the Note 10+. Granted, the Note 4 removable battery is very convenient, and I love the Note 4 flat screen, its size and ruggedness with my Spigen Tough Armor case. But the Note 10+ is in a totally different league, it's WAY faster than the Note 4, has a huge amount of RAM (12GB = four times the RAM of the Note 4, and much faster RAM) that cannot be bogged down, it has more RAM than some laptops and even desktop computers. Plus the energy efficiency on the Note 10+ is insanely better. Also the software is hugely better in the Note 10+, the phone is unbelievably fast. There is this battery inconvenient every 2 or 3 years, but I think it's worth the hassle. Of course it'd be even better if the Note 10+ also had a removable battery, but it is what it is, in the end you'll experience much higher productivity with the Note 10+, you might not need it but the Note 10+ delivers a completely different experience.

[@ksojoel]

unfortunatelly i can't stick to my note4 since i dropped it badly and the screen doesn't work anymore. I am upgrading to the note 10, hopefully it can be with me for the next 3 years.

[@chadchristian3704]

@ Ansh - to your point we have a Note 4 and one time the battery malfunctioned, overheated and quickly had a melt-down. The battery started changing shape and appeared it was about to blow up. We were able to pop the back cover off, remove the bad battery and fixed the phone with a new battery. Didn't lose any info but with a Note 10 it would have been game-over. The problem with the Note 4 is the OS is so outdated we didn't have very many apps that would work for us. Miss using our Note 4 !

[@leaftye]

I have a note 4 too, but can't keep using it because it can't handle playing more than a few youtube videos before it locks up, and bluetooth has been getting so bad. Sometimes both are so bad that it needs to be rebooted. So it'll get replaced, but I'd like to try swapping the motherboard.

[@billstose5131]

[@cody1212143]

Can you remove adhesive from the battery ?

[@808pacifica]

I have seen other video that use contact cleaner or alcohol (not sure of rubber I ng type or isopropyl or same) to remove alcohol. Apply very little and let sit a little bit and then try to rub off away the glue with the plastic pick to loosen glue and remove. Heat is suggested but perhaps 9n these older phones they will become unglued due to age and remove with lesser effort.

[@joshpowell6029]

Thanks buddy, easy peasy

[@ericdaigle1738]

I did you procedure and it worked. but no screen. I can feel the vibration when it i hold the power button and when it boots up, i can hear the sound. but no display. am i forgettingi something? or did I break my screen?

I want to ask what if the process causes any damage of water resist specification or not?

[@tgn-contentandotherstuff5652]

As long as you use samsung oem factory glue it dhould be the same but your warranty will be void.

[@planetphatness]

Probably, I wouldn't want to test it after breaking the seal.

[@christopherhuber2517]

Would you reheat the phone to make sure all the glue reattached?

I wish you would have attempted to power the phone up via USB C WITHOUT the battery. I use this phone permanently in a dock via dex mode. Being that I’ve had several Samsung battery’s bloat and tear cell phones in half, I’m not comfortable with the battery charge state being 100% all the time.

He lost me at "use a hair dryer to melt the back"

[@LongDistanceCall11]

Not at all. Its much simpler than other phones I know. The only trick is to melt the glue, this is something I personally am very doubtful about. But other than that - the screws are all the same type and even size, something that almost never happens, with an iphone you get so many types and sizes you have to draw a map of where what goes. Also, the battery is almost on top of everything else, you dont need to take off too much to change it.

[@DudeAbides111]

So I'm late to the party, but I guess that's saying something about how long I made the battery perform well, and how long I was willing to deal with it not performing well. 😂 Question: Do you have a new preferred tool kit? The link in the bio is broken.

[@ianbartlett9266]

The note 10 or 10 plus is not waterproof, a phone tech showed me last week when replacing the usbc port where the water gets in, so how Samsung can say it has an IP68 rating is nothing short of ridiculous, these tests where you see a guy drop them in a pool or bowl are all fine for maybe an hour its what happens later on , for instance i accidentally let my phone slip and submerge for litterally a split second so as the charge port caught the water hence a new port board and moisture within .thankfully dried and saved by my my local tech.
