Samsung Galaxy Note 5 Screen Repair, Charging port fix, Battery Replacement video

[@xonsightx]

I own a small repair shop and have been repairing phones for 6 yrs now. Back when I started there wasn't any videos on here to watch so I learned the hard way. Anyways, your videos are the best around. Please keep up the good work.

[@JerryRigEverything]

Thanks man. I appreciate it! My name is Zack too. *fist bump*

[@ahmedsardar6742]

+JerryRigEverything do you need a suction cup because i dont have on

[@Cu_Ty_Pro]

+zach pierce Can I send my phone to you so that you fix it? I dropped the phone (Note 5 - T-mobile, N920T) and cracked the screen. This happened back in November. But the phone had been working perfectly fine until the day before yesterday, when I turned it on, I saw the main screen, but it wouldn't response when I tapped on the screen, and around the cracked areas, the screen turned blue. Then gradually, the next day, it turned black and spread all over the screen. Now, it is totally black, even though it is on (I know because of the sound when turning on and off). So my guess is the display screen is dead. My insurance refused to give me a replacement since I claimed the incident happened in Nov ( which is more than 90 days - that you should report damage). If you are interested, please email me: [e-mail]. Thank you

[@ems4ty]

+Ahmed Sardar It's not completely necessary, but it is very helpful.

Here in 2020 seeing how far production quality has come. Good work Zach 👍🏻

[@greggoldsack]

I have been hacking/fixing/tweaking pretty much everything my whole entire life and after watching this video I think we would be buds. One of the best videos online I have come accross for anything goes to deal with phones. it's not only comprehensive , articulate and informative it's just very well put together. If someone is actually asking you questions after watching this then they may as well take the phone in. Well done mate. Defiantly subscribing to your channel.

its never a good idea to use a metal pry tool. it messes up the frames and glass. you can see where it scrapes the paint off the bottom in this video. i recommend using thin plastic guitar picks or pry tools.

[@lowmax4431]

Yea that made me decide not to take mine apart, at least until the battery gets much worse than it is. I don't want to damage my phone just trying to replace a battery.

[@DaveWestMedia]

Ha ha Zak, wasn't expecting you to pop up on the corner of the screen 🤣 Got one of these to fix myself soon for my son's friend, as there's no blue parts left I've told him I'm going to turn it gold for him 😁 Not looking forward to it as per most Samsung phones but can't he as bad as an iPad eh? 😉 Awesome job, still THE best how to repair videos on the platform 👍

[@Emmanuel-xc3nn]

Thanks Jerry. It's crazy how long you've been doing repairs. I started watching in 2016. I just recently received a Galaxy note 5 and your videos are always reliable as well as professional. It's nice to see how your sense of humor has increased in your recent videos as well.

Wow! I will NEVER do this, but it was cool to see the inside of the phone! Kudos to being this patient!

[@junwhang6293]

Thank you for the most entertaining video. That looks super hard. I think I will stick to disassembling my Note 2 which is easy and stay away from Note 5.

[@darkl3ad3r]

+Jun Whang I just switched to the Note 5 from a Note 2. I've already in one day of ownership had a situation where potentially I would be in big trouble because of a software hard lock requiring a battery pull. Uh oh only problem is I can't pull the battery. What a disaster design they went with on these phones. Glass backing to please the simpleton iphone fags, non-removeable battery, no sd-card. Why god why.

[@Methnerjacob]

+darkl3ad3r Apple hasn't done full glass backs for a few years now.

[@hammadbensardar]

Here i am with a dead panel note 5. and 8 years later your video is the perfect guide and still helping. i hope to replace the panel in one shot and not mess anything up. will get the screen tomorrow. i do have all the equipments, but damn that's one hard screen to replace. will share update on this comment tomorrow. lets see how i do it.

[@MattVance]

Awesome Video - Thanks for making! I'm convinced I'm not the guy to do this now... Thx!

[@sachdikahani7877]

Best video no waisting time just go to point love to watch

[@geeuk]

hi, just would like to say thanks for this video. i had no fast charge, usb disconnection pop up and very slow charging (5 hrs full charge).. i checked the cables, charger etc. cleaned the port still no go... than it was time for the hardest project for me... i used my air gun set at (130c) and i heated it for while dont rush guys.. if its not budging than dont force it use more heat than the glue just opens up.. always think and if its not sliding dont force it get the hot air give it more heat. For the front folded ribbons i only lifted bottom half and used tweezers to get the old ones slide out. also when removing the battery make sure you heat it well too because if you force it you could break the screen.. i used 2 old credit cards and it worked out excellent. now its working super again. thanks again.

[@youplaymenot]

Mr Gee UK I have the same problem your comment gave me the courage to at least try lol

[@geeuk]

Good to hear this mate but the problem started again (problem of buying aftermarket ebay components) so i need to do this project again! wish me luck :))

[@youplaymenot]

Good luck! I bought mine from Amazon for 14.99. I am hoping it is of a little bit higher quality than those sellers on ebay.

[@freakguitargod]

I had this phone years ago and battery got so inflated that the back plate and the screen broke the adhesive seal and all came apart and the screen and backplate both got cracked the same time because of the battery, i was afraid it would explode so i never turned it on again. Now in 2023 i now know how to take it apart i can finally fix it and save those thousands of pictures of my dog hopefully thank you!

[@seattlem8]

Hello Jerry. Great work. Thank you very much Just wondering whether it is possible to separate the screen from the front (not going through the whole process in the video) or not?!

[@MrKockabilly]

I'll buy another brand of smartphone and save myself from all these troubles. Thanks Jerry for this very informative video you enlightened many of us.

Thanks a lot man. you have no clue how much this video helped me out.

[@JerryRigEverything]

+Julian Plant No problem! Thanks for watching.

[@nayrnigle]

Very informative video sir!!! The website link that you posted above for the parts, are they OEM parts(i.e. front screen and back cover)? I will be doing this to my note 5 since I cracked my front screen.

[@lifeisinserthere]

Hey man thanks for the video, it was extremely clear and concise. I do have a couple questions that I was hoping you might be able to help me with. 1) I have a glitch on my Note 5 where the micro-usb port keeps mistakenly detecting a charger and/or VR headset, which turns my screen on constantly and sometimes even launches the Samsung Gear VR app. I heard this can happen as a result of using poor quality usb cables to charge the phone. Regardless, I was wondering if by disconnecting the micro-usb port or removing/replacing it completely the issue might be resolved? Then I could just charge it wirelessly and not have to worry about that seriously annoying glitch. 2) I also have a Note 4 (which I actually like better), but I broke the screen (it turns on but stays lit up black). I know however that everything else works with it. What are the chances I would be able to replace my Note 4 screen with the Note 5 screen? I'm assuming that this isn't possible if the screens are different between the models (I'm actually not sure if they are or not), but I was hoping you might be able to provide a definite answer. Obviously if I go with #1 I would continue to use the Note 5 whereas if #2 was a more plausible choice, I would use the Note 4 instead (but obviously with the Note 5's screen). Let me know if you have any advice, recommendations, solutions, opinions that would help. Any information at all would be a huge help, I'm sure. Thank you very much!!

[@marycurley441]

Hi Jerry. Very helpful video. Thank you. Did you post a link to the double sided tape? If not, could you? Thank you.

Great video Bro, I mainly work on iPhones because the android phones are tougher to fix usually. You make it look easy though.

[@2spears]

great work! love your videos.count me as your subscriber

[@metallic5spd]

hey man!! i bought the screen/glass from your links and put everything together as you show. when i try to see if it works before i put it all together (finishing the screws and gluing on back glass), i only get a blue LED light when i try to turn it on. A little vibration that it has turned on and then just the blue light. i dont get anything on the screen at all. the back button or the other button doesnt light up at all when i touch the home button. i took the board off and double checked all the ribbon cable connections. also, when i plug in the cord to charge it, i dont get anything. it doesnt vibrate or anything that its charging. your video was a HUGE help on taking it apart, thank you for that! also, i was able to get the glass off the LCD screen. i wasnt watching to make sure i didnt damage the old LCD b/c it was getting replaced but i feel i could have easily not hurt the LCD getting the glass off. Its only glued around the edge. a little heat and it started peeling off.

[@musicbymark]

Thanks for posting this elaborate video, it looks quite intimidating though, and I think for $14 on Amazon, I will go with the wireless chargers. It looks like too many things could go wrong on here and I imagine your warranty is voided as soon as you exhibit any evidence of tampering. I'm impressed with your skills and perseverance!

[@mikldude9376]

nice job sir , if i might ask , what is the copper sheet on the back of the screen(i think ?) , and does it effect anything if it gets damaged ? thank you for the video.

[@cowanhts]

I dropped my Note 5, not a hard drop at all - no visible damage. The screen went black, although the phone apparently continues to work with vibrations, alarm sounds, on - off etc. Is it always the case that the screen/digitizer needs replacing, or is the problem sometimes a different component or fix? Question for JerryRigEverything, or anyone who may have some insight. Thanks

[@yacinediagne6702]

Steve Chambers me too!!!

[@yacinediagne6702]

No, if it works normally, it's the screen that is broken

[@TsunaXZ]

My note 4 screen cost half or almost 60% of the phone itself.

[@sean8102]

This just happened to my Sister's note 5. She dropped it a very small distance ( and it had a case). It landed on its back, no visible damage to glass at all. However screen won't turn on, just stays black. All the local repair shops I've called want the same price for repair, $230. Told her I'd help her pick out a nice unlocked phone on amazon instead.

[@TsunaXZ]

Sean Placker For $230 you can buy a brand new Note 5

I have note 5 and the lcd inside cracked and the phone has no scratch it`s brand new it was a gift and now I don`t have enough money to fix it. Keep the awesome videos coming. Greetings

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

Hey you got an iSeasmo! I told you that thing is amazing. I have sanded mine down at the tip to make it thinner and not as sharp. I actually just got a new one this week.

[@JerryRigEverything]

x9x9x9x9x9 Ya! I like it. This one is getting a big rough around the edges, Ill have to give that sanding trick a try.

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

I'm glad you finally got one. I told you a few months back that they were awesome tools. The new one I got is the one on amazon with the weird x cut into it it seems to work just as well as the original. But yes sanding the edges really helps out. I actually make mine like a knife then use 600grit sandpaper to take the edge off so I don't slice flex cables.

[@allritythen]

on 2:24, what is the blue cable for? as i was removing mine, the plug ripped off the mother board!!

[@rivanbennevendo8653]

Zack! Awesome video. Very Helpful. One question. Is it possible to break the LCD without any damage to the Digitizer? Yesterday my Galaxy Note 5 started leaking this blue ink type stuff all over the inside of my screen and if I look closely I think i see a small crack but it's not in the glass. The glass looks completely fine. What do you think? Could it be a defect?

[@JerryRigEverything]

+rivan bennevendo *sometimes* samsung will allow you to warranty your phone as long as there are no physical cracks in the top glass. And you are in warranty. But ya, it sounds like your LCD (Amoled) is broken.

[@rivanbennevendo8653]

+JerryRigEverything that would be awesome. I'm heading to the service center now. Let's hope that's the case.

[@MrRChitty]

Awesome video. Thank you

[@SteveGergetz]

Well-done vid. QUESTION... I did a charge board swap, thought I was very careful with it, and I have done phone repairs (both on this Note5 and other modern phones) before with success. This time everything worked, including the screen display, but touch doesn't register. I've double-checked that all connectors are firmly in place. Is there a trouble-spot I should check more closely, or something I have overlooked? Or is it pretty sure that I wrecked the touch function of my screen assembly somehow?

[@devinjefferson7804]

Any recommended links for a replacement battery for the Note 5? You seem to only have put two parts in the description.

[@elchucho1958]

On some of the older phones, I remember seeing pressure tape to detect water damage. Does this phone have that as well?

[@ShunbunNoHi]

Just a FYI you can remove the front glass with just your finger nail, though my screen was broken for a few years but I figured I give it a try.

I have seen a video of a man who did a glass-only replacement on the front screen. It looked decently time consuming, but not overly complicated. I've been trying to see if i can replace the glass on my phone as it has a decent sized scratch on it and I want that new-phone look again.

At 2:16, there are two wires. A White one and a Blue one. When trying to remove the Blue one, the actual socket that is soldered to the motherboard broke off. Am I totally screwed now? Are replacement parts for this available? Can you buy just the sockets somewhere and have a PC Repair shop solder it back on? I've been searching and have been coming up empty handed. I'm sooo frustrated.

[@JerryRigEverything]

+Tyler Heer Dont stress too much. Put it back together. There is a good chance that it will still work just fine. Just try to put the socket back into place as best you can.

[@ems4ty]

+JerryRigEverything That's the problem. It broke off of the circuit board. The reason I opened it in the 1st place was because the LCD is cracked and won't display anything. I was able to power it off, but when I tried to turn it back on, it doesn't do anything now. Without a working a display, I'm really in the dark. Just got back from Best Buy, they $900 + Tax for a new phone. I just ordered a used a one on eBay for $400 and will keep this one for spare parts unless I can get it fixed. My biggest problem right now is the socket for the blue wire broke off the mother board. I tried to solder it back on, big mistake. Now I don't even have a good socket to work with. I see the contact points on the motherboard are still there. Bummer. FWIW, I've taken apart about 7 phones already and have never broken anything additional. That's why I wasn't afraid to crack this one open. 1st time for everything I guess.

[@JerryRigEverything]

Tyler Heer Those round wires arent that important. The phone should still turn on without them even in place. So something else is amiss besides that if the phone screen is still black.

[@TheJfp96u]

Was there any separation from the back of the phone and the side of the frame? or was it completely flush
