Motorola Moto G100 / Edge S Disassembly Teardown Repair Video Review

[@glaucofulco]

Congratulations! It's the best video about Moto G100 that I watched. Thank You!

[@PBKreviews]

Thank you and you're welcome 😀

[@beto12345]

I usually use my phones for around 4-6 years and try to fix them myself. I really like this Motorola, and this video is perfect as a guide for the future. The only thing I'm worried about is the screen. Thanks for share this procedure.

[@PBKreviews]

No problem. Usually they sell the screens with the midframe installed so all you would need to do is move all your parts and motherboard over to the new frame and screen assembly. You can check for parts on mobiledefenders.com

[@beto12345]

@@PBKreviews Oh thanks, I'm not sure but think I buyed parts from them for my old XT1575 through Ebay, a while ago. I'm going to save that link.

[@completelymindfucked]

Why the screen in particular? Seems as hard to reach as almost everything, in this phone.

[@tomzpl]

same for me, sd870 is quite powerful and 8gb ram should be more than enough for few years of lagless experience. ...Unless some new technology that significantly increases battery life comes along...

[@Анна-ь6ш7ц]

Please tell me,what is better in the repair (disassembled and easier to replace),this phone Motorola g100 or Motorola g60? Thanks.

[@willamesbarros]

Your explanations are perfect, you won another post on the channel. Congratulations on the channel.

[@themadatheist1976]

Thinking on getting this for my new main since it has the specs I need. Nice to have the cables running under the battery so if the battery puffs up it doesn't put strain on the cable connecters. My Redmi Note 9S had them run over the battery and 1 connecter broke so I had to repair it. I didn't do a good job and my mic and mic-in on the 3.5mm jack don't work so I have to go back in to either redo to 40pin connecter or check to see if I disturbed a cap. That or it's a ribbon cable issue. At least I didn't re-glue the rear glass back on.

[@corktail7900]

Thank you very much for this video! I successfully replaced the usb/headphone jack board because the ports on the old one got too loose. Props to Motorola for making the back cover out of plastic, it was very easy to remove and the screws inside weren't over-tightened. I'm definitely running this phone into the ground and might replace the battery in 2 or 3 years.

you're welcome

Thanks a lot! I was able to replace my phone's display with the help of this video.

Thanks! 👍

[@franciscosuarez8192]

to remove the load center I don't need to remove anything from the camera, right? Good explanation

[@MrXeha]

Great video. Helped me replace my battery. Unfortunately, the battery wasn't the problem, I think the phone is bricked.

[@jordanl4279]

Can you tell what the problem is you are having which you thought was caused by the battery? Mine for example randomly shuts down at any givin battery percentage. And after that, it can only be rebooted while a charger is plugged in

[@gogolmagic]

hello, can you please, how is the quality of the material?

[@PBKreviews]

Hi the quality is good on this phone, the frame is sturdy and everything else is made of good quality. Keep in mind the G200 is being released now as well.

[@BGKarthus]

@@PBKreviews Hello PBK, I don't think G200 is that solid.. I heard that SD 888 have heat issues, I still prefer moto g100.

[@Ale-gz7ef]

Do I have to glue or heat it again when i want to Close it?

[@PBKreviews]

Hi, yes you would need to apply new pre cut adhesive for the phone or replace it with a replacement battery door that comes with the adhesive pre installed. There is a listing on ebay for it if you search moto g100 battery door. Also you can watch this video if you want to use your own adhesive: kzbin.info/www/bejne/imXMmoOLfrJqY7s

[@MuhammadUsman-lx6ye]

hi, can i just take the battery off for replacement without taking the other bits off.

[@lucasbrunini573]

Hello, do you know which pins should I shorten to access EDL (test point) mode with this phone? Im facing a brick issue and I cant find a way to boot into EDL to repair my phone. Thanks.

[@karimahmed5443]

Well done bro

[@PBKreviews]

Thanks!

[@brunothomas2746]

Tanks so much

[@KP-bm1is]

Hello, how do i exactly change the display ? My display broke and it has to be changed so i can use the phone. In the video u only go down to a certain point. What do I exactly do after that ?

[@PBKreviews]

Once you have access to the screen cable, all that is left is to heat the front of the phone where the screen is, and pry the old screen off from the frame. Then apply new adhesive and re apply the new screen, making sure to put the cable back through the opening in the mid frame and then re assemble the phone.

[@aless7125]

@@PBKreviews thanks a lot, first time ever repairing my phone myself. I just bought a new screen with a new LCD panela and new side cover. Because I just have to switch the parts to the others one which ist easier. Also my LCD panel Broker. Thanks a lot tho !

really good video.

[@caesarsalad9658]

Does this have cricket support? On the products webpage it says "Coming soon: Compatible & supports 4G, VoLTE."

[@PBKreviews]

For the most part, it looks to support cricket. It has support for 3 of the 4 bands cricket uses.

[@vasilelucian6866]

The frame of this phone is plastic or aluminium?

[@PBKreviews]

aluminum alloy

[@pimpinal004]

[@boniomj1]

Hello, thanks to this video, I replaced the screen in my Motorola moto g100 5G, but after assembling and gluing the phone, I noticed that even though the phone reports "Turbo Power device connected", the phone does not charge, what could I have done wrong? or what should I do now to make it charge like before, that in about 20 minutes I had almost 70% Please help

[@PBKreviews]

Hi. Hmm, just make sure all the cables are connected properly, including the coaxial cables/wire cables. If no luck, might be a defective sub board/charger port board. Also make sure you have the correct model version sub board. For example after the model number there is a -1 or -2 etc. Different region versions have different antenna contacts and different charging chips which may cause you to have issues.

[@rabizack5491]

Hello can make a video about how to install cooling system in your smartphone

[@PBKreviews]

Hi, usually the phones already come with their own designed forms of cooling. You would need to greatly alter or modify the phone hardware to do anything else.

[@rabizack5491]

@@PBKreviews my phone have aluminum frame .which means I can cool down through the aluminum frame right? And my phone back panel is plastic i think cooling plastic back panel is a waste of cooling right? While plastic is not a thermal conductor Cooling the back panel OR cooling the aluminum frame which do you think is more effective and faster cooling?

[@PBKreviews]

@@rabizack5491 The aluminum frame would be better, but the phones usually already use the frame for cooling. They have either copper tapes and thermal paste or pads and some have graphite or graphene films which transfer the heat from the components to the frame and the frame exhausts the heat out of the phone.

[@rabizack5491]

@@PBKreviews yes . But when I am gaming my phone getting lot hotter and it's reducing the speed of the processor . That's why I need to cool down my phone and iam using poco x3

[@beto12345]

​@@rabizack5491 I'm going to meddle here, what I did was adhere a Peltier plate with a heatsink on the back with an adapter to USB (in my case type B). Is not that hard to make and don't need to modify your phone... but is a bit bulky

[@ErageFTWin]

This phone is a nightmare to repair, i've repaired a few phones before but the screws are so tight it's impossible to remove them. Tried few different screwdrivers, managed to get a few out, but i've got about 6 left and im trying all the tricks in the book. Used tape, used rubber, instant glueing the screwdriver on it, having a firm grip, still not being able to remove them. >=[ how safe is it to bore in the screw? I'm running out of ideas what to do.

[@PBKreviews]

Really? shouldn't be that difficult unless someone glued those screws in lol. Worst case if you strip them, you would have to drill into the heads with a drill bit to break off the heads but then you wouldn't be able to screw a new screw in after when assembling.

[@spas8060]

Amazing video 🎉🎉 Can you maybe help me i changed my moto g 100 display i dont have cellular connection now maybe you have some ideas ? Tnx in advance

[@PBKreviews]

make sure all the cables are properly in place and also the motherboard is seated properly and the plastic cover over the motherboard and speaker assembly are screwed down in place since those have antenna lines drawn on them which need to touch the motherboard to give it signal.

[@QueenBiah]

How fix biometric sensor? Change it

[@PBKreviews]

You would have to pry the screen off from the frame after disassembling the phone, since the flex cable for it is routed through the midframe and to gain access to removing it after you disconnect it from the main board, you need to remove the screen as well. However this poses a high risk of damaging or breaking the screen.

[@cmraz]

Appreciate the vid. Realize this is very old, but using it as i'm replacing screen, backplate, fingerprint sensor on my phone... HOW THE FUCK DO YOU NOT STRIP THE GOD DAMN SCREWS

[@PBKreviews]

if you use the correct type n size of screwdriver, it shouldn't strip. if you have already stripped a bit, try going on size larger and pressing in while turning

[@michasygidus5627]

I have problem with my moto g100. I replaced the screen. Phone was not use for 5-6 months. And now when i want to power on is black screen. When plug original charger, white led flashlight blink one or two times. Couple hourse on charger nothing change. I checked all cable connections. Today while holding the power button and plugging in the charger, three times the screen showed the Motorola logo for a second and then nothing. A moment ago, when connected to the charger, the white LED flashed 6 times. Someone can help?

[@PBKreviews]

Might be a battery issue, try getting a different battery and plug it in and see if it fixes the problem.

[@rrxhim]

wow... G100 is more nice start booting animation.... not like Edge S just M Logo only no think shield logo one😌

[@humbertomarquez6486]

My motorola g100's battery inflated, I don't know why, I previously had another motorola and it didn't happen.

[@PBKreviews]

From my experience, I find it rare for motorola batteries to inflate easily so might just be a one off. Sometimes from heat or drops they can go bad.

[@humbertomarquez6486]

I bought the new battery but I feel like I have to press a lot to get it into place and by doing that I'm bending a plate at the top and it still doesn't fit.@@PBKreviews
