[@KAKAFU]

Thank you for the Video Clear Sharp and no Annoying loud Music..

[@matter0ni]

i dont even need to watch this for any reason, but i sat through the entire thing. camera quality is great, editing is great, volume is great, clarity is great, AND i learned that you can long tap on the camera to get option menu! fantastic video.

[@DavidSmithEverett]

Thanks! I used your video to replace my screen! :) I like that you go slowly... I was actually able to keep up on the reassembly and didn't have to pause too much on the dissassembly. I also like that you describe as you go what each part is. Thanks alot!

[@WJCarpenter]

I've watched a couple of different Nexus 5 teardown videos, and this one is by far the most professional and complete. I found it especially interesting to hear what the different parts and contacts are for, even though it's not really necessary for something like a screen replacement. Just interesting geek stuff. Thanks for making and publishing this video.

[@LE55ONS]

[@RoofRack2]

I don't know why your video does not come up top of the list - took me a little while to find it again - it's so good. I think I've used it about eight times now to change screens and batteries. I quite like the Nexus 5 and I've probably had 8 of them - I buy two old ones for £25 each and make one good one using your video - which explains absolutely everything. Thanks. Love the pace you go at, love the way you point out what every item is. Sound is clear and you are so close - it really is quite rare to come across a 'how to' video this good. Thanks again.

[@tenebrarum91]

You make your tutorial very carefully and detailled with all informations you need to do the work. That's very impressive and everyone should follow your example!

[@heinrichhasper8122]

I watched many teardown videos. Yours is the best!. Phantastic filmquality, macro.., clearest sound, best pronounciation. Thank you!

[@cesarnilsson1240]

I love you! I have never disassembled any phone, my nexus 5 died after a drop, I just disassembled it and reassembled it and now its fine, probably something with the battery-connectors, Big thanks!

[@darkbyte2005]

Just bought a Nexus 5, and this beats any manual. Again you do a fantastic explanation of how to disassembly/assembly a phone. Brilliant.. mate

[@cjf614]

Fixed a good few different phones using these tutorials and I have to say they are brilliant. Clear instructions all the way, best lessons on KZbin.

[@mattfontoura]

Thanks A LOOOOOT! I've replaced my motherboard, microphone and fixed vibration issues just with your tutorial. Most complete on youtube. You're a life savior!

[@TomFrohlichgeboren]

What a nice video. Your voice was all "calm down, you can get this" ... was a nice thing that someone like you bring me throw this disassembly! Thank you for saving my nexus 5

[@pedromarques2193]

Just wanted to thank you for your tutorial. I had smashed my screen and was reluctant on giving my device away for repair, considering it is not sold in my country. After seeing your tut, I felt confident enough to try it out myself and I currently have a fantastic Nexus 5 with an intact screen! Again, thanks so much for your videos :)

[@LE55ONS]

well done and thanks for the feedback :-)

[@sketchrrrr]

Thanks sir, recently bought a Nexus 5 used, and couldn't get reception at all. Tried everything, software fixes, different sims, etc. I was ready to return it to the seller. Watched this vid, and decided to give it a shot to see if the antenna at all damaged/disconnected. Low and behold one of the antennas was disconnected. Reconnected it, and the phone works now like a champ. Thanks to you I got it working =)

[@dr-clb]

Just finished using this to replace my wife's shattered screen after she dropped her phone - was wonderful and very helpful step by step. Worked perfectly! Hopefully the new screen lasts longer (also see the accompanying video on the screen replacement after breakdown).

[@tcoraini]

Great video, I just successfully replaced my screen and I have absolutely no experience with this kind of work. Just one thing that might help others: I bought my screen + frame from AliExpress, and at least mine did not come with the little frame where the earpiece is placed (see it at 20:15). So I also had to remove it from the old phone frame (using a screwdriver, really easy) and put in the new one (at first I didn't do it, and hence the earpiece did not work). Congratulations on the great video, and thank you a lot!

[@dgillies5420]

Best teardown of any device (laptop, tablet, nexus) I've ever seen! Thanks so much!!!

[@xxgg]

Thank you for the video, you absolutely make the best teardown video on KZbin. Clearest, high resolution, close up video! Oh yeah... this phone is a lot more complex than Galaxy Nexus to teardown. omg... after watching your vid, i could teardown galaxy nexus in like 10 minutes... as i had to tear it down multiple times. Keep up the good work.

[@adisafwan4425]

Hi there, if you still remember me, I am the guy with the nokia n8 problem and who thanked you for the galaxy note 10.1 tutorial and nowi am having the nexus 5 d821 32gb. I still have my n8 which I myself repaired it and galaxy note still going on good. Just incase if I had any problem with my nexus 5, which, so far, I have not experienced, becomes very helpful to me, your video should be a learning guide. Kuddos

[@LE55ONS]

:-)

[@markkrempasky723]

This is a great how to fix your Nexus 5 video. Virtually anyone can use it to replace their cracked scree or other components. I was able to follow along and replace my screen with zero prior experience.

[@kf0vc]

Good job Mark!

[@007999999999999999]

Dude, you saved my phone. It dropped into the toilet in the morning, after work I tore it down and left all parts dry for a day. After that, I built everything together again and it worked again. Thanks for this video!

[@JohanEBengtsson]

My Nexus 5 sat in snow for 3 days - just minor spots on the screen, after drying it in a bag with rice for a few days.

[@RaymondAndrews55]

Used this video to replace a the screen with screen and frame assembly. Of all the videos I watched to do the job this was by far the best thanks.

[@georgesabapathy2508]

Great video, really helped me out fixing my shattered screen. Really comprehensive, one of the best repair guides I've seen. Thanks!!

[@TonyWolf1O]

You are unbelievable i love your videos there are really helpful.I would love to see an lg g2 teardown. Its one of the phones that there is no video on KZbin.Really great work keep it up!

[@cellphonedepot2478]

Best tutoring video ever seen with clear zoom at each point.

[@radovanivanko6545]

I ´ve done it for the first time in my life. Such a great and simple instructions step by step. Thank you very much. My phone works again.

[@cmdr_scotty]

Used this to fix my wife's phone. Thank you for the epic how to video (also loved how you detailed what each of the components on the motherboard do)

[@radiognome1971]

A great big thank you. Best Nexus 5 teardown I found on the web, and next to my laptop lies a restored specimen!! But you must have a magic screwdriver and plastic knife, seeing how easy things come apart in your video.

[@camcasa]

I just saved my nexus after a shock + condensation by dissassembling it and putting the pieces back together, thanks to your teardown video. Thank you !

[@notumang]

I find your video exceptionally detailed and properly guided, covering small aspects. Thanks for putting in so much effort. After watching this, my NEXUS 5 is happy and comfortably relaxing ;D

[@bubblet321]

Very detailed nexus 5 teardown. Helped me replace my 3.5mm jack since some grime got in there and couldn't put my headphones in. This helped me splendidly. Thanks!

[@tmnara]

Great Job, very clear, slow and easy to follow. I was able to replace a complete bezel replacement very easily with only a few pauses. Thank you again.

[@GeorgeDrivakos]

Thank you very much for your great instructions!! Very analytic and easy to follow !!!! I just changed my broken screen with a new one with great success! Now I have a brand new nexus 5, thanks to your excellent work.!!! :)

[@foxhotel3938]

I find your voice very relaxing. Also this video is very detailed, going at an ideal pace for me.

[@Thebriansnyder]

Thank you so much. I thought it would've been fairly straight forward replacing the screen. I didn't realize so much was involved. Fortunately, with your step by step instructions it was a success. Thank you.

[@alwayshumble6827]

Great Great Great, on every tear down I am eager to know where and which are the antennas, most reviewers misses, it is shown here in every detail.

[@colinbontemps187]

Thanks a lot, I managed to give a second life to my Nexus 5. Very detailed video that helped a lot.

[@tarunn99able]

Great great great video, I already done a repair job on my s2 by ur video help, saved more than 1500 bucks thank u u r great

[@danatwood9677]

OUTSTANDING JOB Sir!!!! Your speed, detail and quality of video is tremendous ! Your knowledge of the components added a very enjoyable experience and level of interest for me. The Amazing technology of these devices is incredible and your explanation was also helpful in understanding the process and added some level of comfort for me in completing the replacement. I am actually willing to send you some $ via paypal if you have an account. Thanks for taking the time to do this video!

[@selimcanbayrak7107]

Thank you for the brilliant video. All the parts clearly shown and explained in detail. It has made changing my screen & frame enjoyable.

[@utopianit]

Thank you so much for this video! Very well shown and explained. Best Nexus 5 tear down video on the net. Managed to replace my Nexus 5 screen and it's all working nicely. Cheers.

[@SamuelHollandsh]

Awesome description and good job. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I've replaced my screen twice and this time ordered the frame & LCD/digitizer assembly. This video is one of the best I've seen.👍😊

[@dessierascal321]

This video was extremely helpful. My first time attempting to fix a phone and this video was extremely useful. Thanks a million and Kudos to the quality guidance. Thank you!!!

[@KirkHarnack]

Wonderfully educational and accurate. I replaced my own front glass (plus display, of course) and this video was absolutely instrumental in my getting it done. Thank you for such a fine-quality lesson and example.

[@sami67sosa]

Replaced my broken Nexus 5 screen myself using this great video!

[@markogrego]

Great step-by-step video, thanks ever so much for enabling me to change my screen with ease, couldn't and wouldn't have even attempted to do it without your video, thank you!

[@aarongoodwin2579]

One of the best, in a sea of half-steppers. Awesome video. Thank you Sir!

[@bhbancst]

This is awesome video. I had to replace my broken glass completely, I bought the screen by ~$100 and went through this video and everything fall into place. Just he could actually mention the battery needs to be handled carefully otherwise it might cause damage and sparks. Those who does not have the heating machine (shown) for removing the glass, you can use any kind of heating source (I used my burner's flame from little height) to loose the adhesive, and it worked ...

[@rahilarious]

1st time i watched complete disassembly video....great work... awesome

[@ScGendo]

A car run over my Nexus 5, replaced the screen without drama and now all works fine! Thanks for the video.

[@joechurchill8055]

Thanks so much. Used this video to replace my screen. Really appreciate how you described everything in depth. Including how screw lengths are the same ("Don't worry") and how to pry up on double-side taped components without damaging.

[@projectgenius]

I broke my screen last week and got a new one. Your video was perfect, thanks man!

[@LE55ONS]

:-)

[@lieocc]

[@emmamurray2222]

Fantastic, thanks! Couldn't have fixed my phone without this

[@RyanSmithPhoto]

This was great. I had a successful screen replacement thanks to this video.

[@eduardopatricio]

Brilliant video. I replaced my screen and learned a lot about my phone's internals. Thank you, sir!!

[@Schizophonic12]

just want to say thanks, screen cracked and followed your tutorial and was awesome. Only minor comment to add is the ear piece module, you need to take the plastic casing around for it to be transferred onto a new front screen.

[@mndx89]

Great video!!! I was wait for nexus 5 teardown from you! Thanks!

[@mattheo7634]

man i would make another account only for give u 2 thumbs up! Your instruction are neat and your tone of voice is dope! My Nexus got crushed under a 50+ kmh volvo station wagon under my very eyes.... the screen was destroyed by the fragments,i litterally had to remove grain of glass. the hairdrier is a must. 170$ was the price from a professional, 1 hr of curse and 35$ was my solution thanks to this video and Aliexpress thank you.

[@stimulationii]

amazing video. I got chills of both fear and excitement as you took it apart. yes, I'm a nerd. Thank you for in depth look!

[@iemvos1429]

[@ScarySquirrel]

Fantastic video, managed to change my Nexus 5 screen in about 30 minutes earlier. Never done anything like this with a phone before.

[@vanisshen4467]

Thank you very much, I just replaced the screen for my friend! The Nexus 5 is miles easier to repair than iPhone's I've done.

[@virgilioguevara9163]

Awesome thank you! I replaced my own screen following your video, excellent Job !!

[@DanielDAmico]

Wow....un video fantastico complimenti.....ora che ci ho visto a "nudo" il nexus 5 posso dire di aver notato una enorme somiglianza di costruzione con il mio LG Optimus Dual (p990). Sei un grande!!!

[@NikyRipy]

lesson è il migliore :D mi sto attrezzando anche io per fare un mini studio come il suo.

[@LE55ONS]

***** do I sound like a girl?

[@NikyRipy]

***** No, why?

[@LE55ONS]

[@LeonardoBaez]

[@Jjengering]

hello, thank you for the fantastic video, i currently have a broken nexus 5 screen but i cant find any parts to replace my screen and housing ( i have a white nexus 5 ) with the glossy black side frame instead of soft touch like the black model, where can i find the part i need? thanks i am also in the uk, london, if you know any places i can get hold of that part quickly that would be fantastic

[@LE55ONS]

I've had a look and I don't see any for sale at the moment, but give it a few weeks and there should be some on the market

[@Jjengering]
