iPhone X Back Glass Replacement (How to fix the back for $15)

[@MrCrzychris]

You’ve inspired me to spend $300 to have somebody else do it thank you

[@mrfroggo64]

what happened lol

[@richie3394]

Speak fucking English. We don’t speak nerd and know what a Bx zero bit is. Call it the “silver thing.” that’s what happened.

[@daniellewatson6315]

Same 😒

[@rickbold9337]

Yup

[@Retrocaus]

The phone is only worth 200 tho lmao

[@chrisflynn7250]

Very nice video Matt! I was hoping that you didn't have to take the entire phone apart to replace the back glass, but I guess there is no other way? Thanks!

[@RealWorldReview]

You can try, but with the risk of melting/severely damaging the battery, board, and rear cameras, I highly recommend a full/partial teardown

[@agoogleuser9025]

@@RealWorldReview what about just using a hairdryer just like when replacing the battery with really crusty pull tab adhesives

[@mroverdose14]

​@@agoogleuser9025I used a bit of alcohol. Works really good for me. I'm going to try again cause I didn't take out the logic board and camera which reduces the amount of heat I was willing to use. Will take those out and go in with the heat cause with out the higher heat this repair is nigh impossible

[@rigxqp]

Just finished repairing my iPhone X I had sitting in a drawer it had both the screen and back glass broken I started on Saturday and finished today thanks a lot for this tutorial just turned it on a few seconds ago everything works fine even cleaned my front camera it used to be dusty not anymore. (This was my first time taking an iPhone apart).

[@ni5ga]

Same with me.

[@donnieaugustine8176]

Bro where are you located I’ll send you my phone and money 💰💰😂all jokes aside very informative video. I’m one the few who watched till the end. Gained a lot Of knowledge thank you. 🙏🏽

[@nathanm9656]

I followed your instructions. Thanks for the help. I got the new back on and everything looks good but the NFC doesn't work. Everything else seems functional so far. Do you know what could have caused the NFC to not work? I know I plugged in all the cables--but if I were to go back inside to check, what should I look for?

[@RealWorldReview]

KZbin tells me that 50% or less of you watch past the 1:34 mark, which tells me either you quit, or you're skimming too much and missing key information! Gotta watch the whole video (besides sped up stuff, that's up to you)

[@convoludedduded5086]

youtube is the kid who reminds the teacher we didn't get homework

[@zapole]

That is quite risky, especially the wireless charging makes me a bit anxious

[@Dolly-Days]

Got clamps? haha Great repair, and having that many clamps is handy. I had to give you a hard time about them haha.

[@itsalifestyle2987]

Would you do this for a customer, or are the risks too high?

[@gavinmorey6449]

I don't see why you have to disassemble the entire phone. Maybe I'm missing something?

[@amy9286]

because heating up the back of the phone to unglue the glass could damage the inside (battery especially is very risky)

[@RealWorldReview]

If you kill the board, battery, cameras, and such, you're not going to be happy. I always remove those three. As you do more of these, keeping the charging port in is easier to do.

[@satchrules101]

No wonder they charge 300 $ to fix that ..

[@darkdaddydirty2504]

And I gladly paid it after seeing this 😂

[@WordofMotivation2023]

Right , this is so tedious, no thank you

[@Waxkasta]

Where? In USA

[@TheBanjoShowOfficial]

of course, they intentionally make it as difficult as possible so that you come to them to give them more money for their inherently-flawed design. More horizontal integration. You give them money for the phone that will break easily- they offer the solution- you accept the offer because you have literally no other option unless you want to risk bricking your own $1000 picture box.

[@ruben126]

A hair dryer can get enough heat to remove the back?

[@RealWorldReview]

Never tried

[@convoludedduded5086]

it should work. just play around with the heat and flow rate. I think I'm going to do that. Did you do it though? wondering how it went if you did

[@christaylor4786]

Maybe a high end one. Typically heat guns get a lot hotter. Used to be a repair guy and I did indeed try with a dryer when I first started but mine didn't work so I got a heat gun

[@RealWorldReview]

Plus they’re like $15+. Not much for a better repair tool

[@aar5555]

instructions unclear now i have an puffed bomb

[@gillesbkf4315]

okay, im skilled with my fingers, but im not ready to do that lol

[@christaylor4786]

That's what she said

[@marketglance8278]

Apple will charge you $250, it shouldnt be glass, plastic would be better but we couldnt have that on a holy iphone right

[@RealWorldReview]

Will they? Pretty sure it's over $500 unless you actually got it replaced and that's what they charged you

[@ummhamzab231]

hmm I think its going to cost me more than $15 to fix it.... I have to buy all the tools first and then follow your instructions and then buy a new phone because I stuffed it.

[@progressivetax4653]

Lol, did you just remove wireless charger strip hahahaha

[@amy9286]

thank you for this video… but that’s not happening 👍 good luck to anyone who tries this, i hope you have money to get a new phone lmao

[@antonio638]

I just put a cheap slick wrap in the back. :/

[@Vapourwear]

Right, so...just invest $1200 in Tools, time, frustration, and broken parts and you can fix this for $15.00. 🤣

[@RealWorldReview]

Heat gun is $20. Razor is $15-$20. Back glass is $15-$20. Glove is $20-$30 and glasses are $10. Toolkit is $40-$60. Doesn’t look like $1200, but I’m more than happy to sell them to you for $900 lol. With the exception of the heat gun and back glass, the rest are investments that will last pretty much forever.

[@dmaxey138]

Fml

[@albamels]

Nice job iphone after iphone 6 u cannot replace anything yourself anymore theres no way a average person will ever be able to do this

[@jrrivas2]

There is no need to take all the phone apart.

[@RealWorldReview]

Correct, just don't tear anything and you'll be fine

[@Tudalouu]

Wtf lol
