Repairing MrMobile's Busted Motorola Razr 5G - Feat. Michael Fisher

@TheMrMobile goes "into the fold", but I go inside the fold in an effort to repair his folding Razr smartphone that not even Motorola offered a repair on.

Every time I pull the RAZR out of my pocket, I'm grateful anew. Thanks again for the excellent attention to detail (and the dogged determination in parts sourcing) it took to resurrect my favorite flip phone, Hugh!

Is there not a case for that phone? like i get that cases can be annoying with bigger phones but they can be VITAL in keeping a phone safe. I have a clone otterbox defender style case for my Galaxy S21 Ultra, it may not be an Otterbox but a similarly designed case is better than no case at all imo.

How the hell was nobody in the States repairing these? This was one of the easiest repairs I’ve seen on this channel.

[@sohamghosh4815]

Probably because no one has seen one before and they don’t want to mess with it because if they break something during a repair such as the flexible oled, they can’t get parts.

Hint when dealing with shattered displays . Use some packing tape and cover the screen with it before trying to lift it

Use Kapton tape. It's stronger and doesn’t leave a mark.
