Galaxy S7 Reassembly - Screen Repair - Charging port fix - Battery replacement

2016-03-15
today we're going to reassemble my torn down galaxy s7 etrade supply and notice that I destroyed my old screen during the removal process and they were kind enough to send me out a replacement so thank you very much for that before I put this phone back together let's just appreciate for one quick second how thick this aluminium frame is and if you remember one of my complaints about the Nexus 6p was that none of the screws went into metal if you look at this s7 all of the screws go into metal it is one very well-built phone the only downside is it sent it's glued shut it's kind of hard to work on so let's get going like always replacement tools and replacement parts like screens and charging ports will be linked down in the video description below the fingerprint scanner will slide through the frame and then sit down in that little slot that was built for it the charging port also needs to slip through the frame before we can put the screen back on push the charging port down into little slot itself at the bottom of the phone making sure the buttons wrap around to the front side there are two screws on the charging port and then make sure the buttons are sitting down inside of the little groove that they're made for the back button and the menu button there should be a little bit of leftover residue on the buttons themselves so they'll stick down and hold themselves tight now some replacement screens will come with adhesive built into the panel other screens require double-sided tape to be set down inside of the frame you can buy professional adhesive I would recommend doing that if you're going to do this repair for customers here is a replacement screen I'm going to remove the protective plastic and then slip the screen connector through the frame making sure that the connector is not bent or pinched it all inside of the frame itself I'm going to use the earpiece to help line up the slot on the top of the screen with the phone and then the home button is well on the bottom making sure that it all sits tight down inside of the frame it's a perfect fit now we can work on the headphone jack slip that down inside of the groove and then put one screw on the side of that as well now remember that the charging port does connect to the bottom side of the motherboard so clip that in and then you can set the motherboard down into place making sure not to pinch any of the other connectors underneath the motherboard because we will need to plug those in once all those connectors are on the right side of the phone we can take the fingerprint scanner and press that down into frame same thing with the power button and the screen itself push the front-facing camera down into his little slot same thing with the earpiece and the front sensors and then the volume buttons on the side also get plugged into the mainboard there are two wire cables that rest the charging port and the motherboard so get those down into place sitting down inside that little groove and then we can take the battery it's gonna be the last thing that we plug in and push that into the motherboard we can't test the phone at this point which is a good idea make sure everything's functional before we put the back tape and put the back glass back down everything is good we're going to turn the phone back off again flip it around and then put all the back plastics on I'm going to start down here with the loudspeaker set that into place making sure that I don't pinch any of the wire cables in the wrong spot then the wireless charger goes on and the top plastic piece and there's a bunch of screws around the backside get a little screw it into place then we have the funky golden band-aid we're going to put that back down into place if anyone has any idea what this is for please leave a comment down below there's even some pre drawn brackets for it I have no idea why they would put a gold sticker on there there is professional adhesive available for the rear backs I will link that down in the video description below and everything is good if you have any questions leave them down in the comments subscribe if you haven't already and follow me on Instagram and Twitter for behind the scenes and future projects and one big last thank you to eat trade supply for sending me out the replacement screen thank you so much for watching hope to see you around
