Hello, Unfortunately my front glass broke. Touch display and everything still works. That's why I didn't want to replace the entire digitizer, just the glass. Has anyone of you ever done this? It would be important to know whether the entire display is covered with adhesive or only part of...

I have a problem. I need to change SD cards (just a storage upgrade, it was supposed to be...) and have great troubles getting the SD card sled/holder out of its slot. I already destroyed my fingernails, tried both short nails and long nails. Still hurts. I wedged a thin slippery plastic sheet...

Hello, I live in EU, and my S10+ is the SM-G9750, Hong Kong version. Does anybody know if the screen is compatible to the other EU versions (which most repairing shops will have?) According to https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Android/Galaxy-S10-Screen/IF416-001?o=1 the same part is compatible with...

I've been looking at this question for the past few years and I never found a legitimate document/website where it was explicitly told that by tripping KNOX we void the general warranty of the device. Only thing I saw was people saying it does. I think that people misjudged what the KNOX...

Hi everyone, Recently noticed that my battery life hasn't been as it good as it use to be, so i downloaded the OnePlus diagnostic app from apkmirror and sure enough battery health is around 75%. So I'm looking to replacing the battery. Just wondering if any one has recommends for replacement...

Hello, I root a lot of phones and would like to have a way of unbricking my phone if it's hard bricked. By "hard bricked" I mean a phone that will not boot into Download/fastboot mode nor recovery mode. I know OnePlus has a special MSM download tool for this but what about other phones? I know...

I have a phone that has developed the issue of the other parties sound volume being very low. I have performed a Factory Reset and the problem remains. This is not an illusion as we have two other phones that do not exhibit this problem. I have found no solution so I need the help of a hardware...

Let's have a thread for HTC repair companies. Just post whatever info you have. Reason why I started this topic might be a bit selfish. I have a HTC 10 and tried to get the battery replaced. The official center quoted me 1000+ EUR repair fee, for a battery. Long story short, I realized that...

After using this tool you will have the chinese rom installed. (H2OS = Hydrogen OS) Instructions how to use can be found: HERE There is only one difference. To boot into Qualcomm download mode you need to press Volume up + Volume down when phone is powered off. There is also a guide on...

Hey y’all So my phone fell two weeks ago from about 3 feet after a bad hand off as I was showing a pic to someone. It already had fallen and only suffered a crack along the outer screen from the first fall, but this second drop cracked the inner screen and rendered the lcd useless. I was...

So by complete freak accident I copied over a TWRP backup of my mom's Galaxy S6 which was running an S8+ port ROM, and I restored it to my S8+ by accident - TWRP restored that backup to my S8+ and obviously I was unable to boot, but also my EFS & baseband was ruined because it tried to restore...

Does anyone notice worse battery life on .161? I had my phone repaired, because I damaged the speaker (they actually changed my speaker, display and phone base - I don't know why). I get a noticeable lower battery life. The phone got updated to .161 right after I got it from Huawei's service...

A little hint: we better use the wireless charging all the time, the USB-C port - if it breaks - is no more fixable, it used to be a $15 replacement part: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHzmFPoZbCA

So, my girlfriend dropped her S7 edge a couple times, and the screen is pretty ****ed up, although perfectly usable. the first drop has broken only the glass, but the last one broke a small part of the display as well, so I thought I could look up replacement procedures. It turns out that they...

Hi, I had G935F which has mainboard issue. I've given it to tech. to change mainboard but now my phone seems G935FD which is not true and IMEI numbers can't get cellular signal. Is it possible to change IMEI to my original one and get the phone back to G935F? The phone is in OREO firmware and...

Hi, I have a philosophical question. My situation is as follows: my previous laptop worked for around 2.5 Years bevor USB ports broke and other things started to fail. the final straw was that the screen cracked. after that, i bought a Yoga 700 for around 800$ which worked for also around 2,5...

Hello, As the title says, after multiple flashes of the kdz rom and other via twrp, I got the error message when inserting the sim card, that the phone was not allowed to connect to the mobile network. By dint of searching, I saw that the two imei were at 0. So I followed the various tutorials...

I changed screen assembly to my boys Honor 8. All went well. Not so nice job BTW. I tried that the screen was working but didnt tested the touch. I reassembled it and noticed that the touch is not regonized. Does somebody have any clue or is the assembly just broken? :confused::(:crying:

Hi guys, has anyone of you tried changing the front glass without digitizer and display? In disassembly videos I can only see people changing the whole thing. Also, do you think I can manage to repair the front glas as well as the USB port with just an iron instead of a hot air blower (and...

Hi everyone, i broke the screen of my phone (mi A2 lite) :( The only video that i could find to replace my screen was this one : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRE6Dc93zvY (Redmi 6 Pro is another name for the a2 lite) The screen seems to be just below the motherboard and it seems extremely...

To preface what happened, I will give a short story. About 4 days ago, I tried to Frankenstein my V30S on March, Oreo, US998 build to the LS998 in order to improve the lacking functionality/compatibility of the modem on custom ROMs to make my Sprint connection work. This attempt would result in...

If you've owned your Nexus for a while, you'll start to notice that your headphone jack may become spotty, finicky, or no longer work. This is caused by the lack of a proper connector on the motherboard for the headphone jack module. The pins of the headphone jack end up rubbing up against the...

Like so many folk, the band on my Moto360 Sport tore. Pain in the ass. I got it fixed/replaced once, but of course, it tore again. No such luck the second time around. But I love my watch. Its not perfect, but I love it. So with traditional fixes out the window, I moved to non-traditional...

Recently I posted about a problem others had as well - when under 50% ish battery, my HTC 10 would randomly reboot, and that would loop until it was plugged in. Once plugged in and fully rebooted, the battery % reading would vary from where it was before to 1%. Also, certain apps' data or cache...

My brother's Axon 7 has what I can only assume to be blown speakers. Does anyone know of where one can find replacement speakers? Cheers.

Hello! Unfortunately, just some days ago my 5X died. Was on the table, it rebooted itself and then it was stuck in a bootloop. I wasn't even able to use the recovery, and none of the 4-cores mod worked to help me get some of my files. I even opened it, disconnected the battery and reconnected...

I broke the screen of my X Compact and replaced it myself. I used a replacement where screen and frame were already glued together. However, now the fingerprint reader is not working anymore. The phone seems like there is no fingerprint reader installed at all. The system (settings and diagnosis...

I'm planning to transfer the gasket from the original cover to the replacement back cover that I bought. For some reason, the replacement doesn't come with it.

Hi. After using this method to fix dozens of G4's and 5X's, I bumped on one bootlooping V10. As there's no modified kernels that would boot V10 on only 4 cores, I present to you: V10 kernel that will resurrect your bootlooping beauty! Requirements and Guide: 1: Working ADB and Fastboot 2A: If...

Crossposting from my reddit thread: Help me find the correct display So a month ago, i broke the Display on my 3T. I visited a local Repair Shop here in Germany, and had it fixed. After I got it back, I noticed a strange bootup but that wasn't all of it. Somehow the gestures didn't work either...

Problem: Booting to unsafe device screen, recovery and fastboot not working, message "Your device is booting now..." I could not find a way to turn it off or do a real hard reset aka power cycle. No button combination would turn it off. It always booted by it self. What you did wrong: TWRP is...

I got a non-working G4 (H815) from a friend - it doesn't start at all. He said it was bootlooping for some time and then it died completely. It is not in warranty anymore and it has SN starting with 505. When I connect it to the PC, it appears as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" or qhsusb_bulk in...

Heey everyone, My phone has some serious problems. I'm talking about percentage not showing correctly, because of that the phone will go off at random. As the percentage that is shown (for example 43%) is actually a lot less (it's actually 0%). And when I try to turn it on, the phone must be...

Hey! So my OP3 fell down and to my surprise, the glass broke. Digitizer, Fingerprint and capacitive Buttons are still perfectly fine. It's basically just the glass. I first thought I could repair that myself easily, and ordered a replacement one. Well, turns out it is way harder to just replace...

Hi there, I am having some issues with my Z3C and thinking of doing a repair myself. A few months ago the first issue started, still present: the bottom bar buttons (back, home, apps) require extra pressure. This was probably my fault as I might have bent it a bit during cleaning, resulting in...

My IMEI shows 350000000000006. Most of the advice I've seen on this is to flash the stock firmware. I've tried this multiple times and it hasn't worked for me. I don't have a backup of the EFS partition that I can restore, but I do know what the actual IMEI is. I'm not really sure where to go...

Let me start off by saying, I am a looooong looooong time Sony fanboy. I have the following mobiles - X10, S, Z, ZR, L, Z1, Z2, Z1c, Z3, Z3c, Z1tab, Z2tab, Z5, XZ, along with Smartbands SWR10 and SWR12, Smartwatch 2 and 3. Out of these more than half, I got from Sony Mobile, Sweden, as I...

Hey, So yesterday it happened and I dropped my Oneplus 3T. It didn't break, but it is scratched up so bad that I want to repair the display glass. I've never done something like this before. So you think a noob like me could try this himself or should I get an expert to do it? And if so, how...

So, i had the bootloop issue happening to me on my S/N 506 MB. From what I've gathered, 506 means that its manufactured june 2015. Now my new MB has S/N 703. March 2017?! Also, the phone was shipped from retailer, repaired and shipped back to me in 4 days. In Norway, this means that the repair...

Hi Everyone, My Verizon S7 Edge has a minor crack on the top right corner of the screen. It is not too bad and I can't afford the repair. I attached a pic so you can see the damaged phone. The crack does not really affect the phone's functionality much at all. Will a screen protector prevent...

I've just dropped my watch - landing face down and it's cracked the screen, resulting in nothing but lines and colour warping. Just wondering if its economically viable to get the watch repaired. Have only owned it for a few months so I'm feeling very annoyed! Cheers.

Hi there everyone, I bought my Nexus 5X with a cracked screen off eBay when I got it. I lived with it until a side drop cracked it further today, and it's now much more noticeable than before. However, it's just the glass that's cracked - from what I can tell, the LCD and digitizer are...

My Note 4 has suffered burn-in across most of the screen. I am looking at the cost of a replacement digitizer and it's over £130, even more with the entire kit (including the s-pen sensor film and screen). I haven't contacted a Samsung Support Centers yet to get a quote, but if the price of...

hey! since I replaced the display of my Z5 the power button isn't working! I can't power on the phone, but it turns on and can charge up... what could be the problem?
