Samsung Galaxy Battery Replacement Guide: Step-by-Step DIY

Duration: 45 minutes

Steps: 4 Steps

Get ready to dive into this step-by-step guide that shows you how to remove your old battery and swap it out for a shiny new one! If your device is struggling to hold a charge or just won’t power on, you’re in the right place. We’re here to walk you through every step of safely taking out that tired battery and installing a fresh one, ensuring your device runs like a champ. Just a heads up, this repair might take some time and requires a bit of know-how. You’ll need some special skills, especially using a heat gun. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair.

Step 1

Before diving in, make sure to unplug and turn off your device. Safety first, right?

If you’re feeling some stubbornness, try giving that adhesive a little heat. Don’t go trying to cut through chilly adhesive—just warm it up first!

– First things first, pop out that SIM card and its tray like a pro.

– Grab an iOpener or a heat gun and gently warm up the adhesive holding the back cover in place.

– Once it’s nice and warm, slide an opening pick into the gap between the back cover and the chassis.

– Now, take that pick and glide it all the way around the edges.

– Finally, carefully lift off the back cover and reveal the inner workings!

Tools Used

Step 2

– Tackle those thirteen 3.6 mm Phillips screws holding the midframe in place—let’s get them out of there!

– Grab an opening pick and gently ease out the midframe like a pro.

Step 3

– Grab your trusty opening tool and carefully lift those press connectors on each end of the ribbon cables. You’ve got this!

– Now, gently detach those ribbon cables and set them aside. Easy peasy!

Step 4

Watch out for bending or poking that battery! Let’s keep it safe and sound.

– Drop a few drops of high-concentration isopropyl alcohol at the top of the battery. This will help loosen up that pesky adhesive holding it down.

– Grab your trusty opening pick and gently pry the battery up. You’ve got this!

– Carefully remove the battery. Easy peasy!

– When you’re putting it all back together, if your shiny new battery doesn’t have pre-applied adhesive, just apply some to the well. Then give that new battery a firm press to lock it in place.
