Samsung Galaxy S One Display Replacement Tutorial: Step-by-Step Guide

Duration: 45 minutes
Steps: 7 Steps

The digitizer and LCD are like inseparable best friends, totally bonded together. You gotta replace both unless you have some fancy schmancy gear to split them apart. But hey, it’s a breezy repair with no curveballs – no sneaky cables, clips, or screws hiding around!

Step 1

– Pop off that battery cover, yank out the battery, and slide out the SIM card if your gadget is rocking one.

Step 2

– Unscrew the eight Phillips head screws that are partying around the edges.

– No need to sort these identical 4mm party crashers, they all play nice together!

– Grab a plastic opening tool and gently persuade the frame to take a break from the phone.

Step 3

– Keep on cruising around the frame, you’re doing great!

– Feel free to switch it up with different sizes of plastic opening tools if you need a change.

– Now, gently part ways with the frame.

Step 4

– Unplug the front camera flex with style!

– Give the audio jack flex a gentle goodbye tug.

– Wave farewell to the control button flex.

Step 5

– Carefully hoist the logic board out of the frame,

– then swivel it to the side. Time to disconnect the LCD flex!

– Alright, the logic board is all clear to be taken out. Awesome job!

Step 6

– Your screen is stuck like last year’s gum under the desk! Time to warm things up with a heat gun set to low, or if you’re in a pinch, a good ol’ hairdryer will do the trick to melt that stubborn glue.

– Wave the heat like you’re fanning yourself on a hot day—around the edges of the display. Keep it moving to avoid cooking any one spot too long!

– Once the glue feels like marshmallow fluff, slide in a small spatula or screwdriver to gently coax the display away from the frame. It’s like finding the edge of a page in a sticky note pad!

Step 7

– The LCD has successfully parted ways with the frame!

– Careful there! The PCB for the buttons is cozying up to the bottom of the LCD. Ease it off gently with an opening tool—it’s your best buddy here.

– No need for new adhesive! The button PCB should stick to the new LCD just fine with the existing sticky stuff.
