Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Screen Replacement Guide: Step-by-Step DIY Tutorial

Duration: 45 minutes
Steps: 39 Steps

Get ready to tackle the screen replacement on your Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra! This guide is all about swapping out that screen. If your replacement part comes with a pre-installed frame, you might want to check out a different guide. Remember, when we say ‘screen,’ we mean the front glass and the display panel together. If your glass is shattered, you’ll need to replace both pieces. Keep in mind, this process will bid farewell to your old screen, so if you’re looking to salvage it, this isn’t the right guide for you. If you need help, you can always schedule a repair.
