Introduction
Use this guide to replace a worn-out or dead battery in your Galaxy A51.
If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions. For your safety, discharge your battery below 25% before disassembling your phone. This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair.
You’ll need replacement adhesive to reattach components when reassembling the device.

If possible, turn on your device and test your repair before installing new adhesive and resealing.
Secure the new battery with pre-cut adhesive or double-sided adhesive tape. In order to position it correctly, apply the new adhesive into the device at the places where the old adhesive was located, not directly onto the battery. Press the new battery firmly into place.
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order. Apply new adhesive where necessary after cleaning the relevant areas with isopropyl alcohol (>90%).
For optimal performance, calibrate your newly installed battery: Charge it to 100% and keep charging it for at least 2 more hours. Then use your device until it shuts off due to low battery. Finally, charge it uninterrupted to 100%.
Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.

C'est vraiment génial
A51 5g smartphone?
Creo que entre los utiles que hacen falta más el precio de la batería, casi sale más conveniente llevarlo a un servicio técnico autorizado, que además te dan garantia de la reparación. Al menos esa es mi opinión después de hacer cuentas.
De todas formas una gran explicación y muy bien traducido al español.
Muchísimasgracias.
5 estrellas para la descripción del trabajo.
Lástima que debería cambiar tambien el vibrador que no me funciona y no he encontrado como hacerlo.
Kijk uit voor de vingerafdruk scanner. Er zit een kleine flat cable aan die kapot gaat als je de behuizing er in 1 keer vanaf haalt
