Samsung Galaxy S7 Glass / Touch only Replacement

Difficulty

Very difficult

Steps

1

Time Required

25 - 30 minutes

Introduction

    • Proper way of replacing glass only in Galaxy S7 smartphone. To complete the repair follow each step presented in the recording.

    Although technically accurate in the replacement, this video requires expensive equipment not owned or readily available to most individuals. In short, I cannot recommend this video to anyone “unless” I know they have laboratory level equipment.

    I agree with comment by Nathanael Lock. In addition, angle being recorded was obviously done with a deliberate atempt as to not reveal the whole truth of how the process can be properly completed. Apparently, the way of thinking to record this wasn’t made having good intentions for the public. Shame

Completely useless video.

Riza Khan -

Technically the ‘correct’ way to replace the glass. However, not possible without the equipment shown in the video. Regular DIY individuals don’t have this equipment. Video should be flagged or at least given a category of equipment requirements. Basically not useful.

Nathanael Lock -

Thanks fot your suggestions. I will try to make next tutorial more accessible for more people. Appreciate your contribution to this thread :)

Alex Sander -

is there any way to replace glass at home, without professional equipment?

Irek Kopta -

In this method there will be difficult to succeed. You need to find out how to do it with LOCA method. Best luck Irek!

Alex Sander -

I use pipe freeze to get the glass away from digitiser freeze it right off

apple care -

That’s a good way to do it. Soon we will work this method out and share our experience :)

This video is great if I'm opening a repair shop

Tom K -

Thanks for the comment! Who knows, maybe one day you will ;)

Alex Sander -

No voiceover, no subtitles, no details whatsoever. Completely pointless.

Alex Korbey -

Like others, I have found the lack of equipment details to render this not terribly useful. Exactly what tools/equipment were used during every stage? What other supplies such as adhesives or adhesive removers were used? Etc.

Drew Nielson -

Hello. I am doing a homework about Ifixit and i also have a Samsung S7 so if something happends with it i can always come here and watch your videos abot the phone.

Nice Website by the way :)

I’m glad you find it useful, keep it up. Cheers!

Klasse! Damit kann kein normaler Mensch was anfangen!!! Wer hat schon solch ein Equipment zuhause?....

Für den Wert der Ausrüstung ab kann in ich mir mindestens 10 nagelbeue S7 kaufen!!!

und selbst wenn....- um 1x das Frontglas zu wechseln?

Das Video ist kompletter Müll.... ...wieder so was, was die Menscheit nicht braucht
