SUPERB! Absolutely superb! Thank you for providing a clear walkthrough, tips, and warnings of how to save myself (and others) hundreds of dollars. Simple phone repair is, well simple;) just requires patience, a delicate hand, and the understanding of 'a little progress is still progress' (i.e., removing the battery). Tip: To those who are struggling to remove the battery with limited tools and fear of dmging it. I used a collection of plastic playing cards. Worked them in slowly and added/wiggled a total of 7 cards underneath one another to free the PSU. GL!
Thankyou so much for this walkthrough, I was able to replace the screen which I brought from Amazon. Used hair dryer to remove battery as I did not have alcohol. I am Totally proud and satisfied.
Now I know how to Replace my sumsung A12 LCD, thanks for this video and more power to your channel my friend, Done wacthing here from pasig city Philippines...
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this excellent and very clear video. I broke my phone after 5 days of buying it so was gutted. Would have cost me almost the same price of the phone to fix, so ordered the part, some tools and did it, I am absolutely delighted. Have never done anything like this before so I'm still patting myself on the back. Well done! many many thanks.
Awesome video fixed my wife's phone only difference I did was to remove the battery by folding old screen in half to onstick the battery from the screen careful not to get any glass on your hand
You sir, are a Godsend. This is the best instructional vid I have found to solve my problem. Took me 2 hours but well worth taking my time. Many thanks for being generous.
Thanks a lot and kind greetings from Germany. I just replaced the display of my mobile. Your video is great. Thanks, thanks 1000 times! - Just one comment: I bought an original display of Samsung and there the microphone and the speaker were included, so I didn't need to get it out. - Just an addition to your video. - Very nice!
Great work this is really clear. One thing I'm not sure of. You didn't seem to use any glue when you put the components back in. Did you just use the leftover glue from the pieces you took off?
brother im actually gonna do this myself (wish me luck) i have a qns for u is there any other way rather than using alcohol to remove the battery i have seen sm yt vedios where ppl use heat gun and was able to get it out pls respond tysm great vedio as well!!!
@@CrocFIX Thanks for your reply, I have already changed it out! So far so good, but the touch sensitivity is not very sensitive.. Is there a way that it can be adjusted?
I finally got my phone fixed by watching your video (excellent) but to my dismay the speaker is buzzing now any ideas to what I did to cause this? Was there some kind of glue to use when reinstalling it? Thanks Dave
@@jonperez1025 yes sir turned out I lost a screw and the one screw I omitted was the one right next to the speaker so I substituted another screw from a different location. I think I may have used a dab of silicon seal too on the bottom of the speaker. Good luck
Thanks for this great video. I too dropped my phone and the screen broke, but the phone still works. One site names a replacement part as follows: "6.5" Original For Samsung Galaxy A12 LCD A125F SM-A125F A125 Display Touch Screen Digitizer For Samsung A12 Screen Replacement. I believe I have to buy 'with frame' to do what you did. Is that correct, please? Thanks in advance. Also, I could not see where the video links for buy were.
Hello! This video was very helpful to me. After i changed the screen, the ear speaker didn't work. I hope you see my comment and help me out if possible. I placed the metal plate, and then the speaker. I don't think i missed something, but i can't figure out the problem. Thank you!
I have my own ifixit case. I have never done something like this before. I just found out that repair shops will charge you 100+ I dont want to pay that, so what I am trying to find out is ,can i buy it cheaper and do it myself cheaper...is it easy to do ,like a laptop disassembly? with an ifixit tool kit case and simple not frustrating?
I have a samsung galaxy a12 sm-a 125u which I dropped and cracked but it still works . I want to buy a new screen and put it on myself do I just buy the new screen or do I have to get the one with a frame or just a plain screen replacement.
Hello. I have removed the touchscreen samsung galaxy a127f from the screen but I have no device to press the touch scareen. Do you have an idea or method on how to make it at home? By the way, the display works very well. Thanks in advance
Got it now. So you have seperated the glass from the lcd screen. This is a lot more work. You need uv glue or lamination machine and a bubble remover machine to install a new glass - touchglass on your screen. This complete assembly if you buy from my link, includes the screen and a new touch and you just glue it inside the frame and you are done.
I f-up my battery :( for the whole day it worked, until it completely drained the power, but then it wouldn't charge anymore. I ordered the new battery. But hey, great tutorial
My phone's LCD layer cracked randomly after half a month (it's a new phone!) without the glass above it breaking or the screen protector getting damaged. I don't know if i should fix it myself or send it back to samsung since they can just charge me a fine.
I just finished watching your video and it's great. I dropped My Samsung Galaxy A 12 a couple of days ago and the LCD screen broke and after i checked into getting it fixed i decided to do it myself and save a lot of money but there is one problem I have never worked on any cell phone of any kind. My biggest fear is getting the wrong part I would like to do what you did in your video that looks like the fastest way to repair the phone . I don't have a eBay account any longer do to i had to meany problems with them but i do have a Amazon account do you sell on Amazon also? I would like to purchase the part from you that way i will know I'm getting he right part. I have a debit card if that helps. I really appreciate any help or advice you can give me. Thank you
Hello I just tried your video my phone is 2 weeks old an I busted the screen by dropping my phone. Once I opened it that cable is attached to the on off switch instead of the side switch that came apart and I can't figure out how it fits in there. Could use please help me figure this out Maybe the side switch part fits into the cover opposite battery.
@@CrocFIX figured it out the side switch has two black rubber legs that fit in opposing slots to hold it in place and the off and on switch has a backing clip that holds that in. Thanks, Dave

Thanks for watching!

great video thank you
Very welcome
Great work this is really clear. One thing I'm not sure of. You didn't seem to use any glue when you put the components back in. Did you just use the leftover glue from the pieces you took off?
Yes, if the adhesive is intact, you can leave it. If its broken and damaged, you can apply some glue or adhesive stripes if you got them
Nice clear video. The only decent one I could find. Thanks very much!!
Glad it helped!
Destroyed my work phone, this video let me fix it at at half the cost of getting it repaired by someone else. Thank you
Good to hear :)

brother im actually gonna do this myself (wish me luck) i have a qns for u is there any other way rather than using alcohol to remove the battery i have seen sm yt vedios where ppl use heat gun and was able to get it out pls respond tysm great vedio as well!!!
Hi, I would not use a heat gun, as this could be dangerous. I'm always using alcohol. Good luck
@@CrocFIX tysm brother for the help and btw which alcohol u use can u send me a link for the alcohol pls
@@userid_1259 Sorry I don't have a link. But you can buy it in your local chemical store. It is isopropyl alcohol

Is this also for the A125u?
Yes

Alcohol

Maybe you damaged the speaker when you took it out or there is no contact to the board. See if you see any cracks or damages on the speaker
@@CrocFIX nevermind i bought a new one and now it's working perfectly fine. Thank you!

Everything came apart great and went back together easy but my touch screen lights up but is not responding to touch any Ideas
Try disconnect the cable, clean it and reconnect again. See if there is some dirt in the connector.

Yes, your data is on the motherboard. It will stay there

With a Galaxy A12 SM-A125U which replacement part should be ordered? LCD Display Touch screen Digitizer Frame or the Touch Screen Assembly Replace?
8:40 is that display all tied in to the whole frame?
Frame and lcd are gluet together at 8:40
@@CrocFIX why not just make it easy,just make a glass that pops in and pops out?all by itself?why attach the glass the the frame...

Can i replace a screen from a galaxy A12 with a screen from a galaxy A-32 5G
No
Why would a new screen be unresponsive after installation? It charges and turns on but the screen is unresponsive. Thanks for the feedback.
It could be a faulty screen (bad touch) or faulty connection.

For the easier battery removal you could use a heat gun

¿Cómo soluciono el cristal de la pantalla rayada? Ya que no está rota sino rayada yo hablo español
I feel like I have just repaired one😂
😁👌
How would I know if I have damaged the battery
If you made a puncture, hole inside the protective layer or if you smell strange fruity smell from the battery.
I did everything in the video but now the call headset does not work. And the lower speaker is heard with a very loud squeak.
You mean the ear speaker? Maybe you damaged it or there is no contact...have a look.
Hiya how do you remove water from the Samsung A12
Open the phone, clean all the motherboard with alcohol, dry it and try
@@CrocFIX
I can use anything to dry it? And thanks
Did this now phone won't turn on or charge. Bought new battery and charge port still won't work. What did i do
can we skip some portion as it too tedious and too much removed ...as compare others video
What would you like to skip? :) All steps needs to be done if you wold like to repair your phone
Could you fix mine for me please? I just got it and shattered front screen 2 day's later. How much ,?
Sorry, you have to bring it to a repair shop close to you or try by yourself

This video is a waste of time, replacement digitizers dont have a frame on them, nice lie boy.
You can buy with or without frame
