This video should be titled "The most patient human being on earth". Excellent work. Very riveting!
Despite being an old model, the phone looks georgous when it shines like a new piece of tech. Good job, mate and thanks for the video!
This person out done Samsung itself, well done, your video is brilliant. I am now in the process of doing this, and I tell you it is not easy.
I have an old S3 with an broken glass screen in the beginning I was like "I'll do the same", after 30 seconds I was like "No way" 😂 thanks for the video it was very interesting to see how it's built
My old phone ☎️📱😐
Same LMAO
I still have mine and it works fine 👍
@@brydenoneill7511 mine too...i love that phone so much its a part of me😂
Removable battery, micro SD slot, headphone jack.... this phone has more features that the latest S21
And a charger in the box.
Well you can actually fucking repair this one? The other one is a God damn paper weight.
i stopped being a samsung fan after the s10 for that reason
@@fix-it-flo samsung A series still have headphone jack and sd slot
@@erikpetan8396 I know but those are slow, I still wonder why they removed that on their premium line phones
This has to be one of the best restoration videos I've ever seen!
The phone whisperer. Very impressive. Patience and precision. I liked the lilac nail varnish touch.
Cheers mate
This might be the most impressive phone restoration I've seen. You did a great job!
Agree re patience. Also, the fact he can do all this without having music blaring . Excellent
That's a great phone! I had one too. Made awesome photos and screen had vivid colours.
The charging sound at the end……
man I smiled involuntarily ❤
Zen-levels of relaxation watching this. Thank you. ;)
Sweet 😌
My wife says, "So these are your cat videos, huh?" :-) Fantastic technique.
Haha 😊 cheers!
Yes, as in Computers And Technology 😆
You really brought it back to new condition. Well done👌
Thanks man 😀
Galaxy S3 is back to the life
You're the best mechanic I've ever seen
wow, ur channel serves such an amazing restoration videos and it feels like its an ASMR Gadget lmao. ur channel just the best by far i guess
Thankyou 😄
That was very satisfying bro thank you for the video
you deserve more views for your talent. Excellent work!! I will share your video as much as possible. Hope you grow soon.
Thanks so much dude 😊
One of the finest restoration I've ever seen
Really enjoyable video and got me to laugh at Deez Nutz and the Nail Polish part, thank you.
this job is so well done, it's perfect!, i love the job you do
Nice work and production quality. Running Android 11 (LineageOS 18.1) on my old one. Security patches to April 2022!
What a flex! Absolute madlad
The Screen of gt I9300 is working on GT I9301I?
I'm not sure to be honest. Probably not
waiting for the channel to explode. great content!
THE SOUND OF CHARGING CONECT WOOW
😍😍😍
chills bro i got chills
😊
For some reason, sometimes when I get overly anxious or stressed, I look up this exact video and watch it 🥲
I loved my S3… It got old very quickly which meant it couldn’t keep up with most apps! I did however drop it down the toilet, cleaned it up and sold it for decent money at the time! I may reinvest and store as I’ve done with other phones!
nice work!! idol
Wow, lo detallista que eres, es lo que mas me gusta
How did you clean the edges of the glass so well? You cleaned the LOCA again after it hardened? From 13:04 to 13:43 is a big difference.
No I cleaned the edges fully before hardening it finally. I cleaned it with a plastic razor blade, and with Isopropyl Alcohol and microfibre cloth. I couldn't show the whole cleaning process, I needed to edit it.
@@RestoreTechnique Thanks for the reply, cheers! Will try doing a similar repair soon, hence the question.
Amazing! But I wonder why you didn't use tape to secure the broken digitizer when removing, or used only one card to remove the LCD :o
In any case, patience is a virtue and the results speak for itself! Excellent job!
Thankyou! The front glass has a laminated layer underneath, which holds all the glass in 1 piece, so it's not necessary to tape it. Fyi, the glass is not a digitzer, its just glass, the digitzer is layered on top of the AMOLED display.
I am hoping you are working on a psp/psvita or a iPod gen 4 restoration!!
hermoso trabajo sin palabras! sub nuevo espero ansioso ver otra restauración saludos desde argentina!!
This was the first "smartphone" that I saw and was like - damn, these phones are worth it now!
Nice
This was amazing, nice choice of music too and you can really tell how passionate you are about restoring such devices, subbed
Thanks heaps mate
Soothing and fascinating to watch, but also disgusting at times too, lol, that gunk is revolting
I like this video.. it make me want to service a phone.. i hope next video you can show the type of equipment n tools what u use.. its very interesting skill n knowledge
Thankyou, I will consider this for a future video 🙂
Well done on a retro restoration ✨
Thankyou 😀
I love your videos man super cool!! Keep it up man I will always like your vids!!
Also I have watched the full vedio and already subscribed!!
Thanks heaps man 😃
Please do more this was amazing
Outstanding man 💯
Thanks for the great video. Learned lot from it.
No worries, cheers 😀
أنت أسطورة الهواتف 😍😳
Absolutely amazing video!
Liked & subscribed.
I appreciate the work you have done in this video!
Old us gold bro i want old phone still i love small phone poweefull and old skool type
any suggestion on where should i try to look for a red display and back cover for an S3? i have a red one with unfortunately a broken screen and no back but i do have a new frame i could use for it with display adheasive preinstalled. the colors actual name was "Burgundy Red" if i remember correcly... never mind i just looked it up and it was "Garnet Red". i mixed up the red from the S8 and S9
I plan on replacing the screen and back cover on my red Galaxy S3 to make a mint condition working unit
Nice, I just saw it in your video. Good luck with it.
In my country/city the stores have put the phone recycling bins behind the counter so no one bin dives :(
@@RestoreTechnique I know there are w-waste centers that will sell electronics to you as long as you destroy the sim and sd cards
This is what i call a "Pro repair"! 1000 likes for you and subscribed 👍 By the way, where can i buy a good battery? I find only old ones online and with crazy shipping prices.
Sorry I can't remember where I got it from.
I’m back here again, watching you repair this seemingly destroyed phone to mint condition - zen like. I wonder - what do you do with the phones you repair? Sell, give to homeless, collect, use yourself? I wonder because I was thinking that a 9 year old samsung can’t have a lot of resale value and will have no software support.
The red, pink, brown and silver Samsung Galaxy s3s are pretty rare I'm lucky to have a red one that I plan on repairing soon
Do you have an engineering degree because what you do is awesome
I don't, but thankyou ☺️
Top of line product from 2013.
Love your vids. Keep up the.good work
Amazing, you are so skilled!
Doing a glass only repair is not an easy thing, that went from one of the worst s3s to one of the best I've ever seen. The brown colour way is under rated
Cheers mate
You had my Like with "deez nuts"
great video!
😁
It was amazing to watch the video 😍
These videos mesmerize me, but on the back of my head I always had this burning question: Why bother repairing this 9 year phone? It's not like anyone is going to use it. And the answer is probably: content.
Yes content, plus nostalgia
Does it for educational purposes.
بطارية قابل للإزالة، بطاقة ذاكرة microSDXC، منفذ سماعة 3.5mm… هذا التلفون فيها مميزات كمان بدلها الـ S21 / S22
I'm about to restore mine soon.
Nice 👍
@@RestoreTechnique Nice❤❤❤❤❤
It was really awesome
Thankyou 😀
My first ever flagship phone❤
Mere pas b yehi fon hy Samsung s3.or uski screen b isi trha toot gyi hy. Or mai usko repair krwana chahta hu. Kindly btaein k ye kese hoga
I don't offer a repair service sorry
Quando meu s10 plus completar 10 anos vou entrar em contato com você pra restaurar ele
Another perfect restoration. By the way i almost fell off my chair from laughing at the end of the video LMAO
I remember when I was recording something on my S3 in 2019, then it fell on the front, the screen broke and the touch didn’t work anymore. The next day I got a different unit, but I had everything transfered on to it. It was black S3.
Removing the screen requires a lot of patience I do not posses
Very good very nice
Thanks 😄
The nails at the end😂
I can handle laptops that way, but this... I wonder If I could do this to my S3. After repeative drops metal with already cracked screen The screen went black but everything else seems to work or idk... It isn't that bad like here though. Maybe I have change to revive it...
I tried many softwares to acces it. One said that" this procedure can harm your phone for good"... I hope I didnt kill it. I only want my photos out... at least.
16:33 is that a replacement volume flex or the old one?
I can't remember exactly, but I think it was the old one which I cleaned with IPA
@@RestoreTechnique t.y.
great video now i know how to replace the volume flex
Nice work bro same problem my phone how many rupees
I don't offer a repair service sorry
@@RestoreTechnique thank you 🙏
very nice
Thanks 😀
How much to repair? I have two of them that need repairing??
I don't offer a repair service sorry
Meu Deus s3
can I have a link to the battery used?
I have a phone like this but the LCD is damage I'm planning to restore it, it brings a lot of memories when i was at high school
That's great, good luck
Красавчик 😊👍
I actually cried a bit on this... from nostalgia.
Please refurbishe a ps vita!
Will consider, cheers
Yes please I want to watch a restoration of that!!
very clever
I love this video
where to buy brown replacement parts?
It has been 3 weeks and he haven't uploaded a video!!! I hope he's ok.......
Yes I'm ok thanks, had some issues with my latest projects though, so very delayed 😣
@@RestoreTechnique ok👍👍 I hope it comes soon
👍👍👍👍Super Nice
Thanks 😀
@@RestoreTechnique 🙏🏻💪🏻🌟🌟🌟
wao! es impresionante me encanto T_T! en argentina no encuentro quien me restaure mi galaxy s3 ya que tiene un gran valor sentimental :C
best job
All this work for a phone that’s not even worth £30? But great repair, shows how tough these phones were with the lack of repairability.
It's very weird how I have a Lenovo tablet that's around $30 that has been with me since 5 years
Still works even getting 3 broken lines from occassion falls
Probably just for collection purposes, plus he’s most likely going to make back the money with this video
спасибо за видео! классно👍🏻
Man I wish I could finish my s3. It was first phone
‘Aligning the glass to the border with Deez nuts’ 😂😂
Bro my phone screen is broken how i can found only screen?
vendorlist.mbl.repair/
Or REWA, WitRigs, EtradeSupply, eBay, Google
Muito legal ficou muito bom 👏👏👏🎉👍
Good hai bhai very nice

I prefer more phones like this than s23 or a55
Imagine being the next to restore that thing, and finds a card in it
