Do you have a tutorial on nuclear reactors?
LOL!!!! This had better get this most likes out of ALL comments!!
Agree, there should be a one. FOR SCIENTIFIC PURPOUSES ONLY of course
*CIA ENTERS THE CHAT *
MIT is the place to go for that one 😜
Hopefully Codys lab will have one soon.
Dude you're legit the most dedicated content creator I know, you spend so much time and effort on your videos and it really shows!
I'll be hanging out for the next few hours and answering comments (and tweets and instagram/facebook comments, and reddit comments if someone posts this). I'll try and answer as many questions as I can, so ask away!
EDIT: The views count on this video isn't updating for some reason. There are already 45k views on this video, but it's currently showing 38 views for me. So yeah, it's wonky, but we probably don't need EVERYbody to comment on it;)
Can you build your own rocket now?
I have a samsung tab s3 9.7, it needs new glass digitiser as amoled panels fine but nobody in the UK can do it yet and a samsung panel is insanely expensive over here and I don't trust the 3rd party screens I can get.
How would you go about finding a repair centre in china to send it off too (i'm in no rush for it back) to get a glass only repair?
Thanks in advance Scotty!
I have a symphony w71i it has 512 mb ram . how do I increase it
Strange Parts I built my own 5s, 6 and 6s but I’d love to be able to build like 8-X
how can i get the motherboard in my country
I think most people clicking this video expect some sort of shallow clickbait and not a video on ACTUALLY MAKING an iPhone.
this is not making an iphone..... this is just replacing the midframe..... so it is clickbait
buts it is cool
*Scotty Allen one of the nicest most genuine person on RUclips*
What if, lol totally!
You guys are too kind😊
There's no such thing as being too kind :)
#Scotty4ever :)
@What if the best description of him
True ! :)
My favourite engineering channel on RUclips. You taught me so much!
Hey, Scotty, you forgot to add that black screens have a tiny extra part that the white screens don't. A little filter that goes in front of the ambient light sensor to filter the light through the black glass. Without it the phone screen won't turn off when you put the screen up to your ear. It's a tiny, fiddly part, but it's pretty important. Great video, by the way.
Wow, totally didn't know this. Great tip!
This is great I really enjoyed this video your the greatest man 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾keep it up bro
Thanks, Scotty. I love your videos. I'm very jealous that you have access to the Shenzhen market. Being a 3rd party repairman, I'd love to have access to instant components. I have to wait at least 2 days to get the parts I need. I've spent thousands keeping a stock of spare parts just so I have a 1 day turn-around for my company. I'd love you to mod an iPad. If you have time?
@@StrangeParts if you don't have this tiny filter, you can use a permanent black marker instead and just paint that small window for the proximity sensor (ofcourse u should paint it from the inside)
@@StrangeParts boop
All of these intricate, tiny parts are just mind blowing to me. It's crazy that a tiny sticker and a minuscule metal clip that could disappear into the fibers of a fleece sweatshirt can be responsible for the buttons having a proper response and thus transforming the end user experience of the entire device.
Sponsored by ifixit yet doesn't use an ifixit tool kit :)
Take it they didn't pay you enough?
hehe
It's on the way! Currently stuck in Chinese customs 😂
Just use their guides to get all the parts for it on the Shenzen markets. ;)
Tool brothers actually sell legit iFixit tools in their booth - they think the quality is really high, but have a problem importing all of the tools they want...
ifixit tools suck balls
Strange Parts The ironic and hilarious thing is that the toolkit probably came from China in the first place.. You could go to the market and probably get a better kit for less..
Just a heads up for anyone in the US, you can get a pair of similar digital calipers at Harbor Freight for $19 regularly, but they are normally discounted to around $10-$12. Also they are what I use and work fine for most everyday work.
Thank youuu, this was really helpful to me
Make your own macbook
Thank would be so cool.
MAN THAT WILL BE COOL
I dont think its possible
With ryzen🙄🙄
It's not hard
I knew your channel when my father was working in Qingdao (China) and your video about the headphone jack made me modify his Iphone 7 and put a jack in his Iphone
1 hour before Apple keynotes and this uploaded, nice timing! thanks :D
I am an Android user, but I won't miss your videos. 💥
No surprise there - _on average(!)_ more android users have an interest in the tech behind and inside these devices :)
true!
He should definitely do a 'make your own uber-android phone'. Make the best android phone from all the best parts of different android phones if thats possible.
Guess what? No one cares.
I guess they never miss huh?
Here before #1 TRENDING!!!
FAST Food Pit Stops right on Apples keynote date lmao
Yeah, we'll see how well that strategy works out for me:) Could go either way...
You make awesome videos Scott, thanks for replying!
FAST Food Pit Stops here before the BBC reports on this next year!
Man , what I notice mostly is that you have a lot of patience , and obviously a hardworking person and that's what will bring success to you !!
You guys remember looking this up as a kid because your mom wouldn’t buy you a new one? 💀
The most detailed and probably the best youtuber I've ever watched. Deserves an award
Ayyyyy the actual DIY god
Scotty, I'm looking forward to your hitting the 1,000,000 subscriber milestone!
Hi, I'm here to bring you a great smart power bank idea for IOS phones and others. How about opening a smart power bank case and putting SSD 120GB? Or even enjoy battery charging but put a micro SD reader?
Thoroughly enjoyable video, not for the making of a phone from parts, but for the sole reason of sharing the knowledge. Hope to see more videos in the near future.
Great vid scotty, keep up the good work
even i can't even make this cause of lack of resource . it totally satisfies me watching your vids
Look up silicon travel mats for hair straighteners/curlers instead of cellphone repair mats and you will find them for $3 instead of $20+
But probably they won't be anti-static. Given the fact that silicon normally can withstand up to 300ºc that alone would be enough to lay down something hot, but not really the best thing for electronics.
@@Spartacusse Last time I checked, it wouldn't melt until 1414 degrees C / 2577.2 F. Being a semiconductor, I'm sure there is some way of making it suitably antistatic.
+pr0xZen
Sure, I meant given the fact that silicone can (easily) withstand 300ºc, it's a good choice of material for a mat intended to put hot stuff over it. Of course there is ways of making it antistatic, that's my point exactly, the original comment said "travel mats" can be found for $3 while "cellphone repair mat" are around $20, I simply pointed out that, given the fact that "travel mat" does not need to be antistatic, it probably isn't, and that feature, may account for most, if not all of the price difference.
The cheap ones bubble up when you heat them up too. It probably won't melt but it'll push everything around and knock stuff over while you're trying to heat the board.
Congrats.... Ur about to hit 1 million.... Here with u ever since ur first upload.... 😘
Love seeing what you make Scott!
Tips and tricks for your iPhone assembly, from a cell repair tech.
1) on the screen assembly , touch ID sensor, backplate first before the other plates , and when you have the bottom half done , the camera assembly is easier to focus on and prefold and install starting from speaker contacts, then mic then sensors fold back camera, install speaker , fold camera into place. Hold camera (everything else is held into place by adhesion or friction) and slip bracket into place.
2) work on the phone sideways with the screen opening to the top with the same idea that you had for holding it in place. That way the screen is out of your way and you have room for your hand ,
3) the camera flex. Start with holding the screen with your left hand and click the flex into place with your right. Once the flex is secure , pull the screen down towards the charge port the screen will be far enough out of the way and will have pulled the flex downward out of the way( be careful as to not rip the flex), set bracket into place and screw down , after that is finished then install LCD /touch flexes and then finish as normal ( with the phone sideways this is much easier )
Love the videos and you have genius ideas
Hey I have an Idea for your next Video
Removing the notch from pixel 3 Xl
Near to 1 million..... AWESOME WORK! PRE-CONGRATS
Do you have a link to the really nice screw drivers you mentioned ? I'm having trouble finding them
Watching you makes me happy, Mr. Scotty from Strange Parts. 😁
can you show us the mold factories on china and how they work ?
Thanks for the great content! As an Android user this information has helped me inform my Apple using friends about the problems/fixes they can do!
Can you try to make a hybrid phone from different phone companies?
I thought of this myself to. Maybe even looked into doing it.
But you really need some kind of engineering background to do it.
Maybe Scotty could pull it off!
iliketoget wasted parts might not be compatible
I know this is late but very few parts are different. Samsung manufactures a large amount of iPhone parts
I acctually wanted to see your chanel for the 20th time, i rewatch alot of your videos. You are awesome :)
why would i make my own when the new ones are around the corner?!! jk still gonna watch and learn :D
Sometimes, it's more about the journey than the destination...
Strange Parts That’s deep. 😂
@@RXyoutube 😂
So you aren't charged up the ass for one
Because when the new ones come out, you might be able to make a X/8 for cheaper
I really like your videos, and like the way you describe every thing in detail!!! Keep up.
Anyone have a link to the "Really fancy" screwdrivers? I can't find them.
I've been looking all day and have't been able to locate them.
I think he misspoke or its a different company. i looked all over the tools plus website
I was hoping to find like a 40-60 piece set of those, but as far as I can tell, they only sell the four screwdrivers needed for an iphone. The cross bit, the pentalobe, the triangular bit, and a phillips.

Found them.
The chinese writing on the side of the screwdrivers is: 潜力創新, (Thanks to dict.naver.com which allows you to draw chinese characters with your mouse...) which translated to potential innovation.

Hi, my name is Dennis :)
I am technician for mobile phones all brands and Apple watches, SMD pcb soldering etc
I need to tell people not to do everything like you if they want really to repair their phone. For daily use u need to take a little more precision
But what is much more important, I love your video and I watch all of them since you first build YOUR own iPhone. You remember me on my learning time for mobile repair before I open my own stores... But I am jealous because you have time to travel to China directly... I have to order by internet 😂😂
I hope you do some videos in future, thank you for this great content on RUclips.
Best regards, Dennis😁
Can you get an iphone X, and add a fingerprint scanner on the back?
Verxan Cast it probably wouldn't connect
Eyyy! I remember when you uploaded your first vid...your channel grew so fast wow :D
Can you build an ultimate gaming Android phone?
Hahah, maybe. I would like to build an android at some point, but I think we should probably take a break from phones for at least a little bit and explore all the other cool stuff out there...
@@StrangeParts you should build your own ultimate drone 🤗🤗 as always, great video 👍👍👍
You are unique...no one makes videos like you .....
Problem is iFixit has parts that are far overpriced, you’ll end up paying more than you need to
On some parts they are more reliable, but with tools not much beats them in price and quality
the way he smiles makes me smile....and i don't know why.
who ready for the new iPhones today?
Today?
Not my wallet
I like them But my X is 10 months old. No way I"m trading up till the phone is two years old
Yay another video! I'll watch when home u have learned so much on this journey always a fun time watching!!
I really like messing around with electronic stuff like this, like attaching a motor to some wires from a charger and taking out battery placement thing in a toy and connecting it to the motor and making a fan out of popsicle sticks and putting the whole thing in a big plastic bottle and making a Lil vacuum cleaner out of it for dust and sand. Made one for my little sisters science project altho I had to solder and stuff and it was really hard for a beginner like me, I had a lot of fun too.
If you have fun doing it that's awesome. Some challanges do happen, just keep trying 😁
I was working in mumbai-india, at the time you visited mumbai.. ! but the video posted some days after u left mumbai.. i really wanted to meet you brother :( i'm a great great fan of you :) .. u r just awesome... :)
LOVE FROM INDIA :)
VISIT INDIA AGAIN AND AGAIN .. COME TO BANGALORE NEXT TIME..
WAITING....
First of all... I'm not into hardwares at all
Secondly.. I hate iPhones
Still your videos just amuse me
I don’t like iPhones either, but I enjoy watching his videos.
You android cultists have to go EVERYWHERE to tell people how much you hate Apple. Nobody cares.
@@DanaTheInsane Nobody also cares that you like Iphones. ***ITS MY OPINION!!!!!***
In this case it is ok that he told us he hates iPhones. It is part of the comment, like the build up.
Ahmed Jabir Zuhayr why do you hate iPhones?
I love your videos, this is what I call original content
Install Android OS in a iPhone , like a full working android OS, not just a skin or like a tester that I seen around .
Ivan Hernandez yes
Ivan Hernandez you can't even install an Android skin onto iOS. You'd have to actually put the insides of an Android into an iPhone.
The timing of the video is on point
does anyone else have their view count stuck at 31 views?
Even with my extreme myopia I can’t imagine working with components that small. Credit to you sir!
Half of your success is that you are in China 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ifixit actually sells a really awesome screw driver set that has all the bits you need and a magnetic mat that you can label little squares all set out on the mat to help you keep track really easy and crazy useful

Your videos inspired me to take apart of my iPhone and installed an apple logo light in it. I will do more iPhone mods in the future. I've lived in Shenzhen for more than 3 years, i hope i can meet you in Hua Qiang Bei.
Why it's still saying 28 Views 😂😂
Could you make a video about planned obsolescence? Like see if you can find parts that are specifically designed to only work for a certain period of time ?!? That would be really interesting.
*so this is basically for those who cant sell their kidney for the iphones that are releasing today*
I’m very excited to see the new iPhones that come out tonight!
28 views ?
SStech haha
I'm not even an apple fan but I love these videos!
Can you build your own Android phone from scratch?
Yes
David Lewis but it isnt a problem with the OS im pretty sure the parts are just built differently you cant expect 5 different competing companys stick to the same tech
For me I'm just tryna pimp out my old iPhone 6 Plus. Replace the housing which means tearing down my whole phone so this channel has really helped me get to know what that takes. I also wonder if I could swap in any parts from other phones. Maybe even make it full screen somehow. No notch or bezels.
Apple is literally shaking
😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Nah their lawyers are trying to figure out how they could win a lawsuit in China 😉 that they cant win
Bro ur the best I made my own iPhone.Keep up the work your the best
I enjoy and patiently waiting for your video to pop out on my feed almost everyday! Keep up the good work and please produce more videos. Maybe an iphone 6 plus upgrade? 🤔
I saw you on "Only in Japan Go", I subscribed!
I was in Shenzhen for nearly 4 weeks, stayed in Longhua. I was at the electronics market, three, sometimes four times a week. If you wanted to take on the task of building an iPhone there, it would cost MAYBE $60 (¥420)! The motherboard is 90%of it. The housing¥20 (that's $2.25 U.S.). The other components are fractions of an ¥1 (less than $0.02). But keep in mind, a used 128gb iPhone 6 there was just over $100.
Almost a million subs, awesome man, good for you !
CLOSE TO 1 MILLION
strategic day to release this video, great job!
Thank you for making these amazing videos, Scotty! I'm planning to start up a company in Chengdu, these really help me scope out the market.
I've actually used food grade silicone mats. They come in many different sizes & are very cheap in price. Especially here in States. They are actually made of same material as repair mats or solder mats, as I have both. Do microsoldering, soldering, PC repair, phone repair, etc etc etc AND wanted to test the mats out. Food ones work just as well, but they have no compartments or any cool little features...but for the price, if on budget...works great.
Love the channel & vids, hoping for lots more & some more factory tours too please.
Cheers, A
i like your videos alot. they always inspire me to be creative and just build.
Just a normal ass dude in china spreading the knowledge he learned on building iphones. respect.
For the standoff i use just regular flat head. Good video maan, keep it up!
I love your series. Are you considering working on the newer models like the iPhone X and the new iPhone XS/XS Max?
You should try to add 3D Touch to a iPhone SE or 5S.
I absolutely LOVE your videos mate.
Andrew.
Ifixit guides are amazing
Stay awesome Scotty!
Love your channel. Howdy from South Africa!
Scotty doo! Another great video shame parts aren't as easily available for cheap like in China but still! Keep it up brother x
Plastic gasket around lcd is prevent glass contact the metal bodi/frame and cause crack to the glass.. and make more durable when falling
Thanks man this really helped because I'm restoring a 2017 iPhone SE my 16 year old brother is going to buy it off me once I can get it working because for some odd reason the iPhone SE screen only is going to the apple logo to power on it doesn't fully turn on to the lock screen and I need to factory reset I think but I'll have to go bring it to a professional to get my iPhone SE factory reseted
You should set a camera for top of your object on which you are working.. it will helps us a lot to see more 👍🏻
It's a thunderstorm. I don't care, new Strange Parts video!
You inspire and I wanna say thx. For example you build.my own phone so when I broke my iPhone I was like if Scot can make an iPhone I can fix my own one.
I really like the red on black phone, I still wonder if there is a window in the room you are in though. Lighting always seems spot on :D
1 million coming up soon!!!
This guy is pure GOLD
U work really hard for these awesome videos!
Would love it if someone did a build your own iPhone or Android phone kit with accompanying tutorial video that would be awesome.
"Tons of videos!" Yeah right, where? You are the only guy on youtube doing this! Wish there was more because i love tinkering.
As soon as I saw the tweezers I was glad I can just buy one ready to go!
