Thank you for making this video you help save me money. Also, I used hair dryer on high for about 30 seconds and it did the trick. Hope that helps others.
You're very welcome. Exactly!! Hair Dryer works fine 😂one of my first videos I used a hair dryer to replace the back glass of a Samsung S7 edge. 👍🏾 Great Job
@@ersbit claro pero ahí se cambio toda la parte trasera, en mi s20+ tiene separado el el cristal de la cámara con la parte trasera del celular del cristal del celular. cuando lo lleve a reparar solo sacaran esa pequeña luna sin retirar la parte trasera del celular y fue algo sencillo y vi que no tenia conectado nada, estaba separado
Will diminish the IP rating and over all water resistance Here : ruclips.net/video/zypD1HeLXcI/видео.html I think the amount of tape on the S20 plus is big enough and cover more surface than the S21 in the video so technically the S20 plus should survive longer in water after a glass repair, but you must not take it as same IP rating as new unrepaired device.
Great video! Any advice on the fact that my camera won't auto focus at all after doing this repair? I was very careful not to touch our damage any of the camera and neither will auto focus through the replacement glass I purchased. Have you heard of this problem before?
Yes I had the exact issue a few days after doing this 1 of the lens was not focusing basically got dust or something inside lying on the sensor and impossible to clear. I had to replace that camera. It made sure the other camera could focus and found the bad camera using third party apps. If you glass was broken for a long time dust will infiltrate without any signs. Worse is camera won't focus because of the dust.
Fist thing you will need to test all cameras separately and see which one never focus from there you can try to clean with air (no liquid). It's really difficult to salvage a camera with dust on the inside
Hello, thank you for uploading this video. Before I start I have one question. You say the difficulty level is 4. Is that a high difficulty level? Thank you!
I used clear alcohol. Pink am not sure what they added to get pink color. If it does leave residue or color etc... Don't use it. Also use alcohol only if you are having a hard time removing the tape ( use little by little)
@@ersbit so did you use the regular food alcohol 96°? Can I also use alcohol to clean the camera lenses? the day after the glass was broken a small black spot appeared while taking pictures with the 1x camera, do you think it is just dirty or is it damaged? thanks again and sorry for the many questions
The glass should not be an issue, the thing to worry about is the double sided tape. Some are very thin which is acceptable but not the best. In this case if I remember correctly it was very thin but it should hold without any issues because the sticky surface area is big
Hi, my camera glass has broken on my S20, there is a hole in the glass directly above the camera lens (no damage on the lens from what I can see). I tried to see if my camera is working which it is however it doesn't seem to be focusing. Is this because of the hole directly above the camera? Or is the actual camera damaged
Unfortunately it can be both. When your ready to replace the glass you can test the camera with the broken glass removed. If the blurry image persist it is the camera (damage). With the hole on the glass the edge of the hole can make things blurry also. If the camera module get bad unfortunately you will have to replace it
The glass over my camera is not broken, but some debris somehow got behind it and I want to replace it, but how do I start to get it off if the glass is not broken?
Basically same thing you heat the glass area and insert a blade in. Lift the glass (the risk is that you may damage the glass while trying to remove it). Would suggest that you open the back glass clean everything and reseal the back.
@@ersbit open the entire back of phone? I did buy the replacement glass kit. If I damage it, I am replacing it any way. Just want to know where to start to lift. Perhaps in the microphone hole? Also could a hot compress like a microwaveable one work in place of hairdryer? Thanks so much for such an informative video!
Ok. If it was me removing the glass I would try the edges first ( make sure you have eye protection because glass piece will/can fly while you try to lift the glass and result in a broken glass and maybe a scratch on the edge of the camera bezel. Also I recommended the back glass open because you will have access to the whole device and can clean everything one and for all. Lifting the camera glass alone and cleaning what you see can work but if there is something nearby not close to the cameras you won't be able to clean it. Also since your pretty sure the camera glass is good the dust and debris must have entered maybe through the back glass or front speaker. If it's like ifixfit eye-opener it will work (get it really hot) and move it around in a controlled manner and start the removal process. I personally think a Hairdryer is easier lol. Also if it gets harder to move the glass reheat the camera glass area and continue. Goodluck.
Hope you did not put too much liquid/alcohol in while cleaning the lenses? If it is liquid related you can use cold air blower to dry the excess. If the camera glass was broken for a long time you might have accumulated dust on the surface of the sensor so repairing the glass only wouldn’t fix that. Cannot think of anything else related to blurry/focusing problems. If it was the heat that cause the phone to stop focusing I doubt you will even see anything when you open the camera application.
Yes. Same process, the parts might be hard to find, but same process. If you cannot find the camera glass alone you might need to do a full back glass replacement
All depends on your user experience. If it does not interfere too much and you're happy with the pictures and videos it take no need to replace the glass. If it's the opposite you can give it a try
not a problem, on amazon I found only 1 supplier (amzn.to/3u5FZuZ) on ebay (ebay.us/jjh6lR) Was not easy to find a supplier based in the US for this camera glass.
Ok. I looked on eBay they have some parts for Xperia 10. Now I don't know which model of Xperia 10 you are referencing? If you cannot find the glass alone you can get a back cover and remove the camera glass and fix your broken camera glass
Not necessarily I kinda think it should be similar to this video, but that's just an assumption because I have never seen that Xperia 10 (am not really familiar with it)
An sich ja witzig. Ich hab selbst bereits mehrfach das Kamera Glas gewechselt aus dem Grund das nach meiner Wechselung nach einer Weile 1-4 Wochen jede Menge Staub sich darunter befindet. Fraglich woher es kommt, wenn es doch zu ist. Möglich das Staub direkt in dem Zwischengehäuse ist... Eine Idee wie man es komplett staubfrei bekommt? Selbst in diesem kleinen Hohlraum bei den ersten zwei Kameralinsen von Links, oben nach unten? >.>
Tolle Frage. Ich denke, der Staub kommt von früherem Staub, den Sie zuvor angesammelt haben. Die beste Reparatur wäre, einfach das Kameramodul zu wechseln, oder Sie entfernen das Kameramodul und reinigen es mit etwas Alkohol und Druckluft. Wenn Sie auch alle Einbauten mit Druckluft reinigen, wird der gesamte Staub entfernt, und Sie haben keine Staubprobleme, nachdem Sie nur das hintere Glas oder das Kameraglas ausgetauscht haben.
Hey 👋🏽 I have a link going to my website with all the tools needed including the rear camera glass lens. The link is in the description. Thanks for the compliment it helps us know what we are doing good or bad 👍🏽
It mainly depends on the type of tape used. If the tape is of good quality similar to oem I really think the device should be at least one rating less than if it was brand new.
You put the adhesive on upside down. The little hole should have gone over the mic, and the larger (oblong) hole goes over the flash and depth finder. Nice video otherwise!
🤣 You are the first one pointing a technical / placement wrong on this video after all these years. Thank you. I will review it and might redo the video again sometime in 2024. This one is getting old nowwww
You might be right the tape should be flipped vertically the way I had it. I don't think it affects the function of the microphone and flashlight the way I had it. Thank for your contribution 👍🏽.
Thanks! I bought my S20+ two weeks ago and now it broken the camera glass with apparently no reason. I wouldn't like to lose ip68, so I think I will get it to the Samsung Tech Support . Probably it will cost my kidney.
Yes, for sure it's gonna be costly. If you do a lot of water activities with your phone it's better to have it repair by Samsung. They have better glue technology
