  • @Stringfox
    @Stringfox 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    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!

    • @RestoreTechnique
      @RestoreTechnique  3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      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’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.

    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.

    • @RestoreTechnique
      @RestoreTechnique  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      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.
