The original owner must be drilling his current phone watching this in rage
Hhahahha
He has got a new Bosch, too. First thing on the agenda was to drill through his old drill because it wouldn’t pair with the app
@@b_altmann bluethooth connected drill from bosch?
😂😂😂😂😂
@@b_altmann bosch app kinda sucks to be honest
The guy took the hole punch camera to another level.
Pretty much
lol haha youre funny
Lol
How to give your phone the middle finger...by stabbing its 3rd eye right out!
epic
I find it funny that the people who rage at their phone for being slow also have the time to go and get their drill
😂😂😂 logic
You guys don’t keep your drill by your bed?
Take notes from Hugh .Fging APPLE
@@simons9264 ikr who doesn't
@@simons9264 no, i like to keep it in my pocket for easy access whenever i get angry at my phone
Dang… JerryRigEverything must’ve upped his durability test.
Exactly
Lol
😂😂
Drillability test... Not good enough? Fine, I'll go outside
Lmaooo
Original owner in ebay description: "Minor cosmetic damage. 100 % working."
"Neither smoking nor pets in the household."
No substances used
Only has one hole.
"Battery 100% healthy"
Now we all know that Hugh is not just a technician but also a detective.
Hugh Jeffreys: Its previous owner has had a rage so bad that they drilled through the back of the phone.
Techrax: Hey guys what's going on. Today we will be drilling through this S10+ and seeing if it survives.
The crossover event of the century
Lol nice joke
And give Hugh Jeffreys a reason for another repair video.
Exactly 🤣
True lol
This S10+ is the long lost grandchild of the 3310, still powering on even after being drilled through. 😆
Too true
🌚
Well basically drilled through the main camera lens, so no motherboard damage, just backpanel screen and camera damaged, thats an "easy" fix relatively.
@@TerranigmaQuintet yea if you drill through any phone camera, it might be fine.
@@TerranigmaQuintet That's what I thought. If it would have been drilled through the motherboard, the whole phone would be destroyed.
he wasn’t kidding… that green is beautiful!
Yes. I had choice between black and green, green looked more refreshing and different so I went with it.
Certainly and truly then comes marble white... But this prism or topaz green is amazing like the same lg velvet topaz green color....
Tip: you can use a wide and clear adhesive tape at the back of the phone to prevent the glass shards from scattering.
Yup phone repair guru taught me that
Good idea man
But it will be even uglier.
@@art_antiques4311 yeah but would u rather have glass in ur hands?
That made my tip very hard
Maybe the original owner figures that he'd bricked it, so chose to destroy it so no one else could use it. Then got remorseful and sold it on, figuring whatever he or she could make, would be enough.
Why would you do that? That makes no sense. Why not try to get it fixed? And why would you care that other people could repair and use it? And if you didn't want that you could simply not sell it.
I think the person just has aggression issues and got super triggered by something.
@@CaptainChrom i bet the user is an Indian
@@HanxoHaxashi tf?
@@HanxoHaxashi wut?
@@divyamthakur i mean the previous owner is an Indian. Just thinking tho
Oh "prism green", not "prison green". Looks beautiful.

@Alexios Giovanovits Me too. But it made no sense, except Samsung decided to open up the market of contraband phones and bundled it with a shiv.
It is beautiful and the video here doesn't really do it justice. Sadly mine is in a protective case usually so I don't get to see it.
I thought is misheard at first time)
Used to have my doubts about Hugh getting his phones from TechRax but now I have none
@@will-fi3qp no it’s a joke…
@@will-fi3qp it was a joke
@@will-fi3qp t'was a joke
@@will-fi3qp it was very clearly a joke.
@@will-fi3qp I’m pretty sure it was a joke.
OMG, that has to be one of the worst condition phones I've ever seen (outside of TechRax abuse), and one of the most miraculous (and amazing) restorations! Good job!
Omg it is u u are so unique
This looks like it could be a Business’s phone that when they got rid of it they drilled it. And with it having a custom Firmware it could of been using an encryption protocol before booting into the os.
I bet the previous owner was an Indian
why'd they drill it though?
@@ryanhorie9650 To destroy all sensitive data on it. But they obviously failed in doing so.
@I killed that beard guy dude i only commented on the comments 2x. Your opinion doesn't make sense. I know what are the traits indians have
@I killed that beard guy dude are you an indian? Why being offended?
This is how companies should proceed to preserve the environment, by making their smartphones easily repairable.
You dumbass,that is all things of the past which is why no modern Smartphone is repairable anymore
well the parts being thrown away does cause damage to the environment, but it's not as bad.
I really wish you would include a summary in your video showing what you paid for all the parts in total so we can get a better idea of the repair. Great video as always! it's amazing the phone still functioned
You should've mentioned how much you spend on the repairs
I know the display for that phone is around 300$ usd
@@kelvs45 used == chances of burn ins.
@@liftusup9208 that's if you get badly used system (for example: You got a used gtx 760 then you cooled it properly and used it for years without a burn)
Yea that's the thing when I kinda want to DIY my old phone to look new but then realized the part is rather expensive.
Thanks for your vids, dude. I really appreciate people who spend their time fixing stuff instead of senselessly destroying things.
S10 series by far has the cleanest main camera design for me.
S21 series is growing into me.
S21 series has grown into me such that ingot myself one. Amazing device and good camera overall.
Still I love S10+ for the Best camera design 😍
Honestly really like the camera design of my Note 20 Ultra 5G 😅
yes, the s20 series is so ugly
Yup the s10 design is the best thus far
Honestly, the sight of that headphone jack flying off the shell was the highlight. A good Apple shitpost or two could be made from that.
That's definitely TechRax durability tested it.
5:13 Is Knox ticked?
I wonder the same
If any partition was altered (which they most likely were as the device was bricked, likely due to a failed root attempt) then most likely yes, Knox was tripped
The bootloader was unlocked -> Knox trips itself when the bootloader unlocks
Yow they upgraded the Punch Hole camera to Drilled Hole Screen
Lmao! Underrated comment
"drills at a level 6 with deeper holes at a level 7"
The fact that they were only one _centimeter_ away from permanently ruining the phone is nothing short of a miracle. Whoever did it was either extremely lucky or purposefully didn't aim for the motherboard.
Lesson learned: if you’re angry and want to drill your phone always drill where camera is located
I drop my phone when I'm angry
A few years back I bought a phone with all the cameras drilled out of it, but the reason it was drilled out was because the previous owner worked in a high security military job and all phones had to either not enter the base, or have the cameras all disabled physically.
Nice rebuild on this one though.
It's crazy how ridiculously people could go far in ruining their phones. Anyway, very nice video, as always! That prism green color looks fantastic too!
Fortunately Samsung is the new Nokia. I mean, just look at how that S10+ survived having a hole drilled in it. Tell me a Nokia 3310 would have survived that shit.
Talk about a high repairability score there. Easy to take apart and only one screw bit and screw length required versus Apple's mixed bits and lengths.
Yep it might be the case that user botched custom rom flash and in anger destroyed the phone. Sadly this might be another case of manufacturers taking away option to unlock bootloader and flash their custom roms. Nokia, Huawei, Lenovo are all locking down their buggy software and then refuse to update it or refuse to fix the bugs.
I wish people would work on their anger issues before destroying things around them.
I tried to make my Nokia faster but then I had to reflash the og software making me angry and tired.
"are all locking down their buggy software and then refuse to update it or refuse to fix the bugs" is good enough reason to have anger issues to this sort of extent to be honest
Worked on a LG K51 knowing some parts were going to suck (Transferring Volume Button Ribbon Cables and stuff like that) But i PRAISE most android manufacturers for keeping Phillip head screws and decently easy adhesive (even the original battery adhesive wasn’t bad and came out with no bends or kinks and no heat needed just very light prying around the sides)
The previous owner took "building a Minecraft house" way too seriously
I mean this is probably more believable than Vietnamese kids finding a rusty PC and a rusty video card on some junk yard by just walking there and then "restoring" it by randomly poking at it with the multimeter and soldering some random stuff, but still.
Note : Stuff like Samsung Pay will no longer work on the phone due to a e-fuse burning when the bootloader was unlocked so it doesn’t revert back even if you relock it.
Edit: fixed typo and more clarification. stuff like this is common for stuff like disabling downgrades (xbox 360)
That’s crazy! You mean to tell me that Samsung put some sort of self-destruct mechanism into these phones? I take it back, that’s not crazy, that’s insane!
@@BlindMansRevenge2002 No, it is NOT self-destruct. Samsung simply put a fuse designed to "burn" as a security mechanism to see whether or not the phone's security has been compromised.
The phone will work just fine, but some stuff like Samsung Pay aren't gonna work since the software knows it's been compromised.
@@InferiorSerperior why even is samsung so against bootloader unlocking? they even made the under display camera break when unlocking the bootloader on the z fold 3
@@aray7152 maybe it's for user security or they want people to keep using samsung services.
BUT honestly how could a goddamn camera be disabled ?
@@InferiorSerperior buuuut you can fool the software to think it's not compromised while it actually is (MagiskHide does just that, it hides the root and bootloader unlock status from the OS)
Once you tripped Knox, there's no going back.
I think you can talk to Jerry and try and repair his bent and burned phones, that will make a nice videos, thank you!
The collab I didn’t know I needed
@@taptapuyo2714 imagine all those phones cracked burned bent camera s cracked being repaired :))
We need the phones which he durability tested but didnt break so that by simply changing the screen the phones scrstches and burn test marks can be removed
@@suchirghuwalewala too easy, I mean he just fixed a drilled phone, be serious, let s raise the thing a bit
Im lost for words you fixed it bloody excellent mate 👍
A hammer, a drill; what's next? A screwdriver? A nail gun? A bb gun? I mean, wtf are people doing to these phones?
Try repairing phones from demolition ranch
Maybe they're from Samsung's R&D
Its because samsung sucks thats why they destroy it 😂
@@Vladimir-Putin-1952 Then iPhone sucks too because screen in iPhone and some chips are made by samsung
@ is that all u wanna say samsung aka bts fan?😂😂 Apple buy them not steal.. samsung doesn’t even make their own OS.. they borrow the android OS from google lol.. big company but cant even make their own OS 🤣🤣.. everyone also dont wanna buy their Exynos chip samsung because they sucks hahahahahah
I still have my 2 year old Galaxy S10E in the prism green color. The choice you did in changing the color to the prism green was awesome.
I was so annoyed when I went to get my s10+ that they didn't have the prism green option, too impatient to wait i ended up with the standard white/iridescent color. Prism green is the best color option.
That phone was basically shot in the eye. Gives me chills
Attempting to gain root access is something I would not do unless I needed to do something that I could not do in regular or safe modes. Not even installing non-original software on my own. Lesson here is: consider having a professional perform this task for you; they know how to do it safely.
absolutely beautifully repaired with great attention to detail, love watching these! well done mate.
Nokia 3310 to this S10 Plus :
Son. I am proud. 😂
Insanely lucky that the original owner missed everything important.
He got so close to the logic board and the mother board. Looks like it needs a new camera screen and a LCD and a frame
@@GasolineGuy your comment makes no sense at all.
@@GasolineGuy it's a amoled display
1:10 its asking you to end its misery 😂
The owners friends and family need to watch their backs, who ever they are they are really messed up or a spoiled brat
Or a middle aged dad having a bad day
I'm thinking someone got a samsung instead of an apple.
JerryRigEverything when he sees this:
Zack: With deeper grooves on a level...oh my
It worries me that people like that exist… unable to fix something so they rage and drill a hole into it!
They do say the stupid ones always get angry :) good fix mate, look forward to more
The drilling was so precise it looks like a phone with a custom security install that was disabled with the drilling on purpose. The seller probably obtained it from a bulk sell off of various devices and computer equipment from a government department or business with high security. A medical company I used to work for would have us drill or remove any storage devices or anything with specific identity linking it to the business from stuff when we would sell them off.
But they kinda failed here
More plausible is: People like to drill centered, so that the drill does not run away. A camera is inviting as it is the ideal centering spot to begin drilling.
You should mention the prices of individual components you bought to repair the device
Worked for a Samsung authorized service agent.
That display packagine looks exactly like the service packs we used to get, so I'd imagine it's genuine!
I agree with you. I just got my S20 Ultra back from Samsung service. The midframe has the plastic protectors and the display itself has the original screen protector attached.
It's impressive that the original display even worked given the damage it had!
iPhone: if you open me i wont work
Samsung: you can drill trough me and ill still be working
0:35 I thought were gonna have an interview with the guy.
6:45 Do I understand this correctly you flashed a phone with no way of charging it and left with only 3% xD ? Interesting approach.
“Bro, have you tried rice?”
the guy was lucky he even got to the bootloader unlock screen. Qualcomm versions dont even allow unlocking!
That's bullshit. Android always allows unlocking, regardless of CPU. It's the carrier that sometimes blocks the unlocking of the bootloader.
Man that colour! 🔥 Love it. It's sad that Samsung stopped making "cool" colours like these now
Such a satisfying video to watch! You’re the best Hugh!
Why is he hiding the software used to flash? It's Odin.
He do not want anyone to blame him if someone bricked their phone by flashing by Odin.
Trying to hide Odin is like trying to hide where milk comes from lmfao. Millions of people have already seen Odin, for more than 10 years now it has been literally the first thing you get when it comes to custom software on Samsung.
Imagine the the guy who drilled through the phone is watching this💀
The fact you paid $34 USD for a broken S10 and fully refurbished it amazes me
47 USD
Replacement screens for these phones are very expensive, he paid 34 USD for it but probably spent hundreds on the screens.
The service packs are at best $220 dollars and the cameras about $30 so in total he's looking at closer to $285 without shipping or taxes.
An open box/excellent used S10 on eBay costs about $290 with free shipping.
A whole new phone would be much more practical
Imagine seeing that boot screen at night and reading the red text
I dont know everybody does get this feeling but i would get that head/brain burning thing
I've never seen that color! It's so pretty!
Well the knox is tripped now
How perfectly did this guy drill through the camera whole. I wish I could be as perfect as him 😂
Dude lol
The content creator drilled the hole, not the owner :)
@@noneof5492 wtf do you mean by that??👀
@@adityanarayansreejith9362 That the dude who bought the phone drilled the hole, so he could make some content.
Not saying he bought a new phone and drilled a hole through it.
Saying he did buy a not working phone, then drilled a hole in it, to get a title...
@@noneof5492Why do you think some one did this for a video? And so did you see the video or something?
@@adityanarayansreejith9362 Doesn't really matter if he did or not, atleast if it was broke already ^^
I just think he drilled a hole himself to get a title lol
I don't blame Samsung for needing that temperature sensor hooked up to properly have the device work, just look at the note7 lol :)
Should've tried booting with the drilled camera after the repair to see what the phone complains when the camera app is opened!
It would be saying "Camera Failed"
I love it how he says and we're done he says it the same way in every video and it s just as satisfying I don't know why
wish i can get any phones you had even if its broken im using a 3rd hand redmi 5a
love your vids.keep it up
Wow I have a Redmi 5a too XD
The Old Owner watching: i regret the day i did that to my Phone
Hugh, where do you find these broken phones? I tried finding everywhere but there are none. Please help me, I'm trying to start doing this as a hobby and hopefully one day I can start a business repairing phones
Try eBay, and search "broken phone".
@@banksiasong i tried but every time i search for it, I get about 8 results and the phones are just very old models. Is there any settings that will allow me to get better results?
I'd say these phones are snapped up as soon as they're listed for the same reason. I'd recommend checking often to find a listing that was just listed.
@@man.thegreat
Good grief.
OK, so buy a recent one, go all psycho-man on it, and then try to fix it.
Green? I have the Flamingo Pink one and I love it.
Hugh, are these people doing this to outdo each other to be featured on your channel?
7:56 it looked like you removed the little sponge borders around the cameras are these meant to be removed?
Me: Watching on my S10+ 😨
Same here bro
5:56 I really hope that person isn't in a relationship. Like technology frustrates me all the time but to put a drill through a device?? Thats messed up 😐😐😰😰
Watching this on my S10
As an s10+ owner i am ready to commit a hate crime
3:19 YEET
4:28 "but as long as it works I'll be happy with it" ah yes, the old techie proverb 😂😂
Wow, it takes a very mature person to drill right through a smart phone.
@Quantum Nah he’ll have the square root of maturity of the 36 year old
Custom ROM user here. I think the first and second rule of rooting/installing a custom ROM is to have patience and to have backups. The original owner didn't seem to follow these two rules.
worst thing you could have is hard-brick or losing sensitive data (like IMEI)
I understand why it was drilled. Why samsung tell you what to and not to do with your phone. They should focus on delivering major updates for more than 2-3 year to their flagship phone instead of making users life pain when you want custom os or root installed
umm excuse me S10 still has 2 more years of major updates left..
@@RandomGuy-om1vy Only security updates. It's getting its third (and last - according to samsung) android version update soon.
@@Xilog Then I dont see the reason for a normal user to custom rom it, samsung gave 3 years of major updates and security updates upcoming. they did their job well. Atleast their devices are repairable and bootloaders can be unlocked, i have seen companies that are worse.
@@RandomGuy-om1vy that's true. Also, the bootloaders are locked on US models.
@@Xilog hmm yeah i wish they allowed to do that officially but since next galaxy is going to feature exynos everywhere i think that might be fixed.
For those of you who don't want to watch the video: he still fix it, he's Hugh Jeffreys.
How can someone drill through their phone?
They were stupid
That prism green is stunning to look at like wow!
Christ, compared to an iPhone that looked like night and day. Pretty cool of Sammy on that one I suppose.
Literally done the same thing with my s10+ repair and made it the prism green model. Only issue mine had was old screen from previous owner had been smashed. Original battery and cameras worked fine so just needed a new screen assembly and rear glass replacement which are really easy and only take me about 30mins all up from start to finishing closing up the phone.
I don't understand how you got the adhesive to stick so easily. I did a battery replacement on my s10e, and the new adhesive just won't stick. I've tried heating the glass, book weights, etc but nothing works. I'm just using my phone case to hold it together.
Hugh, given that you are sponsored by ifixit I am surprised that you haven't started using Tesa tape for double sided adhesive. Ifixit did a video with Tesa a few years ago and thus brought Tesa to the mainstream market. Tesa is (acclaimed by Tesa) an oem for adhesive applications, meaning manufacturers of devices use them to properly adhere their devices together. I've been a professional technician for just over 6 years, and Tesa adhesive (black tape) is the best I've come across, aside from 3m VHB. Tesa is very good for installing batteries and holding back glass on for some models, but is especially good for iPad glass replacement.
Meanwhile, a small ding to my 65 inch LG C9 OLED TV has rendered it completely useless, wont even power on... FML. Nice vid, as always!
It's fascinating how much this phone looks like the newer Pixels in terms of the interior design: one-piece motherboard running down one side, battery occupying the other space, and cameras horizontally placed near the top but with the board running around it...Ik Samsung moved on from this design from the S20 but we might know where Google found the design
as a s10+ user I really like that you have done with it.
something that fears mw ith this phone is usb charging port wthich is soldered to the main board.
I love your videos of people doing REALLY dumb stuff to their phone.
Apple could never have an iPhone that survives THAT
Pro tip : don't lock the bootloader before flashing , you could have turn on frp , and the worst scenario is that the phone had a custom recovery .. it's done , the phone boots to recovery to wipe everything before locking. And it won't work because you have a custom recovery , so the phone will stay looping to recovery without wiping anything . And there is no way to flash the stock recovery if you're locked .... Happened with me with a pixel 2xl and i got no way around it.
Dude really unrooted a phone that should be rooted
reflashing stock is the way to go when it's bricked, and/or you're selling it
As a galaxy s10 + owner I am sad to see someone drilling a hole trough this beautiful device. Yeah it isn't the fastest anymore but it still works better and faster than my S7 when it was this age. Have my s10 + for over 2 years and still love it.
