I followed this video and was able to successfully repair my Note 4. It charges perfectly now and everything still works. I was quoted $230 to fix this phone and was told that there was a 99% chance I would destroy it if I tried to fix it myself. This video was a lifesaver. I will emphasize that it is SUPER important to take your time with the heat gun and let the adhesive get nice and melted before you try to force anything. Go low and slow, get in there with the plastic guitar pick tool, and it will pop right out of the frame, but if you try to apply force before the adhesive is softened then you will probably just end up breaking your screen. Remember the one screw on the motherboard and the one screw on the charge port. Remember to disconnect and reattach all flex cables and antennas so you don't break things while trying to fix your phone. Be careful removing the connectors for the old charge port as they're probably stuck on there pretty good. Go low and slow again with the heat gun, gently pry the screen away just enough to give yourself room to work, and slowly and carefully peel away the connectors. Make sure you don't tear the flex cable/rubber attachments away leaving the sticky contacts stuck to the inside of the phone, or you will have to scrape them off to be able to attach the new charge port. The contacts for the new charge port need to be placed just right in order for the phone to charge. If you reassemble the phone and it's not charging, or it's trying to charge but displaying an error symbol on the screen, then the contacts are not placed correctly. You will need to carefully take the phone back apart, fold the charge port back down (being extremely careful not to tear the flex cables), peel the connectors back off to remove the new charge port, and try to install it again, taking great care to line up the two holes on the charge port with the two raised areas on the phone and to place the contacts exactly where they're supposed to go. If you've installed your new charge port but your screen isn't turning on, don't panic just yet. There's a good chance that your screen is unplugged from the motherboard, and applying gentle but firm pressure to the upper portion of the motherboard over the two connection sites will allow it to reconnect.
Jesus, 230 dollars? I got mine fixed for 85 dollars flat at a repair shop in town. I don't know where you went but they were seriously trying to screw you. Wow.
Hard to believe that in less than 15 mins, the job is done but our local mall wants $100 for this. Bought the part myself for $12 bucks and doing it at home. Thanks.
Sweet!!! I was planning on soldering in a new micro USB port but after watching this I checked eBay and the new charging port board assembly is only like $6!!!!! Sweet
I followed this tutorial (in addition to one other which showed more clearly what to do) as precisely as I could. I took my time with EVERY detail and somehow my screen won't turn on now. In addition to that, my phone seems to be in an infinite boot loop where it pretends it's turning on but simply can't. Unfortunately, the phone is now trash. PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE AND GET THIS REPAIRED PROFESSIONALLY! I understand this won't happen to everyone, but damn... I thought I was doing it exactly right!
Everyone learns by doing repairs, including the professionals. The repair would have cost you as much as to buy the same Note 4 over again, so you have lost only the cost of the part even if you do not figure out what you did slightly different. (Those black screws are almost certainly grounding screws that are vital to reinstall. I learned the importance of grounding on my very first computer which came in kit form and did not include enough grounding cables.) It also pays like some viewers did to watch more than one video of the repair, since each may have different emphasis and failures in recording the actual key work. My own guess is you did not properly align the buttons before the glue step. If so you can salvage the phone with a new part and more care, or spend the cost of the professional repair to replace the phone. Phones improve so fast even the cheapest new one is likely faster, but I want to do the repairs to learn, since I already on one phone spent $60 just to get an estimate when in fact the type of repair needed was not even a service offered by the shop.
@@scottbrackett5033 I suspect it is also possible he did not check the alignment of the buttons before glueing the part down since what he is describing I believe can be caused by a stuck button, which even causes problems on soda vending machines.
I wanted to replace my sm-n910t charging port, but I'm kinda confused - can i use charging port from another GN4 model like, for example sm-n910A or sm-n910F? Or do i need specific one for N910T? thanks!
Sadly I agree with a number of others, the area that is important (the bit being worked on) often drifts out of frame so we can't see what is happening, and the camera auto focus hunts in and out making the working area impossible to see clearly.
Great video, Just what I have been looking for. This is what separates a normal tech from a smart tech. Most people I asked said I would have to separate the entire screen assembly from the midframe, which if you have had to replace the screen assembly on a note 4 you have seen the copper foil on the s pen sensor is glued to the mid frame and it is a pain to remove without damage to the foil.
thanks for the video. Is it risky to open the front part of the cellphone? after you put it all back, is it necessary to put adhesive again? wouldn't it fall off all of a sudden?
sou just made the other 10 videos i watched obsolete and with much less risk. question tho had this phone been disassembled before, you didn't heat the glue and it popped right open?
Just out of curiosity. If the microphone on a note 4 isn't working, the charge port assembly needs to be replaced as it is integrated, correct? Thanks for the video, I managed to take my note 4 apart and just waiting on the parts
Thanks for the video, just replaced mine in 30 mins, everything seems to works after putting back together and hope it will fix the rebooting problem with can't read mmc error. :) We'll see!
actually i have an issue with my note4 charger gets attached but no fast charging taking place is there a need to change the port.?one more issue is that the phone does not get attached to the laptop charging shown no attachement to laptop
my note 4 is charging very slow even with quick charged mode turned on. but the thing is that my phone isnt displaying any quick charge notification * Charging very slowly * Charging status indicates USB Charging * isnt recognized by pc so i can see my files inside the phone, only charges while connected even though settings as set to act as a media storage when it is connected by usb * tried reseting phone and updating, clearing cache, & still nothing * tried various chargers and USB * also other batteries will replacing the charge dock port fix my problem?
i instead went to one of these places ( www.repairsvc.com/ ) and they told me that my mother board and charging port was messed up, so they replaced my motherboard, charging port, and gave me another battery all for 70$ i believe , and yes , that included labor and parts, really really cheap and they had it ready in about 3 days so it was well worth the wait!
Hi, I have a question. I picked up my phone (note 4) from repair (professional place), charging port replacement. I am not very happy. Entire bottom of the screen is lifted above the frame, it is flexing and home button is below the screen surface. Can something be done with this?, or entire screen has to be replaced. Thanks in advance.
hi, the fast charging wasn't working so I replaced the charging port on my note 4 but the fast charging still not working, what else could it be the problem?
i have galaxy note 4 N910C. From malaysia. After upgraded to Marshmallow 6.0.1. my phone battery unable to full charge.. most of the time stopped at 82%.. and battery drain super fast... every 2 minutes drop 1% battery. is this my charging port problem? or my battery problem? this phone only 1 year+.
1:59 You glazed over the critical LCD removal step. Understand you've done it before and it would have taken a little effort to cover how you did it. Just saying "give a little heat" and popping your previously completed example apart doesn't convey how to perform this step without ruining the cell phone. I only watched this video as it had the most views. Thank goodness there are much better videos on TH-cam.
After chaning the micro USB board, fast charging not appears. And the charging is very slow. Slower than normal charging. Perhaps only 400mA, 500mA "safety charging"?!? Slower charging than discharging with active system and energy safe mode O_o.
yes...the video is kinda fake..you gotta plug the screen back into the backside of the main board...you will most likely destroy your screen but you need to remove the screen completely and then plug the screen back into the backside of the mainboard...
furthermore the mainboard didn't need removed at all..you could've just popped the bottom of the mainboard out slightly and slid the connector under and just pushed it back together...takes much less time even
Bruce1980 yrs I know the mayonnaise didn't need removed, but I had watched another video where they took off the circuit boards and that disconnected the screen, I didn't take of the Maoists, but after several ttys of truing to figure out why the screen want working, I cracked it, so now I got to find a new screen and sensitizer(i think I need this). thank you for your response.
Coud you help me please I have a problem with my note 4 it restart himself , freezing and lagging !!! sometimes it doesn't turn on at all I must to swipe out the battery and put in back on and sometimes I have the download mode ''Do not turn off '' MMC_failure_read I changed the battery but I didn't solve the problem
so this video didnt explain that you need to make sure your screen doesnt come off without your LCD screen, cause min is now super fucked up and i have to get that replaced now. thanks for not explaining that and waisting my time, much appreciated
If you don't want to open your phone, I recommend buy a Wireless Battery Back Cover for your Note 4. It's only 20 buck or less. But if you know how to repair or open it, go for it.
NEVER watch just one video of how to do any repair. There are several reasons for that. This video demonstrates one by just showing fingers instead of what is being done for part of the repair, which should have caused the person to edit the video, but he apparently thought the work in question was obvious. What is obvious though to an experienced repair technician is not obvious to everyone. The other reason to watch the repair being done by different people is you may discover convenient shortcuts or tricks. One I looked at without audio was so unclear and speeded up that I couldn't tell if the technician was using a rubber tool to break the glue seals or a heat gun. It is also a good idea to watch at least one of the relevant repair videos before buying the parts, since it is clear I should replace the glass at the same time and the part did not come with glue to reseal the front of the phone, which no doubt provides some protection from such as light rain.

Where can u buy them
The camera placement for this video is epic, good job guy
Thank you :)
I followed your video step by step and my phone is now charging!! Thank you so much!!! Bless you;)
The most important part he says and I can't even see what he's doing...thank god there are other videos out there...
Sweet!!! I was planning on soldering in a new micro USB port but after watching this I checked eBay and the new charging port board assembly is only like $6!!!!! Sweet
Next time make sure you position the camera correctly so that it shows what the heck your doing. Thanks for the video.
Thank you, there is no need then re-glue the screen? The left over glue would be enough?
I followed this tutorial (in addition to one other which showed more clearly what to do) as precisely as I could. I took my time with EVERY detail and somehow my screen won't turn on now.

for the note 4 n910h is there an alternitive port i can use?
HI, do you know where the liquid damage indicator is located? My note 4 looks like yours with the redish dot and no white square. thanks.
Thank you, fixed my note 4 today :) Wouldn't charge anymore. Easy fix.
thanks for the video. Is it risky to open the front part of the cellphone? after you put it all back, is it necessary to put adhesive again? wouldn't it fall off all of a sudden?

I have a Note 4 Edge, it will be the same method ?
If i order the for the Note 4 the charge port it will be the same ?
Thanks
Hello, is the N910F or the N910C compatible with the N910H ???
Just out of curiosity. If the microphone on a note 4 isn't working, the charge port assembly needs to be replaced as it is integrated, correct? Thanks for the video, I managed to take my note 4 apart and just waiting on the parts
Awesome vid! Fixed my Mic issue No Problem! Keep up the good work!
So did everything you did but my screen is not responding. What connection would that be responsible for
Great work man i have a note 4 910f that charge only from a pc or tv ... but not from the wall charger any ideas plz thx !!!!!?
Thanks for the video, just replaced mine in 30 mins, everything seems to works after putting back together and hope it will fix the rebooting problem with can't read mmc error. :) We'll see!
Did it ever fix the rebooting problem? That was the issue i was having with mine and was considering changing the charging outlet out...
actually i have an issue with my note4 charger gets attached but no fast charging taking place is there a need to change the port.?one more issue is that the phone does not get attached to the laptop charging shown no attachement to laptop
Thank you soooo much for this video.
Will I need double sided tape to reassemble the phone?
does you lift the screen without heating it up?
keep the phone in the picture. so I can see what your doing.
where can I buy a new charger port for my Samsung Galaxy note 4?
on ebay
amazon or ebay
How much does the charging board cost?
Can this part causes green dot screen issues.

barbaro que video
debe ser para que las personas rompan las pantallas de note 4
ok, I got it all done and back together, now my screen won't turn on. Was there something I missed?

I changed the battery but I didn't solve the problem
wakelock app from playstore. set to level 4. temporary solution
Apparently only motherboard replacement fixes it.
100% motherboard is dying
It is the same load flex for the note 4 edge
What about the battery connector? Absolutely no videos on that anywhere
The music is so dope!!!
i try to do this and once everything was put back together the camara wont work its says WARNING CAMARA FAILED someone help me
I was going to take off my phone apart but I found on eBay a wall charger for batteries for the Note 4 it's only $10
after changing the usb port the fast charging is not working, How to fix it?
so this video didnt explain that you need to make sure your screen doesnt come off without your LCD screen, cause min is now super fucked up and i have to get that replaced now. thanks for not explaining that and waisting my time, much appreciated
how much would this cost for some1 to fix it
I was quoted about $200.
THANK U, THANK U VERY VERY VERY MUCH :)
Nice job, thank you.
Thanks very much bro

Keep moving the operation from camera view...
what heat?.......I didn't see any heat application
thanks... it makes my glass crack >_< >_
The SM-N910C charge port is the same N910F
Informative, but gd the cameraman sucking snot the whole time was distracting af. Thanks all the same though.

Couldn't see everything because he kept taking the phone out of frame
this video is horrible. we can't see half of the shit. thanks for the help!!!!!!
BrandLegacy if you have to see it all in order to understand it....... Don’t try it... 😂
I cracked my screen a bit and when i turn it on it no longer works, FML! somebody please help!!!
Juliane Escobar I had to replace my screen. 150$ was the cheapest I found but they did a great job.
You don't just pry harder, you release the clips, especially the one at the top of the battery compartment
I guess it can be done without removing the motherboard
super
thanks!!!!!!!
Most of the actions weren't captured because it wasn't pointed at the camera
ممكن ترجمة للعربي
It seems to be the video I need to see. But you move so much that I couldn't see what you doing.
STAY IN FRAME PLEASE
You keep taking the phone out of view
cant see past your thumbs....
Jakbyś jeszcze umiał filmować byłoby wszystko OK
Thats scary af
my phone is dead
you probable need to remove your screen to plug in the mainboard to the screen...this video didn't show that fact
oh.. Well i will know that next time thanks
2 times dude
Terrible Video...
