I have an old galaxy s5 with android 4.4.2 that i can run only on the charger i kept it in my Garage alongside my ThinkPad X230 and my (then) broken Latitude 3330
sorry to tell u but there is a really rare case to find a phone to power on with out battary and only wall power cuz battary actually works as a jumper and if u want to power on the phone without a battary u will need to brige the 2 contacts with a cable or something but i wont recommend it cuz it can damage your phone in result u will lose all your data so dont try this and if u are going try it at your own risk i dont have any responsibility if your house burns donw or anything else happened.
Xiaomi devices are extremely popular here in Spain, it surprised me that you don’t know them. I believe they’re actually the most sold brand here by far. Truly great devices at mind blowing prices
Iron Man I have a Mi 9T but my daily driver is an iPhone XR. Nevertheless, I couldn’t care less about the opinion of a random preteen wanker on the internet
@@legend39662 so you're one of those who drank chloride because Trump says right ?... I see, leave him alone guys, he's not that smart to know about tech stuff.
@The Freaky Stranger yet they use phones from bbk which is a Chinese organization that owns a lot of smartphone makers. This includes India's heavy hitters: Xiaomi, oppo, vivo, realme, OnePlus.
Xiaomi is actually a Chinese electronics company which is wildly popular in India and South Asian Countries because of their low prices and great specs.
Hugh: "Blackberry Priv is the only android slider I know of" Xiaomi Mi Mix 3: Am I a Joke to you? Though seriously, Mi Mix 3 is pretty cool. I guess Xiaomi just not interested in selling their devices in Australia, in other countries, especially in Europe and Asia they are HUGE and make a ton of stuff. From smartphones, laptops and TVs to suitcases and robots.
@@immanuelhermon I have a OnePlus 6T and it has a crack on the screen when I fell off on a road when I was getting out of a taxi. Got ugly scars on both knees and on elbow. Still consider phone's screen being the worst damage I took then
@@OmegaEnvych mi mix 3 is even sadder. It has the "swipe to unlock on the bottom", the rest is green. It fell from 1.2 meters. Now that same friend's galaxy note 10 plus fell 2 big floors without a screen protector and didn't even get a scratch.
@@immanuelhermon Well, my phone with a crack is a second one. First one fell on a floor screen down. Didn't have a single scratch but frontal camera broke. Gladly store agreed to repair or replace device on warranty. Also, several years ago I accidentally dropped company's iPhone 4s on my work and its screen was completely shattered. Thing is that you can be simply unlucky and get your phone completely destroyed with falling from one height yet in similar circumstances, other phone will be fine and not get a single scratch. I even managed to destroy a screen on the Nokia phone. This was last non-"smartphone" I ever used btw. Phone was inside its sleeve inside of the winter jacket. And its matrix was completely destroyed. Yet at the same time Samsung Tablet I had during that fall (I t was in the winter in the early morning and there was a ton of ice) didn't get a single scratch. So my luck with phones is VERY weird.
"some company called xiaomi" I'm surprised someone as experienced with phones as you hasn't heard of them. They're very popular, just not in every market.
Thanks to your videos Hugh I was able to figure out and perform a motherboard swap on a 2017 Galaxy A5 for a friend. The phone is now working as good as new! Keep up the awesome work!
Blackberry also has their own test app, it's called "Blackberry Virtual Doctor" or something like this, I don't really remember already but it may be essential while testing the phone. Also I should say that Priv often has an issue with primary mic, that was the reason I stopped using it as spare mic is really hard to find and I haven't found any that would work with it (tried to install different Samsung and etc MEMS mics)
Just a thought, you have 435k subs on TH-cam alone, I love to see your work and would normally shy away from repaired or "refurbished" phones but would consider getting one from you just for the quality detailed work you do. Don't let opportunities pass you by! ;)
You can separate the samsung s4 shattered glass easily and then just glue a new one in place. I just replaced the glass on one, few years ago. Heat it, and then slide a plastic play cards between the display and broken glass. Only be careful when you reach the bottom buttons to separate them with care. Then i just applied some glue on the sides, not on the entire display. And it works till this day. There are videos on yt. You can get a better price for it then.
I thank you hugh. I bought a lot of 25 phones: 20 iphones & 5 android phones. I was able to fix all of m and got all the icloud locked unlockes by the previous owners. I watch your videos just to see how to fix cellphones. If i could donate to you i would. Greetings from belgium
Can you please make a tutorial of how someone could get started in this hobby. Like where to get started what tools what phones to practice on, so on so forth
You’d get almost everything from iFixit. They sell all the tools and parts you’ll need, and they also have tutorials on how to fix stuff. To get started, you’d probably want to start with older devices. Newer ones require more skill. Maybe try an iPhone 5 or something?
Oh also Hugh when you get the priv working and you go to use it make sure you buy a case for it. The heat from your hands heats up the processor in it and it drains the battery something fierce. I put a case on mine and it works perfect with no heating issues. Just a friendly tip!
Wait.. How do factory reset those phones via recovery, without triggering FRP (Factory Reset Protection)? Usually it would ask you to log into the Google account that has been previously used on that phone
Xiaomi in India is very popular though India get Xiaomi's Redmi brand devices and they are budget friendly and very good devices. Xiaomi is the brain behind the famous POCO phone which was only released and available in India.
Posted a message to you via your website. Perhaps someone here can help as well 🙄? Hi Hugh, how are you? I'm Brian in the UK. Looking at your videos, I regret just before I found your channel, I found a damaged J6 I think it was broken. It had been run over. I didn't realise that with some effort i could have possibly repaired it. Also, I have an issue with my S5. Sometimes when I get a call, a dialogue box says phone has stopped working, and I can't get rid of it until I restart it. I cleared the cache, by it continues to happen on occasion. I'm loathe to do a factory reset. What would your advice be please? I would love to be able to do what you do. However, I have lots of phones I can't seem to throw away even though they are quite old. Thanks Brian Morgan Ps. Hope you don't mind me asking?

"They were very poorly packaged with no protection." .......Hugh they were broken

You can separate the samsung s4 shattered glass easily and then just glue a new one in place.
I just replaced the glass on one, few years ago.
Heat it, and then slide a plastic play cards between the display and broken glass. Only be careful when you reach the bottom buttons to separate them with care.
Then i just applied some glue on the sides, not on the entire display. And it works till this day.
There are videos on yt.
You can get a better price for it then.

Cracked out the old ifixit kit and fixed an s8!

Another Hugh Jeffreys Video , It's been a while Jeff. Good work.
The priv was the single worst phone I've ever owned in my life ! I snapped it in half out of rage after months of issues and 2 replacements.
Amazing video.Very well explained
what a great video,, you’re so professional,, i love your content
all the people following you, are lowkey weird asmr fans, your videos giving some kink to all of us
I'd love to see a video on that obliterated s8 just to see the extent of the damages
hey . great videos . please share with me a link where you get the bulk phones offer
This guy is having so many phones unboxed in one video and I have only 2 phones yet till now
Jeffrey is basically a tech surgeon
And only thing i will fix is my broken samsung a20e with a broken screen while this guy has fixed thousands of phones
I actually am watching this on my blackberry priv. Love this phone!
Oh also Hugh when you get the priv working and you go to use it make sure you buy a case for it. The heat from your hands heats up the processor in it and it drains the battery something fierce. I put a case on mine and it works perfect with no heating issues. Just a friendly tip!
Hugh, you’re a magician! I wish you were in the States!

11:42 Which Moto phone doesn't turn on the one on the left or the one on the right?
The Sony Xperia pro and mini pro also have sliding keyboards but they are much older.

when you reset the phones wath you do if have a google acount?
I hope you make videos to all of the phones ;) all phones will be happy
Can yo make a video on how to buy tech lot please

That BlackBerry is still usable despite the damage it had I would prefer it over no phone at all
Can't wait to see that blackberry priv sorted
