After 8 hours of not charging I figured I needed to get at the battery but I didn't have the tool shown in another video. I found this video, got a Pepsi bottle and came back to watch again before cutting it and the tablet started charging in its own! I'm saving this video. My Samsung tab a started acting up about charging right after the warranty expired! I'm sure I'll need this tip again soon. Thank you!
Thank you, man ! My Samsung tablet A was frozen, would not turn on, would not respond to either soft of hard reset. Using your trick and your tool ("just a coke bottle") I opened the tablet, unplugged the battery, reconnected and BOOM !!!! It worked like a charm. Can't thank you enough !
Finally! I actually have the exact same tablet. I was looking everywhere online to see how to open the damn thing after it froze on me. It sucks having an older model of anything and trying to fix it yourself, everything is always about the newest toys. Thanks for still having this video up.
You're the best! I've had a busted tablet and finally got around to messing with it. No tools but had an old soda bottle! Got it open with no problem at all. No ATT slot but around the USB port worked like a charm.
Hard Reset will not work if the Tablet will not even turn on which is my case with my Tab 4. plus, my Warranty expired a year ago. Nothing better than some simple old fashioned DIY :). Thanks a million for making this Video :)
thanks for the video, i've done it before but nice to watch someone else struggle a bit with it to remind me how to do it. Got mine opened with a speedy cash gift card
People will think just buy the tool but most kit come with battery and the problem it too much vendors in amazon and ebay that sometimes you end up wit the wrong battery u can return it bu less the handling fee and those repair cell phones mostly india people the will rip you off i was quote 60 buck so this method is usefull to check the dimensions of the battery that happened to me
you should just try holding the power button the volume down button and the home button until it reboots if you hold it to long it just goes into download mode but there is a choice to restart device
Del Boii Mine is worse...my tab is on and running 100% no damage done to the thing but my screen is PLAIN BLACK like i cant see anything i can hear notifs from my youtube but i cant see anything
Thank you sir, but I used plastic from a pack of pens and it did not work so I just raked accross that edge with a screw driver, and that worked! But thank you because I was at first trying to peel the back off like I used to do my old Android phones
Thank you for showing us how! Perhaps though, please could you possibly not work outside, as the traffic was so noisy that it was hard to hear you! Kindest regards, Kerri

@@jamesledet784 oh ok, It looks Identical to this place I shot on the Harlem River here while I was at a Pow Wow here in October. There's a Mall that has those same magenta neon strip lights here. Such a great shot you did there ! I looked on your page here cause my Tab went blank and didn't turn back on So I could get it opened up . Thank for the great hack. We are on lockdown up here in the city. Until further notice I suppose. Be safe and carefull out there
I appreciate the tip and will use it, but you didn't NEED to pull the battery out to fix your particular issue. Simultaneous long-hold of power button and volume down button would've reset it without opening the case.
Thank you sir. My Tab A was showing 7% battery and wouldn't charge beyond that. I disconn'd and reconn'd the battery and it's good now. I was about to order a new battery !
I use a metal tweezer....one side of it, that is. Started from the micro sd card slot and it opened pretty easily, even got the corners with not too much hassle.
I can't understand why this is necessary. So the tablet won't power down by holding power button for like 30 seconds? Or power and volume down button? Or plugging it in to charge for a few minutes to get it to respond? I'm trying to understand because I don't think I want a tablet if it does this in the first place. Especially for the stupid prices Samsung charges.
Guys if your thinking about it or it's the only thing you have DO NOT USE METAL. it will damage the inside and your tablet may need even more fixing or you may even need a new one. Just use simple plastic like one of those guitar things or a credit card that you will never use. Also while doing this process take your time and do no forcefully pull the back off. Just be gentle about it and slowly take the back out. Doing so forcefully will most likely break the snaps and you can't put it back on ever again

Just saw a video on a hard reboot and you don't have to do all those shenanigans. Press and hold volume down button with power button until it reboots. Release both. It automatically shuts down and back on again. Try it, then no disassembling.
I see a few comments making fun of this guy why is wearing a wife beater and he has an accent that southern he's not an idiot he's a smart awesome dude and he saved my f****** tablet so if you want to mess with him and say s*** about him you have to go through me
Thanks dude saved me from throwing my tablet through the wall.

I tried every button combination, while charging and not, tablet wont go into recovery mode.
If you don't have to than you don't have to.
