hello guys this is glenn from sydney cbd
repair center and today we have an asus
rog phone 5s pro
with the broken display right there
so david will fix it for us let's go
[Music]
so this repair session is going to be
a longer one than usual because the
this rog phone 5s pro is going to
require some advanced
disassembly
from a really qualified technician so
david here is going to take his time to
remove this back plate so far this is a
standard operating procedure when you
try to repair
a smartphone with this caliber
so this is kind of your
gaming smartphone
unlike your stylish
iphone devices or samsung flagship
smartphones this rog phone 5s pro
has some performance grade components
inside so when i say performance grade
uh
components that are geared towards
gaming and
of course
other
intensive tasks
so right here we're just going to remove
this connector
that connects to the
back cover
slowly pry it open
and as you can see
if you've been following the channel
this configuration is unique to the asus
rog phone
5 and 5s pro
you can see that the main board is
separated into three parts and the
battery is separated into two parts and
you can see that
on top you have the camera then the
battery then the main board
then a battery again and then daughter
board at the bottom
so the main board at the center is of
course connected to a lot of flex cables
and the flex cables are going on top of
each battery
so this is what we're gonna be dealing
here with tinkering about with the rg
phone
5s pro components is very very tricky so
if you want to
diy this
kind of repair i suggest that you
rethink
other options
so that's the first layer of the board
we're gonna remove some more flex cables
that are connected to this
board and then remove another one
so based on the density of the parts and
the things that could go wrong the
higher risk of the the higher
risk of you destroying
other components that are
otherwise
good to reuse
so also just like this one you need a
specialized tool to remove that one
screw
and then
you have to lift
up
the bottom layer of
this main board and you can see that
there's a blue thermal paste
it's more
familiar to pc builders
so that it will dissipate heat from the
cpu
and then we're gonna remove the bottom
battery
because this is where the
cable flex cable for the display is
located
so we're just gonna lift up
that
flex cable this one
and then we're gonna proceed now to the
removal of the defective display
so the defective display can be removed
by prying it open
through the sides
and this is also a standard operating
procedure
that you can see for
the repair of samsung or
other android devices so this is not
something new
we're just gonna still
put a lot of care into it because we
don't want to
destroy other components just like what
i said a while ago
so everything that you can see here will
be reused
aside from this
broken display you can see there's
already disintegration on the cracked
part
i'm just gonna slowly slice
through the adhesive
[Music]
and then it's now gonna be letting go
any moment now
[Music]
and there you go so we have to pull out
the flex cable
to the display
you can see there the bottom
slowly
let it go through the slot and then it's
off
the next stage is to prep the frame for
the new display so that means scraping
off the old adhesives and gunk from the
old glue
and apply some fresh liquid glue
so that we can install the new
replacement
glass or screen
it's now there
we're gonna get this
replacement display that david source
for this specific model
so if you want the convenience of having
the correct part for your
rg
phone
just head on to your local repair shop
let them source the component for you or
you can head on to sydney cbd or power
center and we'll do the exact same
process
on your rg phone 5s pro
so now we're basically
rebuilding the smartphone
reverting back to the process that we
committed earlier
the
thermal paste will not be replaced
just gonna leave it
says
push it in
make sure that the flex cables are all
on top of it ready for connection
and then attach them one by one we're
not going to be
going through each of them
because this is a very unique design
this is kind of
flex cables for the charging the camera
uh sensor
and of course the antenna for bluetooth
and wi-fi
[Music]
we're just gonna screw this special
screw in
so once again if you want to diy this
asus rg phone 5s pro
you might want to reconsider that
thought
because uh although you can have a lot
of experience preparing the smartphone
the risk of you losing your smartphone
to
a mishandled screw or
a
slip of your
scalpel can damage these connections
and that's not gonna be good
so this is the top layer uh this is also
the cover for the main board
which is also
acting as
the
board for other components such as this
one
this for maybe cellular
there's a lot of antenna cables that are
attached to this top layer of board
so we're just gonna screw it in and then
we're gonna finalize and perform some
final testing before we give it to our
client
so this is a plastic piece
we're almost done

so we're done here we're just going to
attach this
flex cable for the back cover press it
in
[Music]
it's good to go
[Music]
so if you've noticed the adhesives on
the display is kind of seeping out
so those residues can be
cleaned off easily
[Music]
this is already good to go
but david is going to put temporary
glass which is always free in the shop

future
