hello guys it's glenn from sydney cbd
repair center and today we're gonna
fix a new favorite among
enthusiasts it's the rog
phone three from asus rog stands for
republic of gamers because as you know
this phone is specifically built and
designed with gaming
in mind so we're going to replace the
broken screen on this one
and as you can see at the back it has
that gaming dna that you can
see from asus computer peripherals and
computer gaming products
so asus has been making monitors
graphics cards and other gaming
devices gaming oriented devices and
these has been translated into a
smartphone
for mobile gaming and as you can see
here
the back panel just comes off without
any attached cables at the
back and we're gonna remove
a portion of this shroud right here
we're gonna remove these two screws
because
we're gonna test the replacement display
so this one is a connector for the
display
and here's the new display we're doing
this to
save time so right at this point
we don't have to disassemble the device
and just find out
that the replacement display
will not work with the motherboard
so we'll try to recharge the phone and
you can see that it turns on
and it displays just as well as the
original
display and we're gonna try to recharge
it again
and as you can see the phone is healthy
and recharging
and we're gonna proceed to the
disassembly of the device
so we're gonna remove the connector for
the display it's just one connector
and remove all the connectors all the
devices
since we need access to the front
uh part of the device
as you can see there there's some legit
uh thermal compound thermal paste to
dissipate heat
and that the one we removed is the mini
heatsink
of the smartphone so the smartphone with
thermal paste and a mini heatsink yep
that sounds gamery and as you can see we
can
as we remove the shroud it reveals
a maze of electronics and connectors
and the battery it's big really really
big
to accommodate longer gaming sessions
and the motherboard is shaped like an
inverted c it's just one piece
and if you're familiar with the standard
layout of smartphones that we repair in
this channel
usually the layout of it is a bigger
motherboard at the top
and the daughter board at the bottom for
speakers
reach charging ports and wi-fi con
the wi-fi antenna we have to be very
careful here
it's not uh just the
auxiliary component this is the primary
the brain of the device
don't break the motherboard at all costs
be careful
and with that note could we
advise a novice uh
users to attempt a repair themselves no
as you can see here we're gonna remove
the front
glass that has been broken and this
angle you can actually see that
the cracks on the surface at certain
angles you can see it
and although david might be
making this look easy it's not
and you can see on the table the the
parts that has been taken out of this
device
and at this stage we're gonna test fit
the replacement screen after we cleaned
off the old adhesive
and even at this stage you need a
professional
service technician to perform this
screen replacement some smartphones you
can do it on your own
with minimal risk and for the smartphone
with this value
and with this complexity and assembly
you just can't risk it you either lose
a good smartphone because you attempted
to
experiment or
you damage the the
display that you the replacement display
that you're gonna
you're supposed to install so either way
it's damaging the device which is not
really
recommended at this price point of the
device
right here you can see the fresh
adhesives on the side
and we will proceed now to the
reassembly part
as you can see we didn't remove the
battery
because we didn't have to
that made the job easier
and as you can see we're going to test
fit it with all the wires tucked in
at the right place we don't want to
crush
a cable or a wire because it might
disable the wi-fi antenna because these
wires are just for radio antennas
bluetooth and wi-fi
some are are wireless charging some are
for
other communications such as nfc
as you can see we we are almost done you
can see that the device has the front
display installed
the motherboard installed we're just
gonna attached all the connectors
at this point

so we're going to install all the
there's a lot of screws on this one
the heatsink remember that
and then we test the device
final tightening of the screws and there
you go
look at that it's fixed now we're just
gonna
try to wait for it if it boots up and
testing
the smartphone is an eleven percent of
battery it
needs a recharge and the rubber band
don't worry this is not uh
gonna be permanent on the device it's
just there to let the glue
cure on the device and of course
