Samsung Galaxy S8 Teardown Repair Guide Steps:

Step 1

• Power down your Samsung Galaxy S8 phone.

Step 2 (Samsung Galaxy S8 SIM Card and MicroSD Card Tray)

• Eject the SIM card and microSD card tray.

Step 3 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Rear Glass Panel)

• The Galaxy S8 rear glass panel is glued on solidly and is a tight fit within the frame. Apply heat to soften the adhesive.

• With the precision knife create enough space to insert a playing card.

• Attack the adhesive and carefully dislodge the rear glass panel from the chassis.

• You will need to disconnect the very short fingerprint reader cable from the motherboard before completely moving the glass out of the way.

Step 4 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Fingerprint Reader)

• Use the spudger to help free the Galaxy S8 fingerprint sensor from the adhesive securing it to the rear glass panel.

Step 5 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Antenna Assembly and NFC/Wireless Charging Panel and Loudspeaker Array)

• Remove the following 14 Phillips screws.

• Spudge up the antenna assembly that includes the NFC and wireless charging panel.

• Easily pop out the lower antenna and loudspeaker array.

Step 6 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Motherboard)

• Starting with the battery, disconnect the bevy of cables from the Galaxy S8 motherboard.

• Use the spudger to detach the daughterboard connector on the underside of the motherboard, then extract it from the Samsung phone.

Step 7 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Rear-Facing Camera)

• Pluck off the 12-megapixel Galaxy S8 rear camera.

Step 8 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Battery)

• The S8 battery is firmly adhered in place. Use a spudger to muscle it free from the adhesive securing it to the smartphone.

• After a brief struggle out pops the 11.55 watt-hour (Wh), 3,000 milliampere-hour (mAh) Galaxy S8 battery.

Step 9 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Daughterboard that includes the Modular Headphone Jack, USB-C Port, and Microphone)

• Remove the following 5 Phillips screw.

• With the spudger in hand, extricate the daughterboard from the midframe. It includes the Galaxy S8 USB Type-C port, headphone jack, and primary microphone.

• Detach and separate the modular 3.5mm headphone jack from the daughterboard.

Step 10 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Sensor Array, Earpiece Speaker, Front-Facing and Iris Scanning Cameras and Vibrator)

• The next component to surrender is a front-facing sensor array that contains the status LED, the IR emitter and camera, and the proximity sensor.

• Remove the S8 earpiece speaker, followed by the front-facing and iris scanning cameras.

• Extract the spring-contact-connected vibrator.

Step 11 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Volume and Bixby Buttons Cable and Power Button Cable)

• With the tweezers in hand, remove the S8 volume and Bixby buttons cable, followed by the power button cable.

• The button covers are trapped within the outer case and can’t be removed.

Step 12 (Samsung Galaxy S8 Display Assembly)

• Begin to free the 5.8-inch S8 display assembly by using the heat gun to warm up the sticky adhesive.

• Use playing cards to attack the adhesive securing the Super-AMOLED display to the S8 frame.

• Take your time and apply additional heat as needed.

• Once you have sliced through the adhesive, be mindful of the display cable when decoupling the Galaxy S8 screen from the frame.


* To reassemble your device, follow the steps in reverse order.
