I requested a refund of $100 for the screen. Of cause the seller proposed a refund of $0 but after escalating the dispute I received my refund. Maybe I should of requested more? Oh well it works with a slight defect and I now only paid about $40. Just happy to have received something back!

supplier: We have adhesive.
Jeffreys: I'll take your entire stock.

Hey at least if you fix another note 7 in the future, and mess up the adhesive you still got 18 more.

The dislike is from the guy who tried to fix this before.

JerryRig: Tortures and tears apart every brand new phone inch by inch.
Hugh: Attempts to fix broken and faulty phones to pristine condition.
I'm a fan of both, though.

When I heard the name, I thought it actually had a fan in it 😅

Hey, Hugh! Just thought of mentioning that the unit you have is from Malaysia. The F in the model number represents the country it was meant to be sold in. I am also from Malaysia and let me just say that this is type of repairing process is common here. Currently, I am restoring my friend's Galaxy S6 which he gave to me to keep. He did tell me that he got a battery replacement for it (from a sketchy repair guy) and a few months later, it stopped working after he dropped it. Once I opened it, I was greeted with a mess. It was filled with gunks of sticky dirt and dust. Whats worse is that the battery flex cable was snapped. The battery was not seated in position because the adhesive applied was low quality and it dried out. This explains why the battery stopped working. The battery was also refurbished. My friend also told me that the repair guy charged him RM300 (about 75 USD/ about 100 Aussie Dollars) for the battery replacement. The are other issues with it also (most of which you had with your unit) but this was just bad. He not only got some guy to perform a botched repair on that Galaxy S6 but he also got scammed (A new and original battery replacement costs RM30, about 7 USD or about 10 Aussie Dollars, from a reputable 3rd party seller).

I recall that the Note 7 was a hit with reviewers, which now seems entirely forgotten. I'm glad someone is preserving a few of these great phones, minus the improperly made batteries, of course.

Well done on this repair. Heartbreak at the totaled screen but an amazing repair. I can tell repair people like you great take care and pride in what you do which is amazing.

Note Fan Edition is kinda awesome here in South Korea. Since Samsung has butt-ton of spare parts from Note 7, the repair costs are ridiculously cheap. The full-screen replacement including the display, metal frame, and the battery is $89 USD. It's pretty dope.

The best repair videos on YouTube for sure, salutes from Colombia.

Adhesive: *Exists*
Dodgy phone repair stores: *I'm about to end this mans whole career*

The sellers in China are literally selling you "New" parts which are actually used or really sketchy. I feel bad you have to deal with that.

I was so exhausted due to quarantine so I opened YouTube and your video just pop and it was satisfying, just boosted my mood. Ty

I still own an original Note 7. I remember getting in the mail a few days before it was released in the stores. Verizon actually let me keep the original when the recall happened and sent me another one free of charge. when that recall happened they only had me send back the 2nd one and never the first. my sister also had the same thing happen to her.

[jinchey]

This is cool but where's the fan? Seems like false advertising :/
