Thank you, we'll done, clear concise without skipping over things but making it clear that if your not following along perhaps you should not be taking the phone apart at all lol. Thank you again for this video incredibly helpful

This has been helpful, but a few of the jumpcuts were problematic for me, doing a first time repair. It really took a lot of time and brainpower to realize that I had to take out the sim card holder before I could get the main board off, for example.

It's good to know this can be done. My model of this phone just died so I'm hoping I'll be able to open it up and put a different battery in there to get all the data off before I go ahead and switch over to the 2023 model. The Motorola g play is just a great prepaid phone and you just can't beat the price at like $40

Hi, you mentioned new adhesive. What type of adhesive do I need? Thanks.

How many videos do you think I would have to watch to be able to have my Motorola tricked out with settings and being able to revive it should the screen break? Let me know gotta run the cat needs to be walked

Great video. I used it to replace the screen on my phone. However, now when I am on speakerphone the other person can't hear me. I hear them just fine. Same on FaceTime calls. Calls not on speakerphone work fine Does this phone have two different microphones?

[vinnygallardo]

Also, I have a XT2093-4. What does the "4" mean in the model number. Would screens that fit the XT2093-3 fit mine?

Did you find the display cable fussy? When i tried to put the battery in the display cable wouldn't stay flat and disconnected itself, and i'd have to bend the connector to keep it in place, which would damage the display.

Hi there. How did you heat up the phone to melt the glue?

[cheapcigs]

If I remove the cameras microphones and sensors, will the phone still work?

How to you restore it's water resistance after repair?

Loved the video, hate the annoying music! Not needed for instructional videos IMO!

[sweatyhiveclips]

I have the same phone cracked makes the screen glitch and black areas and white bars

[robertbeit]

You didnt reapply the thermal paste? Why?
Speaker is really easy to split apart. Make sure to get fully under speaker before lifting.

I can get mine to vibrate, looked at everything under a scope 🤷 idk why it won't vibrate. Anyone have any ideas? 💀

I have the same phone it has a crack on I can clearly see it it's on the bottom right corner
