What to do before opening Samsung

Before showing you how to open your Samsung device, there are some preliminary operations, so to speak, that in my opinion you would do well to perform in order to carry out the operation in question in the best possible way. You will find them all indicated in the following sub-paragraphs.

Check the validity of the guarantee

For starters, I highly recommend that you check the state the warranty of your Samsung-branded device. If it is still covered by the latter, disassembly could irreparably compromise it. Furthermore, if your device is under warranty you could consider sending it for free assistance (as far as possible) rather than do it yourself.



To check the warranty status, the only way you have at your disposal is to find it purchase receipt or the Fattura and check the above date. The guarantee has a duration of 24 months, so if less time has elapsed from the date indicated, you can still use it. If not, obviously no. For more details, you can refer to the specific page dedicated to the warranty attached to the official Samsung website.

Find the equipment and spare parts

Another fundamental preliminary operation is to find theequipment necessary for opening as well as any parts with which to replace the malfunctioning ones.

To do this, you can rely on iFixit, a portal managed by a team of specialists on which all the disassembly operations of most of the smartphone and tablet models on the market and not, including Samsung-branded devices, are indicated in an extremely detailed manner. On the site you can find step-by-step guides (mostly in English, however) full of high definition images as well as explicit videos and a detailed list of equipment to be used and spare parts. In short, in a circumstance like yours it is a real "godsend".



So to understand what tools you need to open your Samsung device, connect to the section of the iFixit website dedicated to the company's smartphones or to the one dedicated to tablets and click on the image of the model in your possession. Then select the section Replacement Guides in the new page that has opened, the component you want to disassemble.

A new page will then be loaded with all the instructions for disassembling your Samsung together with the list of tools needed to do so, in the section Tools on the left. The spare parts are instead indicated in correspondence with the section Parts, which is on the right.

You can then buy what you need by taking note of what is indicated on the iFixit website and going to a store specialized in the sale of mobile devices or online, on websites for electronic commerce, as in the case of Amazon.

Alternatively, you can also buy what you need directly through the store on the iFixit website, by clicking on the name of the tool or spare part you need, clicking on the button to add the goods to the cart and finalizing the purchase. .

Prepare the device and the work surface

Now you have to worry about "preparing" your Samsung smartphone or tablet for the disassembly operation. So, first take care of switch off the device by pressing and holding the Power button (depending on the model, you can find it on the sides of the device or in the upper part of the same) and then stop on the switch off command that you see appear on the screen. If present, then worry about removing any films e protective covers that you had applied to the device.


Also worry about extracting the SIM card from the appropriate slot on the company's smartphones and cellular tablets. To do this, you need to use theextraction tool (similar in shape to an office paper clip) included in the sales package of the device. Then insert it in the small hole above the SIM slot and press firmly until the flap is ejected out of the "body" of the device. Then help yourself with your hands to completely extract the SIM door and remove the card inserted in it.


If you can no longer find the extraction tool, you can still carry out the above steps with the help of a very common metal paper clip for documents. To use it for your purpose, simply open one end and use it to press into the hole next to the SIM slot.

Another thing you need to do before going out to open your Samsung is to properly prepare the work area. You must have a surface well litflat and sufficiently clean.

Also try to put a soft cloth (eg microfiber) on which to place the device when opening in order to prevent it from being accidentally scratched during disassembly or, even worse, from slipping too easily from the surface on which it is placed and ... breaking !
