Video Overview

Step 1

              Glue Removing
  • Initially, we have to use an 8 inches of Manual Vacuum Separator to heat the screen so that the residual glue on the screen can be soften.
  • After that, we use a clean cloth to wipe the OLED with a little glue cleanser, so it can remove the residual glue easily and efficiently.
  • Then we should be patient and careful to use a yellow glue remover tool to remove the residual glue. Once removed, we should clean up the OLED with white oil.
  • After cleaning up, we would use a tweezers to dismantle the small rubber plugs at the four corners of the screen. And then, we should tear off the light glue from both ends of the screen.

Step 2

              Mid-frame Cold Separating
  • The following part is using 17 inches of Frozen Machine to disassemble the mid-frame from the OLED. Firstly, we would place the whole screen into the working area of the frozen machine for freezing. Here it needs to take 5 minutes to freeze the screen.
  • Then we can use a poker card to separate the mid-frame under the low temperature after the freezing time is up.
  • Warm tips: Pleaser wear the gloves to protect your hands from lower temperature when you are operating. Besides, you can add some glue cleanser to separate the mid-frame during the process.
  • Once separated the mid-frame, we have to use Test Boarder to test the display and the touch are on work or not.

Step 3

              New OCA Laminating
  • Then we would laminate a new piece of OCA to the new glass of Samsung S9 once we confirmed the test result is no problem.
  • In the OCA lamination part, the tools we would use are the whole set high precision positioning edge mold of model S9 and RMB-2 OCA Lamination Machine. It would take 90s in this process.
  • Here we can see there’s no any bubble and folds on the new glass after the lamination through the third picture.

Step 4

              LCD Laminating
  • The next part is laminating the OLED. As same as above OCA lamination, we still use Samsung S9’s positioing edge molds and RMB-2 OCA Lamination Machine. And it just need to take 90s in this LCD lamination process.

Step 5

              Bubble Removing
  • The last step is putting the screen into bubble remover to remove bubbles. It should take 5 mins to remove bubbles so that we can get a perfect effect.
  • We can see the final screen lamination and bubble removing effects are extremely good.

That’s all steps for Samsung S9’s broken screen replacement. Reviewing the whole process, I think that mid-frame cold separating is a key point for the entire replace process. But I think you can do it well.
