Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus Screen Replacement

A screen replacement for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus is necessary if your device suffers from cracked glass, unresponsive touch input, dead pixels, or a completely black AMOLED display. This procedure requires opening the device from the back glass, disconnecting delicate internal components, and carefully cleaning the midframe before seating the new panel. With careful patience, steady hands, and the right tools, you can successfully restore your display to pristine working order.

1. 1

   Prepare the Device and Power Off

   • Turn off the phone completely, and eject the SIM tray with an ejector pin.
   • Discharge the battery below 25 percent before starting to minimize thermal hazards if the battery is accidentally punctured.
2. 2

   Soften the Rear Glass Adhesive

   • Lay the device face down on a heat mat or warm the outer rear perimeter using a heat gun set to 80 degrees Celsius for 2 to 3 minutes.
   • Keep the heat source moving constantly to avoid scorching the rear glass coating or overheating internal cameras.
3. 3

   Slice the Adhesive and Remove the Back Cover

   • Press a suction handle onto the bottom third of the rear panel, pull upward gently to introduce a slight gap, and slide a plastic pick into the seam.
   • Move the pick along the perimeter to slice through the adhesive, keeping the pick shallow to avoid damaging internal ribbons, then lift off the back glass.
4. 4

   Unfasten the Midframe Shield and Wireless Coil

   • Remove the Phillips #000 screws securing the upper motherboard shield and wireless charging assembly.
   • Unclip the protective bracket, detach the wireless charging pad contact, and lift the assembly out of the chassis.
5. 5

   Disconnect the Battery

   • Insert an ESD-safe spudger beneath the battery flex connector and pop it straight up from the motherboard.
   • Disconnecting the battery immediately cuts system power and protects sensitive board electronics from short circuits.
6. 6

   Remove the Loudspeaker and Disconnect Display Flex

   • Unthread the Phillips screws securing the bottom loudspeaker module and lift it out.
   • Use your plastic spudger to gently disconnect the display ribbon cable and the primary interconnect cables from both the motherboard and the daughterboard.
7. 7

   Heat and Extract the Broken Display

   • Warm the front perimeter of the screen with your heat gun at 75 degrees Celsius to soften the front bonding tape.
   • Attach your suction handle to the front glass, pry around the bezel with plastic picks, and carefully thread the display flex cable out through the midframe slot as you lift the old screen away.
8. 8

   Clean and Prepare the Frame Channel

   • Use isopropyl alcohol and a plastic scraper to clear all old adhesive remnants, dirt, and stray glass shards from the bezel channel.
   • A spotless, completely flat surface is vital to prevent uneven pressure points that could crack the new AMOLED screen.
9. 9

   Perform a Dry Test of the Replacement Screen

   • Guide the flex cable of the new display through the midframe cutout and connect it securely to the motherboard.
   • Temporarily plug the battery back in, boot up the device, and test touch accuracy, color uniformity, and brightness across the screen before adhering it permanently.

    Install Adhesive and Mount the Screen

    • Power off the phone and disconnect the battery once more.
    • Apply fresh pre-cut adhesive along the frame channels, thread the display ribbon through, align the screen within the bezel, and apply firm, even pressure along all edges.

    Reassemble Components and Seal the Back Panel

    • Reconnect the display and interconnect cables, secure the battery connector, reinstall the loudspeaker, and fasten the upper bracket screws.
    • Apply new perimeter adhesive to the rear frame, seat the back cover squarely, and apply light clamping pressure for 20 minutes to achieve a secure seal.
