đ ïž Tools Youâll Need

⥠Important Notes Before You Start
-
Disconnect the battery as soon as you open the phone to avoid electrical damage.
- Make sure to use the exact same sub-board version (e.g., âUâ version) to avoid compatibility issues.
Step 1: đ„ Heat and Separate the Back Cover
Power off the Samsung S24 Ultra . Heat the back cover for about 10 minutes using a Polar Tech Magic Self-Heating Pad to soften the glue.
Carefully use a thin metal tool to create a small gap between the back cover and phone body. Drip some alcohol into the gap to weaken the adhesive. Then, use a plastic pick to gently work around the edges and separate the glue. Add more alcohol if needed and take your time to avoid damage.
Step 2: đ© Remove Internal Parts
Inside, there are 15 screws securing the shields. Remove the screws starting from the top section, then take off the mainboard shield.
Important: Disconnect the battery first to prevent short circuits.
Remove the low speaker assembly, secured with six screws, then use a spudger to lift out the speaker assembly along with the sub-board shield.
Step 3: đ Replace the Sub-Board
Disconnect all flex cables connected to the sub-board and remove the SIM card tray.
Remove the three screws holding the sub-board, then gently lift it out with tweezers.
Note: The sub-board comes in different versions (e.g., the âUâ version for US models). Always replace it with the same version to avoid signal or performance issues.
Step 4: â Reassemble and Test
Place the new sub-board in position, reconnect all cables, and tighten screws.
Reinstall the loudspeaker and mainboard bracket, securing all screws.
Before closing the phone, test the charging port and other key functions to ensure everything works properly.
Finally, close the back cover securely.
