The Samsung S20 internal structure mainly contains a display screen, middle frame and some small parts. To tear down the Samsung S20, we need to be careful and patient. The first step we would do is take off the battery door, and then off the wireless charging coil. After that we may take off the inside parts which are install on the middle frame. We can disassemble the display screen with middle frame at last and finish the process. Let’s see the details presented below:
1. Tear down the battery door and wireless charging port
Power off the phone, eject and take out the SIM card tray. Use hot air gun to blow on the back battery door around the edge. Use suction cup to pull and ultra-thin plastic sheet to slice and separate the battery door. Take off the batter door and then we can see the wireless charging coil on the top. Unbolt the 15 Phillips screws for fixing the charging coil, then we are able to pry and take off the wireless charging coil with steel pry tool from the Samsung phone.
2. Take off the camera module and other small parts
After the charging coil is removed, we can see the flex cable ribbons. Disconnect the battery flex cable firstly. Pry and remove the antenna bracket with spudger on the upside of the phone. After that, we can remove the speaker bracket on the bottom in the same way. Pry and take off the SUB main flex ribbon and antenna flex for connecting the charging port board and mainboard. Unplug the display flex cable. Loosen the screws for fixing the mainboard, and disconnect the front facing camera flex cable. Use spudger to pry and take off the mainboard from the phone. The rear-facing camera module is combined on the mainboard, we can separate the rear cameras form the board. Unbolt the three Phillips screws and take off the Samsung S20 charging port PCB board with spudger. Hot air gun blows and gently pry off the ear speaker from the middle frame.
3. Tear down the battery from the middle frame
After the small parts are taken off from the display, here we can tear down the battery and separate the display screen. Add some battery sticker melted glue and pry the battery off from the middle frame with steel prying tool. Hot air gun blow on the display screen and use ultra-thin sheet to slice and separate the Samsung S20 display screen and digitizer from the frame. All teardown process for Samsung S20 is over.
