Ask at your local shop. As Mr X says, there all loads of videos online on how to do it, but it requires tools and delicate handling that I'd rather leave to someone whose done it before.

Is it Samsung that are telling you that? Cause they would tell you that to get you to pay for their overpriced repair service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say I went away & bought a new phone for £165. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say I went away & bought a new phone for £165. Jesus, sorry about that advice, had no idea what they charged tbh, was thinking around £80 max. Mr X's recommendation of your local phone repair/unlocking shop was the way to go probably to avoid buying a new one. Then again they might have fucked it up. Hope you like your new phone.
