In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and technical information about Service Modes, Circuit Diagrams, Firmware Update procedure, Disassemble procedure, Universal remote control set-up codes, Troubleshooting and more....

If you go into the profession, you will obtain or have access to a variety of tech tips databases HERE IT IS Master Electronics Repair !.

These are an excellent investment where the saying: 'time-is-money' rules. However, to learn, you need to develop a general troubleshooting approach - a logical, methodical, method of narrowing down the problem. A tech tip database might suggest: 'Replace C536' for a particular symptom. This is good advice for a specific problem on one model. However, what you really want to understand is why C536 was the cause and how to pinpoint the culprit in general even if you don't have a service manual or schematic and your tech tip database doesn't have an entry for your sick TV or VCR.

While schematics are nice, you won't always have them or be able to justify the purchase for a one-of repair. Therefore, in many cases, some reverse engineering will be necessary. The time will be well spent since even if you don't see another instance of the same model in your entire lifetime, you will have learned something in the process that can be applied to other equipment problems.
As always, when you get stuck, checking out a tech-tips database may quickly identify your problem and solution.In that case, you can greatly simplify your troubleshooting or at least confirm a diagnosis before ordering parts.

Happy repairing!

How to remove Display Assembly (LCD & Touch Screen)
The S4 SGH-i337 Display Assembly (LCD & Touch Screen) is fused together and cannot be separated. The display assembly is secured to the frame/front housing of the smartphone with a good amount of adhesive; it will require heat, and patience, to separate.
This procedure is recommended only on smartphones with a display assembly that is ALREADY DAMAGED. Use a heat gun or blow drier to heat the adhesive securing the display assembly to the smartphone’s frame/front-housing.
To separate the Samsung display assembly from the rame/front housing, utilize one of the screwdrivers or he plastic opening tool and through the front-facing camera hole, while securely gripping the sides of the S4’s frame/front housing, carefully push the damaged display assembly away from the S4’s frame/front housing.

You can now use the nylon spudger or plastic opening tool to continue working around the Galaxy S4 display assembly slowly separating it from the frame/front housing. Be mindful of the home button assembly toward the bottom of the Samsung smartphone.
With the S4 display assembly seperated from the frame/front housing, you can utilize the flat end of the spudger to remove the home button assembly.
