Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus Screen Replacement
Inleiding
Ga naar stap 1Follow this guide to replace the screen assembly for the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus. The display glass, OLED panel, and digitizer comprise the screen assembly and will need to be replaced together.
Note: Some replacement screens for this phone come pre-installed in a new frame (a.k.a. chassis), which requires you to transplant all of your phone's internals and install a new battery. Make sure you have the correct part before starting this guide.
There is a significant chance that you may break the unreinforced and fragile display panel during this procedure. If you plan on reusing the screen assembly, be sure to apply plenty of heat and be extremely careful during the prying stage.
You'll need replacement adhesive in order to complete this repair.

Thank you for the step by step guide. Where did you get the repair screen from? Are these screens OEM? Thank you in advance!
Does anyone have any suggestions on reinstalling the screen and back cover? I do not see pre-cut adhesive for either. I have a tube of T-7000. Is that appropriate for this type of reassembly? I have only used pre cut adhesive for repairs up to this point.
Hi Chris, the pre-cut adhesive for the Samsung Galaxy S20+ is available on the iFixit US store and we have a guide on applying custom-cut adhesive strips. In a pinch, using a special glue should also work.
Hi Bazz 511, not sure what properties "ultra solve" has, but I would guess that is based on acetone which could damage the device. Here's a blog post with more information on the topic and why we generally only recommend isopropyl alcohol.
