hey everyone I'm Kelsey with iFixit and
today I'm going to show you how to
replace the front-facing camera on your
Samsung Galaxy S 9 plus for this repair
you're going to need an eye opener a
suction handle I fix it opening pics a
spudger a Philips double-0 screwdriver
and tweezers
we also recommend using a magnetic mat
for this repair it'll keep your screws
organized and safe from rolling away
start by making sure that your phone is
off and use your eye opener to heat up
the back panel to soften the adhesive
and repeat if necessary if the adhesive
continues to give you a hard time try
using a heat gun or a hairdryer lay your
suction cup on the phone as close to the
heated edge as possible then use your
pick to cut away the adhesive all around
the edges once you have a portion of the
panel separated insert a pic to keep the
adhesive from resealing work your pick
around the phone cutting all the
adhesive but be careful don't slide the
pic in too far or else you might damage
the fingerprint sensor once you have all
the adhesive cut lift the panel and
disconnect the fingerprint sensor on the
mid frame you have 11 Philips still zero
screws that hold the NFC antenna and the
wireless charging coil

once you've removed the screws and
components go ahead and disconnect the
