Repair, disassembly, and troubleshooting information for the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra phone. The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is the largest in the 2024 S series lineup, released in January 2024.

How to replace motherboard

My phone was diagnosed by samsung but out of warranty by a month and was going to cost $500. That was out of the question, when I am still paying on the phone and haven't had it for a year. My phone looks brand new still and started overheating, while not keeping my battery at a full charge. The phone overheating causes the phone to shut down about every 60 seconds. I was going to pay to have it fixed when samsung sent me to asurion but samsung said I needed to mail it in. It took 2 weeks for them to reply with an update after receiving my phone and said the same as asurion, it was the motherboard. This was the phone, nothing I did but from the factory.

Replacing the motherboard in your phone is fairly straight-forward, at least as far as phone repairs go. Although iFixit doesn't have a guide specifically for that repair, you can use the Screen and Battery Assembly Replacement guide to get to it and remove it. Obviously there'll be steps you'll want to skip, such as removing the daughterboard, but other than that, the guide will get you there; just use some common sense with regard to which parts need to come out.

Although I'm inclined to think that two separate shops coming to the same conclusion that the motherboard is at fault is probably right, personally I would be tempted to try replacing the battery and see if that fixes the problem. Without those diagnoses you got, that would be the first thing I would have tried. Batteries aren't terribly expensive; certainly they're far cheaper than a new motherboard, so I'd give it a shot, but of course that's your decision. If you want to try, here's the iFixit guide for that repair.

I am a bit confused by your warranty situation; you said you haven't had it for a year, which is the normal length of the warranty, but you started out by saying it's a month out of warranty, so am I missing something?

Anyway, good luck with your phone, and be sure to come back and let us know how it all turns out; your experience could help the next person who comes along with the same problem.
