    • Run the hair drier or heat gun around the edges of Note 5 on the back to soften the adhesive.

    • Gently pry up to release the battery cover. Be patient on this step as the battery cover is glued by strong adhesive.

Isn't that frustrating? It is difficult to find repair parts because electronic devices aren't covered by current Right to Repair legislation. Here's more info about the issue: http://ifixit.org/right

I have a Galaxy Note 5 N920G that has a water problem, everything just fine apart that it does not recognize the sim, so for calls and data is useless. I took it to Samsung , and they said that the motherboard or logic board does not work and need a replacement, but they want to charge me 300 usd that´s like a brand new note 5. Anyways browsing through eBay there are some boards but with different prefixes such as N920 A, V, T, N etc. I wonder if it will function with my cellphone? Will it be easy to replace the board?

Also im from Mexico if that helps.

I broke the signal cable port that it snaps to the motherboard. Is there a way to fix them or do I have to completely get a new one? Also If I get a new motherboard will I lose all of the stuff stored on my phone?

It need a micro welding repair, find a repair shop who can do a welding repair. If you replace the motherboard, your will lost everything on the Memory card.
