I dropped my S6 the other day from my pocket and was dropped flat on screen, the glass was not cracked and it was the LCD or the Amoled Screen that was cracked and the bottom half of the screen is blacked out while the other half still works and can still recognize touches. Then I tried full charge it first and benchmark it to see if the performance was affected by the drop. The result that I got was 59k unlike from the usual score that i get is 67k. After few hours, the whole screen doesn't turn on anymore.
I just wanted to know if it still worth it to bring this to the repair center to replace the screen?
The repair center usually charge you much to replace the screen. So if you want to save money you can get s6 screen replacement from king ju and then fix it by yourself or a repair man.

I managed to break the screen on my Optimus 3d last night, not sure if it was dropped or ran over. I found it face down in my driveway this morning and to my horror when I flipped it over the screen was completely smashed, however the phone is still working fine, minus the never ending ghost call issue.
What make the situation worse is Rogers just sent me out a replacement phone yesterday and I have to send this one back, in the next couple days.
So I called a repair centre and they wanted $190 to repair the phone, and stated they would need to replace the LCD and the glass screen. I know there is nothing wrong with the LCD screen, phone functions and all colours are good, just has broken glass.
My question is, can I repair just the glass without replacing the LCD? I have found the screen for around $30 on ebay. Based on watching the how to on youtube it doesn't look like too difficult of a job.
me too i have broke my glass of my phone and they said like your prize to replace thre glass but in my country crunncy and the screen work perfectly I don't know why they want to change the screen too it's annoying

If your LCD is working you only need the digitizer replaced (phone front + touch screen) which costs you around 20/30$ http://www.ebay.com/itm/Replacement...080?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c2d78e968 .
My touchscreen was broken (randomly pressing things on the screen) and I think the 2nd hand shop I got it from only replaced the digitizer I think based on the small dust I see on my screen.
This only works if your LCD doesn't show blurry or (partially) black (damaged).
Hi All
Recently i got careless and i accidentally cracked my nexus 5 screen after dropping it on the ground
Currently the touch screen works but there is a problem. I am unable to answer calls as the screen goes black and does not turn on again until the person has hung up or until i reset the phone. Also when i try to call out the screen turns black as well and exhibits the same symptoms as listed above.
From people who have had experience with cracked Nexus 5 screens, do you think replacing the digitizer + lcd will fix this issue or did i screw up something big
Thanks
It sounds like the cracked glass is affecting the proximity sensor. Replacing the screen /digitizer should fix the problem. Replace the whole thing including the bezel.
Any chance you could explain why the bezel also needs to be replaced as well?
It's easier to use the screens that come with the housing, you just switch internals and pop the back on. As for oem replacement screens with housings, I've read mixed reviews. Some say theirs is perfect. Others complain of different textures on the housing, or missing ear speaker mesh. Some say their replacements have massive light bleed. If it were my phone I'd pay the extra 25 to 50 bucks and send it to lg for repair. They charge 150 dollars. Then you are guaranteed to have it be perfect again. Plus their work and parts are warrantied. Play it safe and send it to lg imo.
Edit: Also if you did break anything else they will fix that as well.
Have any of you noticed a weird wrinkly/wavy screen when you look at it from a sharp angle? The other day I looked over at my S6 sitting on a counter next to a window and noticed what looked like my screen warping with horizontal waves across the surface. As I got closer to it and looked at it straight on I see nothing, but when I look at it (screen off) at a sharp angle with good light, I see these weird waves in the material under the glass.
Is this typical for these types of screens or is this warranty territory?
did you return your phone for warranty? I noticed same thing on my unlocked S6 also. It seems like the glass of the screen is wavy.. Don't see same issue on my Samsung Galaxy TabPro 12.2".
There is an old thread about all the various screen issues with the s6 here

amoled display
my 1 week galaxy note 9 also got the same physical appearance. Walked in to authorize repair and they offer me to replace my display instead 1 to 1 swapping or if I still insist, I've to walk in to the shop where I bought it so I don't really bother myself to replace it since it works perfectly when I turn on my screen at any angle. hmm...what would you do if you are at my place?
I'm on my 3rd Nexus 5 in just over 2 years. I've had this one since November and I'm obviously well out of warranty now.
Anyway, the screen looks to be failing. It has developed a large green patch in the centre and the backlight isn't anywhere near as bright. This seemed to happen instantly earlier this evening with it getting progressively worse.
I had replaced the battery a few days earlier. So I've been back in and checked all ribbons are seated correctly.
Would a new screen fix this or is it a different issue that is creating these symptoms?
Could there have been too much pressure put on the screen when separating the battery from the screen? I know the battery adhesive can be stubborn.
There was a decent amount of pressure but it was fine for a couple of days. If it is the screen they don't seem to cost too much to replace. Just don't want to waste my money in case it isn't.
Since the issue is in the middle of the screen, I'd be tempted to try a new screen as the screen connections are at the top of the motherboard.
I have replaced a few screens with third-party screens. I noticed that these third-party screens are not as bright as the original but it was not very noticeable until I held a phone with a third-party screen next to a phone with an original screen.
so this morning i saw dead pixels on s8 plus 6 month old that are currently stuck. white green one red dots .I have been trying a few of those apps that flash the bright colors on your screen for a couple time and no luck so far. Anything you guys could recommend to help me fix this?
Would say looks like pressure damage not dead/stuck pixels. They won't go away, see you have a crack so might have weakened the glass and allowed screen to get damaged.

glass protector cracked and inside is 100% ok on mobile screen.
Samsung warranty is 2 years, would be able to get it replaced free then if there is no evidence of damage. (Take off screen protector before you visit their repair center).
