Thanks for this,
There is a one problem still
The disassembly vid only contains half disassembly!
I'm looking for a video that shows how to take apart the metal front bezel.
Got any ideas?
I had looked into this originally, and had decided to abandon the idea.
It seemed like the glass is glued or taped onto the frame. A lot of the feedback that I got gave me the impression the glass would be easily broken by trying to remove it from the frame.
I also decided to abandon this idea.i'll take my galaxy to the laboratory. They can do the replacement for shure

I am a samsung tech and I order the screen as a whole.
Only bits you save are the mainboard,back,battery and battery cover.
everything else is replaced.
if you find anything else on ebay its a fake part and will void your warranty if anything else goes wrong.

I have a full front set for SGS. I bought it from globaldirectparts.com and since they sell two, i have an excess one. It is so easy to assemble. I can sell it for the price i bought.
Any chance you can post a pic to see if its a genuine part?

Hi,
I've scratched my screen pretty deep . I will like to replace the screen and get a new digitizer but haven't found any online.
Has anyone had luck finding a Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus GT-P6200 Digitizer?
Thanks!

Sorry to hear that...I would have cried a little. Best of luck fixing it.

Believe me, my soul weeps every time i see that scratch... its end to end
sorry to tell you but i really don't think their will be any for sale for a log time i mean like 5months as this is still a baby device but have you tried claiming on your house insurance that's what i did with my nexus s last year
they have the digitizers on ebay now
I ordered a replacement digitizer on ebay about 3 weeks ago. They ship free from Hong Kong and the sellers all say that it takes at least 3 weeks for delivery. More sellers are there now with the digitizers. I cannot find a teardown video anywhere. Also, some repair shops fix the old p1000 but not the tab plus.
You definately want the tools to come with the replacement digitizer. I'll give it a shot blindly if I don't find directions and post how it comes out.... hopefully from this device!
i fixed cracked glass yesterday
The directions for the p1000 screen teardown pretty much worked. I used a hairdryer an an exacto knife to separate the digitize from the lcd. This was tricky. Of course you know to always push the knife away from you lest you cut your wrist.
An eyeglass cleaning towel worked to clear off the lcd. I didn't want to risk any solutions on it.
Prices on digitizers are dropping on ebay. I paid 75 for the kit and it is about $10 cheaper. Shipping does take long!

You just need to make sure you are getting the correct digitizer from a well rated seller. It's an easy ebay search. Also, you need the tool kit. The concept is to slide the tool around the space between the glass and case to release the catches. YouTube has lots of videos on the topic. It was a while ago when I did mine and used the T1000 directions. There may be a video with the 7 plus by now.
Using a hair dryer to heat the glass is critical. It softens the adhesive and makes it less dangerous. An exacto knife, glass and lots of force is asking for a trip to the emergency room. Let the heat do its job and always work the knige AWAY from your body while supporting the assembly on a firm surface.
Taking your time is crucial. The job's not that hard as long as you stay organized and don't force it.
By any chance, has anybody purchased a digitizer that doesn't have the Samsung logo on it? I'm kicking around the idea of replacing the digitizer to give my tablet a cleaner look on the front.

I have replacement which I will do myself. Question: after seperating original LCD from digitizer with heat, How did you line up the new one? Or does it fit right into place? Also is there glue material on the new digitizer as Ive been told?
Thank You.
Hello,
I've got the idea to replace my Rear Housing for the Grey version and at the same time, I'll buy the black version, and my research guide to the website EtradeSupply.
So, I ask if anybody have already bought the rear housing in this website, and if this rear is processed like the Official rear or if this rear is "bad" ?

Meanwhile, I've received my housing from the EtradeSupply (I've shipped both version, black and grey), and the products look like official (maybe not, I don't know the feeling of the black version).

I have been using Galaxy R for 1 and a half year. The phone camera performed great for the first 6-8 months probably. But after that the back camera is not usable. The front camera is much better than back camera now. Back camera takes pictures, which seems like of vga quality. Even at nice light conditions, the pictures come very bad. However if I am using flash and taking very close pictures, it looks fine. Is there problem with lens ? I have used different camera apps and even other ROM as well but camera quality is not good in any case.
I had the same issue. Must be your back camera glass is scratched. look carefully. I found spare in eBay hongkong, ordered and replaced it. Now it is crystal clear again

Hi. I cracked the glass on my S4, and cant seem to find any replacement parts on the internet which are original.
Is it at all possible to get an original screen glass, and if not - Where would be the smartest to buy an non-original if considering quality?

My kid cracked his phone as well. Went to this lil kiosk in the mall and they cost like 150 to fix. Better off going thru the asurion to get a new phone.
I'm also interested, there's no way to find any information of the screen quality on the Internet as far as I can see.
I'd like just the glass as the phone works well, don't mind trying to replace it with tutorials available.
A friend of mine actually broke his screen and found a place to buy a replacement. He has the Sprint variant... I doubt they're not compatible... I'll ask him and see what I can find!
I have replaced a glass (on a separate phone) and glass+digitizer both purchased from etradesupply dot com. Their stuff seems to be legit OEM. I recommend them.

Ah, I was wrong, he literally only needed the outside glass so.... that's why it was so cheap. Sorry!
But that site looks like they have legit stuff.

You can buy from witrigs.com. I heard it from other members who bought the replacement parts of Sony Xperia Z1 from here. It seems not bad.

Good luck. If you are doing just the glass, just remember to take your time. The adhesive on the OEM glass is quite a pain to remove but it can be done without damaging the digitizer. Slow and steady! :good:
I replaced my severely cracked screen with a $6 replacement off ebay. Slooooow, steady process to remove the original screen being stuck to the digitizer with a clear adhesive. There are several videos on youtube to demonstrate the process. The new one works fine, although it is a little more reflective than the original. The touchscreen works well, but perhaps slightly less sensitive than before. A nice touch of the new screen is that the Back & Menu buttons are now blue, which looks good and is less bright than it used to be, which is an upgrade, to me. I'd say it leaves the phone about 95% as good as as it was before I dropped it. To me, well worth it to save $170 to extend the life of the phone until the S6 or S5 Prime or LG G3 or whatever phone is a big enough upgrade to make me jump. I did have a Note 3 for 9 days and it was epic, noticeably better than the S4 in pretty much every aspect, except that it was simply too big to deal with on a daily basis. But it did give me a nice dose of the level of performance I can look forward to with my next phone.
I also broke my glass few days ago and was thinking with replacing it with the new black edition glass that has no texture, just pure black. Does anyone know where I would be able to get my hands on that glass?
Thanks in advance!

If you don't want to mess with the adhesive buy the screen with the frame included. It's more expensive but much easier to replace and keep the phone in perfect condition.

Search eBay for "galaxy s4 screen frame genuine", at least if they send you a counterfeit item you can open a Paypal dispute for selling fake items.
You can buy the screen with the frame or not. I always buy with the frame.
Here's an example of the screen+digitizer (no frame), 132$
Genuine Samsung Galaxy S4 i9500 i9505 i337 M919 LCD Screen+Digitizer Touch Glass
Screen+digitizer+frame, 217$
Details about Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505 4G LTE Black Screen LCD Glass on Frame *GENUINE SAMSUNG*
The screen & digitizer will fit any S4 variant. But if you're buying one with the FRAME as well, there are 4 to choose from.
i9505 - fits i9505 ONLY
i9500 - fits i9500 ONLY
i545 - fits L720 & R970 also
i337 - fits M919 and i9505G also
I had mine done by a guy on Ebay.
http://www.ebay.com/usr/thumbstar?_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2754
Cost be about 65 bucks shipped. He uses the LOCA glue method (OEM style), not the double sided tape like most of the retail stores do. Sent it off and had it back within a few days. I just sent him my phone w/o battery and cover. Came back perfect in my opinion.
my local sprint store was going to repair my damaged LCD for $75... included new glass
