[Q] P6810 display separable from digitizer for repair purposes

I have a P6810. It has a broken display inside but the outside glass is good and the digitizer/touch screen still works. I mostly see offered entire assemblies consisting of display, digitizer and sometimes bezel for over $250. This is simply too expensive to repair a P6810. I would like to buy just the AMOLED w/o digitizer. Does anybody know of a source? Are display and digitizer able to be separated?

If you can figure out how to separate the amoled display from the digitizer/touch panel, I would be glad to buy the touch panel from you.. My 6810 still has a great amoled display, but has two cracks in the glass touch panel.
Thanks,

For other tablets, I see instructional videos on youtube where they use heat to unglue screen from digitizer. Seems tricky and I have not yet encountered any report of this working on a Galaxy Tab 7.7. That said, if you want to buy my P6810 for parts, please PM me. I've tested it with the multimedia dock using HDMI output, controlling it via the touch screen, so I know it is in working condition, except for the screen.

I sent my tab for repair lately at Samsung and they ordered the whole assembly [Digitizer+Bezel+AMOLED Display]. Because there is a portion in my screen that cannot pickup any touch input. They said they will install it with the whole assembly although the only problem is my digitizer. I think they sold it as a whole assembly and it will be risky if you separate the Digitizer from the AMOLED Display.

Thanks to those of you who replied to my earlier post. I'm just too insecure about trying to take my 6810 apart, so I guess I'll just wait until someone sells one without cracks in it. Darn!

@Fulaeetoy: How much did Samsung charge if you don't mind my asking?

Nothing. Warranty covers it all. I also requested a new backplate 2 months ago about my backplate getting scratch after they flashed a stock firmware in my tab. They replaced it without asking questions. I think the new backplate cost $60 and $250 for the new display assembly. :good::good: for their customer service!

Front Glass broken, replacement possible?

Hello,
I managed to drop my phone from not even 10cm(Gosh this thing is Slippy and fragile as F**k) on concrete and the Glass(not the Display!) broke.
So i was searching on the internet for glass replacement and found one on ebay,but i have also heard that it is quite difficult to remove the glass withou damaging the Display/Touchscreen.
If someone knows if it´s possible or if i need a whole new screen i would appreciate it.

Have Samsung replaced it for you. Bring your S6 back to them for repair. It will remove glass compatibility and job quality problems.

Mine was not even a week old and it fell from my fking pocket onto asphalt/road and part of the screen cracked. It's the damn bulging rounded glass on the sides which make the phone so fragile compared to, say, an S4 which had flat screen!
The retailer does not cover broken glass and was asking 200+ dollars to repair!!
Bought a tempered glass for $16 and it's kinda usable although painful to look at now. And the fking dents on the sides of the aluminum case make it a more painful experience considering I invested all my money on the phone and was waiting to buy a cover for it. Wished I bought the $50 clear view cover when I got the S6

The only place in my area that can replace stuff like this is my provider vodafone.
But i dont really want to spend 200€ to have my Display replaced.

Bite the bullet and have the glass replaced then buy a protective case.

It is difficult to replace only the glass for your s6. I suggest getting a Samsung Galaxy s6 screen replacement with digitizer.

Bump..
How much is this front glass worth? A place here in Grand Rapids wants $275. See my g920p sceen isnt cracked but got smashed in a bit and glass under it is crushed there isnt any cracks in the top layer. But few glass chips floating around the front lens. The Phone did started seperating and I put a drop of glue on edge of screen and frame and held it in and its a still truckn. It works fine and I do got insurance with 200$ deductible for a refurbished phone from Phone Claim. Hey any idea how long that takes?. Replace the phone or is there another option out there to get it fixed?? I dont have any of those heating tools and not gonna make this my first replacment. Now the wifes S5 I may try it for a bit of exprience get things I need when its broke.

Glass broken

Hi
My nexus 5 has fallen down. Touch and everything is working graet. But the front glass is broken. Is it possible to replace just the front glass or must i replace the whole lcd+Touchscreen??
The whole lcd costs 80 €. Its too much for this old phone.
Thanks in advance

You need special equipment to separate the glass from lcd and there is a large chance that you break the lcd. LCD with Glass and plastic frame cost around 40USD on aliexpress or ebay

Yup, aliexpress.com is the way to go for a low price but the screen isn't quite as nice as an original LG screen. I've replaced the LCD/frame/digitizer on two N5s and it was very easy.

Drop damage

Hi, I have recently dropped my S7 and my screen broke, but it’s only smal black dot on side of amoled and one line trough glass. My biggest problem is that lower part of screen digitizer stoped working. I’ve searched all over ebay for new screen assembly with amoled and digitizer but it’s expensive ~170$. So I was thinking, can I replace only digitizer, they cost about 30-50$? I’m not sure because every video on YouTube that replaced only digitizer had fully working amoled. Do you guys have any experience? Any advice is appreciated

Hello,
As seen on some drop test videos, sometimes screen can be totally messed up but digitizer can still be working good. So my guess is that they work independently and so a new digitizer could work good even if the screen as some dead areas or lines etc...
But due to the fact that Samsung glue the glass with the digitizer and with the screen panel, it's a very difficult process to just remove the glass without scratching or breaking the Amoled panel. Better be well prepared to it, have the right tools and have a lot of dexterity and patience. It's already a big pain to separate the screen for the glass, so if you're planning to separate and replace only the digitizer, then good luck :-/
Before trying this, you still should call some repair centers to see how much it would cost for a screen replacement, but unfortunately it is most likely to be expensive. Also, be aware that buying yourself a screen replacement doesn't guarantee you that it will be an Amoled. A year ago, my brother broke his OnePlus 3 screen, and it was almost impossible to find an Amoled screen replacement, their description was saying Amoled, but by reading well, we could always find somewhere "TFT" or "LCD" which are not Amoled.
In the end, you have to be aware than any flagship phone cost an arm to repair, especially the screen as everything is glued and made for you not to be able to repair it yourself. So it is very highly recommended to protect your phone with cases and screen protectors (plastic screen protectors protect the screen better from shocks than glass screen protectors, even if plastic feels cheaper). Unless you have a lot of money and can easily pay a repair, protect your phone!
Sorry, that's all I can do for you...

Glass Replacement

Over the weekend I dropped my mix 2s and have cracked the bottom of my screen glass.
I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and fixed this. I have purchased a new glass on eBay: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/263620735738?ViewItem=&item=263620735738
I am planning to take it to a professional repair shop.
Is it likely that they will be able to separate the glass from the LCD and glue on this replacement? Is there any risk of this going wrong and my screen from acting weird afterwards?

No, it is in fact very unlikely they'll be able to separate them.
It will be more expensive but you'll have to get an lcd display and glass assembly all together.

According to this: Ali Express
LCD Only: If the image under the glass is broken and the touch panel is NOT then you only need an LCD.
Touch Panel aka Digitizer: If the top touch panel or aka glass top is cracked or broken but the image under it is fine then you only need the Touch Panel.
Complete Screen with Touch Panel and LCD: If the top touch panel is broken and the LCD image is either black liquid or cracked you need a complete screen.

According to that; If the glass is cracked, I only need the Digitizer replaced.
I am happy to get the whole thing, its just I have already ordered a Digitizer and thought this was all I needed. I could be wrong.

Any recommendation on the type of screen I should purchase for best results?

Hi i managed to change my whole lce by myself. Its quite hard only for heating the glue and opening everything. There is no guide on internet so i just follow mi mix 2 guide. I bought from aliexpress, 60 euro, claimed to be original, checked its JDI from cti app, and very good quality, color also very good, nothing weird, glass also oleophobic.

Any update on this? I'm in the same situation, front glass is cracked but phone otherwise fine. Replacement is only $10, but can just the glass even be replaced?

I just bought the whole LCD/Digitizer for $60, not even going to attempt to separate just the glass

Hey emanuel.caesar,
thanks for your helpful post. A few further questions from my side:
which lcd did you choose exactly? Are you still satisfied with the quality? And the last question Does the video guide for the Mi Mix 2 work for the Mi Mix 2s as well or are many things different? Thank you in advance for a short reply.

Hello,
Is not a good idea to try to just replace de LCD screen. I did this operation many times in the past and I can confirm that's a long operation (~1h30), there's a lot of risks that you break the digitizer and for a good result, you need LCD glue and a UV machine.
So, I think it's a better idea to replace all the screen: LCD + Digitizer.

Any suggested YouTube videos to replace the glass + LCD + digitizer?
Looking at a used phone with broken glass. It's like $10 for glass or $32 for the whole set and if I recall last time I had glass swapped it was like $60 labor and no guarantee the LCD wouldn't break. I'm pretty technical have repaired plenty of phones Android and iPhone. Anyone have a good link for removing the LCD / digitizer / glass unit? Is this like the Samsung where you need to use a blow dryer to heat the adhesive to get it off? Or like an iPhone where you just take screws out and pry the panel out? Much appreciated
