Galaxy home button excessive loosened - General Questions and Answers

I replaced the display + lcd of a Galaxy A500FU.
However, the home button was not provided with the (cheap) Chinese display and I cannot understand why it is loosened, 'loose' inside its housing, it almost seems like it is missing under a spring or something that supports it,
I enclose photo.
Does it have to actually have a spring underneath?
that maybe I lost in the disassembly?
how could i solve?
maybe putting something elastic underneath to do the spring function?

Find some videos on YouTube that give a demonstration of disassembling and reassembling your specific model number.
That should tell you if you missed anything.

The display is actually disassembled so i can do something now before to glue it. Maybe putting some little foam under the button

How to open your Daxian x999+ Case

The following will show you how to open the case.
I did it becasue one of the switches was bad.
Take off the battery cover and battery, remove the SIM and SD cards.

Remove the flip cover that covers two screw plate holes.

Look to the 4 phillips head screws and remove. Now comes the delicate part.
there are 3 snap ledges on each side of the phone. Use a very small flat head screw driver to pop or pry the cover off the chrome edge. Be carefule not to scratch the chrome. It pops off just like any other wedged case.
If you want to seperate the LCD from the circuit board, there are 3 sticky pads holding them together.
Notice the LCD connector and the small connector for the touch panel.
Enjoy.
Pictures taken with my Android G1.
Interesting. Quite a bit different from my M88. And I thought all of the T32, Daxians, and M88 phones were almost the same!
M88 has the same 4 screws / pry up the chrome bezel dissassembly but the board layout is different and overall the desig different,.
Whats so strange, I offered to XDA-Developers a Daxian x999+ to disect, to see if they can gain access to the ROM for reading and writing. This was done a month ago, no one has come forward from XDA to say we are interested.
Does anybody know where is possible to buy cover plates for daxian x999?

Craig CMP738A Panel Defect

This is my second one not purchased in the same store. I see the same issue that I had with the prior. Funny a different state and different CVS upscale drug store and it still has the same issue. I bet all of them this way and most buyers are unaware of this issue with the panel. Either Anti-Glare film wasn't applied correctly or the the panel is not assembled correctly. No QCI, if there were this wouldn't have pass inspection and be rejected.
Down below you can see what's going on. If you do firmware update or factory reset i you can see how bad it is.

I've posted the above at many forums so far this reply was the best answer.
I have noticed that text cutoff on the left edge of mine, too (landscape with "Craig" logo on top). Looks either like a classic video adjustment issue (hsync on LCD possible?), or imprecise placement of the LCD panel within the bezel, which I suspect is more likely considering the price point. Simple fix: rotate 180 degrees for apps where it matters like a terminal session
But then the placement of the top layer on the screen (protector? anti-glare? digitizer?) might be more noticeable as there is a gap of about that same 1mm or so on that side. Hmm... maybe that is also imprecise screen placement issue - everything shifted that way? Oh well, for <$100 we may have to overlook the "edge cases"

Simple test to see if you run CM3.apk

Now that I have my Orb... what do I do with my pad?

Did you make some sort of cradle?

No... It is sitting on the pad. I mounted the pad on a RAM mount diamond plate using 3M double sided adhesive tape. I then used some low compression, rubber weather stripping to form the "U" to cradle the phone. Fits like a glove and works perfect.
Total cost... 3 bucks (I already had the RAM hardware), a trip to Home Depot, and about a half hour of my time.
Looking at the pic, it's hard to tell if the power button is covered or not. If not, it looks good. Just get a nfc tag and setup everything. If it is, wouldn't it be more of a pain to get access for waking the phone up?
Just curious but excellent innovation.

The "U" comes up to just 1/4 inch below the power button, and that same clearance for the volume rocker.
I actually use a Tasker location profile so no nfc tag necessary.
Took it for its first extended test drive yesterday and it works well. Phone is very secure, and easily removed and replaced with one hand.

[Q] [Repair Question] [Hardware] Broken Screen Options - Please advise?

I have a Sprint Galaxy S5. Unfortunately it had an accident and fell screen first.

It powers on, all sensors function fine, the digitizer works, the touch sensor works, and the rotation works. The insurance deductible is $180 I believe. I dont want to pay that and risk getting a refurbished phone since it is only 2 weeks old.
Are there outfits that are NOT Samsung Repair that can replace the glass? That is all that seems to be broken.
Also are there other things that are possibly damaged that i am not aware of? it fell from about chest hight while texting onto a concrete sidewalk screenside first. Everything works so far it's just very finger slicey. Advice on what is also possibly broken or could break if not careful until i finally get it fixed would also be great. Thank you.
Quick search found these links.

You also need the tools and skill. I wouldn't try on a new phone. If you rip it apart and ruin it insurance doesn't cover that.
Then you have this option to keep your phone which will be "refurbished" afterwards.

Is there any 3rd party equivalent to this? I want the smart window functionality via NFC. It would be great to know beforehand so that I have something else to choose from.

This is not "via NFC" (except for pairing), the smart window is detected with a magnet.
Ok I stand corrected. But yes, something like that.

I was looking around online and found this...llit seems to have a window similar to the Sony style cover but is different. I hope the link works for you...

There are lots but with no Smart Window functionality.

I got a SCR42, and to be honest it's not THAT useful
I have the original case SCR42 and for me it is very functional when it comes to the window. Especially if someone is calling. Then you can see right away, and you can answer or reject the call without opening the case.
If you want to quickly take a picture, it does not need to open the case, because the preview is scaled to the window.
i bought it and don't like it. It lacks one of the main functions. there is no Access to phone book or at least speed dial/favourites and you have to open the case to make a call.
i removed it and bought panzerglass (tempered glass) + TPU and face an even bigger problem. panzerglass presses on the proximity sensor and the screen goes blacj during a call.
honestly the phone Works best without any accessorries. Save your money.
