Hello,
Well , I have a big problem with my SGS at the moment , the problem is that my screen is defect. Well , the screen still works as it should(touch , thank god) but I has alot of big scratches.
Believe it or not , but I dropped my sgs like 3 times before on 1 meter height on hard underground , It survived without scratches , btw I dont know if it did land on the screen so maybe thats the reason why my screen survived before. But today i was sitting and I had the phone in my pocket and when I wanted to stand up it dropped out of my pocket on the ground , from 0,5 meters height on a soft floor(carpet) but I discovered those big scratches and I was shocked
/Now the important part , is there any way to repair this???
By putting new glass on the screen or something? Maybe there is someone who experienced the same and knows how and where it got repaired?
Thanks in advance,
Picture of the state of my screen in attachments , sorry for the vga webcam quality.
Looks like the glass got shattered.
There would be no way to fix a Crack or a Scratch. You will have to replace the Digitizer and Display.
Dude, that's why you should use screen protector on it.

Thanks for your help.
Sorry man. Some people just wouldn't use screen protector, but 1-5€ could have saved you from this.

'Defect' LOL. My car was 'defective' after I wrapped it around a telephone pole.
Would a screen protector prevent a shatter like that? Perhaps to a limited extent but I though they were mainly for scratches.
I do my SGS bareback. No significant scratches yet, I think last time I cleaned the screen up and looked really close I could see one tiny line.
I've dropped once onto pavement (dented the bezel) and once on a wood floor (flew out of my hand as I whipped it out and bounced across the room lol).

Sorry sir , if your screen(or glass whatever)is shattered. In fact , its also defect. 1. a lack of something necessary for completeness or perfection; shortcoming; deficiency
But who cares?
Looks like these general subboard is full of trolls , I'm asking for advice where and how to repair your screen when its in a state like this? All I get is people who try to act smart or whatever you wanna call it.
Just dont post if you cant make sense

Thanks , never thought of looking @ assecories bord xD
You could try and replace it yourself which is probably cheaper or you can ring samsung and tell them what happened and have them replace it/send a new phone for you. Obviously it would cost you.
@dehem333
Very sad to hear that loss...
I have no idea how to fix it. But I pray that it gets fixed someway.
Wish u best of luck!

Well just replacing the glass is not gonna work because the touch digitizer and the glass are like one. So you,ll have to buy it completely new. Also its not easy to replace it. Its glued together. Youll need to be handy.
If your buying off ebay make sure its an amoled screen. Alot of lcds on ebay.

I have a question, is there a way to remove the scratches from x8 screen?
My screen really looks bad and the worst part and that makes me trully sick is that it wasn't even my fault! You know when friends ask you to see your cell and send it straight to the floor? That's it.
Would it help if I used screen protectors now? I heard it disguises it.
Thanks in advance!

if am not mistaken the x8 is scratch resistant,see if u have a screen protector on already,check edges of the screen,its better to put on a screen protector

I don't think it has a screen protector, if it does it isn't noticeable. I remember it came with one but I took that out many months ago.
Thanks anyway
I have screen protector from ebay or dealextreme (not sure any more) and it's almost unnoticeable visualy and touchscreen works with no difference.
If phone came with one already on, I have 2 now and have no problem with that
If you want to change it you only need to change digitizer. It's not too expensive. You can put cypres one for real dual touch if you don't have one now.

Thanks! I'll check fo prices of the digitizer. Mine is synaptics (I think it's called that), do you think cypress is better? I know it has errors with some roms/kernels.
Bro,you will have real dual-touch with cypress:>.

sorry for my bad english
what....???how,...??DUDE that's Gorilla Glass....anyways i don't think it would be covered in warranty though as it is a physical Damage..see if u have any hTC service centers near by and they repair it for u ..u might need to pay
If you have USB debugging enabled you can view your screen using the android sdk. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1496213
Otherwise I think you're out of luck. There's a couple of threads about replacing the screen in the forum though.

Hello,
I need to replace a galaxy s5830 glass, but I am confused about digitizer, is the digitizer connected to the glass? or it's separated from the glass and connected to the lcd like in Galaxy s3? or I really have no idea about neither, and even in the galaxy s3 the digitizer is not connected to the LCD?
Anyway, I was thinking of buying a digitizer+glass together but I didnt know how to glue it, will that be ok?

Thanks all :cyclops:
I also cracked mine. as far as I know the Digitizer and glass is the same thing and not connected to the LCD. Please help us understand someone....

Yep, I think that each phone has a different construction method. some phones have glass and digitizer together, like the s5830, some have digitizer and LCD together like galaxy s3.
but still, I need to find the materials to get a proper adhesion, I want it to be very similiar to the original.
Do I need LOCA too? or double sided tape is enough?
can I use one of these instead?http://www.ebay.com/itm/2x-for-Samsung-S5830-Galaxy-Ace-Touch-Screen-Digitizer-Adhesive-Sticker-ZVRT005-/300630210770?pt=US_Other_Cell_Phone_Accessories&hash=item45fef4f8d2

I know there are some videos but none of them actually discuss the adhesive =/ or at least no one says how is the feeling of the touch after replacing to a new screen without applying LOCA.
*Hey, is it possible to use OCA instead of LOCA (non-liquid clear adhesive? or I'd better use the liquid one)
Thanks!
Always try looking in the comments section -_- they discuss there

Hi just dropped my xperia z from about 5 foot height onto pavement and the screen is not broken but it isnt responding to any touch.
Is there any chance it can be fixed without fitting a new screen?
That mean touch may be broken get to some hardware repairs shop

just asked the guy who fixes my phones he said bring it in and ill see, said it could be digitizer which if it is then im ****ed.
had enough of this, broke the screen 2 months ago and spent £150 fixing it and £20 for a broken sensor.
arghhhhh.
Flashed a new firmware on it whilst deleting everything on the phone through pc companion but still no luck.
Im confused here, the phone guy said the digitizer is built in with the screen but im checking on ebay and theyre selling a seperate digitizer.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5-Touch-S...K_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item4d1637f583
So if the screen is ok and digitizer broken would installing a new one fix it?
Let me know please, confused and angry,
Apparently the screen and digitiser are glued together, making it extremely likely that one or the other will break when attempting to separate them.

Hi I'm trying to find a case that will protect my screen something like a thin plastic sheet my mate has such a cover for his iPhone 5.
Or is there a thick screen protector that someone can recommend?
