screen and digitizer cost around 100 US dollars. maybe you could try sending it to samsung if you have varranty
well if you want to install a new one buy the screen off ebay or a samsung reseller and follow this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745262

I dropped my Samsung Focus and broke the screen glass. The touch screen works fine and i think only the outer screen glass has to be replaced.
I have searched on internet and found DIY repair videos to replace the LCD screen, but couldn't find any info about replacing the outer glass alone. But read its pretty hard to seperate the glass from LCD and replace it !!!
The LCD screen is costing around 120$ and the outer glass is costing 10-16$. I do not want to spend more unnecessarily if i can find a way to replace the outer glass myself.
Also, Samsung Focus is not oficially released here in India here, so i don't think i can approach the samsung itself.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Samsung focus lcd broken
Hi pranav. Same here , i have a samsung focus and lcd + outer glass screen is broken. In one of the screen replacement video i saw , the outer screen and the lcd as one unit and not seperate. Though , i am not completely sure.
Did you find a way to get the lcd or the outer glass for your phone in India?
Please contact me on [email protected]
Did you find a source for the replacement glass only? Please share.
I found only glass on eBay (hongkong or china i suppose). When i spoke to people from service center, all of them were saying it is not possible to replace only glass and they wont do it !!! i i don't know if it is really tough or they do not want to take much pain replacing glass and want to replace the whole LCD set which is easy for them.
And the total LCD + Digitizer + glass kit, i found it for 103$ in eBay US, and for 120 - 140$ in some other repair sites and Amazon.
Waiting for get the replacement from US as it costs less and get it fixed in a samsung service center.
Don't think that's possible. After all, the whole point of "super" in super amoled is that the glass is bonded to the display.

I've purchased the glass only and I'm waiting for it to arrive. It was very cheap and if it doesn't work, I'm not going to be too upset for buying it for about $11.00.

Amazon also has unit which is the LCD and digitizer already assembled.

I can update if and when I receive my replacement glass from gogotoshop. I find the place questionable but used paypal and can dispute the transaction if it isn't legit.
BTW....removing the glass & digitizer is not an easy task. From attempting to remove my broken screen, I don't think it is possible to remove it from the LCD as the previous posters mentioned.
mine is i937
Thanks for reply, But my phone is Samsung focus s (i937), and I didnot find the front class or Digitizer or LCD or all together.
I have the same problem the front glass broken. other things are ok, I asked on sumsung service center they said the whole thing has to change, I am sure experts can change only the front class.
Anybody has any idea about if I can buy it in India or any site who can ship to India.
or in UK, my frnd is coming from there I will ask him to buy there for me.
Please guys help me.
Thanks,

So just like the samsung and iphone models, the focus and focus s can be done the same way? I know for a fact that the galaxy s4 Active is best done by machine. Since ive tried but failed to do one. I have removed the glass from a galaxy s3 mini successfully, should this phone be the same? Please respond quickly!
Thank you
I drop my SP and front glass cracked, it really looks ugly. But display and touch are functioning normally. So, my problem is how to replace it. I saw screen digitizers on ebay can be bought for 25-50 USD, but I read somewhere that it's not possible to replace only digitizer but you need to replace the screen as well. Another problem is, I saw a video on yt where a man bought faulty digitizer for sp on ebay.... So, I don't know what to do?

send it for repairs to sony centre
Not many options really.
1) Send your phone to somewhere where they can repair it for a cost.
Or
2) Buy one off ebay and give it a go yourself! If its faulty send it back.
I replaced screen on xperia arc. If you take your time and be patient its not hard. Not sure what answers you're looking for ha
As far as I was aware, for the arc, you had to replace screen and digitizer as one assembly.
The digitizer is kind of stuck to the screen, i.e. you cant do it yourself...easily.
I have never had to replace the in a cell phone before but my wife managed to break the glass on the S5 Active (SM-G870A).
Has anyone else had to deal with this yet? I have searched every source I could find for the glass but it doesn't appear to be on the market yet.
Searching Alibaba for the glass comes up with glass for an s5mini glass replacement :-/
Thanks in advance,
Dave
Really frustrated

Same here I dont believe there is a replacement glass yet, which is really frustrating when it comes to Asurian bull crap which is the insurance company for any sort of replacement devices.. $199 is the deductible .

Is just the glass broken? The digitiser is all OK? Just so you know there iscavhigh chance your phone will no longer be water/dust resident if you do this.
It's not hard. Do you have the tools? Heat gun (a hair dryer could work) pics ( guitar pick could work) .
Just go slow and make sure you heat the glass up lots.
If you want it to be 100% you will have to glue the digi to the glass. This all depends on how mechanically inclined you are and you will need more tools and skills.
I realize the OP is over a year old. But I was recently looking for a replacement screen for my S5 as well. I came across this website that also has a screen replacement for the G870A.

Also check ifixit.com for device tear down instructions.
Hello all.
So, the screen from my nexus 7 is broken, I had it in my back pocket with the minijack attached.
I got a tilapia version.
Is it worth it to replace the screen and the digitillizer?
If yes, do you recommend an online shop? I live in Germany.
I am not really familiar with eBay, I will use it only if it is really trustworthy vendor.
Thank you all in advance

I've tried - no Gorilla Glass in front so will brake in no time as mine did.
Not worth as an investment in my humble opinion.
Try searching ebay for the unit with the working screen.
ok i need some help here, i dropped my n7 and it seems the glass is cracked and thus digitizer fails completely (damn you single glass system).
Now i dont understand is what do i need, does it have to be touch screen + digitizer or is there simply top glass assembly cum digitizer online. i will be ordering from india so i dont think i will be able to get it replaced. so its just one time buy.
screen combo is massively expensive at 40$ something which is basically the cost of my tablet itself. however touch screen assembly seems to be just 10$ affair with free shipping. which one will be for me?? please help

If it's only glass cracked, then you can do it - just need some patience and skills to disassembly digitizer glass and LCD, you can look at THIS
I doubt you'll do it if you've never done something like this before, but you have nothing to loose.
the new lcd+digitizer you can get for about 20$ with free postage, if you search in right place - just checked it and found one for 19 in 1 min

well even $20 is huge for me at INR 1400, i went with digitizer only for $10. lets see if i have just trashed $10. i fear i might damage the lcd. thankfully i have a heat gun.

Hi,
The screen digitizer of my phone is broken. I live in New Caledonia and the screen for this phone can't be found in my country. Do you know where I can buy a screen digitizer and screen for this phone ?
Thanks,

Aliexpress has them but you may as well buy a replacement phone... A refurbished/unlocked S6 Active is not much more than a replacement digitizer.
