front screen digitizer - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

My screen has cracked on the inside, so as i understand it i need a new front screen digitizer, they seem to go for between £100 and £150 on ebay, but, i can only find i9300 ones, not i9305, will the i9300 digitizer fit the i9305?
thanks

Go to a Samsung center, you keep warranty and pay 110£. Search for Samsung UK service locator and find the nearest to you.

hi, i've already opened the phone up i'm afraid, as i replaced just the glass once before which worked great but after a month the screen stopped working (started having lines through pic etc then just stopped altogether) so i opened once more to see if a ribbon was loose but cracked inside trying to do so.
I can easily fix this myself just need to know if the i9300 part will work or where i can find the i9305 part.
really hope someone can help
thanks

It happened to me that I broke the outside glass of I9305, brought it to authorized service center and they charged me 130£ to replace whole display . Upon collection I've been refunded 20£ because they charged me the I9300 reparation fee, while I9305 was cheaper. And the screen is an original Samsung spare part.

Plus I don't see the point, you still have to find the right piece to order, pay up to 150£, do the job with no warranty of success... it's a matter of one or two days if you bring it to a service center with no further risks.

[Q] Yep, I broke my screen! First one?

Hi there.
Brand new i9000.. first smartphone in my life.. and also the first one I broke in my life. Pretty ****ing annoying.
Everything still works, even typing, just the screen is smashed into a 1000 pieces. Dropped it out of my pocket on a concrete floor when I took my pants of. Lesson: Never take your pants off!
This is how it looks:
/edit: ****! I am not allowed to post photo's?
Found this (Dutch, but that's where I am from) webshop, selling a new screen:
/edit: ****, I am not allowed to post URL's!
It's called: "Samsung i9000 Galaxy S Display module compleet incl. touchscreen" Looks like this:
/edit: ****! I am not allowed to post photo's?
Is it the right screen? And if yes, can I install it myself? The thing is, just the outside is broken.. do I need this set? And where can I find a manual?
Thanks!

Any replica screens that do not come from samsung, will not be super AMOLED.. As this is one of the biggest things with the SGS I'd pay the extra and get it done at a reputed samsung repair centre!! Dunno where in holland you are but they have plenty of repair centres, had to visit one in Harleem myself the other day.... ANY Repairs carried out by you will void the warranty... Also is there no way you could just add accidental damage to your cover!!!... wait a couple of days then make a claim!!
I can't claim it anywhere.
So, I wanne put a Super AMOLED screen in myself. Anybody any idea where I can get a screen from? I can't post links here, pretty annoying.
Guy on Ebay sells them:
"yes, it is genuine LCD + touch screen with 4 inch Super AMOLED screen for samsung i9000"

Contact him ask him what the part number is!! call samsung and check it with them! It could be all good, most of the times is!... but there are alot of con-artists on ebay so for the matter of a phone call to check the authenticity.... I'd say it's worth it! also check with samsung if they sell the spares themselves or they will give you the name of an authorized stockist of their spares!! Worth checking out their prices!
Good luck!

[Q] Is my AMOLED screen defective? will samsung replace it?

Last friday, my phone started to have a pink tint near the bottom of the screen. Since then, this pink has spread across half the screen. I still have about 1 month on my manufacturers warranty, however, a few months ago i replaced my screen with an OEM one i found on ebay.
I did a bit of research and i found out AMOLED screens at one point had a pink screen defect on certain phones.
Has anyone encountered this problem?
Would you guys risk sending it into the repair depot for repairs? The customer representative told me if my phone is physical/water damage free, they will repair it under samsung's manufacturer warranty.
I don't want to lose 25 shipping it there and another 25 for the phone assessment only to find that it isnt covered...
Any ideas?
Dont worry friend...just send it to service center and they will replace it.Dont dealy,you cannot solve this problem by your own.
100% chances are that samsung will replace it.My friend also had such issue and samsung replace it and handed the phone in 3 days.In our country,you have to walk to service center to obtain warrenty.No shippibg here

if u changed the screen then how come ull get any replacement,i doubt it...go to a sammy center an replace the screen..u cant repair the pink or watever the screen as got...gudluk
the first screen needed replacement due to a crack. i knew samsung wouldnt cover the cracked screen so i replaced it myself. however, this time the OEM screen now has a tint of pink
Manually walk to a Samsung center and ask then that can this he repaired under warranty? If they say no ask them what cost they will take to repair it and if the cost ain't high go for it get a new screen ! Don't think a lot in such matters Coz at last u will have to get it repaired by some means! Hope I helped!

It will be good idea to walk manually to samsung service center.Dont tell them that in past u replaced the screen and also dont act like technical expert with them.Just behave as noob and i think you will have success

Sadly,i dont have a samsung repair center within walking distance. For me its actually 13 hour drive <- way.
The repair center requires me to send via purolator to their facility then pay them a 25 dollar inspection fee. They do no have walk in service.
This is why i wanted to ask for everyone's opinion before i invest another 50 dollars into something that has already failed me twice...

No display on brand new galaxy note n7000

Hello Friends,
I got my note before 1 week after that i updated it to ICS 4.0.3 via samsung kies software but after that i m facing problem like no display on screen sensor working because when i touch phone it vibrates and phone front menu keys lighten up . It really annoyed me i contacted to samsung customer care they told me software issue because it is not properly updated via kies, but service center engineer saying hardware issue he is saying that they have to change motherboard and lcd of the phone so i told him please change i phone and replace me with new one but they are denying only saying that we will change the parts but i m having doubt on them because they make money from samsung so plz help me what to do living in INDIA.
One more issue facing that after update i installed NFS shift game works but when play only white screen shows no car no world details nothing plz help...........
If there is SW issue then check with rebooting to Download mod (vol down + Home +power)
If it is successfull, then flash any stock ROM
If engineer told you, then likely it should be HW issue and it is new so they will change under warranty, usually replacement you can get if issue withing 24 hrs of purchase, this remains common policy.
Lol...they always say they can't replace your phone.But if you shout like a rogue before the customers,they will come to a deal .And you also call the customer care and say your problem and ask them for the replacement.they will talk to the service centre and they may agree for replacement.
This is my real life experience with my SGS 8-9months back All you must do is repeated follow up behind the SC guys and CC.Then they will be forced to replace....But make sure remember any identification mark on your phone before you give it.Those bastards may just replace mobo and display and give it back.
Though there is nothing costly apart from the mobo and your display.They make up nearly 25k-27k and the reset is just 5-7k

I have SGS 1 and just broke the screen after 1 month, that never comes under warranty though i got replacement. Its totally depends on multiple things. I have note of my friend with flash counter 10, even i replaced under warranty. this happen just b'coz service centre owner is my patient. But in routine terms they hardly gives replacement after 48hrs.

Simply check if your original IMEI has changed.If it has,They have replaced the mobo.IF not not,maybe they just fixed it as it would been a software issue.My friend's phone's IMEI got changed when he replaced his Note's mobo.But it was out of warranty as it was water damaged.And generally authorized SC guys dont get that must cheap to say they have replaced mobo when they havent.As they have to provide you the job sheet and enter the same into the server.So samsung has records of what they do.
As for the games,I think its a software issue.Just try to flash a stock rom again

Confirming from Samsung office
As i contacted to samsung customer care they are not sure whether IMEI no .will change or not after replacing motherboard. Because My Cell's IMEI no is same which is on the bill ( i checked it now)that means no IMEI no. changed which simply means no motherboard replacement (according to ur experience). This means Samsung Service center cheated me then how he can write on the receipt motherboard replaced. I saw that slip on which they wrote POB changed. As all data is feeded online then? Why he kept phone for a week saying that motherboard is coming& all.
And also samsung service center guy told me that by replacing handset by new one My phone's IMEI no. will change ( that means not found on the bill because previous one is different from new one ) and also issue of sale's tax and all he is saying that samsung will not change piece so, i have question how you guy's got new one's?
Please help me guy's.......................

Because service center guy will take it personally ......................
Second if they dont replace (because cc guy told me no confirmation of replacement ) service center guy will ruin my phone now what to do ?

Indeed, chances are it will be close to 50% of the price of a new one with the chance of them messing it up instead of fixing it. And you will be without a tablet during the repairs (which can be 5 weeks + from what I've read others say). Probably best to cut your losses and get a new one. But since it's apparently a hard to give answer, I'm beginning to become curious as well

[Q]Lcd Broken HELP!!

Today I had the worst accident My phone fell and a door closed on it. I want to know if the screen and digitizer on our phone is the same as those on I9000 (galaxy s) because they seem to be cheaper in Greece where I live. Any suggestions of cheap international online shops is deeply appreciated. Thank you all in advance.
Please, if you already make a [Q] in the title, post it in the Q&A Thread, this is not related to development!
new screen costs around 180$ right? (rediculous price tbh) if i remember correctly.
maybe sending it to samsung is even better
I wanted to do this and roght now I was going to edit my post to tell everyone that there is no Thread for Q&A only for I9001 so I did it in here

Brood I do not care for a genuine Samsung screen just one to work! In Greece it is about 100 Euros and 60-70 Euros on eBay and I do not think they are genuine in either case.

make sure is not the i9003's screen, because is a different type of screen (9000: amoled - 9003: super lcd)
Emmm... Screen or only glass and digitizer is broken? That's is very important. Becouse new glass and digitizer cost less than 60-70$ and it's easy accessible on ex. ebay.

Its impossible to replace the digitizer without damaging the amoled. They sell the item but its useless.
Amoled, digitizer and the Gorillaglas are guled together, forever!

If you know what are you doing, then you can replace this
Both are broken screen and digitizer because when touching the screen the light do not light and when I make a call to my phone I can not answer it. So I am going for a screen and digitizer has anyone tested anything or has anything to propose. I am looking for the cheapest and most sure to work combination. Thank you all for your replies
OK. Last question I am thinking to buy this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Genuine-Whi...437?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d066c387d
I have the black SGS+ so I thought to also change the color! Will it be suitable for my phone or I will have trouble in assembly because of the other parts included?
I9000 and I9001 are the same in dimension, the only thing that is different is the camera and cpu. I thought it was explained before in this post. Take the phone to a service with the newly bought lcd/digitizer and they will fix it.
Oh, and don't complain about prices, if you want your phone to be fixed and work as new, pay some cash. Otherwise try fixing it yourself
