Go to service centre.
Samsung Galaxy S Advance
Rom : Jelly Bean 4.1.2 I9070XXLQ4
Kernel: CoCore E-4.2-TWRP

I already did it, but they want to replace the glass and the lcd screen, which is almost the same price of a new phone

I'm brazilian and they are charging R$ 540,00, more less U$ 270,00....

Im pretty sure the "glass" you're talking about is a unit with the lcd.... you cant change it separately. And yes, it's by far the most expensive part on a phone nowadays.

Are you sure this device has gorilla glass? Btw it's just a single piece, I recommend you to buy a bricked i9070 and replace the motherboard from your device to the bricked device, (easiest than replacing lcd), or you can replace the lcd (maybe from i9070P too) it's the cheapest solution for you

I am sure.. Gorilla glass behaves different.. It's kind of bouncy when you tap with your fingernails or use a pen.. Same feedback from s2 and ace.. I think it's possible to replace only the protective glass
.. Unless the lcd and protective glass are fused (like in s2)

Yes, I heard about that our brazilian SII don't have Gorilla Glass, btw I'm sure that GSA doesn't have it too. I'll keep my phone until it get unusable or maybe I'll give it to my mother and buy another one!

After watching some videos on youtube, and find this front glass replacement at ebay Screen replacement... I would like to know if I could do the same thing to replace my GSA's front glass?!

first of all, it seems that's much more difficult to replace broken glass on such a device than just replace a lcd in a simple phone like nokia e51 or anything like that. according to some guy in another forum, at home you'd never be able to replace glass only in a device like galaxy s/s2 or s3 - it's told to be some kind of gel between the glass and the digitizer that you'll never be able to put it back together to make it look and work like brand new - even on successful tearing apart the old parts and putting them together to work, you'd still have some odd dull sound of empty space when tapping the screen IF YOU SUCCEED, but I repeat it's not obvious - guess why s or s2 with broken glass are so cheap? yeah, got it - it's really not easy to do it by yourselves.
btw. don't spread rumours about the brazilian i9070 to be deprived of gorilla glass - i9070 doesn't have gg, nowhere in the world. samsung sites were displaying this information some time ago but they seem to remove it - they no longer boast of gg in i9070

I had an LG Optimus 2X P990 with GG, and I replaced the glass by myself that time. It was was pretty easy.

X-Ray Image Nexus 5

Hi,
I made a X-Ray image from my Google Nexus 5 @ 75kV. 8mA, three different contrast settings.
NFC, Qi charge coil, accu, cameras, speaker... readily identifiable.
Furthermore the high absorbtion of the ceramic power button and volume rocker.
Have fun!

Nice. The brighter one cut on the screen area would be a cool wallpaper.

Hmm, I'm thinking something different... I was looking for something suitable to use as a drive icon, for when the phone is plugged in to the computer. I think this might be it!

This is really cool - and yeah, some high-res images for wallpapers would be grand.
Even better, use it as a background for the N5 cropped to the right resolutions.

OK, CT scan next

I will check tomorrow if I it is possible to take a picture in higher resolution.

Hi Guys,
here an other one, combinated two pictures with a bit more sharpness.
A higher resolution is not possible with the hardware I get here, sorry for that! I think i could record a new image playing around with the camera frequency (=focus level) but i dont want to x-ray my phone 20 times to get an image which is a little bit less blurred.
regards

Thx. Makes for a great background.

I think you have a faulty display. Vertical lines like that shouldn't be visible during normal operations. If I were you I'd go to a service center or get it replaced ASAP

Those lines are not visible during normal operations..only visible when it is in sleep mode..i called to moto care that stupid representative told me to clear cache to realove this issue...i pity on moto care...

I have also noticed that lines. But its not vertical line. Its small grid right.
It can be noticed from dirct sun light.

My phone has it also, you can only see it in direct sunlight at certain angles. I think it has to do with the components that make the screen work, I do not think its a defect at all

Mine has it too, but you can only see it if you catch a very bright light at the correct angle, I thought it was part of the display but even if it isn't I'm not too concerned, my display is perfect in other regards (no yellowing or touch screen issues).

May be I didn't notice it due to Many many scratches on screen guard

Verticals lines are nothing but digitizers...not a defect...

Uneven light AFTER screen replacement.

Hi all.
This is a followup to the thread with clear cover cause scratch. Seems like many of us (if not all) have uneven capacitive buttons (brightness), see my photo. How is this possible? Mine was ok before, and my girlfriends untouched S6 is equally bright.
What shall we do about it? If there are many, we must do something. I thought it was just me, a bad screen or something. Seems to be bigger than that..
So please fill in IF you have this issue after replacement of screen. Pic is great, if samsung is reading

I don't use the lights under the button's on my edge because I think the phone looks much better without. But I've just switched mine on to test and there both the same brightness. I've not yet had my phone replaced or reared for that matter... so if I have to go down the repair route I'm telling them before they start...make damn sure my buttons light the same or they do it again...
Check before leaving with the handset repaired.

The case looks cool and I like the idea of the tempered glass. I just recently put a Punkcase on my Note 8 basically because the case I had wouldn't work properly with wireless charging and when I was at the check out in Walgreens, Samsung Pay wouldn't work. The Punkcase is IP68 and works with the Samsung Pay and wireless with ease. I think I might order this Spigen case too.

The Amazon reviews seem to lean towards great case...horrible screen protector. Don't know if I am taking the plunge on this one.

i wonder if this case works with whitedome, i think ill place and order and respond.
