Spare digitizers on ebay... are the good?

Hello, since the screen (digitizer) has several annoying scratches I want to change it. I've searched on ebay and I've seen many cheap sellers for hongkong or china... Are those items as good as the original ones?

I purchased a new lcd and digitizer for my touch pro from ebay. I know its for a different phone but i cant see any difference between the diamond and touch pro other than the screen shape. (i have also had a diamond) It was £25 for the pair of them
To be totaly honest i cant tell the difference from the original. The touch works perfectly. The lcd screen is also equally as good.
As i tip i would get the digitizer and lcd as one unit, i have replaced several digitzers and lcd screens on alot of phones and it can be tricky seperating the 2. For the few extra quid in my opinion its not worth the hassle, or the risk of damaging one.

Thank you for the advice

eBay Screens are good IMO
I have purchased a couple of Digiter / Screen combos from eBay. So far I have not had a problem with any of them. One that I had ordered was from New York {HP iPaq}, & the other I ordered was from HK {T-Wing/Herald}. I just bought a used Diamond & it has a small scratch on the screen. This is annoying the Hell outta me so, I looked on eBay at screens. I usually try to find a true OEM replacement. I think that I found that @ this eBay page: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260468938303&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT . This is the best deal that I have been able to find. I know you're not in the US but maybe this helps anyway.

I bought a digitizer with lcd from ebay. The seller is from china or HK. The digitizer working good but the lcd quality abit lousy. display kinda dark compared to the original lcd. perhaps the pixel not same as the ori.
Anyway, if you think of just getting the digitizer, shud be fine. however you must be assure that you can replace it as it kinda difficult to change. unless you very confident on you soldering skill.

Source for replacement screens?

Checking to see if anyone knows of or has a source (other than eBay) for screen replacements for the focus. I've got a badly cracked screen that I'd like to replace, but samsung direct wants $156 and the cheapest on ebay is $98.xx coming from overseas. Everyone I found via google is in the $120's give or take now as well.
Kindof kicking myself for not picking one up when I had the 10% off ebay coupon and there were US sources at $98.

Just bought 2 screens from a wholesaler. Installed one and its working great. Need sim card replacement tray now. Can't find them anywhere. If anyone has a link please let me know.

I'd like to know where you got the screens too.

www.wholesalegadgetparts.com, US wholesaler, $99.00 bucks, BBB rated etc... I just ordered one.

******** UPDATE, this seller is legit. Fast shipping, and the new digitizer/screen is flawless.

How about some info on disassembly and replacement?

So, if your 2 year old is like mine, he's quite efficient at shattering your phone's screen. SO, I went online and found a replacement screen and set sbout installing it myself. I make no claim at any sort of electrical know-how... Damn it Jim, I'm a med student not an electrician. But I do enjoy my gadgets. Anyway, I went online and found some you-tube videos and successfully changed out the screen! Woo-Hoo! I used a hybrid of the two videos as one of them seemed a little too, much but it had a good rebuild sequence.
The first video has a good description of how to remove the screen (I didn't use the hair dryier and it worked just fine), and the second shows how to put it back. The second video should also be good to show how to replace other thinsg (camera, etc.).

I hope this helps people out there make their own replacements a success!

I have a cracked glass, the LCD and digitizer are fine. I have found someone that sells the outer glass for $16. My question is if I can get the digitizer off the old glass and onto the new one.
I honestly don't want to spend $100 on a screen replacement when I can buy a slightly used one for $150...

On ebay is 12dlls the glass, somebody told me that they fix it in a mall were i am from (Mexico) they heat the screen to disolve the glue but i'm not sure about this. The total of the price should be like 35dlls the replacement.

Replacement LCD and digitizer combo

I pick this one up for $100 from Best Buy when it was first released I think I was on a pre-order and I used it for about a month and I loved it for the price but I must have cracked the screen somewhere and I sent it in for warranty replacement because the phone will turn on ring and be usable except the screen will not turn on. I finally heard back from the warranty company and they told me that the screen is cracked and was not covered so I've been looking around for a place on screens all over the Internet for this phone and it's Chinese equivalent the Gionee elife s Plus and I can't find any. From what I've been able to ascertain there is a screen and digitizer combo that's pretty hard to separate or fix one or the other. Does anyone have a resource to find replacement parts for other possible other phones that use the same screen or digitizer that I can use in here?

This site has a screen : ww w bluphoneparts c om

Thanks for sharing that, I had found that site, but the price is a little high as the phone itself was $100 new, and they only have the black, not the gold color that came with my phone.

Touchscreen crack replacement?

Today I got accident and my screen cracked a bit. But, everything function normally(touch, LCD or screen). So the question: do I need replace screen digitizer(touchscreen) only or must replace both LCD&touchscreen?
I read somewhere, must replace touchscreen+lcd but in my case it is only cracked screen, LCD working fine.

Glass and LCD are glued together and those are also glued into frame. It's possible to replace screen by purchasing glass + lcd as 1 unit but this means you have to pry the old glass from the phone's frame.
What I did was I just bought frame + lcd + glass as 1 unit form Ebay. It's much easier and risk that you'll break something is much lower.

Thanks for info m8...

Today my Nexus 5X screen has cracked. However the touch responses and the colours are still great. Just the front screen cracked.

Question Where to buy an S21 Ultra 5g screen replacement in the US

Spoiler: TL;DR - Front screen broken
Hi, I currently live in the US and just dropped my phone and cracked the screen. Series of misfortunate events that is extremely frustrating. Screen protector was being replaced and it dropped from waist height onto a completely empty floor, minus a tiny pebble. My phone landed perfectly flat which caused the pebble to chip the edge and crack the front glass. Bottom half of the screen is black and the top half doesn't respond to touch. Also, my rotation is locked portrait so I can barely do anything -- I have to lock out the fingerprint reader (which doesn't work) three time in order to have the draw a pattern sit lower down so I can access the top dots.
I have the dual sim version (SM-G998B/DS 512GB) and I'm hoping I can buy a screen to fix my device. Going through my insurance / mobile service provider (tmobile) is a problem since they want to replace it with the 128GB single sim version.
Where can I buy a screen / what other options are there available?
EDIT: If they do send me the 128gb version, does anyone know if I can swap the screens and send them back that device? I'm not sure if all of the parts are compatible, especially since I have the exynos version vs the snapdragon they are sending.

Buy the screen on ebay

I guess my question is are the screens compatible across different versions of this device.
