I have a friend that broke his glass on his Metro Pcs branded S3. Will any s3 digitizer fit or does it has to be specific? Also Where is the best place to buy one, and where are instructions on how to disassemble the s3? Thanks!

I just bought an Samsung Galaxy S3 with broken glass very cheep, so my question is it possible to only change the glass and not the digilizer? I found some on ebay for 17€ and if i have to buy the digilizer it cost around 200€. Maybe just with an very strong hairdryer?
Any tip?

Had you any success?
I plan on buying a new digitizer to replace the one on my phone since I manged to scratch it just before my screen protector arrived (there was a backlog of undelivered parcels at my post office, my screen protector should have been there BEFORE my phone -.-)
I'm pretty comfortable with the process of replacing the digitizer, but I've got a quick question (maybe not so quick to be honest.)
We should have all seen (and most likely drooled over) the new colours being released, I was wondering if a digitizer from the US Sprint or Verizon variants of the s3 would fit my uk/international s3? I'd love to get my hands on the silver digitizer and back plate, but I don't want to fork out £200 to find out it doesn't fit!
Is there anyone who could shed some light on this? would carrier specific radios be located on the back of the digitizer or something?
Cheers!
If you buy a new digitiser ..... Don't throw the old one ...I will buy it from you..

I want to change the front glass from S II (digitizer I guess) but I can't find any guide online, I only get full screen replacement guides, so I searched for S III and it have s couple of guides, I have some experience taking apart phones (I changed the front glass too for my old Droid Bionic and iPhone 3gs) but i am a bit scared about put some heat on the screen and i dont know what glue it needs, so somebody knows how to do all this crap?

Digitizer is heavily glued with the lcd itself, chances are very small that u will succeed to replace only the digitizer, wothout doing damage to the lcd.All those auctions on ebay are...nearly scams,because it's almost impossible to separate digitizer and lcd, don't fall for it. I have tried to do this on HTC HD2 and fail.

Does anybody here know ANYTHING about this phone? I can get it for about 30$ from a friend. The problem is it's screen is shattered and I can't replace it because official s3 parts wont fit in this ugly housing. I was thinking about replacing it's whole body for the official one and then replacing screen glass but I'm not sure if parts will fit. This prototype appeared on the internet about 3 weeks before official s3 premiere so I hope it's in fact a final hardware design. Every help/info is appreciated.
Hi there -
Hi there! So recently I dropped my s4 and the glass stayed intact but the lcd cracked and screen went black. I have a friend with an AT&T s4 (mine is verizon) and his screen is mint. Can I remove the lcd from his safely and transfer it to mine? I know when I removed mine I broke the lcd silver film, but mine was already cracked so no biggie. Will the AT&T lcd unit fit and can I safely remove it and put it on mine? Thanks so much!

Is it also possible that I could remove the verizon motherboard and install it into the at&t body? Also to clear up some things, from the AT&T phone I need the glass+digitizer+LCD - full assembly. Would it be easier to transfer verizon parts to at&t body (will it even work?) or will it be easier to remove the whole display unit and pretend like I just bought the part online and need to install it.
Thanks guys!
