Seems like the proximity and light sensor hole... The reason why it's blue is that it is covered by a piece of protective film to protect it from the dust and finger print.

If we mark anything as OEM in the title then it's OEM. Otherwise it won't be marked in the title, and on the product page it will say aftermarket next to "Condition". So no worries if you want to shop with us :good:
Feel free to have a look at our YouTube page just search etradesupply, we have over 6 million views.
It's a legit OEM replacement. I bought one. I wasn't successful in installing it because I fubar'd my disassembly, but it's legit. PM me if you want to see better pictures of it or buy the one I got, lol.
Stay well away from the likes of etradesupply, I gave them many chances to send me quality replacement parts, all failed. My guess is yes they may be OEM but I would say they are 2nds or refurbished parts. AVOID!
Hello,
one thing id like to say is that replacing just the digitizer is very very difficult. Basically, its not going to happen.
I've replaced my dna screen twice, battery once and my volume flex cable/buttons once.
i bought this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Complete-HT.../370896928288?ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:C:US:3160
from gadgetfix on ebay and it was great. i already had the tools (you can pm me for more info if you need). the first screen assembly i bought was from repairsuniverse and i was not happy with the screen quality (colors were washed out due most likely to poor assembly of digitizer to lcd). The assembly is really a glass cover+digitizer+lcd and is worth it if you want to not run into problems
Not sure but their shipping is outrageous!

It is too far from OEM. I have ordered "OEM" LCD+frame assembly for HTC One X (sharp version). Yes, it arrived without scratches. But the color of screen is going to yellow. Besides that, there is a tiny gap at the bottom between LCD and frame. But the worst thing that happened - after 3 days of using, LCD started to peel off from the frame (so I had to go to the repair shop and they re-peeled it). So NO, IT IS NOT OEM...

I buy an iphone 6 lcd screen at hcqs.cc .
Are they same website?
Just take a deep consider before buy it
They sends wrong/cheap items and don't agree this.
I've ordered my cracked Lumia 920 touch screen from this site. But they sent me cheap and not oem part. i asked for exchange or money back. But they still don't agree it's wrong item.
i've ordered GRADE S+ item (it means 100% OEM and original)
but they sent GRADE R item (Not original/ similar china made)
Think twice before buy items from this site.
OEM? What a joke!
I know this is an old post. However, if I can stumble on it in 2016, I assume others could still see it in the foreseeable future and hence my comment below.
These guys advertise their so called S+ grade as *OEM*. They do have other grades that are "OEM-Compatible". Thus, S+ is definitely advertised as genuine products. Unfortunately, I received an S+ grade Samsung S4 glass-digitizer module that is *NOT* even properly assembled! A working part would have the vertical flex cable on top of the horizontal one and connect to the white connector above. Their part has the vertical cable buried under the horizontal one and connects to nowhere! The touch function as a result is not working. I doubt this is an OEM product but likely a counterfeit!
Sorry I cannot post a photo here or insert a link to an external site since I'm new. If you want to see the photo, contact me plz.
I once bought a iPhone 7 LCD Screen and Digitizer Assembly with Frame Replacement - Black - Grade S+ in Etrade Supply online shop,the phone parts looks very like the OEM and it works well... There are four grades in their shop just like Grade A,Grade R,Grade S,Grade S+. Grade S+ is 100% original manufactured,so what you buy is correct....
Bought a Nexus 5 screen in S+ grade - so apparently everything should be like an original part. Luckily I have a second Nexus with the original screen and could compare the two. Brightness levels are different with the S+ one being noticeably dimmer at full brightness and brighter at low brightness. The screen also has slightly warmer color reproduction than the original one.
I am not sure if the quality was worth the effort of buying overseas and I will try to get a Paypal refund as the product is clearly not as described.
Someone with money to spare should test how the front glass actually compares to the gorilla glass on the original screen.
EtradeSupply OEM LCD screen replacement parts
There are no original replacement parts on the aftermarket but the S+ LCD screen on etradesuply is close to OEM, it also has a high quality than others.
Grade S+ parts are those with 100% original core components like LCD, IC chip, flex, while non-core component like frame can be original or original compliant (Up to the main market trend), which are assembled by the original factories.

Guys I'm looking for a real original htc touch screen, till now I've found only clones. I tried them 2 times, and differently than the original one, when I dropped the phone with the clones 2 times on 2 I immediately broke the touch screen. Instead when I dropped the phone with the original one I had no problem at all.
The clones just suck...
Do you know where to find the real original touch screen?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GENUINE-HTC-T...UK_Mobiles_Accessories_RL&hash=item2eb0678ba3
supplied me genuine lcds & digitizers for a variaty of HTC & Nokia devices.
Big part with final result on Diamond 2 is correct bonding of digitizer, non solid setting adhesive should be used & full bonding around the edges must be achieved.
Solid setting adhesives transfer shock without any absorbtion & non bonded areas flex & resonate causing potential fracture points.
Of course ****e quality chinese copy parts play a big roll in problem repairs too ...
Actually I bought exactly the new touch screen from that seller. And that touch screen wasn't the original though.
You can see that it's not an original one looking at the zoom bar. It's shorter that the origial one. The genuine one gose from edge to edge, instead the clone one is smaller. And the overall colour is different. I can post pictures of both original one and clone one.
Anyway what do you mean by solid setting adeseive??
Just put in a PayPal claim for non delivery & get your money back. recently got LCD & digitixer for 2 Diamond repairs, both parts were original. If sent you copies do them over, get your money back & give them some nasty feed back.
No hard solid adhesives should be used, needs to be soft rubber type glue to help absorb & stop shock loads transfering to digitizer.
Ok here is a picture where you can see the difference between the original and the one bought from that seller. Is yours similar to the one marked original or to the one marked clone?
http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/2456/touchscreen.jpg
One marked original, markings are light & the - & + icons run almost in-line with edges of screen.
Also back lighting bleeds through too much on cheap copy digitizers.
They supplied you a non genuine part so screw them over big time.
I live in Asia & by my digitizers & LCDs from UK as all our local parts suppliers sell china spare parts of supposing different quality pending on how much you are willing to pay ! Quality of almost all chinese digitizers & LCDs are simply ****e & not worth the postage stamp & do nothing but pollute the environment with manufacturing waste & a product that is waste as soon as removed from packaging.
Sorry to thread hi-jack but iv'e been looking for this answer everywhere and everywhere says what type of adhesive to use but no one gives a specific make-brand or link to buy any .
I was looking at buying a full case from the same seller as my phones current case is looking a little worn out and although the digitizer is perfect and is falling out i dare say when i try to get it off it will smash into a million little pieces so i'll order the full set. But my question remains what is the best type of glue to use who makes it and where can i get it from?
Oh and would be handy to hear if you have any tips or experiences using it.
Thanks
Digitizers, don't buy here, go there!
I too ordered 2 digitizers from E-cell; both were fakes!! They won't go into any discussion with me, they just told me to send them back. They KNOW that is crap there selling and advertise it as genuine...
BE AWARE DON'T BUY THERE, IT IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.

Digitizer glued to LCD?
I contacted a repair man and told me it's a waste of time buying replacement digitizer as the orginal is stuck onto the LCD and you risk damaging the LCD if you attempt to remove it.
Is this true or is he scaring me off in doing the job myself.
Also I read that you need adhesive tape is this true?
If refering to Diamond2, LCD is not bonded any any way to digitizer.
Digitizer is bonded to alloy front chassis only.
This is one of the easiest HTC models to strip & repair, LCD or digitizer can be fitted individually no question.
If you take care with disembly & be gentle with all ribbons it will be simple.
some common sense & previous experience comes in handy de-bonding & rebonding digitizer but its far from scary.
Adhesive tape is not the best option but perhaps the simplest.
I used a tiger brand u30 adhesive, black in colour & sets rubbery so act as a good shock absorber. advantage of adhesive bonding is better full radius bonding resulting in a more shock & direct impact resistant digitizer.

Also if I ever needed to replace the digitizer again will it be easy to remove if it had u30 adhesive on it?.

Fortune IT hardware shop BKK. No done a second replacement yet but tested adhesive prior to using it for assembly & it should be quite easy to clean to about 90%.
Tape is the simplest but varies in adhesive strength & can result in digitizer being not flush fitting & not evenly bonded resulting in easy failure with impact loads.
Also most people who use tape end up doing second replacement.

Hi.
Almost a 1 yeard old post but can you tell me the seller ID that sent you the digitizers or any other that you used to get good quality ones?
I really need it and most I found looks very low quality items.
Thanks.
My phone was dropped earlier however only the glass is cracked, not the actual screen. Everywhere I look, they only sell them as a pair, but I remember awhile back seeing just the glass for a reasonable price.
Where can I get it now?
Thanks!
Here's a glass replacement for $12.80 (Free Shipping)... CLICK HERE
Instructional Video:
Note: This video uses a Fascinate, but the steps taken should be similar to replacing the Vibrant's screen.
Thanks so much!
No problem. Hope you get your phone back up & running.

Because that 'replacement glass' is a scam not a digitizer. It will not fit properly and will not function as a digitizer. If you look at the video, the removed digitizer has some wires on it. That allows communication w/ the motherboard. That glass is just glass. Even if you could remove the broken touch panel (digitizer) and fit the glass to the phone you would have no ability to use it.
The digitizers for all amoled Galaxy S phones are not available without the attached display panel. The replacement screen costs $95 just for the part, then add the labor and that is why it is so expensive.
If you notice, even the people who made the video (while showing the removal) don't sell the digitizer alone. Pro shops replace the whole assembly. If you can get the job done for $100 including labor, take it. It's a great price.

Not a problem. Unless you have done any repair work on these things you would not know. Most non oled display phones have the ability to replace touch screen and lcd displays individually. Unfortunately, not ours.
This scam works because most people that buy the glass never really get around to installing it, or if they do and it does not work they think they did something wrong. I have repaired a bunch of these things even if you could remove the digitizer sucessfully as shown in the DirectFix video, you can't get a replacement part. Also, this operation needs to be done in a clean room. Any dust on the amoled panel will bruise it when paired with the touch panel so a successful repair is very unlikely outside of the factory. That is why the repair parts are sold together as a unit.

You can't 'just replace the glass'. The digitizer and front glass are one and the same. They are inseparable.

What you saw was the digitizer/glass being removed from the AMOLED panel. So, as stated before, no, you can't just replace the glass.

Call me crazy but if people are buying these and not complaining they don't work. Then either they don't want to look stupid by saying they got scammed or they did replace the glass and is possible. I say it's possible but very hard since the thickness is about that of a piece of paper. I saw this on wiki for the superamoled little confusing.
Super Active-Matrix Organic Light-Emitting Diode or Super AMOLED is a display technology (variant from AMOLED) mainly for use in mobile devices such as mobile phones (see the list below for examples). One of the main differences from other display technologies is that the layer that detects touch is integrated into the screen rather than being overlaid on top.

Anyone? Is that saying the display (lcd screen) has the digitizer built in the screen itself?

They are integral but can be separated.... just not rejoined and still work. Notice that the places that show the removal videos DO NOT sell a replacement part, just the entire screen. Most of the glass that is sold as a replacement is purchased from overseas. It costs more to return it than what was spent to purchase it. They are ALL worthless. If there are not wires coming from it it can't be a digitizer. If you remove your broken digitizer and are lucky enough not to destroy you amoled panel you still have nothing to replace it with. Most if not all people who buy these things never get around to attempting the replacement, or if they do, they destroy the panel in the process so they never get the chance see that the glass does not work. They think they screwed it up instead of being ripped off. That's why you don't see negative feedback about those things.... It's the perfect (almost) scam.
If you want to replace your glass buy the entire assembly ($95.00) on eBay and at the end of the process you will have a great phone again instead of a pile of junk.... not to mention feeling like you screwed up your phone.
Well what I'm going to do is wait for my brother to go to Verizon then take his vibrant and use his screen and mess with mine. Though I need to buff out the scratches. If by some miracle I do make it work I will post here. I hate when people find a way to fix something that some of us are trying to figure out and never report back how or just say "I fixed it was simple." WTF WAS IT! had to deal with that with my plasma which I finally did find one thread and fix it.
Sent from my Vibrant using xda premium, running ICS Passion v10.6 OH YEAH!
Digitizer and glass are factory glued together under high temperatures impossible to separate.
Just buy the whole assembly for $90 ( i've seen them for $79 once) with free shipping and tools on ebay. I always send offers using ebay "ask a question" and sometimes they give me few $$ off. Then it is a piece of cake since you can brake off the glass and remove the whole assembly that way.
My personal Vibrant is made of all kinds of used Vibrants and screen assembly comes from Galaxy S 4G which is good replacement too if you also want to get front facing camera.
technically can be done
while i don't recommend anyone else try, I was able to separate the glass from the screen. the glass was cracked but the screen still worked so i bought just the glass thinking it would be an easy replacement. so when i came to find them glued together i used my hot-air gun to melt the glue and remove to broken pieces of glass one by one, very carefully. when putting it back together with the new glass i couldn't re-glue it but the back tray holds the screen in place well enough. there was only one side effect that i have noticed so far. the glass is a little loose since not held to the screen, and i did burn the screen a little bit with the heat gun and it now has minor discoloration. but it is possible with enough patience and a steady hand.

Anyone knows if the screens that are sold on ebay are the real AMOLED screens or just some pirate crappy LCD screens?
IF so, perhaps you have a good seller that sells me the real thing?
(Tried to search all the i9100 forums for this but couldn't come up with something)
If you get that one youll have to change over all the bits that are stuck to the old housing.
As for eBay,Id look for someone thats sold lots of them with 100% feedback and use Paypal....

I'm in the same boat, but because of water damage. The right side of my screen doesn't respond to touch. Soon as I sell my car I can replace the screen.
I will likely be getting mine from a local retailer though. Will cost a few more bucks but I'm paying for the certainty of getting the right component the first time.
And the requirement of reassembling the phone isn't a problem for me

Why is it wrong forum and why no? I guess it's right forum but wrong section though (a question should be posted in q&a). In my opinion the screens may be replaceable as they are dimensionally the same. If I'm wrong then please direct me to a source of your information.

I've replaced a few Galaxy S3 screens lately.
The answer is YES, all Galaxy S3 front glass digitizer and lcd assemblies are interchangeable between all US carriers and international versions.
They are all the same international GT-I9300 part number, I opened up a Verizon GS3 today and part of the flex cable that goes to bottom two capacitive touch sensors even say GT-I9300 on it.

Oh and one more thing to add. Do not get fooled into buying those "glass only" front panel replacement kits on ebay for $20-$30. You'll just end up with a nice conversation piece on how you got scammed out of $20-30. I do not even know why they sell those for, they even include these cheap ass tools making it look more legit, like there is somehow a way to actually replace it. It's a full on scam if you ask me. I feel sorry for the poor saps who pick up broken glass S3's on ebay for $350-400 thinking it will only cost them $30 bucks to replace the screen and they'll have a like new S3. Suckers....
It is 100 percent impossible to replace just the front glass panel on the Galaxy S3. The glass panel is fused entirely to the LCD, and the whole LCD is glued to the frame. There is no way to "separate" the glass from the LCD without destroying both.
Bottom line, you need to purchase the LCD and Glass Digitizer as a complete assembly, around $200. To make life easier, you should buy it with the frame also, around $220-240 so you won't have to curse and ***** when you try to pull your old LCD and digitzer from your old frame,broken piece by piece.

Screen is AMS480GY01. So it's the exact same one as the GT-I9300 and any other US carrier (TMO,ATT,Verizon).
LIKE I SAID BEFORE.....All GS3's Screens/LCDs are interchangeable between all versions of the GS3.
Out of curiosity, what makes you think the Sprint version is so different than any other S3 version which would warrant a completely different screen/samoled assembly?
It's obvious you have never repaired the screen on a Galaxy S3 yet you're challenging a senior level technician who repair these things everyday @ a logic board component level. Our repair levels go way deeper into these units, way beyond what Samsung authorized warranty service centers even have capabilities to do.
Yes. You can seperate and change just the glass.
It is 100% possible and in fact not all that difficult to replace just the gorilla glass on the GS3. I have done it three times. If you heat the glass and pry it up with a feeler guage, it will begin to seperate. Once you get it going it will come off quite easily and leave the LCD behind. Here is the toughest part. Now you need to get the LCD/digitizer portion off the frame without snapping it. Turn the frame to the pack and heat it with a heat gun. Now get a long feeler guage under one corner and push it straight to the bottom. Be careful not to go too far and damage the bottom/ribbon portion of the LCD. Now just continue that process across the back of the LCD like a slim jim till its free. Now all you need is a gorilla glass with adhesive. Any reputable parts supplier can get them on request and they come with the "Optically Clear" adhesive already applied. Just spray a generous application of alcohol on the front of the cleaned LCD/Digitizer panel, peal the paper cover off the back side of the glass and carefully apply it to the LCD. You have about 10 seconds to play and align the LCD with all the alcohol on it before it will start to get sticky.

Oh and one more thing to add. Do not get fooled into buying those "glass only" front panel replacement kits on ebay for $20-$30. You'll just end up with a nice conversation piece on how you got scammed out of $20-30. I do not even know why they sell those for, they even include these cheap ass tools making it look more legit, like there is somehow a way to actually replace it. It's a full on scam if you ask me. I feel sorry for the poor saps who pick up broken glass S3's on ebay for $350-400 thinking it will only cost them $30 bucks to replace the screen and they'll have a like new S3. Suckers....
It is 100 percent impossible to replace just the front glass panel on the Galaxy S3. The glass panel is fused entirely to the LCD, and the whole LCD is glued to the frame. There is no way to "separate" the glass from the LCD without destroying both.
Bottom line, you need to purchase the LCD and Glass Digitizer as a complete assembly, around $200. To make life easier, you should buy it with the frame also, around $220-240 so you won't have to curse and ***** when you try to pull your old LCD and digitzer from your old frame,broken piece by piece.

I'm a technician at a major repair facility that does mostly work on Samsung and Apple products. Ironic right?
I've replaced a few Galaxy S3 screens lately.
The answer is YES, all Galaxy S3 front glass digitizer and lcd assemblies are interchangeable between all US carriers and international versions.
They are all the same international GT-I9300 part number, I opened up a Verizon GS3 today and part of the flex cable that goes to bottom two capacitive touch sensors even say GT-I9300 on it.

Does this include the screen that cones with the bezel or just the screen and digitizer by itself? Also, do you know if you can change the backing of the sprint lcd/bezel and replace it with a gsm backing (the one that has the sim card opening)? Thanks for your time.

What a douch

In short, unless you ready to use heat gun and separate screen (it is not lcd) from assembly, possibly damaging it or deal with the dust trapped under, or working in dust proof facility, answer is no.
The front frame assembly is 100 percent NOT compatible between international and nam versions due to different chip sets and motherboard which is indented on magnesium frame to sit properly.

man, I wish I saw this sooner. I did just this and screwed the whole thing up! now I am going to have to pay the big bucks to get it fixed.
any advice on WHERE to send it? someone suggested mobiletechsvideo.com but was wondering if you knew of any other?
thanks.
One hour ago, I accidentally broke my moto e gorilla glass! The touch is working fine, but the glass is shattered, my phone is already out of warranty and is rooted! Is there any way to change the gorilla glass? How much it will cost me just to change the front panel? I saw the front panel on this site > https://www.parts4repair.com/front-glass-for-motorola-moto-e-xt1021-black/ is it good? Should I repair it from local shop or give it to service centre? I know they cost 2500+ for replacement of glass and display, but I have only my front glass broken, the display digitizer is working fine! Should I buy the above glass and fix it on my own? I think I can fix it as I'm a electronics engineering student lol! Or should I give it service centre, I really don't wanna pay 2500+ for my 2 year old 7,000rs phone!

Do not buy just the glass. I am 100% experienced regarding this thing. I have replaced my display assembly two times. I know very well about the structure of the display assembly. Firstly the glass, digitizer and the LCD are BONDED together. If you attempt separating them, you'll literally f**k up the LCD and digitizer. Even local shops won't be able to do it. It can only be done in the factory using automated machines which actually manufacture the display assembly.
Service center: NO. Don't go there. They will charge you nearly the price of a new phone!
Now you have two options. Either buy the display assembly (glass+digitizer+LCD) from here: http://www.ebay.in/itm/LCD-Display-...T1022-Black-/252415179667?hash=item3ac51dfb93
or
Buy the display assembly along with the side frame from here: http://www.ebay.in/itm/LCD-Display-...T1022-Black-/252415182326?hash=item3ac51e05f6
The display assembly is glued to the sideframe with a super strong adhesive. You can't separate the display from the frame without using a heat gun to melt the glue. If you do this, you'll also melt the sideframe and chrome grills partially, which will further f**k up the look of the phone. This is a really tough job so I would say don't do this or get this done (I already have got this done the first time I had to get a new display). Then you will have to fix the new display with special adhesive or double sided tape which is a very unclean job.
Now you are left with the option to buy display assembly along with frame. This is your best bet but the costliest option. You get the entire front half of your phone which is easy to replace. No need of gluing or ungluing anything. Just unscrew and screw in the new front half of the phone.
The links I gave above are from a highly trusted seller which sells 100% original product. I bought from them. They are selling 100% genuine product and the product I received is same as original.
When I had got the display replaced the 1st time, I got it done from a local shop (it was without frame) and the display was fine but not really as good as original and it was not gorilla glass. I used to miss the original so much.
Then 2nd time I bought from this seller, finally got back the original moto display! So buy without giving a second thought. Trust me.
I got it on 20% discount but that promotion has ended. You can use code EBAYHIKE06 for 6% discount.
