Yesterday my glass cracked. I have found glass and digitizer on ebay (it says its original). http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Original-...7?pt=Notebook_Komponenten&hash=item27d08b7e69
How hard is to change it? I have changed few S3 screens so I'm familiar with this kind of work...
Should I order this one or another one?

Hi,
I've just received my tablet Z and manged to scratch the screen! Is there a way to reduce scratch depth on the original screen protector (a kind of polishing). I'd like to avoid to remove the screen protector but if I have to do it, is there a good tutorial (not the one for the Xperia Z phone)? Is anybody already remove the original screen protector?
Thanks
If it's just the screen protector, what's the big deal? Buy a new one and replace or let it replace in a shop with the new one. But if it's a scratch on the digitizer itself, you can use display polish to minimize the scratch but not fully remove it. Or fully replace the digitizer but I'm afraid this will break the watertight seal.

yes it's the screen protector but I'd like to keep it (i'm not sure to find one that is as good as sony's original).

There was a discussion a few months ago in the Sony Tablet S forum about removing the tablet's factory-installed screen protector. Most everyone described themselves picking at a corner of the protector (some used a straight pin) until enough of it was lifted so it could be grabbed and then slowly peeled off. Several people said they were not going to replace the protector because the screen image looked much better without the protector. Others installed a new protector.
So, my screen is scratched.
Wondering if I can replace only the glass, because the screen is working correctly .
I have read about it, i know it is a ver y difficult fix but...
Is it possible? If it is possible, what should I do first? I have seen a vídeo where a guy replaces his Galaxy s3's glass without dissasembling it.
Thanks!
The front glass and amoled screen are one sealed unit.......bonded together with some extremely strong glue/double sided tape. It is HIGHLY UNLIKELY that they could be separated without causing damage. You *can* get JUST the front glass from eBay, but while you're on eBay, I'd look at how much you'd be charged for replacing the entire unit......you will probably need to if you attempt to remove just the glass.........
Back to 10.1 for now.....
Hello. I have had a galaxy s3 with cracked glass and tried to replace it. I have seen many videos on youtube how to replace it. Basically people on these videos heat the screen and then remove the front glass easily, because the digitizer is glued to the lcd. But when I tried to remove it it came off quite easily, but only then I noticed that the digitizer was glued not to the lcd but to the front glass, so when i tried to remove front glass I accidentally broke the digitiser connector and somehow damaged the lcd. You can see photos here:

http://i.ebayimg.com/t/Samsung-galaxy-S-III-/00/s/MTYwMFg5MDE=/z/QREAAMXQ74JTUq67/$_58.JPG (in this photo you can see that the digitizer was glued to the front glass very strongly)
I would like to ask, do you know why the digitizer could have been glued to the front glass but not to the lcd? And why the lcd could have been damaged while removing front glass??
I would really wanna know the answer myself, as I ordered one that should have reached yesterday, but as they do not work on weekends, it will be here tommorow, and I don't wanna brake my display forever, especially because mine is not that damaged.
Any ideas?
my advice don't bother with a glass replacement. I HAVE TRIED TWICE and as the op said the digitizer is glued to the front glass. this has been the case with both the original screen and two replacement lcd/digitizer/glass assemblies that i personally took apart. each time the glass was fused to the digitizer . i used a heat gun and a laser thermometer and still i failed. I was successful replacing the whole screen assembly twice . but those cost about $130 from amazon,com. These replacements may seem at first like oem but the ones i got cracked very easily. they dont use the gorilla glass and the quality is not as good. one replacement was really bad in sunlight. could not see anything. after my screen cracked a third time i got a galaxy s 5 . and started using a case and screen protector.

Well... as far as i read replacing just the glass is a bit of a hit or miss with the chance that you have to just take the glass off without killing the panel. On my smashed N7 i just replaced the screen panel and glass as one piece but i dont know how it would work with the z4 and its waterproofness.
Hey buddies, The screen of my phone got breked. Touch is working. i can use the phone. Is there anyone who knows how to replace the LCD Screen glass and where to find the glass?
https://www.amazon.com/MOTOROLA-Mot...506525321&sr=8-12&keywords=moto+g4+plus+glass for the hard replacement but cheaper, OR
https://www.amazon.com/ePartSolution_OEM-Motorola-Digitizer-Assembly-Replacement/dp/B0713SWNFJ for more expensive but easier drop-in replacement
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Yu7HpzQU2I shows how difficult it is to replace just the glass of the phone
Don't expect Gorilla Glass 3 like OEM but more like cheap glass so next drop, will break again.
