Turn in a insurance claim with sprint or buy a new screen off eBay make sure its a real Samsung one and replace it. Its very easy lots of videos showing you how.

After month of using Ace I found bad pixel on my screen
What's even worst is that it's in the middle of the screen and I can see it all the time. Did install Dead Pixel Detect to confirm this and unfortunately it is there.
Does anyone know if repair center will give me new one or at least change the screen on this one?
It depense of your warranty... But for me, I know that they will give me a new one if I have this problem.

I'll contact my warranty service and ask them about it, but I'm worried that they might want to change the screen and I don't want that.
After they changed screen and digitizer in my i900(I had white dot from overheating and poor digitizer - common problems with i900) it had specks of dust between the screen and the touch layer.
Hopefully they will give me new one. I'll keep you posted on my situation, maybe it'll be helpful to some
I just got the phone this morning and I had it in my pocket, I have touched the wall by mistake and I heard a "crack" sound... yes, it was the screen of my brand new phone. The Galaxy S3 is very fragile, I still have my (1 year old) Galaxy S2 and that one survived to many accidents. This one I would not recommend... the screen is too fragile... now back to the subject, does anyone know any good service near London or a site were I can buy a new screen?
Thank you!
Can't answer your question about service but I know what you mean about the S2 screen. Months ago I jumped on my S2's screen three times in a row really hard because I was peed of with it and it never cracked. Wish they stayed with the original glass on S3 as S2.
its the size of the screen that makes it weaker... all the big screen phones are much easier to break.. the s2 was a strong phone but stretching to the 4.8 screen on the s3 has made it weaker
There is 2 places in wimbledon that will do it . You can walk in and wait while it's done . But you'll have to make sure they have what you need in ...
Giving it some beans on my blue s3

Thank you!
Hi,
as it says in the title my galaxy tab p7510 wifi has developed the oil slick problem just after its warranty has expired. Has anybody fixed this problem themselves? What would need replacing if I do it myself the screen, digitizer or both? Thanks for any help.

Well, first of all, not trying to sound like a Samsung rep or anything, but I've heard all galaxy tabs have warranty through August because you can register to get an extra three months of warranty, so you can send it back to get the newer screen (which is what I did). I don't think there is a permanent solution, the refrigerator fix works temporarily.

is the phone rooted and if so, is it a custom rom?
How much of it isn't working? And is it just unresponsive or is the display out as well?

So is it just a strip of the screen?
If you really really wanna be able to get it unlocked, Download the correct version of clockwork mod for our phone one that's not touch, has to use the volume rockers and fresh install the rom, Or as a matter of fact, Just boot into whatever recovery you have and clear data/factoryreset, that'll get rid of your lock pin
Hello from me too!
I have a strip on my touch screen that doesn't work. It's right where the Search button and Install on Play Store is and Clear on the Phone notifications, too.
It had the stock rom, I have replaced the screen with the digitizer when it fell down. It worked after that. I had to unscrew the phone one more time because my LCD was touching the screen and the phone had gone mad. After that, and a couple of days later, I noticed that the strip didn't work anymore. Today I finally flashed a new rom (King Cobra 3d) and nothing's changed so I figured it might be a hardware problem...
What's your opinion?
Thank you!
Common Hardware Problems on evo3D
Its the hardware. and your carrier should change it at no cost. (Sprint)

ive had the top bar just under my notification bar non working for a few months now, and its starting to pi$$ me off
I've replaced my digitizer twice myself. I got a cheaper one the first time, and figure that's what I get for trying to go on the cheap. (I was out of warranty). Sorry to say it but it could be that again.

I think I don't have a warranty because I've changed it myself. It's my fault...
I think I'll buy a new one... I unscrewed it a while ago so I could see if sth had been misplaced or if the digitizer had scratches or sth like that.
I saw that the ribbon's top had been ripped off right where it bends on top of the LCD... Don't know if that's the problem...
p.s. I live in Greece. My carrier is Cosmote. We don't have Sprint here...
Yep, if the ribbon cable is ripped, that would be your problem. Don't go too cheap on your replacement. Good luck!

I wonder why is there only one part of the touch that doesn't work if the ribbon is like that, in the bending spot...
thank you! i'll try it as soon as i can and i'll get back!
If i buy a new one from Amazon will it be allright? It costs around 10 pounds... The other one that i've changed and now it has a problem i've bought it for 60 euros from a local store here in Greece...

The last one I got from Amazon is the one I'm using now (about a month old), and spent $20 US on it, which was NOT the cheapest of them. Not knowing the exchange rate right off hand, would venture to say the one you're speaking of is not a "cheap" one. So go for it. Just take your time replacing it and be careful with ALL the ribbon cables. Good luck!
Hey guys I'm a noob, I've been thinking about it for a long time, since the note 2 uses a Wacom digitizer would it be possible to mod the Wacom digitizer to replace the normal digitizer on the gs3??
Should be fairly simple
haha, genius
I know you guys are mocking me, but seriously it does use a wacom digitizer, which is why the pen won't work on any phone except for the note 2, it should be possible to mod the digitizer and plug it in to the motherboard of the s3 im willing to try this on my s3 if someone can get me going in the right direction

I don't think anyone is going to waste time trying to figure this out when the screen sizes are completely different.....let's face it, if you want a note instead of an s3 wouldn't it just be wiser to buy one in first place? You're never going to get a working phone out of it for the exact reason I illustrated in first place

if someone does commercially sell a modded version of the s3 screen, it would atleast cost 320$ + , which is alot just for a small feature as per me, but maybe your opinion varies.
May the Force be with you,
