Hello,
I had a working Kindle fire HD 6 with a shattered screen. I replaced the screen glass and now my digitizer doesn't seem to work anymore. It doesn't respond to touches on most of the screen and the screen jumps around with no touching all. I've double checked all of the cables and connections and they all look good and secure. I've cleaned the connectors with alcohol, cleaned the glass and digitizer, made sure the plastic film was removed from the glass before installation, made sure the ribbon cables are fully inserted, and factory reset. I've disassembled everything and put it all back multiple times. Still same digitizer issues. Anything special needed to get the digitizer working after screen glass replacement. Thanks

Hi Xperia Active owners!
Anyone of you, who has removed the factory mounted screen protector? If so, do you have any scratches in the glass?
Best regards.

And why would one do that?
For example, if the screen protector itself has scratches and doesn't look nice anymore.
Good question, I having trouble taking my factory mounted screen protector off to replace it. Any ideas?
I removed mine after the phone fell screen first from my Bike handlebars on the sharp cut-off ends of another handlebar lying on the floor. The scratches were quite severe and i was totally shocked but luckily the glass itself was perfectly fine. I did buy a replacement protector but was too lazy to put it on. Meanwhile i don't think i need one anymore. My active has had some additional falls to the ground while i was running and the screen is still perfect.
Regarding you troubles removing them, yes it sticks very well but it can be removed from the bottom where the cut-outs for the mic are.

I removed my original screen protector also, becouse of the scratches.
But seems that now I can't use touch screen under water or with wet fingers.
Before, with original screen protector, it work under water with no problem, but now the it looks like screen does not detect the touch on screen with wet fingers.
Had anyone similar problems when removed the original screen protector and replaced it with replacement.
Does anyone know where can I get the original screen protector?
I recently changed the screen on my note 2. When I put the new glass on i noticed it looked like a water mark when I pressed on the screen. The top half works fine when I touch it and the entire screen works fine with the s pen. would the LCD glue fix the problem?
I'm pretty certain it would. You need adhesive between the digitizer/lcd combo and the glass screen. That's how it is stock.
I hope so.
My friend gave me a note 2 and it has a cracked screen. I was wondering if i should replace the screen+digitizer or just the digi. The lcd still works and so does the digitizer but a cracked screen just annoys me.

yes the glass alone is I'm thinking around 30 us dollars on the web the glass is glued together to the amoled lcd touch panel and can be removed with the following tools .....hair dryer highest heat setting, plastic tweezers, I actually took the whole phone apart to avoid heat damage to the internal components. apply heat to the whole screen from the outside only. caution very hot so wear gloves now slowly and I repeat very gently with tons of patience start prying off piece by piece then clean and losen the glue with alcohol then I used a stain remover I cant think now but will get back to you on that good luck
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.
Hello all,
A few weeks ago I did a front glass replacement on my girlfriends s3. Since then the phones touch functions turn off and on at random intervals. Some days the phone will work perfectly and some days you have to firmly press the whole screen back down for touch commands to be recognized. I am thinking that when I did the repair I left a small bit of glass that is slowly pushing the glass back off the display and causing it to not work. Or that I may just need to melt the glue again and press the screen down firmer.
Has anyone had this issue after a front glass replacement?
Thanks in advance for any replies
Usual problem after glass replacement is heat damage to other components.
