Ebay for the bezel which includes the powerbutton (i bought the cheapest one and fits/works perfectly.was about 7 dollar)
What do you mean by stylus sensing pad?
There is a sensor pad or more like a film under the screen that tells the phone where the stylus is on the screen ive found them just was not sure about the button

I am working on replacing a samsung tmobile lcd screen. I bought a screen off ebay. As i got everything broke down i noticed the adhesive around the edge of the screen. Where can i find this die cut adhesive. I also need it for the flex cable light buttons at the bottom. As I removed the old screen I did not heat it hot enough. the buttons seperated and I do not want to waste a $180 lcd with bad buttons and no adhesive.
I wanna sell my phone you want that

What are you selling? Email me direct as I do not think this is where to post that. [email protected](dot)com
So I dropped my phone and it cracked. The sprint repair center said they didn't have extra screens and I had to pay to get a replacment.
So I'm going to try and fix this myself. My question is, does anyone know if there is like 2 separate screens on the epic? I'm guessing something like the gorilla screen and then the actual inner screen? Because what cracked is only the outside and mostly by the capitive buttons. Could I order a replacement screen and just fix this my self? Would it be hard to do it?

May just be easier to replace the entire top sliding section, including screen.

The glass layer and the LCD is sealed together professionally by Samsung for better display effects, so you have to replace them together. I've done the change a year ago and it cost me ~$70. I'm in China though.

How much do you think that would cost? And can you show me where to find that because I'm searching on ebay and can't find just the top screen part.

I'm going to T-Mobile and probably getting a S4 so I'm not trying to pay that much for the Epic, it's going to be my game and music phone only.
I found this,
http://www.ebay.com/itm/for-Sprint-...e_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item43ae84d53f
not sure if that's what I need though. Never mind, that's just the screen I wouldn't be able to put that on my phone. So, where can I find the whole top sliding part?
If i were you, i would get a bricked or water damaged or broken USB port epic off ebay for like $20 (i got one with broken usb for $14) and just switch out the motherboards. That is the easiest method and cheapest

Ya I've seen a few epics that were up for sale for parts and repair. Ill probably do that because the crack gets worse everyday and it started going to the top. I was first planing on just putting black electric tape on the capitive lights (that's the worst part of the crack) and just putting a screen protector over it and use the nav bar so I won't need the buttons on the bottom lol.

Friend of mine broke his screen on his note 2 and I was wondering if I bought a dummy phone and took all the guts and put it in the dummy phone will it work or tske the screen and digitizer and replace it on the broken phone with theone from the dummy phone. Does the digitizer Eben work in the dummy phones?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
By dummy phone like the one in display at cell stores that don't work? I don't think they even use real glass for the screen. If you want to replace screen, go in ebay or craigslist and look for a blacklisted or broken note 2

I just repaired mine. I bought the whole display assembly and backing plate for $200 off ebay. The only hard part was taking off the back housing. After removing all the screws and going around the inside of the chrome border with a guitar pick, there is a pastic clip at the top of the battery tray and you need to separate the housing from the speaker assembly before the housing comes off. The unnerving parts are removing the glued down ribbon cables for the vibrator motor and the power button. Use a pastic knife or the dull side of an exacto and slowly and patiently work the ribbon cables free. On a 10 scale where 10 is most difficult, I rate the job a 6 or 7.
The Youtube disassembly videos help a lot.
Doesnt Samsung charge 200 for screen fix including shipping and handling? Lolll you must like to live dangerously

Well search is down at the moment, so here goes: I have an Optimus G that finally met it's demise. My glass screen is completely shattered but the image underneath is still clear and no discoloration. Obviously it doesn't respond to touch anymore. Do I only need to purchase a digitizer to do the repair or should I get the digitizer+lcd replacement? I just need a simple clarification.
Digitizer and lcd. The lcd on a factory phone is 'glued' to the Digitizer I believe. I couldn't get the lcd off my original evo anyway

He might as well. Although I'm sure you can heat and remove the glass to attach a new glass if the LCD is still good, the price on the glass for the LGOG is a bit steep as its not just a piece of glass, its also the digitizer. A big difference from a Galaxy. I can easily get a glass for my Note at like 10-20 bucks and just glue it on and be all set. That is not the case for the Optimus G, the glass works as the digitizer which I'm assuming why it's a bit expensive.
Edit: I just looked into it some more and it definitely is a complicated task. In all the how to vids they replaced the whole thing, glass and LCD. I guess that's why it's hard to find just the glass. Most sellers sell the glass and LCD together already.
Edit # 2: I finally found just the glass for $38. It actually was 80 last night but I guess the seller dropped the price.

^^^That's what you need. However if you do attempt it be aware that there's no how to videos on separating the glass from lcd. So after heating up the phone to remove it from the housing you're more than likely going to have to reheat the screen again to begin the glass/LCD separation. Oh and you might need some LOCA adhesive and a UV light to bond the new glass in.

you need both >> however i would go for an OEM one ....
i bought a cheap one from china, the ones without the LG logo on top, and it sucks. There is like a small strip that doesnt respond to the touch, its fine because i didnt notice until i started playing with "sketchbook mobile" but still. and it you look at it at an angle through the light its not smooth and perfectly straight like the original one, AND when you tap SLIGHTLY hard .. you see that liquidy effect ... not cool! .. not annoying either .. just a heads up if you do decide to fix it>

as many of you may know the glass on the galaxy s3 l710 not sure about the other models is not drop proof I think its just a scratch resistance glass not drop resistance glass I've seen many of post and youtube videos where folks have dropped there phone including me. and get crazy quotes to replace it. so I went digging for other options. first a little over view on the hardware of the phone there is the glass, touch screen digitizer,middle chassis, components that sit on the back of the middle chassis including mother board etc. and then the back cover.
the below youtube video shows how to take phone apart, its not hard just make sure u have the right tools. (very fine phillips head screw drivers etc)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHELvmoX0NY
this video explains why its wiser to go with the replacement touch screen digitizer assembly replacement vs glass replacement if done wrong you can brake the digitizer so best bet go with the digitizer assembly replacement.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkQZHU-SRC8
now here is what I call the exciting part, I have been hearing crazy prices for the touch screen digitizer between 300 and 500 dollars which is funny to me because the phone does not cost that much so the link below is to a website that sells parts for the phone at a very low prices.
http://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale/...30&groupsort=1
I see as low as 112 bucks. I ordered from the alieexpress before some of them ship the tools you need to disassemble the phone. I well be ordering my touch screen digitizer screen for the l710 in a week or two I'll keep you posted on the switch out. I cant wait to get it done I know a couple of phone part venders in the mall who swear you need to go the route with the heat gone etc and they can do it for me for 300 dollars yea right lol
Do you know of a place to get parts for the E4GT? I have a perfectly functional E4GT but it has a broken digitizer. The outer glass itself doesn't even have a scratch

aliexpress.com
has way better prices, lowest I saw on the repairsuniverse.com for the s3 touch screen digitizer was 169.00
but your post made me do a random google search for samsung galaxy s3 touch screen digitizer and I
am seeing even lower prices on other websites. and the sellers have good ratings. Interesting.
That site is also from Hong Kong and it goes by alibaba.com I've order from here before everything came as is yes it's a bit higher but it's oem
