Anyone know of a legit place to get a replacement front glass for gnex. My digitizer is fine so I don't need that. I've never done this before, just looking for someone to point me in the right direction.

can you post the pics of the phone
$17.90 for front glass, not bad. I have a surface scratch on mine that has been bugging me, might be cheap enough to be worth the trouble. Has anybody had any experience ordering from that website? Is there any instructions included on how to replace the items or is that something that you just have to find on your own?

Any luck with this? Looking to do the same with my i515 gnex, does anyone happen to know if the glass cutouts for the two versions are the same?
From what I read, its strongly recommend to replace the whole unit(screen, digitizer, and glass) because its a huge pain to get glass off if you are lucky enough to do so.

I know its tricky, but i've done it before(heat is my friend). Once you do it once it actually isn't bad especially because the nexus has the slight lip around the screen which helps you big time with positioning the glass. I'm just confused if the two glass cutouts are the same or not.
So I still have broken glass that is finally starting to fall out whilst the cracks have gotten larger, no thanks to my two year old who loves to throw toys.
Has anyone seen the glass replacement, not the digitizer, last long term?
I'm trying to hold out until October but concerned that I'm going to lose the screen entirely soon.

My phone has EXACTLY the same crack pattern!! And I know how bad it feels.
Is this some design issue with the GNex stress points?
I asked the Samsung Care Center and they asked around $185 for the replacement (glass and digitizer)
That is more than half of the phone cost. :crying:
(Edit: They said as the front glass, the digitizer and the lcd are glued together, it is impossible to get a seperate glass replacement)
Luckily I had a screen guard on so the glass pieces are not falling apart yet.
You can get the glass and ask a trustworthy maintenance guy for helping replace it.
I haven't tried yet. But might try soon. :fingers-crossed:

The glass on my T989 have had scratches for the last month. It hasn't gotten worse, but I really want to get it fixed, because its starting to really get to me. I'm weighing my options, it seems it would be too costly, and I plan on rather spending money on getting a SG3 at full retail. Should I repair this, and sell it, or sell it as is on craigs list? What would be the most cost effective way? I notice there are OEM original glass replacements on ebay for like 10-15 dollars but don't know how to replace it myself. How much would it be to get a professional to do it? What price would I be able to sell it at on craigslist just to sell it as is? I'm not sure what I should do, any suggestions would help. Theres like 6 hair thin crack lines spread in a circular pattern about 2 cm apart on the top half of the screen. Any suggestions appreciated thanks!
I have never tried it myself but I have heard that replacing the screen on most phones is not too difficult.

I dunno this one seems pretty darn hard. My Hd2 was a b**** since it needed soldering so instead of trying I just sold it
Ive been meaning to post up a tutorial but I did it for myself...it was simple but Replacing the screen on this phone for some scratches is not the best option though as its an expensive screen
Btw the screen and the digitizer are one peice... Or at least very well glued together
Isnt there some type of 'scratch filler' thing that you rub into the scratches?
Try on of these ideas

Are they scratches or cracks? Big difference.
I had a few thin, semi-deep scratches on my screen a while back. I put a dab of white, semi-gritty toothpaste on the scratches themselves, and buffed it into the scratches with a dry towel corner until all residue was gone, then repeated. Did it about 4-5 times and lines were almost entirely buffed out. Can no longer feel lines and can only see when looking extremely close for them. Phone smelled good to boot! Haha!
Cracks... that's a whole another issue.

Depending where your at I would google search repair centers and call around for the best price. If that doesn't work perhaps Craigslist? I met a really cool tech guy off there and he works on mainly iphones but knows a lot about android devices as well.

It isn't about the quality, the screen is curved in the edges so it becomes extremely weak there, one unlucky corner drop that avoids the plastic bezel and hits the screen and welcome cracks.
Now i dropped mine many times and found that the phone drops on it's back most of the time and survives, but i almost broke it when it dropped on the side, luckily it hit the bezel and there was no damage, not even a scratch/bend.
So yep.. luck.

I broke my screen also only 2 days after buying it. I took it to a cell phone repair shop and they used an n7100 screen amd also digitizer. (Because they broke my digitizer replacing the glass) 2 days after that my phone just quit working. They refused to fix it because I signed a waiver. So I took it to another shop who said it was the wrong screen that caused the problems and it totally fried my phone. Not sure if they were right or not but I ended up dishing out the $700 for a second time for another new phone. Not sure if you want to chance it.

Hello there
A few days ago I was using the public transport when my Note II fell on the ground. When my girlfriend asked if it was broken, I replied that the Note II was unbreakable. When I picked it up my screen was broken (karma hits player 1 for one million thousand trillion points). I mailed to the store I bought it from and they told me it would cost 250 euro's.
I'm wondering whether this is a normal price for a screen replacement.
Thank you for the replies!
Stores always want to rip you off! I have seen issues about screen on the galaxy s3 which obviously is different but almost the same. The glass can be bought for under $10 online and there are plenty of YouTube videos with instructions on how to do change it yourself. So to answer your question yes I think $250 is wayyyyy too much

Did you ask if they were going to change just the front glass or the whole display such as glass+ digitizer+amoled? Because if it's just the glass then it would be a major rip off! It's not that simple to just change the glass since it glued with an adhesive and you'll need to be very careful when removing it.

First of all. If the screen is scratched or broken but still works it means than the screen is not damaged. Only upper glass over screen is broken and you can buy one from ebay for 20$ and replace yourself by video tutorial on youtube. Anyway if you fail to repar it yourself you can anytime go and replace whole screen for 250 eur. But I think its worth to try to repair upper glass only if screen is still responding after damage.

Asking to those who had a scratch on the screen and didn't wanna pay 200 odd bucks to replace the LCD and Digitizer, have you bought any of those third party front outer glass available on eBay for around 20 bucks? If you have done it, does the S Pen work, or is the glass Gorilla or just standard one?
I have a scratch on mine, very tiny, but it's in the middle of the phone, that's why it's irritating me, but I will no way spend 1/3 of the phone's price to replace the LCD and Digitizer especially when I believe the LCD is not scratched as it is not deep.
Thanks in advance.
I would live with it if I were you. It is highly likely that no matter how skilled, you will end up with some imperfection that will be just as bad as the scratch. You will also void your warranty. For a small scratch it isn't worth the money or time when you can't be guaranteed of a perfect result. Also consider that the cheap eBay screens are usually not genuine and probably not even gorilla glass so will scratch up more easily leaving you worse off than you are now.
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda premium
I wouldn't suggest changing the glass for a scratch. Alternatively, you could just get a glass screen protector that covers the entire front glass; it will hide the scratch, and its glass!
However, if you do still decide to go along with changing the screen then check the link below on my signature.

Yeah, thanks. I have heard that some screen protectors do make some tiny scratches invisible, maybe it's right, protectors like Martinfield or something, don't remember the name exactly. You have any advice, brands with a link would be appreciated.
And thanks for the link on your siggy.
PS: Didn't notice that you mentioned Glass protectors! Well won't that make the screen less responsive or something? Will the S Pen work as it does normally? Honestly I don't have any idea or even heard of Glass protectors for Note 2.

Mate Wiki isn't "proof" for anything. It's the last reliable source if anything.
I think it probably has GG to be honest, because otherwise I'm not sure how it even passes the moderate scratch tests - if it's plain glass surely it should immediately scratch? And even S3's with Gorilla glass could scratch like crazy if a grain of sand gets in there.

And what's that 'so much knowing thing', are you a kid or what?

Samsung and corning already said early on they wouldn't confirm as they were under some sort of NDA agreement
Only a fool would believe a flagship device like the note 2 doesn't use "gorilla glass" or some other aluminosilicate equivalent.
Samsung fanboy? LOL I will pit my line up of devices over yours anyday
Enjoy your scratched up non aluminosilicate screen

Okay, so what about those sites? They have some agreements too?
And yes, I am fool, but I believe what I see, unlike you, who depends on flagship device and those craps.

One the attack eh? Was your knowledge challenged?
Are you the type of person who always has to be correct? If you wanted to be 100% correct in your post I suggest you read up in writing etiquette or even behavioural science . Was a little harsh and very defensive.
This thread is going south.
Needless to mention, in the absence of any type of confirmation from Corning, you are more than likely right with your assumptions.
Hope you have a great day.

I'm sorry your links prove what?
It has been widely debated. The note 2 has gorilla glass 2 as my link PROVES. You think you know so much and ask noob questions about changing a screen! :banghead:

Sigh.....xda is getting worse & worse. You're attitude sucks. Whether he is wrong or right, you need to show a little more respect....being correct, doesn't entitle you to be rude. I haven't looked at your profile, but your behaviour shows a level of immaturity that isn't helpful here.
Edit....which is a shame, because your first post was a good one.

Hmm! I would not do it by myself. Was thinking about a professional.
And I highly doubt the front glass is Gorilla.
Yeah, thanks. I have heard that some screen protectors do make some tiny scratches invisible, maybe it's right, protectors like Martinfield or something, don't remember the name exactly. You have any advice, brands with a link would be appreciated.
And thanks for the link on your siggy.
PS: Didn't notice that you mentioned Glass protectors! Well won't that make the screen less responsive or something? Will the S Pen work as it does normally? Honestly I don't have any idea or even heard of Glass protectors for Note 2.
