[Q] Would Sprint GNex Screen work on GSM GNex? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I recently dropped by GNex and the screen got shattered. :/
I've been looking for a replacement screen online and found that replacement screens for this phone are relatively expensive. But then I found a part labelled as a replacement screen for the Sprint Galaxy Nexus. I was wondering if this part would work with my unlocked GSM Galaxy Nexus? Would it be compatible?

In theory it will fit, but no idea if it works.

There shouldn't be a difference right? I mean isn't the sprint version supposed to be the same except for the radio?

Don't think it will fit..
Someone went ahead despite the uncertainty, he have not report back yet..

I guess I will go ahead without certainty too...

im pretty sure it doesnt. i believe the cable is in a different spot.

[Q] Will a Sprint LCD/Digitizer work on a T-Mobile Galaxy S3?

Just like the title says.....I am looking at a replacement LCD for my wife's tmobile galaxy phone but I only find the Sprint one cheap. Are these interchangeable?

my cousin has the sprint one and they look 100 percent identical, form factor wise. Only question is the plug inside the device at the same spot on both devices? Try and look at a break down /disassembly of bothers variants to see what's inside

Well i'm fairly certain the LCD itself is interchangeable, the board is not. Switching the cases from a T-mobile to Sprint will not work, as the boards are constructed slightly differently on the top and bottom. the T-Mobile will not fit correctly in the back of the Sprint case, I (sadly) know from experience. :/

Sprint Replacement Display for Verizon Galaxy Nexus

So I recently cracked my Verizon Galaxy Nexus Display, and it no longer turns on. I found a replacement display for the i515 sprint version that includes the back display frame. My question is whether or not this sprint display will be compatible with my Verizon nexus. Here is a picture:

Yes. It will work just fine.
Keep in mind that the i515 is the VZW Nexus. The Sprint Nexus is something else.

Awesome thanks! Yeah I knew that i515 was the Verizon version, but I never knew that the sprint was actually the L700. Thanks again!

The more I look, the less I am sure. Take a look at this picture, the parts seem different. Are you sure?

they didnt say its working or not..... so plz anyone tell me can i use att, sprint, verizon GS3 screen on tmobile SG3
They are all the same, just the screen though not the body frame. The processor placement is different on international version.

well...
I think you have to get the screen and the body housing together, same thing happened to me but on my international version.I tried to just get the screen and bezel, but I was told I had to get the housing as well. I ended up just getting it repaired somewhere for like $230.00 still cheaper than buying from amazon. Good luck!
You had a cover on it just for reference

[Q] replacement housing for T989D

Hey guys, long time lurker here, love this forum. I have a question to which I can't seem to get a definitive answer to, figured this would be the place to find the answer I'm looking for. I just purchased a second hand T989D really cheap. The housing is really beat up, so I figured I would buy a new housing (front, back and battery cover). I looked everywhere, but could only find replacement housing for T989 model (T-Mobile version). Are there any differences between the two models (aside from holding volume rocker during boot)???
Thx
To my knowledge, the hardware (incl. housing) is identical. I have a T989D, but haven't actually seen or held a T989 yet. I'm sure it would be much easier to find parts that will be labelled as being for the T-Mobile version - Telus and Koodo just don't have the client base to make a difference. I would expect that anything sold for a T989 would work on the T989D. Would Samsung ever consider making a phone that was only for the Canadian market?? Population-wise, we're just another state...almost as big as California.
They do have a Canadian only S2...bell only actually. The i757m. Frigging nightmare! LOL. My wife bought it without me looking into it. Literally has 2 current roms and not even its own forum section. Lol

Yeesh! Actually sounds a little like dealing with the Ace II X situation that a few carriers offer. I guess I should have thought about that one before I wrote the last part of my post. I guess manufacturing of these devices really is down to an art for Samsung - they don't even have to sell that many of them to make worth their while.

Swapping motherboards

so my first S3 LCD screen cracked and i went out and bought a used S3 off CL (i even called sprint and they said it had a clean ESN) i get home to activate it and then won't because the guy called and reported it lost.well what i am wondering is can i just remove the motherboard from my old s3 with the cracked screen and swap it with the bad ESN phone? would i have to also swap out the radio as well or just the motherboard?

Yup it should work fine. I have done it before with a few phones including a s3. Just Google "taking apart a s3" and you'll find video guides on it.
It may seem difficult but it really is a easy thing to do.
