Hi, I have replaced screen on galaxy a70, with original from another phone, completelly functional screen, exact same, but i can't add fingerprint, i can add it to like 20% without any problem, but after that it says fingerprint cannot be recognized. I have tried with piece of protective glass over the screen and that works perfectlly. One thing that i noticed is that the phone before screen replacement had a protective glass, but phone from I picked the screen didn't. Is the sensor focused little bit more far due to that glass? I did factory reset but that did not helped.

Hello.
Today my Desire slipped off the cover, and fell onto concrete floor.
Result - Cracked screen, scratches on the front panel. The back panel is intact.
Touchscreen seems to be working fine in every part of the display, and AMOLED itself seems to be OK - cant see any damage through the broken glass.
I guess that it's the protective glass broken, not the screen itself?
The main impact was on the corner.
So a question - could somebody suggest, where could I buy front panel replacement, with the protective glass?
I would like to hear any suggestions.
Thanks.
Search ebay for "Digitizer HTC Desire"

You mean, that it's not the protective screen, but the digitizer?
Well, I'm no expert on this...
But since the Desire has a capacitive touchscreen panel, I assumed this must be the top layer....
Okay, today i've recieved my new toucscreen.
Installed, and everything seems to work fine, but.
It is kinda bugged - sometimes it changes screens spontaneously, in some places it dont respond on my touch.
I dont know what to do now, any suggestions?
I bought a new oem touch screen digitizer from dealextreme to replace my old shattered one but it is not recognizing inputs, except when I try to pull down the notification bar with phone locked (CM10 Jelly Bean - Quarkx).
This digitizer comes with a film on both sides of the glass and I removed both. I know that removing the outer film doesn't acctualy intefere but, does removing the inner film do since it is close to the LCD screen?

It is not the problem, I turned the phone on with mother board, LCD screen and touch screen digitizer all spread (cables connected of course) and it's still not working. I think my new touch screen digitizer is broken

I bought my digitizer from repairs universe. I also took off both films because the inner one had an air bubble. I broke mine because my proximity sensor doesn't work and i tried to remove a bit of the thick plastic which was covering the opening. now the very top right corner of the screen doesn't register any touches. I'm not sure what's wrong with yours but perhaps try a different rom. Or try disconnecting it again and put it back.

I tried both CM9 and CM10 and none is working, and I tried disconnecting and reconnecting countless times with no luck. I'll try to send it to customer service to fix it. Hope it is not too expensive.
Thanks!
Taking advantage of this topic, is there any way to configure 'automatically answer calls' without using the touch? CM7.1-11.
Bought this for my wife's phone. Pretty unhappy with it. First off there was some glue in the middle of the glass when i was about to apply it to the phone. So i already had to wipe this off otherwise there would have been a glaring mark on the screen. I used some glass cleaner and had to scrub pretty hard with a microfiber cloth to get it off. Once I dealt with that the screen itself fit pretty well.
But we shortly after we noticed that there was a major problem with the proximity sensor. You could see a faint red glow always on and the phone would not detect how far our heads were from the screen. Using a third party app the sensor would always read 0.0 cm. Once I removed it, everything was operating fine again. Lastly, we also noticed that the touch sensitivity was decreased while using the screen which was extremely annoying. Some screen swipes or taps just didn't register with the phone.
Overall, I would not recommend this product.
Currently, I'm still trying to email them about replacing it with a normal skin.
Hi, guys I have a question about the galaxy note 5 N920A. Is the display or should I say the digitizer screen is a two separate part?
My galaxy note 5 has a crack above and on top of the home button. the display and touch LCD works just fine without any kind of problems whatsoever. the only problem is that the crack seems to be spreading just like a crack windshield, which would soon look like a spider web. I would like to replace the crack plastic without changing the whole display screen:fingers-crossed:
I have check online for the display and to my dismayed the price is something I would like to ventured into. I also did further research and found quite a few which is describe as a panel screen for the display for only $10. So I am kind of confuse could this be also consider to be a tamper glass protector? Need advice please before I buy something that I might regret later on, since I am no novice with phone parts.
Thank you.

Hopefully you got your answer as its been a couple years since you asked, in case you didn't or anyone else thats curious about this, I recently replaced the screen on a Note 5, so have a bit of experience with it.
First to answer your question, a LCD screen and a tempered glass screen protector are 2 very different things. An screen is standard on every phone and is generally what you'd replace when your screen is cracked. On the other hand, a tempered glass screen protector is something you'd get and apply onto your phone's screen to protect it from hard drops onto the cement. They're quite effective depending on various factors but I definitely recommend them, if your screen is flat like the Note 5. Rounded edges screens like the S6 Edge thru S9, though tempered glass are available, reviews show they aren't nearly as effective, due to the "curved" wrap around edges, unfortunately.. Tempered glass screens have saved me a few times, after dropping my device, only the glass screen protector cracked, the phones LCD screen was undamaged. Tore off the cracked glass, $15 later, had a new on there. Small investment for the protection it gives, doubt a screen replacement will ever be around $15-20..
BTW, the Note 5s LCD screen is glass (Gorilla Glass 3, I think?) not plastic, as you mentioned..
Onto the bigger question, if you Google search "Note 5 teardown" you'll find quite a few tutorials w/ pics that breakdown the process, towards the end of them, after they've separated the LCD, you'll notice on back of it, there's a few small components, still attached. All of the teardowns, only mention the remaining removal difficulty is 5/5, the adhesive holding the screen much stronger than the LCD glass itself, though none have attempted the work..
Searching for LCD's on eBay, there's many listings of only the clear LCD glass, nothing else on back of it, which leads me to believe it is possible to do, but whoever attempts this may be the first and only one to have documented it.
If the pro's are semi-sketched from trying it, then, I'll trust their opinion, when replacing a friends Note 5 screen, we found a parts only device and did the swap, complete with all the little components on back.
I still have the rest of the parts, but it had water damage, so logic board is fried.
If anyone needs any other parts, PM me.
Does anyone know the brand of the original screen protector film of IQOO 9 pro? The original film protector that came with the phone is starting to degrade and eventually I need to replace it.

I got these a few days ago from ebay. Delivered in Greece quite fast. 3 pieces for about 10 euros. Pretty much identical to the original one, easy to apply if you are careful. The first of the three was damaged as a part of my "learning to apply" curve but the second one I nailed it. Still one spare.

What is the screen like without the factory installed protective film? I find it makes the screen look a bit dull and hazy in bright lighting conditions and it picks up every bit of dust and fingerprint marks. I took the factory installed protective film off my Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, (I keep it in a wallet case so it has lots of protection) and it made the screen come alive - smooth and resistant to fingerprints, smudges, lint, etc. I'm thinking about doing that on the Vivo as well but wondered if anyone else had done so.
Yes it is

Yes it'more alive and smooth etc but with 2 kids around couldn't take the risk more than 3-4 days. Even the tiniest scratch or mark would seriously affect the reselling price.
Cautionary Note:
I removed the factory installed protective film and thought the appearance and feel of the screen was much improved. However when I rebooted my phone it didn't want to unlock using my fingerprints. I tried three or four times before I was successful. It had always unlocked instantly with a quick touch of my fingerprint before removing the protective film. So I thought: 'well, I'll just enroll a new fingerprint since the screen is now more sensitive', but when I tried to add a new fingerprint it wouldn't let me. I keep getting a message saying: 'apply official Vivo protective film to add fingerprint'. Ironically I can unlock my phone with facial recognition and Google Pay still works without the need to confirm by fingerprint and my banking app (which does require a fingerprint to unlock) unlocks instantly with my stored original fingerprint. So I disabled face unlocking and tried again to unlock with my stored original fingerprint and again it took four attempts. I'm glad I didn't delete the original stored fingerprint as I apparently can't add a fingerprint now without the original protective film.

I had no protective film for about 4-5 days and didn't face any similar problems. I think that's the only con about Chinese phones : Seems that somehow they don't have a "quality consistency" for all their devices. Seems that it's more likely to come across with a device that has a "problem" than with other manufacturers. For example , for Samsung you will read about "poor Exynos performance" or "overheating devices with SN 888" etc but with Chinese manufacturers you will read about 15 different problems from 15 different users, each of them having just one or two that other users don't have and not having the rest that other users complain about. I mean the "apply official Vivo protective film to add fingerprint" message is not due to a hardware or OS identified problem that "IQOO 9 PRO has and we know it", otherwise I should have had the same message. Seems that more or less Chinese phones have their own "personality" and this imho has to do with quality controls. (Just my 5 cents).
