Broken Back Glass replacement - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6

Unfortunately my back glass broke and I was wondering if any one knows of a supplier that sells them or if you know how much Sprint would charge me. I don't have insurance :thumbdown:

Do you know how much it would cost if I did have insurance?

200, they would just send you out a refurbished replacement

You can get the back pieces from Amazon they're reasonably priced and there are tutorials on YouTube on how to replace it.

I bought custom ones for 3 or 4 bucks. Since its already broke use a hair dryer to heat it up. Cant break it any worse. I was in this same situation they also make plastic ones. They scratch easier of coarse but eliminate they breaking again. This is a simple fix no need for insuarances or anything like that

As another poster posted does not take two hours i had completly tore my device down and back together in roughly 30 min but i was doin circut board repairs. I normlly wont go against other posters but like i said this is a re easy device to tear down specialy since ure back glass is already busted.

OK, You're an ass. This is obviously a price mistake and when they see people ordering 20-30 at a time there will be ZERO chance it will go through. It is probably meant to be a 1cent with purchase of xxxxx.

I followed the link provided, and it worked! I wasn't able to adjust the number of items in my cart, though. It only let me buy one headset (wanted to buy for the wife and kids too - early Christmas shopping), but one is better than none, I suppose.
Just bought one. Can't change quantity though. Purchased from cell phone. thanks for the heads up!

I've been using the Zagg Sparq for the past year and a half and it works great. Last year's model (ehich is the one I'm using) works very well. Actually starting Monday, there all 50% off. Take a looks at zagg.com. Get a warranty as well. Sent mine back after 1 year about a month ago. They sent a brand new one at no charge.

Cracked screen!!! DIY screen replacement?

Long story short, HTC won't fix my screen through their advantage program so now I have to fix it myself.
Has anyone here tried to replace the screen before? If so, any pointers?
Why do you have to fix it your self? There are many reputable 3rd party repair centers out there.
is that not an option for you?
IFixit.com has done a teardown..

Yeah I saw that. If just the glass is broken and the lcd display itself still works, do I only buy the digitizer?
watch a tear down video.
Almost all phones in the last few years have the LCD glued to the glass. Its possible to remove the two but it requires lots of work and additional tools.
Quick answer is no, dont buy just the digitizer, you need to order it with Glass/LCD.
Unless your familiar with working with small electronics dont do it your self.
---------- Post added at 04:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:32 PM ----------
Out of curiosity, why did HTC deny your claim thru the advantage program? also you can still send it to them for repair and pay for it. Its not like they completely rejected your repair due to water damage or something..
The screen on the M8 is not really "user replaceable" - period. While you can certainly check out iFixit, the conclusion is - nope, not replaceable. Just getting to the battery is an epic adventure. Unless you have a lot of specialized tools, patience, and a lot of luck, I would strongly suggest you just shell out the cash and get it repaired professionally.

Got it, that makes sense.
I needed to show them a proof of purchase because there was a problem with my serial number and imei matching up, since the phone was bought on CL there's no way to prove the purchase. They told me I could get it fixed for a charge but they wanted ~$180

Straight Talk S3 Broken Screen

My Grandson was given an S3 968c and the first day he broke the screen taking it out of the case that would have protected it, So I've been looking at screen replacements' and they seem to be as much as the phone was new , we got it for $99.00 and the replacements are about $66.00 bucks I've looked around and can buy a verizen for a lot cheaper but I don't know if it will work.I'm not sure I think it's carried on verizen it's using straight talk as the carrier. Has anyone run in to this issue and what screen's can be used... Thank's
Did you crack the LCD or is it just the digitizer?

Sorry I'm not getting notifications when I get a replies , no it's still good I've been reading around and I guess this a Verizon phone someone said you could remove the ST sticker under battery and it supposedly has a Verizon sticker for I forgot the model Think it's SCH-i535 but I'm not sure what to buy to fix this.

So unless I am mistaken, your LCD is still intact. All you need to repair is the Lens Glass. They come in kits and tend to be universal and cost anywhere between $5 and $10 for the repair kit. As Example:

There are many sources for these kits.

About to catch fire?

So I have 2 units of the Note 7. One is working perfectly. The 2nd unit not so much. Looks like something is seriously wrong with the battery of this device. Has anyone else faced this? I cant return my Note 7 because I got it from UAE and I donnt live there. Is this what happens before it catches fire? Video here
Oh man that does look serious, does it get hot?

who got the faulty one u or wife? haha. And same here, im still waiting for mine. atleast it wont be faulty.
To be fair, anyone can recreate this by making a video with an atrocious sound, have 2 green lines on each side, and then keep the backlit buttons on.
That video shows nothing in regards to a faulty battery.
ISIS will now start buying the note 7 and use them as grenades so that they can smuggle them in commercial airlines

Should make a video of how it reacts when you unplug?
Wow wait a minute, you aren't even charging.

can you tell me how to make 2 green lines appear on each side?
it looks like the phone motherboard/circuit board is burning to cause that.
Wow. This brings to mind another SERIOUS problem I have just remembered.
How many of us have had "problems" with any of our Phones in the past and they have locked up and wouldn't shut down even with the Power Button with the ONLY option was to remove the Battery??
I have certainly experienced this scenario a few times over the years with my Note 4 and 2 and S2.
In fact, I set up a new thread regarding this. Needs to be discussed.
my previous samsung, i think note5, cant remember which model exactly.
in the summer when i charging the phone in the car, the phone gets really hot, but it never catch fire or explode.

there are apps that make the device do this when getting notifications. looks to me like its a poorly coded app, or one meant for older edge screen device. there is even a setting in stock touchwiz for edges to light up upon notifications.
that said, the device could very well be overheated

"Set the Edge screen to light up when you receive calls or notifications while the device is turned over".
