I've replaced a few Samsung screens. Not too bad a job if you're careful. Certainly worth getting a new one off Ebay and giving it a go.
The later ones are a bit like later gayphone screens, where the glass, digitiser and lcd are all glue together, not like the earlier type whey its one unit.
Its this type that I personally struggle with, as trying to remove smashed glass that's glue to the digitiser is quite challenging
. Or I never figured out the knack
.
You've reminded me, my stupid gayPhone needs a new battery... ...fortunately, due to crApples shinanigans with "battery optimisation" (ie, crippling performance) on tired batteries, they will do it for £25. Now a decent battery is £15 (I'll ignore the really crappy £5 from egay with tools type batts
)…. ...decisions, decisions... ...for the sake of a tenner, can I be arsed to do it. Obviously, the flip side is can I be arsed to a) go to Central Milton Keynes, b) deal with the groats at crApple.
with ref to a) and b) though, this stupid, gay, useless £3k CrapBook has the well documented keyboard issues, and as work bought it, I feel I should be able to get it sorted in works time
. And I could get the gayPhone sorted at the same time.
