lcd screen repair samsung s10 plus free sample

3. Do not bend the cable. During installation and testing, make sure the LCD cable is not bent. Curvatures greater than 90 degrees will result in a black view.

4. If your phone has a black screen during installation, press and hold the power key and volume key at the same time. If the phone vibrates, it"s because the mainline is not installed properly. Then reinstall the product.

5. If you are not professional in maintenance, or have no experience in repairing electronic equipment, we do not recommend you to replace the screen by yourself. Take it to a repair shop for help to save you time and money. Or find the relevant installation video on the YouTube platform and follow the installation steps to install.

A cracked Samsung phone screen can be devastating, especially if you rely on your phone for business, school and your social life. Screen replacement options include cell phone repair services, insurance claims and DIY repair. Here’s a breakdown of each plus associated costs to help you decide which option is best – plus whether it’s worth fixing your phone or if you’re better off selling it broken.

Option 1: Cell phone repair services – $199 to $329 Local repair shops can often replace your Samsung screen in under an hour, so you can get your phone fixed over your lunch break. Online mail-in repair services take longer, but they can be good options if you do not have a qualified local repair shop.

Expect to pay between $199 and $329 for Samsung screen replacement, depending on your model. Some repair shops offer warranties that offer free or discounted parts and labor if your screen fails within the warranty period.

If you don’t see your model listed on a given repair company’s website, it’s a good idea to contact them to see if they offer it. Their service lists aren’t always up-to-date with the latest models. In some cases, the repair is too uncommon for them to carry parts. In others, the repair is too difficult to be profitable or the parts are so expensive it’s not worth fixing the phone.

Before you commit to a repair center, be sure to ask about the shop’s experience, credentials and part quality: some shops use OEM parts, while others use aftermarket parts.

If you have it, phone insurance might be your cheapest option. You can even get same-day screen replacement if an authorized or mobile repair center is nearby. Otherwise, you’ll need to mail your phone in for repair.

Some carrier plans allow you to request a replacement device instead of getting your phone repaired, but that option typically costs more. For example, Verizon insurance charges $29 for screen repairs but up to $249 for replacement.

Option 3: Do-it-yourself (DIY) cracked Samsung phone screen replacement – $92 to $240 You can purchase a replacement screen for your Samsung phone from several phone parts suppliers, including Repairs Universe, Injured Gadgets and FixEZ. Some stores sell screen replacement kits that come complete with tools; otherwise, you’ll need to buy tools separately. Toolkits start at $5.

Expect to pay between $92 and $240 for a replacement screen, depending on your Samsung model, whether your buy new or refurbished and whether you buy the screen with or without the frame (the frame adds around $20 and can make installation easier). Keep in mind that quality varies, and you’ll typically spend more for a high-quality screen. Pricing can also vary by color.

Note that some parts suppliers sell OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts while other sell aftermarket parts. Some offer both. Here are some example replacement Samsung screen prices (with the frame).Galaxy S20New: $240

How to replace your Samsung screen WARNING: Screen replacement can be a difficult repair, especially if you aren’t experienced. Before you attempt to replace your own Samsung screen, be aware that you risk causing additional damage and you could void any warranties and insurance policies.

You can find detailed step-by-step instructions on sites like iFixit and YouTube. Here are screen replacement videos for the Samsung Galaxy S20, S10 and S9.

Should you fix your Galaxy screen or sell it broken? You might want to base your decision on how much your phone is worth broken versus repaired, especially if you plan to upgrade soon.

For example, at the time of this writing, a Samsung Galaxy S10 128GB on the Verizon network was worth $155 in good condition. Here’s a breakdown of its net value after different repair options.

Galaxy S10 Value – Cost of Repair = Net Value After RepairRepair MethodValue (good condition)– Repair/Deductible Cost= Net Value After Repair

Next, compare the net value after repair to what your Samsung phone is worth in broken condition. At the time of this writing, a broken Samsung Galaxy S10 128GB on the Verizon network was worth $40.

Out-of-warranty and DIY repair options cost more than the phone is worth, so your phone would lose value if you chose those options. Keep in mind that might not be true for all models.

Of course, your decision depends not only on the value, but also how long you plan to keep your phone. If you intend to keep it for a few more years, it’s cheaper to repair it than to buy a new phone.

If you plan to upgrade soon and trade in your old phone, however, it’s a good idea to compare your options to see whether you’ll get more value after repair or selling it as-is.

However, if the digitizer or LCD is also damaged during a fall, that screen no longer carries value because it cannot be refurbished. Repair shops cannot sell broken LCDs to refurbishing companies; therefore, they cannot offset the cost of an LCD repair. That is why repair stores often charge a little extra if there is damage to the LCD or digitizer, to make up for that loss. Repair stores that don’t have an additional charge for an LCD repair typically inflate their glass repair price to make up for the loss from damaged LCDs. If they have one price, that means everyone is paying more to cover the cost of customers who have damaged LCDs and customers who only have cracked glass. This is why TCR separates the price of glass and LCD repairs for you! If you only have cracked glass, you only have to worry about paying to replace the cracked glass.

If your phone or tablet’s glass is shattered there will be cracks or chips on the screen itself. If it is just the glass that is damaged, the device may still function and you may be able to use it normally. If this is the case, it is likely that only the glass needs to be replaced. To prevent further damage to your device it is best to get it repaired quickly. For example, if liquids seep through the cracks it could cause permanent damage to the LCD.

Many people may continue to use their touchscreen with shattered glass and delay fixing the glass on their devices; however, if the touchscreen isn’t responsive, it could be a sign of more significant damage to the device’s digitizer which is integrated with the LCD screen.

A pixelated screen can indicate LCD damage. This would look like a patch of multicolored dots, a line or lines of discoloration, or a screen with rainbow colors. For many people, these colors are an easy way to know that their LCD is broken and that they should get it repaired.

Dropping your phone isn’t the only reason you’ll end up with a pixelated screen. Over time, your screen’s LCD may break down through regular use. This happens to other devices aside from your smartphone or tablet. Pixelation can happen to TVs and computers, too. People typically decide to buy a new device when this happens. Fortunately, with an LCD repair, you can fix the device without needing to replace it.

A black screen or black spots on your smartphone or tablet is an indication of a damaged LCD. Often with a bad LCD, a phone may still turn on and make noises, but there is no clear picture. This does not necessarily mean any other part of the phone is damaged and a simple screen replacement will get it functioning again. Sometimes it can mean a battery or other internal component is damaged. It is best to have a highly qualified phone repair technician diagnose what is wrong so the appropriate repair can be made.

Fortunately, your mobile device is fixable whether you cracked the glass or damaged the LCD. Stop by or call TCR: Triangle Cellular Repair at (919) 263-2699 for a free diagnostic and quick, affordable cell phone repair in Chapel Hill and surrounding areas. We’re always happy to help!

A technician will test the basic functionality of the device and examine the surface of it for damage.

The training that it takes to become a uBreakiFix repair technician is extensive, but we want to make sure that our techs have all the knowledge they need to complete any and all Samsung repairs.

So basically, as soon as your new device needs a repair, we’ve got the tools and skill to make it look and work like it just came out of the box. Whether you’re carrying the absolute newest Galaxy device or you love your Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus, we can help if something goes wrong with it.

This personalized support service connects you with live, US-Based tech experts who can walk you through next steps on repairs.

For New York residents, Tech Coach is available for $4 or $5 per month depending on the type of device.

Once a phone has water damage — from small spills to a full liquid plunge — there’s often no easy fix. The first step should be to check if your smartphone’s Liquid Contact Indicator has been activated. Most models, including Apple, LG and Samsung, have small visible indicators to show whether water damage has occurred. Consider peace of mind for those inevitable accidents with Verizon’s Verizon Protect or  Total Mobile Protection. Not only is your phone covered if it gets water damage, you may be eligible for a full replacement that same day.

I’ve accumulated a couple of cracked phones in recent months, thanks to my resistance to cases and having a 5-year old around. Because both phones happen to be phones (Galaxy S10e and Pixel 3a) I like a lot and do not want to pay to replace, I decided I’d go the uBreakiFix route to get them freshened up and back in working condition. And since some of you may be curious how this process works, I figured I’d at least document it for those who have questions.

This seems like a common sense step, but the most important thing is to decide if your phone should be replaced or fixed. If your phone is a couple of years old, there are all sorts of ways to get new phones for cheap these days, so spending $100 on a repair may not be worth doing. However, if your phone is newish or not paid off or you just really love it, a quick 2-hour fix could be the play. Fixing a $700 phone for $100 isn’t awful, but fixing a $400 phone for $100 might be a tougher decision.

Also, keep in mind that uBreakiFix is an official repair partner for Samsung and Google products, so you’ll get genuine parts. In fact, when uBreakiFix needs parts for Samsung phones, they order them directly from Samsung, at least that’s what they told me.

After doing that, you start walking through their repair system where you choose your phone and the service you need. Assuming you chose a store, you should see pricing for services. uBreakiFix does price match local competitors and beat those by $5, so if you think their prices are high, feel free to do a bit of shopping around.

If you are good with the price and ready to schedule a repair, uBreakiFix gives you plenty of options. The store near me clearly shows which days they have open and which time slots you can choose to drop off your phone for repair. They typically give you 2-hour windows for drop off.

As your scheduled repair time arrives, dropping off your phone takes only a few minutes. A person will do a couple of quick tests to make sure there aren’t additional problems outside of the service you scheduled. For example, they make check to make sure the display still has touch responsiveness, that your WiFi works, that microphones and cell connections aren’t affected, etc.

If you have a lock on your phone, there are some things to know here. With my Pixel 3a that I dropped off, uBreakiFix didn’t need to know my pattern outside of a quick one-time unlock to check some things (like gathering the IMEI). But for my Galaxy S10e, they needed me to write down my pattern because they apparently needed access to my phone for special testing required by Samsung. If I didn’t give them that password, they said they’d have to factory reset the phone. So depending on your phone, you’ll need to decide how you want to approach that.

I had two repairs, as you know, one for a back glass replacement on a Galaxy S10e and another for the front glass of the Pixel 3a. The estimated time for both to be done was close to 3 hours after I dropped them off.

Upon inspection of my phones, I noticed that the Pixel 3a screen replacement had popped up slightly in the bottom right corner, so they immediately took it to the back and put it into a “press” to try and fix it. Since it had already popped up once in 24 hours, they let me know that all repairs are covered for 90 days and that should it pop-up again, I could bring it back in at no cost and they’d potentially consider other ways to get the display to stay down. Should it pop-up after this post goes live, I’ll try to provide an update on how follow-ups go.

90-day warranty. As I mentioned above, all repairs are covered by a uBreakiFix 90-day warranty, so if you run into issues after they complete a repair, you are covered at all of their locations.

Extended warranties. In addition to the 90-day warranty, they offer extended warranties if you install their app and log the repairs you had done through some sort of loyalty program. I installed it to see how that works and tried to sign-in with my Google account, but Google basically told me it wasn’t secure enough to do that. So yeah, that’s not good and you may want to avoid it or not use your Google account to login.

Payment confusion. When I paid for my Galaxy S10e back glass replacement, I was charged $99.99, which I realized when I got home was higher than what I was quoted ($79.99). I emailed the local store back to see what was up and they emailed me right back to say they were looking into the price discrepancy. A few hours after that, they called to say they were refunding me the $20 difference. I have no idea why the price changed and didn’t match up to the quote I received when I booked the appointment, but you should make sure you are charged the correct amount.

Overall, other than the Pixel 3a screen that I now need to keep an eye on and a price discrepancy that was quickly fixed, working with uBreakiFix is a pretty effortless experience for standard fixes like screen replacements. Like I said in the opening, I’ve used them before and knew what to expect this time, so I didn’t really run into any surprises. The staff has been friendly and easy to work with both times now. They explain their process pretty openly, make booking appointments and picking services super simple, and are a convenient way to get expensive gadgets up and running again without having to fully replace them. But like any other repair situation, keep documents around, inspect finished repairs, and make sure you pay what was quoted.
