Samsung s4 glass replacement?
 
I cracked my glass a month ago and been searching for reliable and decent price place to fix But still haven't found one less than 100 dollars. Anyone know a place to fix this for cheap?

I heard the equipment is 10 bucks only...


UPDATE

K so got my glass repaired, cheapest place i found was 49th and fraser, buncha indians better than surrey kids i guess. $160 final price. Glass is china stuff, doesnt feel as smooth as original glass. Gets dirty easy, finger prints, dust etc. Home button kinda unresponsive and jammy ( still fully functionable ). The guy left some dust prints in there but not that obvious and when the light comes on; its not dat bad and I aint a huge guru about how it looks when its off so its ok. Easy solution I found to this whole problem was get a professional screen protector mounted. Now feels almost like the original, prob could sell it no problem if i wanted to.

Found out aberdeen second floor does whole digitzer and frame for $200 afterwards. fuckmeright.jpeg .

:lol

Good luck getting it done for less than $100 when it isn't a DIY.

Yeah what CRS said. If you're not DIY stores will charge $250-300 to get it replaced

Around $150 is the going rate. If you're not willing to order the part yourself and DIY it won't be any cheaper.

where did you get 150? It's usually around 200

I saw on craiglist post they could replace the glass only for $145
glass + lcd digitalizer for $270ish

edit. found it http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/va...171443880.html

hmm weird. Most places do the full replacement because the LCD and the glass are so thin they can only purchase both together.

IIRC. They melt the glue around the glass and separate it from the LCD.

Yup, make sure when you get it at a shop that this is what they're doing and not just replacing the glass with no glue in between. You'll lose touch responsiveness and it costs them $12 most to get it fix this way.

If $150 is the professional way with that clear glue in between the glass, it's worth it IMO.
