now you have to heat up the screen using a heat gun or hairdryer.
-
Use a spudger and "peel" or "slide" the spudger under the digitizer, watch out for the lcd screen). Once you're under the digitizer use a credit card or plastic cards to slide between the adhesive and the digitizer. If the adhesive is still to hard , heat again.

Reassembly instructions would have been nice as it's far more difficult to re-fit the screen than take it off. My advice to anyone doing this is to make sure the lcd is fitted in the correct position in the phone before sticking the screen down properly otherwise you might have to start the whole process again to realign the lcd.
Thats true. And my apologies for that. It was late that day and i did it alone so i needed both hands to do this. But your info i correct. thanks for that.

Does anyone actually have a source for the Original Gorilla glass samsung digitisers without paying the earth , Samsung New Zealand are over priced , and the Chinese copy glass ones are terrible be prepared to go through 3 of them to get one on , and then it customer breaks it in a week due to to copy glass weakness. Anyone ? thanks
Hi Tim
If you can source this part and able to fix them at a fair rate, I have a client going through 3-4 LCDs per month.

here in Belgium you can order a Original at replacedirect.be ( or nl) and they are price correct. i know sometimes they ask to much for spare parts. i think thats a commercial reason.. i had the same with spare parts for my tv, so it makes replacing parts to expensive to repair.
or check ( if possible for your region) EETeuroparts
Hi Kevin. Thanks for the walk-through!
To me the glueing part when assembling the screen, is a major question and problem. Where to glue and where to definately avoid it. To My Wonder its quite rare that tutorials even mentioned this.
In this case, do you Just use the remainders from the old glueing or is it maybe this model is a sort of click-on..?...
Hey Jan
I used some New adhesive strips ... I dont know werd hou are from but in belgium or Holland you can order these at replacedirect.be or nl ... I used it on the side and the bottom also on the upper side from the Phone but not arround the whole phone..

Actually, it's not necessary to cut the digitizer cable as shown in step 3. Extracting the LCD display gets slightly harder if you don't do that but it is still possible. It might come useful in case you have a working old digitizer but with a broken glass and you don't want to destroy it completely but save it for the future, just in case.
Also, I think it is not necessary to remove the screw in step 6. In my G388F XCover3, the plastic lid covering the LCD connector can be removed regardless of whether the screw is in or out.
