If it works and you can live with the darkness then don`t waste your money. Wait one more year and buy a used samsung galaxy s4 on craigslist. Because trying to fix it now would be 150 the part. Plus you need tools. It is easy but it is dangerous because of the glass and you could damage it more. It will not be the same as before. But it will work. Try to adjust the contrast to see if it was that.

You need a new LCD and digitizer screen . It doesnt come seperately. Also, if you are planning to replace this yourself, just a word of advice: it's a bit tough to detach the screen,which is the very top layer. To see if yours is even damaged,run your fingers across the screen. If its smooth,its fine,but if you can actually feel the cracks from when it was dropped,then you will need a replacement screen too.I had a galaxy2 and the same thing happened. After going through HELL trying to repair it,I finally figured out that I'm losing $ and had to accept my loss.:( your phone is a tad different though.

I'm not sure. I dropped my phone on a hard floor and shortly after I started seeing blacks "blobs" on the screen and they grew bigger each day. I could still see the screen fine in the areas where there were no blobs. I would do a Google search for entire screen going dark and see what it brings up. This is the second time I had to replace the LCD screen on my droid and both times I had dropped it and both times the blobs appeared and kept growing larger and blocking more of the screen. Good luck.

Yes! I followed the instructions exactly as they were written, afterwards I turned my phone back on and the screen does not work AT ALL. had to get a replacement. Total waste of my money.

This will only solved your problem if your screen was cracked, shattered or broken in any way. If the damage affected your phone internally then it wouldn't.

I've only had my screen on for a short time, I couldn't get dust, hair, debris out no matter what I did. I found it easier to just remove the cheap 'protector', it helped with the response on my phone as well. You can always put it back on, as it's attached with cheap hot glue.

Nope. My phones screen is shattered yet nothing happened to the screen protector which was supposed to shatter first.

It was difficult and time consuming. I had a heat gun and a laser temperature gun. The glue under the screen was super strong and didn't want to release the glass. My glass was totally shattered and I ended up scratching the part under the glass a little bit and, even though I thought I had cleaned it thoroughly, I ended up with a couple bits of something in between the glass and the LCD screen. However, my phone works fine now and the little bit of damage I did to my under screen is less of an issue than the completely shattered glass was. I bought my phone used for $100 and the couple of places I checked about repairing it wanted nearly that much, so I tried this rather than replacing my phone. It was difficult and time consuming.

I cracked my outer glass, used a blow dryer to separate the glass from the LCD screen, then stuck on the new replacement screen. This kit is only for the cracked glass piece. As long as your phone is still touch responsive, it should work.

Yes it carges the whole phone jus the one I had overheated so jus make sure yours don't. Other than that it's a great product. Im jus waiting on my replacement. So don't worry its a great product. Hope that helps you.

After I had mine installed the very next day the screen went black, however the music was playing. I contacted the seller and they allowed me to return it after two weeks I asked for the status they return my system however the touch screen does not work!

If your screen is shattered or cracked, this is all you need unless some other component was damaged. My display was missing colors and it turned out the cable connector on the screen side was bad. If you're doing it yourself, you need special tools and replacement clips that usually break when you pry the case open.

If nothing else is wrong with your phone except for the touch screen then this kit should fix it. If nothing happens when you touch the screen then it either means you have a software problem or the digitizer is broken. If the phone is under warranty, just take it into the store. If its not under warranty, try taking the battery out, hold the power button for 15 seconds, and then put the battery back in and reboot it. If it doesn't work, try reinstalling the operating system/drivers (if the touch screen doesn't work you will need to plug it in and do it from your computer.) If those don't work, then maybe this kit would help. If nothing else is wrong with your phone except for the touch screen then this kit should fix it.

You should get original equipment replacement for your phone. I was told when mine was replaced, the cheaper ones aren't the same quality. It wasn't just a sales pitch because I purchased the lcd replacement on my own and brought it to the repair shop.

The whole purpose of the screen protector is that it breaks instead of your screen. Energy from a drop can't just disappear, it has to be used for something, and the shattering of the protector is where it goes. Buy a new one and don't try to screw over the company for making a product that saved your phone screen by doing what its supposed to do.

I needed nothing else as the screen was cracked and digi bad. There were a few other parts inside besides those mentioned. What's wrong with your phone?

If it isn't responding to the touch then it needs the digitizer itself replaced, not just this lense. It sucks I'm sorry. On super rare occasions the digitizer can be disconnected from the board but that's so so rare it almost doesn't happen. Digitizers are expensive, but cheaper than a new phone. Take care in replacing it and watch some YouTube videos. They will give you great step by step instructions but make sure to look at more than one video to avoid following a mess up.
