Hello,
I have cracked my Xperia SP digitizer and I'm currently searching for a replacement. I found many, although the thing is that there are some that have the logo costing about 20 to 30 EU and some without the logo costing under €10. Is there any difference between them? I really do not care about the logo, the only thing that concernes me is the quality, meaning sensitivity, accuracy and durability. Are the OEMs worth their money or is it the same quality on both? Can I post the links from the sites I found them, so you can check? Thanks a priori!

I changed once to nobname digitizer. After 5 minutes I bought used original one. Cheaper and much better quality. So I suggest to search for used one in good condition.
These with logo can be also not original sony digitizer.
Ive found original one in sony store (live in PL) It cost about 50eur.

For who want to know, i ordered digitizer for 4,5$ from Aliexpress. I applied that and everything's working fine and acceptable for 4$ money. I only have some responsiveness a little [not so much] . Rarely the touch speed is slowing down for 1-2 minutes, but it comes back then. And the light sensor isn't working for me ( it's not problem for me) :D

I ordered a digitizer from Amazon, no issues whatsoever. But I think it was originally from China, because it was very cheap. Judging from my experience, a digitizer from eBay, Aliexpress might do the job just fine.

is it related to the holes of the sensors what is the difference between black and white ? ( already have a new black one but its doesn't work)
I don't think either that it's a color-based problem. I think it's digitizers problem because some digitizers chip's are different.Maybe their sensors also different.:confused:

guys could you give me a link to a digitizer you bought which works on CM13-CM14 custom roms.

I bought 2 digitizers and 2 of them are only working on Jellybean. Not working on 4.1.2 + roms ...
