Replacement digitizer

[ggreenwood334]

Stupid question. Replaced plenty of screens before. My sister has a Verizon gs4. Cracked screen yesterday and over nighted a digitizer without my help. Lol. Its for i9500. Which is international version. I am assuming this will not work with the Verizon us model? Thanks.

I can help

I work at a cell phone repair shop. The digitizer runs through the LCD on most newer Samsung phones, so did you buy a LCD/glass combination piece or did you buy just the glass lens?

would really like to know how this goes. I have a glass screen protector which I have cracked, hopefully just the procter and not the screen itself. haha either way let me know how this turns out

on the s4 all carriers the digitizer is fused to the lcd the outer glass has nothing to do with touch.
the outer glass just protects everything no connections at all so its not like the older phones.

google youtube the glass lcd digitizer repair.

I had to fix mine

In fact, the LCD screen and digitizer can be used all the models and only the frame under the screen is different.

Thanks. I figured that out. Never changed just the glass before. Always been digitizer. It was kinda nice. If you leave adhesive on LCD. Just heat up rub off and clean with water and windex mix. Worked great for me in a pinch.
