I have a Samsung Galaxy Amp 2 and the screen got cracked but the display will not come on so it is more than just a broken screen because I know phones can still display with a broken screen. Everything else about the phone still works it is just whatever makes the phone display that is broken. I tried to take apart the phone but there are no screws, I tried to look up a disassembly guide but there are none for this phone. How am I supposed to get the back of the phone off/ the front off (I don’t know which side is supposed to come off) and how do I fix the digitizer/lcd display?
Hello, I recently had my galaxy amp 2 break, (Digitizer shattered) and I figured out how to repair. Since there are no screws on the back of the phone that means they are under the screen. First at the back of the phone, there is a little hatch or cover covering the screen ribbon cable located at the top right of the back, use a spudger or razor to pop it out and undo the ribbon cable. Then using a hairdryer or heat gun to melt the glue sealing the screen to the phone, use a metal spudger or razor blades (exacto knife will do), pry the screen from the edges of the phone and reheat if necessary. After the screen is peeled off, the silver shiny part (digitizer) is also adhered to the motherboard, using a heatgun or hairdryer will do the trick to get it up, be very careful as the digitizer tends to be extremely fragile and can get glass shards everywhere. After the digitizer is removed you can then use double sided tape or adhesive of your choice to install a new screen. If you have any questions feel free to email me at jakubd309@gmail.com Thanks!
