I cracked my Note 3 screen.

[xJ321x]

Has anyone replaced one of these? Are they easy to fix? Know of any detailed tutorials? Also, what's the cheapest I'm gonna have to spend on a replacement screen (Got a link?)?

Wondering if it's even worth the fix.


Thanks

The link in the screen fixing guide shows that the screen costs ~$200.

Can you still see and use the touchscreen on the phone, or is it just a black screen?

search Ebay for the screen

I can still use the phone, it's just cracked A LOT. Why does this matter?

If it is just the glass that is cracked and not the led itself, you can get a replacement glass lens kit for $5 on eBay.

My last phone (also a Note 3) was chewed through in the top left corner by a dog, and replacing the entire unit came out to about $300'ish or so. It's a massive pain in the ass if you don't have insurance on it.

That is not an easy replacement fyi. It will never be as good as factory

Will it be obvious I replaced it or just to the trained eye?

Probably not, but it may not feel the same when using it.
