Is there a way to take off the front glass ONLY? With the S4 the front glass was ONLY attached to a cable for the buttons on the bottom. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Or the galaxy S5 as well?
How do I get a new light to light up my screen as I'm hoping I can use it n just change the light
I would also know if the iopener will allow me to take off only the glass and NOT the digitizer with it. If anyone knows, please share.
My S5 fell down and and after some hours there appears ink on the screen. Please what is wrong? Do I need to change the whole screen or is there a unit that brings out ink and have to change only that unit only?
