Cracked screen? Touch not working? Bad OLED display? Use this guide to replace the display + touch panel assembly in your Galaxy S8+ and restore it to perfect working order. | '''Prerequisite-only screen repair guide.''' | | This guide instructs you to replace only the display while leaving the original frame, logic board, and battery in place. '''Note''': some replacement screens for this phone come pre-installed in a new frame (a.k.a. chassis), which requires you to transplant all of your phone's internals and install a new battery. This procedure is very different, so make sure you have the correct part before starting this guide. | | '''If the frame is damaged or bent''', it's important to replace it, or else the new screen may not mount correctly and can suffer damage from uneven pressure. | | The process of separating the display from the frame usually destroys the display, so don't follow this guide unless you intend to replace the display. |
