Good to hear you did it at your job with iphones. Any idea what glue they use to bond the glass to the digitizer? I have searched and searched and cannot find anything. I have done several S3 so far and this is the one ingredient lacking for a complete repair. In terms of what it feels like while removing the old glue; it seems to be silicone based the way it comes up, you can roll it into little balls, it's is tacky and has that rubbery consistency.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dntesinfrno:
Unfortunately, no idea what adhesive they use. Personally i would attempt what YellowGTO did first and simply heat the existing glue and see how it holds. Normally this should be enough to do the job, as you can imagine the stuff if pretty tacky. Especially if the lens fits as tightly as his in the video, its doubtful it will fall out even with the slightest remaining glue. If for whatever reason there isn't enough to firmly hold the screen in place i've used small dabs of liquid tape where necessary, or the thin 3M double sided tape would work also i suppose. In this case i usually wrap the device in a towel or shirt or whatever you have laying around and set something with some decent weight on top of it, screen side down on a flat surface, overnight to give the adhesive time to setup properly.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] marcustaz:
Sure the outer frame is enough in most cases to hold it on, thats fine. But there is a side effect once all the glue is removed off the digitizer. There will a micro gap between the 2 when the original glue is removed. If you press the new glass hard enough, ( for example cleaning fingerprints like I often do against my shirt ) and it touches the digitizer, the phone freezes. You must then power off the screen, sleep button and then press power again to bring it up and then it will work again. Seems to be a recalibration process going on.

Maybe these 2 posts should be merged and I would certainly read the post below. Much more good info here on the subject...

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dntesinfrno:
Yea, i've been following several threads about lens replacement, even before i busted mine (jinxed myself?). I'd much rather have to deal with a 15 second reboot over possibly damaging the LED or worse using an adhesive that may not be transparent. I can live with the air gap, or even the 'invisible' smudges on my personal device...although if i were going to do this for profit obviously that would be unacceptable. 20 dollars and an hour of my time vs 200+ for the whole assembly or 125 for an insurance deductable..i can overlook imprefections ;). It would be interesting to find out exactly what substance they are using though.

EDIT - Just for SnG's i googled 'mobile screen glue' and this was the first result. http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/523467689/Optical_Clear_Adhesive_for_touch_screen.html?s=p

While i'm sure its not the only product out there for this purpose, if this is any indication it won't come cheap..
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] marcustaz:

JUst did an even EASIER replacement for a cracked camera lens. I purchased this part from ebay :

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Blue-Housin.../271099346918?ssPageName=ADME:L:eek:C:US:3160

1) Turn phone off

2) Take off battery cover

3) Remove battery, SIM card, and SD Card

4) remove about 8 screws to remove the middle back place.

5) Remove middle back place carefully (There are still tabs holding it secure)

6) Place new middle back in place

7) Screw down

8) Replace battery, SIM card, and SD card

9) Replace battery cover

10) Power up phone!!

Took all of 10 minutes total. Flawless fix on my AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 3

Glass differences

I've read repeatedly that the housing for i9300 is different from I747 but is the glass different?

Many online listings for glass list all 3 models. The one I purchased mistakenly was for an I9300 but I have an I747. It seems as though there is a cable attachment for the buttons on the I9300 but can they just be removed?

I was just wondering if anyone has these problems.

http://www.knowyourmobile.com/blog/1494685/samsung_galaxy_s3_cracked_case_problems.html

I've been reading online that the galaxy s3 has been having some body case issues and with the screen also..

http://www.netbooknews.com/51826/mysterious-crack-in-samsung-galaxy-s3-screen/

I also heard Samsung admitted about the faulty screens. I just wanted to know if anyone else is having these issues?

My GS3 from Verizon is doing just fine, nothing wrong.

Same problem

I've got the UK SIM Free version of this phone and a mysterious small crack appeared on my phone after the first couple of days of usage. I've noticed since then it's gradually started to get bigger. It's got to be a design flaw because it's always kept in a cushioned case.

I'm not very happy after spending £600 on this handset. I didn't take out insurance. :(

Read the developers page and see which kernels are suited for you're Rom. If it's aosp I believe you need the kernel for aosp. Take a look and see the recommendations and this way you know which are available for you to try. If your stumped and can't find any recommendations post on the developers site and I'm sure the users there will know which is best suited for that particular Rom . They all use that Rom so you will be able to get a more clear answer from the developers forum . I really hope this helps you out and I wish you the best!

Hi,

I genuinely apologize if there is already a thread concerning this.

I am looking for either a custom wm 6.5 rom with soft keys on it or an app which adds this to an existing wm 6.5 rom.

By soft keys I mean that there is a basically an on screen button for every hard button. As a result there is no need to use the hard buttons except for turning on the screen and phone.

Hopefully someone know whether this is available. It is the last chance to make any use of my HD2 ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Z80-Man:
Hi,

You question is rather difficult to understand... Are you saying you're looking for a software "power on/off button" ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTCHDFERT:
I'll try to clarify.

Obviously I am not looking for a soft key to unlock the phone since that would require the screen to be on at all time.

So what I am looking for: a way of having softkeys on the screen of the device. So above the hard-phone-button there is a softkey for the phone, and above the home-hardkey there is a home-softkey etcetera. However I discovered I still need to disable the hard buttons because they randomely activate.

So far I managed to disable quite a few buttons using AEB Buttons, but I cannot manage to disable the home button, so if you know a way of doing this then that would be great.

[HTC Desire S] Pride4u:
Howdy,

I've tried Virtuous Quattro RC3, whose development unfortunately stopped, and now I'm using IceColdSandwich 8.3, which is a great ROM, but I've encountered a few apphangs and the camera is still not as polished as I would have liked.

Could you recommend a ROM with regard to what I mentioned above?
[HTC Desire S] 505dv:
CM9 is good, although development also stopped on that. CM10 is very promising. Using that now as my daily ROM. Stability is the same as CM9, so no issue with that. A few things are now working, such as the front-face camera, but that's not a big issue for me.

If you want a completely stable ROM, with no issues, your best choice is probably an Gingerbread ROM, at least until there is a ICS compatible kernel from HTC.
[HTC Desire S] Pride4u:
Well, I'm kinda inclined to try Ice DS or BlindBean, but I can't decide which one it's going to be.

Anyway, thanks
[HTC Desire S] rain987:
it's not like buying a house or choosing a wife.

i used to be hesitant like u, but after flashing from cm7.1 i never stop flashing. and i try to make it a point to try it all(gB , jB or anyB).

u can flash ice ds, try it out, make a back up, then flash blindbean, if u prefer the earlier, then just revert back.
[HTC Desire S] juancp:
I've used pretty much all ICS roms posted so far (bad case of flash-itis), and so far my two favorites are Fallout V4.4 which has Sense 4.0 and is really really fast, and ICE_DS with Sense 3.6

My favorite so far is ICE_DS because Sense 3.6 is less obstrusive than 4.0, and ideally I'm looking for a ROM without any sense at all (CM10).

I would try ICE_DS first... and make sure to follow the instructions on the first post! It's very important to do the FULL WIPE they ask there, it solved a lot of problems I had.

Hope this helps!

As a general rule, all AOSP ROMs with ICS and above aren't stable for heavy use as they use kernel 2.6. If you want stable ICS+ use Sense ROMs. However, Super kid has a jelly bean ROM which uses Kernel 3.0 which is a major breakthrough IMO. I've switched over to it, mainly due to the kernel. Very very stable, no reboots after days of heavy use.
