My galaxy tab fell from the coffee table onto the floor and the screen cracked. I sent it in to Samsung Absolut in Montreal for repair. They quoted just over $300 to have the screen replaced and as it is being covered through my credit card I told them to go ahead. The thing is that we have now been waiting for over two weeks for Samsung to ship a replacement front panel. I have tried ebay but there do not seem to be any listings. I called Samsung customer service but they were less than helpful. Any suggestions?

Sorry to hear that mate. Read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9629791&postcount=23
I had the same thing happen. I spoke to Samsung, they told me to send it to an authourized repair centre. I did. They said the screen and the lcd were inseperable and it would cost $300 to replace. I said okay as my credit card insurance was paying for it. After waiting for a month for the replacement part, I told them to just ship it back. I purchased a gelaskin to cover the cracks (they are mostly on the bezel). Best $20 I ever spent. Good luck to you. If you do get it replaced for $65 please post where you sent it as I would be interested as well.
Get insurance from squaretrade its like 90 bucks for 3 years. Check the facebook page for discount code. You can get it up do 90 days of device purchase.
Hey, will Squaretrade still work if it is already broken? I have warranties with them for other things, but they were purchased new (as was my Tab) but now my tab's screen is totally cracked. Do they ask if its damaged?
So today a fan fell over onto my dresser where my Galaxy Tab 10.1 from Google IO was charging and cracked the lower right hand side of the screen. Has anyone else had their screen crack and fixed it or talked to Samsung about it? It seems to still be working, but still, the screen is cracked.
And this happens today, while my case is set to be delivered tomorrow. Damn it.
Try to blame it on this

Could be expensive though as replacing the 7" GTab screen costs $180 (yeah I know.. might as well buy a new one or do it yourself). Don't see any digitizer part on ebay yet.

If you purchased it using a credit card many cards will cover accidental damage for 90 days. Check with your credit card company as there are limitations.

How much did they charge you for the screen? Did you replace it yourself? I broke mine today and am looking for a OEM replacement.
Be careful sending your phones in to Samsung for repair. I sent my Galaxy S III in for repair. The repair was supposed to take 5 days but instead took 21 business days. When I got the phone back the water damage sticker was activated. The phone was in a zip lock bag, wrapped in bubble wrap, and put in a UPS shipping bag that was in a box. The phone was water damaged at the Samsung repair facility in Texas. Now Samsung wants me to return the phone to them and they expect it to take a week to get it back. How can a phone leave their repair facility water damaged after taking 16 days longer to repair. Samsung repair support is terrible and I will never buy another Samsung phone again.

Do you have a I9300 phone ???

I was siting down yesterday afternoon with my Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-i9505 in my right tracksuit pocket I stood up got a text and took out my phone to check and I see the screen is cracked and is not displaying anything apart from the top third of the screen. I've been to a shop and they said it'll cost £145.00 to repair and Samsung UK said it's not covered by warranty and I'll have to pay a similar price at a service centre. It was bought off eBay last summer and is not on contract although I am a T-Mobile UK Pay As You Go user. Is there anyway anyone would know to repair it for cheaper or even possibly free (with some sort of warranty) as I'm just a teenager.
Hello,
I have managed to be an idiot once again and break the screen on my S8, it's cracked and doesn't respond to touch.
I need it replaced and I am considering all options.
I am thinking of buying a replacement screen together with a precision tool kit and doing the repair myself by following some videos on youtube.
Getting it repaired by a professional may be more trouble then it's worth.
Has anyone replaced the screen on this phone? I am looking for any tips or wise words. Is there a forum I can ask more detailed questions about the repair?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I have replaced in official service center for 280$ including service and new frame and after replacement it's still watter resistent i tested in pool
Thats why you get insurance when you buy a delicate phone like S8. I broke screen of my S8+ but thankfully had the insurance. Repair centre gave an estimate of 235$ but due to insurance i paid just 10$
There was no insurance in my country
I should have at least had a protective case on the phone. What can I say I was a bit of an idiot.
I am particularly worried about putting it together myself, mainly applying the adhesive correctly. I would really like the phone to stay water resistant.
FROM our China. to insurance i paid just 9$
It's really cheap.
