HI everyone I have a live demo unit 900x and was wondering is it possible to just change the motherboard with say a 900f and it would work normally ?
I don't see why it wouldn't work as the motherboard is the phone heart. Wouldn't want to know the cost of a new board tho...

I bought a s5 with a bad led and cracked motherboard works fine and it is g900f so that should work ? Got it for 60€
Why not?

no problem that's surprising the first time (also for me after one year of use). but this phone is very thin and powerful so you hands can feel the calories at dissipation stage.
for more detail just Google it about and you'll better understand.
Nobody is anymore complaining.
So all of a sudden tonight my knock on feature stopped working. Then I noticed that I have a dead spot on my screen as you can tell from the photo attachment. I have no warranty so sending it in to LG isn't an option. I've did some reading and can't seem to find if this is a software or hardware issue? Can anyone shed some light here? It's a D803 variant. Should I replace the digitizer or not? I need a working phone asap as I'm driving across the country next week.
Thanks

Had this problem as well along with many others. I do believe it is a hardware issue. As far as your method of repair, I'm not sure. I got mine replaced under warranty.

I appreciate your feedback. Went to my local repair shop today and they are gonna replace my LCD and digitizer for me on Monday. $100 charge to do it. I'm fine with that I need a working phone especially since I'm about to drive across the country. Here's to hoping.

Hello everyone!
I bought my gn3 about a week ago and now i noticed that the lighting isn't even????
Did i damage it or note 3's have this issue?
its visible when the brightness is set to about 30% and on a gray background. its most visible on the left side of the screen (like a slightly brighter tint or something)
can anyone check it on their devices as well for me?
Thanks!
Edit : it's not only on the left side it's all over the screen. when I open the phone app I can see the background isn't one color but scales of dark grey and I think it's supposed to be black.

It's like that and there's really nothing you can do.
Except trying to find another N3 that doesn't have that, or at least in a smaller scale, but good luck with that.
And next time, do some Google searching...The phone is now more than one year old, so any other problems you encounter, you definitely wont be the first one.

Ah, I see.
I'll check my friend's note 3 tomorrow and I'll tell you what I find.
Thanks a lot.

That's normal. Nearly all units have that.

I checked my friend's and it's smoother than mine. Also mine is a little visible all the time.
Well then, since it's in all units I'm okay with it.
Does anyone know what causes it?
Thanks for everyone who replied.

Here's a picture. Look at that left edge.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
That definitely isn't normal. I would exchange it.
I see. Well I will try to replace it and see if they are going to accept. Because it's only visible in few lighting conditions. (it also annoys me a lot)

Hm, this looks more like Light Bleed. That does warranty attempting to replace it, it shouldn't have that. (Although it often does in a lot of devices)
Well. What's the cause of that? Is it some loose screw?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Free mobile app
So I was thinking of replacing it. But before that I made a research about light bleeding. They say it's pretty common. So, I'm afraid if I replace it I get a worse one. What do you guys think?

It's a display problem. Samsung will replace it for free.
I see. But what if the new unit has the same issue? Do I keep replacing?

I don't think you will have the same problem. They have to replace the display, if also your new display will be broken, you are a very unlucky person
Well. I will go and see. I will tell you guys what will happen.
Thank you

So I finally have free time and might go replace it within the next week.
And I'll see if I can get a red replacement if they were going to replace it

I went to the Samsung service and I found out the place is no longer there anymore.... Dammit
I think I might just stick to it then? /:

I have no idea where you're from, but there's usually more than one Samsung Service Centre in a country.. You can find the addresses on the Samsung website under Contact.
I just called them and oh gee. It's a 30 minute drive. I'm too lazy to drive for 30 minutes. Also I have exams. So maybe next week? xD
Bare with me guys

Seen a video on YouTube, doesn't look too hard but want to be extra safe because I've never opened the s4 ever. So has anyone managed to replace the vibrator without messing anything up and how hard is it?

hi mate,
I replaced a few things on the S4 before never the vibrator , except the LCD/digitizer the rest is fairly easy...of course depends on how skill you are.
to open the body use a guitar pick or a corner of and old plastic card ( credit card type ) to wiggle between both parts of the phone body
Where can I purchase a official vibrating flex cable from?

So as the title states, I currently have a SM-N900. I was messing around yesterday and I wanted to install A sm 900t motherboard in this device after installing the motherboard from my T-Mobile Note 3 put it back together and everything I want to power on my device and it wouldn't power on any idea what it could be. Any help is greatly appreciated I figured if I put the other motherboard and at least get some 4G LTE since I like it on here H+

Does the 900t motherboard work with the original screen?
The 900T has a broken screen an digitizer. So I can't see anything on screen. But it does power up

Maybe something is damaged in the sm-900? Does the sm-900 work with its original motherboard?

Yes. I'm currently using the N900. Was just hoping in swapping the motherboard out, but that wouldn't work
Sent from my SM-N900 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Sounds the the parts are not completely interchangeable even though the 900t motherboard fits in the n900.
