Phone screen starting to delaminate - fixable? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As above just bought an S5 second hand and the last owner said it was because of a gap between the screen protector and the glass.
I removed the protector and found it was between the glass and the black backing to the right of the Samsung text. You can press the glass and the gap removes showing black again, but it does seem to be growing.
Can this be fixed? If so how?

[Q] Tiny white object under the glass screen?

Bought a Galaxy S4 on ebay a few weeks back. Didn't notice it at first, but when I sat down to apply a screen protector and wiped the screen clean, I noticed there is some sort of a micro object, like a white dot just under the glass. It is not a dead pixel, because it is there when screen is completely off, and when I tilt the phone and hold it at an angle I can see that LCD under this tiny dot is clean.
What the heck can it be? I doubt the seller changed the glass screen and wasn't careful when cleaning the LCD, but I suppose it is remotely possible since the phone has a nasty scratch with tiny chunks of plastic chipped off, on the bottom right corner of the silver bezel.
Anyone had a problem like this with their screen? Any way to fix this short of removing the screen?
Could be dust under the screen. If I was you I'd get it replaced if it bothers you. I dont think there is no way to remove it other than removing glass to clean it and reapply which I advice against.

Front glass damage - gap between glass and substrate, seems like delamination

I have dropped my S4 a few times, luckily most of the times it was with the ultra thin plastic case. Case did the trick of stopping the glass shattering, but I've noticed an irregular shape appearing beneath the glass in the upper right edge (where the phone has fallen once). The irregularly shaped blob has different colour than the rest of the blue bezel around the screen, it seems that the screen has delaminated from the blue background layer on that part. Phone works without any problems.
Has anyone else been having the same problem (I've seen it also on my colleagues S4, same reason), and is there any easy way to fix it (applying heat/pressure to the delaminated part or something similar)?
The glass digitizer screen is stuck on to the LED screen behind it with an Optical Glue.
I wouldn't think that a small part would come away like that, more likely you have damaged the LED screen.

Fix for touch screen false click or too sensitive XZ2

we all know the issue of the false click or the touch screen being too sensitive.
after trying to fix it by changing the (max1187x_touchscreen_0.idc) and change touch.filter.level= 2 to touch.filter.level= 5 found in \system\usr\idc.
it didn't work very well. so what i did is just add screen protectors to the screen.
how to fix it for sure:
buy the glass screen protector and put it on the screen.
and then buy one plastic screen protector and put it on the glass screen protector.
this should do the trick and isolate your hand from the screen a little so it does not get too sensitive by the hand.
in my situation i used one glass protector and 2 plastic screen protector to be sure that even if my hands get sweaty i will still use the phone without any issues. and i still have the touch.filter.level= 5.
now the phone works fine the added protectors can't be seen as if they are not put on the screen. i think it's not even 1 mm above the screen.
i hope this will help anyone who has issue with the screen being too sensitive.

Replacing front plastic panel color with Home button = not working Fingerprint scanne

Hello all! Sadly, some time ago I have dropped my S5 onto a concrete curb & my screen got through that 2 cracks on the plastic digitizer protector & has missing a bit of the glass at the top & has a hole through the plastic panel under the bottom which worries me about it still being waterproof... I wanted to get the plastic panel replaced (which is relatively cheap since the digitizer isn't broken) together with changing it's color from white to black together with the Home button (I got the white S5, which I now regret getting...) but a friend of mine told me that when the Home button would be changed, I would loose the fingerprint scanner function, which worries me a bit [emoji52] Can someone confirm if this is true or not? Because if it is, then I gonna have to stay with the white color, which I don't like that much now [emoji17]
Someone?

Space between bottom bezel and panel

Hi,
Just bought a new Essentail phone and noticed something funny.
There's about a quarter of a cm (0.01 inch) space between the bottom bezel and the screen panel itself, meaning it looks like the panel doesn't strech all the way down to the bottom bezel. This seems like a minor issue but makes the phone look weird for some reason.
Is this normal? didn't see it on my previous phone.
Thanks
does it have a screen protector?
Look like it is the screen protector and below that the screen itself.
I check on mines and dont have that space
*faceplam* Yeah, so the screen protector explains it.
This is by far the silliest message I ever posted online.
Thanks!
