10.1 S Pen P-580 Digitizer Replacement - Samsung Galaxy Tab A series Questions & Answers

Gents, anyone know where I can buy a digitizer for the P-580? I smashed my screen and have a new LCD coming in, but I can't find the actual digitizer anywhere. Thanks.

The digitizer for SM-P580 is the same as of SM-T580. However, the LCD is different, SM-P580 has S-Pen flex cable, SM-T580 LCD has no S-Pen cable.
So the full LCD and Digitizer of SM-P580 should have two cables, but the SM-T580 has only one.
This is an example, this guy doesn't know the difference between SM-T580 and SM-P580, the LCD is not the same as SM-T580 's LCD doesn't have S Pen cable.

Hmm, pretty sure the LCD is the same, the Digitizer has the extra cable for the Spen

I think you don't recognize the difference either. Touchscreen has only one cable for itself.
Look at this picture, the SM_P580 is on the right, the orange flex on the top is from digitizer, the second orange flex below is Spen and is from LCD.

Wait until you have your LCD, if there is no flex cable, then you buy the wrong LCD. LCD of SM-T580 has no Spen cable.
Look all over internet, no digitizer has SPen cable.
Look at this sale, where you can find the S Pen cable from the touchscreen
http://www.ebay.com/itm/LCD-Touch-S...hash=item1ec596faf7:m:mCyWijIKhLHFCkJa2RNLP9w
Look at this Note 2014, the S Pen cable is from LCD. Wacom is embeded in LCD, not on the touchscreen.

Verification of touch screen / digitizer
Hi @Beut, I cracked the glass panel touch screen (it the correct terminology the digitizer?) of my SM-P580. If I understand your comments correctly the S-Pen functionality is not in the touch screen / digitizer, but part of the LCD so then that means I can replace the touch screen / digitizer by purchasing the following EBay item id 401420979195 (my account is new so I can't post URLs). Am I correct? TIA!

Be careful when buying, P580 is wider than T580 so touchscreen is not the same size

Much appreciated. By chance have you seen any SM-P580 touch screens for sale? I can only find touch screen and LCD combinations on EBay that cost at least $175USD which is probably not worth it since I bought the unit new for $230USD.

Are you sure the LCD you have already bought doesn't include the digitizer? I've never heard of them being sold separately for the P580 like they are for the T580.

It seems the touchscreen and LCD are glued together with LOCA ( liquid optical crystal adhesive ).
You have to take out the old set to get the frame and home button, not recommend to someone not familiar with lcd replacement.
I see most of the LCD, digitizer set are sold without frame, without experiences, you may damage the LCD frame or cut off the home button cable.
By doing so, your new set of LCD and digitizer is useless.

(question) Is the digitizer for t8585 same as t9193?...

I have a t9193 and my digitizer screen is broken, but looking around found that the USA TMO has different cable connector than t8585... but have no idea wich of the 2 different connectors t9193 uses..

Wow! This is amazing. Thank you so much for the info! This should explain why we can't just swap the screen from the euro for a US version! Thanks!
the 9193 has the same digitizer as the 8525. The type that has to be soldered on.
the Tmo US version has a digitizer that is the same size, but different connection. A latch terminal.
If you get the 8525 LCM unit (LCD+Digitizer), we BELIEVE it will fit in the Tmo US housing. But nobody has done it. But you cannot swap Just digitizer for digitizer, it has to be the whole LCM unit.

I have a Vikuiti screen protector for my t-mo us HD2, and it's slightly shorter than the glass front of my HD2, so I'm pretty sure the T-moUS HD2 digitizer is a little taller than the t8585 & 9193 models. So it may fit in the Tmous housing, but there might be a little gap. I don't think the US models digitizer would fit in the 8585's housing though. But that's just going by how the euro screen protector fits on the tmous screen, so i may be wrong.
Here is the evidence that you may be able to swap them.

Is the digitizer the glass part, or is it separate from the glass? If so, the digitizer probably fits... it's the glass part that I think that has a small size difference.
thanks guys.... now i have to manage to soldered on the terminal... :s
mmmm .... I'm already scared!!!...
can't find a video tutorial just to replace the glass digitizer... any advise?
cya!
Many just say "digitizer" when they really mean the fuzed together unit of the digitizer and glass.
With that said. The 9193 and 8525 come with a soldered terminal version of the digitizer and lcd. The Tmobile US version has a latch terminal digitizer and lcd.
The solder job is a simple one if you have that version. Use a small razor to cut the adhesive between the digitizer and LCD, someone else said they used some sort of string, regardless the digitizer is held on by a weak adhesive and is only around the edges. Make sure not to cut the flex cable while doing this.
AFTER I separated the LCD from digitizer, then I de soldered terminal.
THANKS for the tip FloatHeavy.... I'll try that... did you took pictures by a chance of the procedure?... could be very usefull...
cya!!!

Yup, search "HD2 broken screen" and "HD2 Disassembly". I have breakdowns and pics in two different threads.

"Required easy video or photo tutorial.

If i remember correctly there is a photo tutorial on some blog.
no it's not easy, yes you have to disassemble your phone, no i wouldn't bother trying if i have no clue about how the whole thing is set up.
repairing charges are about 170-200€ ~250$.
I haven't done it yet myself, my screen is alsoo cracked, but it seems very tricky. However, you have to disassemble the HD2 befor you can reach the screen. Also, you have to place the LCD part in the oven for 5 to 10 minutes at 50C degrees to let the glue get loose, because the screen is glued on. And even the digitizer is glued onto the lcd. So, even if you manages just to remove the digitizer, you still have to find a way how to glue it back to each other, without making a mess.
I have already disassembled my HD2 with succes. I am going to HK anyway, so I going to buy replacement LCD + Digitizer and bring my HD2 with so I can fix it right there and check if everything works ok aigain.
If so, I xan ditch the iPhone. I hate it.
I've replaced the digitizer from my Samsung Omnia i900 and it turned out to be very easy, following the instructions I found on the internet and YouTube. I guess it's the same for the HD2.
Is the digitzer and glass surface seperable?
Because i can see what looks like a thin layer of glass from the bits of glass which has fallen off on the bottom corner where it took the hit. Or am i just looking at the edge of hte LCD screen?
And since the screen still responds as per norm.

Hi, thanks for these videos,, very detailed!
Have you got any idea about what she means by 'paste'? Is she just saying to connect A > B or is there some kind of adhesive needed? Also, have you got any links to buy some Mylar, OR do you think I could get away with reusing the ones removed?
By the way, I am going to try and replace the digitalizer in my HD2!
Thanks in advance!
There are 2 types of touch screen digitizers for HD2, you have to make sure you buy the right one. One needs to be soldered to the LCD flex, another plugs in. If you have a plug-in setup - you are in luck, if not - best to be left to professional, as it involves fine flex soldering.
Attaching the digitizer itself to the front housing is similar to that of Nexus and similar devices - 3M sticky double-sided tape is perfect, there is a 2mm one in a large flat roll sold everywhere.
Those who suggested the digitizer and LCD are fused together - wrong. Capacitive digitizers do not adhere to LCD and are attached to the housing itself with a free gap between the LCD and the digitizer.
I strongly recommend PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION.
The best way of doing it is buying a ready assembly. Something along the lines of http://cgi.ebay.com/LCD-Screen-Touc...235?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f0b9f9463 It might be a bit more expensive than buying just a digitizer and attempting to attach it yourself, but you will save yourself a whole lot of trouble. AND it's still cheaper than $250 quoted somewhere above. Once you purchase the assembly, just familiarise yourself with HD2 disassembly/reassembly procedure and install.
Always buy a digitizer that is "OEM", even if it is used. The first digitizer I got for my HD2 with a smashed screen was shipped as 'new' from China, but when I got it, the quality was bad, because it was so cheap, and the screen would not recognize touch correctly..
Always be careful to check if there is anything caught on the middle frame when you take the motherboard out, because if you don't, you will rip something..
When I took my phone apart, I used this tape: http://cgi.ebay.com/3M-ADHESIVE-STI...652633?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item20baa9efd9 and it worked fine

LCD / Digitizer Replacement

My phone recently took a spill onto tile floor from about a foot and a half. It didn't land directly on the face but the glass shattered (Murphy's Law I suppose):

Found a seller on eBay with a number of complete front packages for the Evo (digitizer, LCD, front cam) for $58. You can also find the digitizer separately, but I'd heard that some people have had issues with touch accuracy when replacing just that part. Plus, if you swap the complete front package you don't need to bother with a heat gun to loosen the glue holding the LCD and digitizer together.
One thing to be aware of: due to different ribbon connectors on the Novatek panel versus the Epson, you need to be aware of which screen type you have before purchasing a replacement. There are several ways to tell which panel you have (search the forum or post a reply if you need a point in the right direction).
Part number 83H00256 (S/N beginning 2V6) is the
Novatek LCD panel.
Part number 83H00314 (S/N beginning 2WC) is the
Epson LCD panel.
You can see the part number and serial on this label on the back of the front assembly (picture from ifixit, which did a great teardown on the Evo that can be used for reference):
It's a fairly easy swap so if you're living with a cracked screen (and don't have insurance) I'd highly recommend doing it. The seller I bought from has several more units and offers them for a very reasonable price. You can find his eBay store at http://myworld.ebay.com/secondhandsellular/
A few more pictures of my swap are below (shot with my wife's Pre), but for detailed hi-res pictures see the ifixit teardown.

Thanks for the info.... this will come handy for people without insurance...
Yeah, good job!
Sent from my blah blah blah blah
Nice! Thanks for this! I've got insurance and I'm still considering ordering a spare front assembly just to avoid replacing a phone that I have setup exactly how I want it. I guess the insurance will come in handy if the logic board ever dies, but short of that I think I'll make all repairs myself.

The OP replaced the whole front assembly, so the glass was already installed into the front case half.
Correct. Much easier that way. Plus, all the separate digitizers I found for sale were ~$50 anyway.

In order to disassemble a Samsung Galaxy S II phone first remove the battery and all the cards from the phone.
Use the Phillips screwdriver to remove the seven (7) Screws under the battery cover, as shown in Figure 1.

}
Figure 1​
Now that all the screws are removed. Use a safe open pry tool around the outer edges of the back plate to release the clips holding it in place.
With the backplate removed, you now have access to the motherboard. You need to disconnect 5 flex cables and the antenna wire as located in Figure 2.
Then the two Phillips screws holding the mainboard in place.
The side button contacts are stuck to the frame, you need to separate them before removing the board. Be careful not to tear the cables as they are very delicate. These are located in Green on Figure 2.
Figure 2​
Now, you can remove the motherboard.
With the motherboard removed we can now release the screen assembly from the housing. Use a heat gun or hair dryer on the front of the screen around the outside edges. Keep the heat on medium and use quick movements over the screen, not staying in one place for too long. This should take 30-60 seconds.
This will soften the adhesive enough to remove the screen assembly from the housing. Use a safe open pry tool to release the front frame from the screen assembly.
The screen can now be replaced, just be cautious with the flex cable being fed through the housing.
Reverse the instructions above to reassemble your phone.
We also have this guide as a PDF downloadable guide for your Samsung Galaxy SII available.

Did you buy just the glass on its own? Or the glass with the LCD screen?
It is not possible to replace just the glass on this model as the screens are fused together. However some eBay sellers will still sell it even though it is not usable.

We don't carry the LCD's by themselves and it is not recommended to do so as the screens are bonded together and using a full screen assembly is much wiser.

UPDATE 6/3: Replacing Asus Transformer TF 101 Screen and Digitizer

So my Transformer's screen has been broken for quite some time, and with me acquiring a Galaxy Note, I have really not paid any attention to my TF101. My digitizer wasn't damaged, only the screen.
The problem here is the only way to get the Digitizer off, you are going to crack it, plain and simple. I didn't mind spending the $ on a new LCD and digitizer so I placed the order earlier today.
Digitizer
LCD
I was bored today and decided to separate the Digitizer from the internal assembly. Heated up each side with a hair dryer and ran a blade down the edge to separate split the adhesive strips.
I will note that there are 2 ribbon cables that attach to the screen; these will most likely be damaged by the blade splitting the adhesive. Luckily, the new digitizer I ordered includes the cables attached to the screen.

The only thing I have left to do is remove the old adhesive from the edges of the TF101 internals and find a new solution. I was thinking good ol' trusty 3m double sided adhesive, but those are a little too think for this application.
I will update when I receive everything and find a good adhesive solution.
EDITS:
Got the lcd panel away from the transformer inners
Didn't realize how easy it was to get the adhesive off of the transformer. Peeled off like tape.
OEM Screen info
And the video connectors
LCD Screen
Tablet Video connection
All I got for now until new parts arrive. Looking at getting this case
Thanks for sharing this info and the links. I'm interested in knowing what
you decide to use for the adhesive. I like the 2mil 3M adhesive when I fix
phones, why is it not good for the TF? Cheers.

I was referencing household 3m adhesive tape, the thicker stuff. 2mm 3M would work. I have read a few different places that 3mm was being used. I want to be sure exactly what is really used before I seal everything back together.
I will say, Asus didn't do a very good job at sealing the screen. To all that have dust underneath the digitizer, there are gaps at all 4 corners where dust could enter into the housing. The adhesive tape used wasn't stretched to each corner all the way allowing 4 paths. NOT GOOD!

Poor Pads, what did you do to them, nice guide tough
Is the replacement LCD Screen also Gorilla Glass?
HI everyone
My Asus Transformer TF101 also had crash lately. Luckily I had a screen protector on (not knowing/researching that Gorilla Glass is hard to scratch) and the screen protector is pretty much holding the glass from falling out of place. It's cracked in many pieces.
Anyways, I want to replace it. I've been reading and reading but I can't find a post that tell us what type of LCD screen the replacements are. It looks like a lot of vendors are carrying them but what I want to know is; are the replacement LCD + digitizer's (seen on such places as ebay and amazon) Gorilla Glass materials or are they the same materials used on similar laptops?
I would love Gorilla Glass again so I don't have to put a screen protector on this time. Any help please?

Take a screenshot. Email it to another device.
Does it look normal? If yes, then it is a hardware issue. If it looks the same as the screen, it is a software issue.

Bizarre. It went back to normal. I did not do anything to it not even charge it and it seems to be fine now.
Fingers crossed.

I have the same issue with mine when my brother borrowed it and he doesn't know what happened. I accidentally dropped it onto my couch and it went away (the screen's color is normal) and then it came back again after I shook it. I think something is lose and I have it opened up right now but I don't know where or what to look for.
---EDIT---
I think I solved the problem. The connector circled in the picture was loose so I clicked it back into place (I can't share a picture yet because of my noob status). The connector is on the lower right corner just below the battery. The problem seems have gone away for now (keeping my fingers crossed).
Now I seem to have an issue with the keyboard dock. The key with the underscore doesn't work.

So my Transformer's screen has been broken for quite some time, and with me acquiring a Galaxy Note, I have really not paid any attention to my TF101. My digitizer wasn't damaged, only the screen.
The problem here is the only way to get the Digitizer off, you are going to crack it, plain and simple. I didn't mind spending the $ on a new LCD and digitizer so I placed the order earlier today.
