Samsung A8 screen
We recently have available the screen for the Samsung A8 from the year 2018. With this new replacement screen, you can replace the one that is broken. In fact, if you are here it is very likely that your screen is broken or about to break.
You may wonder what exactly a complete screen is and to answer that question, here are the elements that make it up:
• An LCD.
• A touch screen.
• An integrated connection flex.
• An image controller.
• A backlight.
Why is this screen better than separate parts? Because, for example, separating the touch screen from the LCD is a complex task that requires machinery and can easily end up damaging the LCD. Peeling one from the other is difficult to do without causing further damage. That's why we do not advise any particular customer to perform this operation.
It is also practically impossible to change or repair the screen's connection flex. It is not even within the reach of official technical services. Just for these two reasons, this screen is worth more.
How do you change the Samsung A8 2018 screen?
When it comes to changing the Samsung A8 screen, the task is not complicated. It is a standard Samsung phone and you simply have to follow some basic rules to be successful:
- Turn off the phone before starting. This is very important because if it is not turned off, the touch screen can be damaged when connecting it.
- Always use the tools we send you for free (if you already have professional tools then you can ignore this point).
- When you apply heat with a hair dryer or a heat gun (the gun with the maximum temperature at 120º), do not get closer than 5cm to the screen and do not stay more than 2 seconds in the same spot.
- Peel off the sides one by one and use the picks we send you to properly detach it.
- Always leave the center for last and detach it using the suction cup.
- Remember that you are removing the screen that is broken, if it breaks a little more it is not so important.
- Carefully disconnect the flex from the motherboard and connect the new screen also carefully.
- Try not to touch the flex contacts with your fingers or with metallic materials, they are very delicate.
- That's it, with these simple tips it will be enough to prevent further damage.
Samsung's advice for their screens
From Samsung, they are reluctant to give advice, as one of the brand's sources of income is the repair of their mobile phones. In fact, the profit from repair is higher than the sale of a mobile phone (when they are out of warranty, of course). But we want you to have a couple of essential tips to ensure the life of your Samsung A8:
• Always protect the front with a screen protector. Yes, it must be specific for Samsung A8. That way it will properly protect the edges.
• Although it may seem obvious, putting a case on it is one of the smartest actions you can take to prevent your phone from breaking. Phones are very resistant in their back and side parts, but the screen is terribly delicate.
• For this reason, when choosing a case, look for one that also covers the screen. If you don't like it to cover, no problem, do something else: make sure it protrudes slightly on the side edges. That way, if it falls, it won't damage the screen.
Price of the Samsung A8 screen
The price of this screen is perfectly described at the top of the page. It is always up to date (except for typographical or computer errors - but this is very rare). Also, our price always includes VAT, so you won't have to complicate your life calculating taxes.
How do we ship Samsung screens?
Once you place an order at iLevante, we take care of all the management with maximum speed. Our preparation procedure is meticulous and delicate, as much or more than the products we are dealing with.
First of all, we add a set of screwdrivers, suction cup, picks, and levers. We add all this to you for free.
Secondly, if we have it available at that moment, we also send a screen protector. Sometimes manufacturers send it to us and if we have it here, we will add it to you for free.
Finally, when it comes to packing the screen for shipping, it always goes inside a shock-absorbent soft protector (made of white cork) and in turn inside a box. Finally, we put it in a shipping bag in which we inflate air so that it cannot suffer any damage during transport.
And how do I know if my screen is broken?
The diagnosis of broken screens is a job that is mainly done in technical services. Unless your screen is obviously broken and visible, in these places they can diagnose if what is broken is a different piece and that's why the screen does not work. However, there are some cases where it is not so clear and here we help you to diagnose the screen breakage of a Samsung A8 (be careful, from 2018):
- Did it fall into water? If so, first make sure that the phone is still working. If what appears are moisture stains on the screen, wait for them to go away. But if the screen starts to whiten, it will stop working in a few days. You can fix it by buying this screen. Let a few days pass, because if the water reaches the motherboard, there will be no way to fix it. The charger could also be damaged, so let it dry.
- If it has been hit and the screen has broken, there is no more diagnosis to do. It needs to be repaired.
- If vertical or horizontal colored stripes, white or black, have appeared, it means that the LCD has been damaged or that the flex cable has some crack. Unfortunately, the screen must be completely changed.
- If some area of the screen does not respond well or is too hard, try uninstalling the applications you have installed recently. Also try restarting the phone. If all that fails, the entire screen needs to be changed.
These are the most common cases and we present them here so you can fix your Samsung mobile yourself.
