So I stepped on my Galaxy Tab S2 (9.7) while it was facing screen down on my bedroom floor and I saw a spiral crack that wasn’t visible on the screen glass itself, but rather on a layer beneath the glass. I didn’t think much of it initially, because the screen functioned perfectly and the crack while large was only noticeable under direct light. Later that day I turned on the tablet and the entire screen had a bluish film over it and the tablet was having difficulty registering touches (I was however able to enter my pin after multiple tries to unlock the device). From the little knowledge I have regarding the internals of phones/tablets I believe I have a broken digitizer. I don’t think the screen is damaged because directly after I stepped on it the entire screen functioned flawlessly. So, is it possible to buy just this digitizer assembly independent of the screen, and is it replaceable? Or is more than just the digitizer damaged?
Hello, in this case, proceed with following iFixit guide. If you know the part number, search for spare LCD on the eBay, there are a low of different LCDs. But If you would like, you can search for parts on the rounded.com and order what you want.
You need to replace your screen and digitizer.
