Without knowing which specific glass you bought, if it says it's for the S4 then I guess it would fit. If you are going to replace it yourself be sure to get the tool kit to install it.
I bought replacement glass for my Galaxy Tab 2 on Amazon and it worked out great.

Yeah I just bought from samsung and I think it will fit, can u show me the best method to do it? Cuz i dont want to damage the lcd

I wouldn't use any other type of tape, it's a tight fit and it might not sit properly.

Okey, dude now I dont have any doubts!
Thanks A LOT

I would advise NOT to do a glass screen only replacement since it is very easy to mess up the LCD.
I would buy a whole LCD/frame assembly for 100-140 bux on eBay and swap everything over. Then sell your cracked screen with working lcd for around 50-70 bux on eBay.

Cracked screen

After having my new phone less than 10 minutes I managed to drop it and the outer screen is smashed cracked. Is there any where someone can recommend that sell spares? The phone still functions but I need it fixed

I the best price i have seen for a Screen without the bumper is 249 300+ with the bumper around the screen.
its not really hard to change out either. Changing just the bumper is harder than changing just the screen, especially if the other screen is cracked and you are not trying to save it.
parts are out there though.
i have dropped mine 7 times now, and plan on throwing it against the wall here in about a month and getting square trade to give me another device, or the replacement cost.

Ha ha, well stupidity is one thing I just can't tolerate, if people choose not to educate themselves and instead insist in posting stupid stuff on xda I'm forced to say something. Stupidity is a choice!
But a straight up accident of this magnitude after only 10 mins of having the phone is no laughing matter, accidents happen and in this case I feel for the guy.

I have got the answer for you, this is what you must do,
1. Buy an S3 display + digitizer from ebay:
2. Follow this video tutorial:

Display Scratch

Hey guys,
I have the S3 now for about 3 weeks, and I'm realizing that I've got a big scratch on the display, you can just feel it with your finger nails, but I think it's about 1, 5mm deep, and on the side a few little scratches. Do you have scratches either? How can I remove them without investing much money? Thx for answers! )
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
I do, but they're too small to notice. You can't remove them.
PS You have no idea what you're talking about when you say 1.5mm...That's HUGE
Then 0, 5mm
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
maybe, probably less.
So yeah, you can't remove them
You cannot remove them but you can prevent them. Invest 10$ and purchase a really good screen guard..
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
A screen guard may well cover and hide your scratch .

Can you recommend a screen guard ?

for once i find something that was posted the same day and I miss out
oh well
where did you find out about this?

Just how water resistant is this thing?

So I think I'm going to turn over a new leaf and try to keep a phone for at least a year. Well doing so will require an otter box or similar. The problem here is wireless charging. If it doesnt charge I'm going to have to use the plug. I know first world problems If I take that annoying flap off before it snaps off will the USB port still resist water?
Sent from my SM-G900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
If you have the flap off and the stock Samsung charger isn't in it, it is not resistant to water.

The wireless covers are already available on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Wireless-Charging-Cover-Galaxy/dp/B00ITI24EK/
Although, they really don't seem all too different than the standalone wireless charging receivers which can be had for a third of the price: http://www.amazon.com/JIAKE-Wireless-Charger-Receiver-Charging/dp/B00JO1TLJW/

I've had my eyes on a similar product and it seems they aren't thin enough to seal the cover on. The only review of this one says he thinks its sealed so I'll keep my eye on that one for more reviews.

If I understood correctly we should just need to order an international backplate with 4 pins instead of 2.

To enable Qi charging on our devices with the Circle case it is my understanding we need the international backplate. I may be confused tho and it may be NFC+ we need the international back for.
That makes sense as the thread I read was talking about the carrier on carrying no Qi enabled cases. Which makes sense if our devices don't have wireless charging backs.

I saw the person that posted about that, but it ended up that he didn't have the right case base on what Verizon told me. I guess we will just have to wait and see. I would be okay with a Qi charging back too.
VZW would do something like buy rights to put the only Qi backs on their G3s
