Samsung Galaxy S5 Cracked+Water Damaged Screen

[BB21999]

So about two months ago my phone screen cracked in the upper right corner. About a month and a half ago water and moisture started to get in. Now its not like I was submerging my phone into water but using it in rain, putting it face down on the sink counter etc. Now does anybody have advice on what to do to fix my phone without taking it to get replaced and paying a ridiculous amount of money? Would any screen fixing kiosk at the mall do? Would love some replies! Thanks

Welcome to Android Central! It depends on how much you want to trust yourself to do the repair yourself--there are probably a number of DIY videos on YouTube. If you'd rather take to someone to repair, I'd do some research on Yelp or some similar site to find a good repair shop near you. This is the kind of thing I'd rather pay a little more in order to ensure a good quality job, rather than save a few bucks and have more problems down the road.

Thank you so much. But if you were to think of a price how much would we be talking? Depending on the price would it be more benficial just to upgrade?

I think prices range from $100 to $200 for screen replacements, but I haven't researched it in depth.

If you are familiar with tearing down Samsung galaxy s5 then you can order a screen replacement from hcqs.cc and repair the screen by yourself. That will save you much money.
