The screen is broken or remains black.
With this detailed step-by-step guide, you can easily replace your Galaxy Note 9 display at home.
A replacement is necessary when the glass is shattered, the touchscreen does not respond to touch anymore, or the display remains black or flickers. During this repair, we replace the entire display unit including the frame, not just the broken screen. You may have to take some small parts from the old display unit, depending on how the new spare part is equipped.
The repair is a bit difficult as the Galaxy Note 9 has to be opened via the glass backcover. Removing the back cover is a somewhat more diffucult procedure, so plan enough time for it.
Do a backup before the repair, use a clean work surface and reserve enough time. If you are stuck at any point, just contact our live chat or write a comment on the corresponding step.
