The last thing that you want to think about when you are in the middle of dealing with your busy life is a cracked or broken Galaxy S7. Our lives are far too fast paced for us to take time out to deal with our phone slipping out of our grip and shattering on the sidewalk, let alone think about how to get it fixed. Thankfully, the experts at CPR have created this handy Samsung Galaxy S7 screen replacement guide to help you stop worrying about your phone and find a solution.
While many Samsung phone reviews suggest the Galaxy S7 is one of Samsung’s best smartphones, there are still some common issues with the device’s screen. One slightly irritating common issue is the screen having varying tints across the display. Some areas toward the bottom of the screen may be slightly darker, or other places will have a slight pink, yellow, or green tint.
Another common problem is the screen going totally black and becoming unresponsive to touch. While some of the buttons may work and lights may come on, the screen stays black and will not turn back on without a restart.
Sometimes, your Galaxy S7’s screen may freeze and become unresponsive. A frozen screen could be due to a high volume of apps being open all at once, a non-mobile friendly web page having too much on it, an infected app being downloaded onto the phone, a malfunctioning screen, a cracked screen, or a variety of other things. Whatever the cause, having a frozen screen is a major annoyance but we can give you some solutions to fix it.
Frequently, a frozen screen simply calls for a soft reboot of your Samsung Galaxy S7. To do this, simply press down the power button and the volume down button at the same time and hold until the phone vibrates, turns off, and reboots. This usually takes about 7 to 8 seconds.
If this doesn’t work or if you have a cracked screen, it may be time for a professional to evaluate your device to see if you need a screen replacement for you Galaxy S7.
Galaxy S7 users have actually reported multiple cases where the phone has started to reboot like normal, and then the screen has gone completely black. Some of the lights may function, and the sound may still work, but the screen remains black and totally unresponsive. While it is not entirely clear why this happens, a lot of the blame has been attributed to software malfunctions, but it is possible that other issues are the cause of the ‘black screen of death.’ There are, fortunately, two different things to try that can fix the problem.
You can reboot the phone in recovery mode by powering the Galaxy S7 off, pressing and holding down the power button and volume down button, waiting for the Android System Recovery screen, use the volume buttons to select “wipe cache partition,” and then the phone will reboot.
If that doesn’t work, you can try a factory reset. This will wipe all of your data and restore your S7 to factory settings, so this should be your last resort. You activate the factory reset by turning off the device, holding down the power button and the volume down button, using the volume keys to navigate the Android System Recovery screen, selecting “Wipe data/factory reset,” and confirming. Then your phone should reboot normally.
If the cache wipe does not work and you don’t want to wipe the phone, it may be time to bring your phone to a professional for evaluation.
While frozen screens and black screens have workarounds, cracked or shattered screens usually require a more concrete fix. Accidents happen but cracked and shattered screens can be dangerous to carry around and use. Additionally, the inner workings of your phone can sometimes be damaged as a result of the cracked screen. If you have a cracked Galaxy S7 screen, replacement is your best options. This way the screen can be fully replaced so you don’t risk glass in your fingers and more damage to the device.
Costs vary for Galaxy S7 screen replacement, but you do have a variety of options. It can get a little expensive, but thankfully you do have your pick of services.
If your S7 is still relatively new and under the manufacturer’s warranty, that’s the first place to look. A replacement from the manufacturer will guarantee that your warranty stays enact and that your screen will be completely repaired, or your device replaced, but it is going to cost you about $270 and one or two days without your phone.
If you purchased the Samsung Protection Plan, like AppleCare but for your Galaxy phone, your cracked screen in covered. The Samsung Protection Plan will cost you between $99 and $129 for two years of protection and then if you need your Galaxy S7 screen replaced, you’ll just pay a $79 deductible. This brings the repair of your Samsung Galaxy S7 screen to about $208.
If you don’t have the Samsung Protection Plan and your warranty is up, you can go to a third party vendor for a Galaxy S7 screen replacement. Quite a few of these places like small local stores and chains like Batteries Plus Bulbs, offer Samsung screen replacements that can run from $100 to $250 and their policies and services can be spotty.
