Cracked Phone Screen Causes

There are a number of ways you can damage your phone’s screen, no matter how careful you are:

  • It was dropped on a hard surface.
  • Sitting with your phone in your back pocket.
  • Collide with objects while your phone is in your pocket or purse.
  • Using something other than a pen to write.

How to fix a broken smartphone screen

  • Use packing tape. Cover the tears with a small piece of tape.
  • Cut the tape off with an X-Acto knife if the damage is on the side of the phone.
  • Use super glue.
  • Small cracks can be sealed with cyanoacrylate glue, also called superglue. Use as little glue as possible and gently wipe off excess glue with a cotton swab or cloth.
  • If the touchscreen still works, you can replace the glass yourself for about $10-$20.
  • The tools you need vary depending on the phone type.
  • Request a repair from the manufacturer.
  • If your phone is still under warranty, the manufacturer can replace it for free.
  • Even if it’s expired, the manufacturer may be willing to repair it for a fee.
  • Most manufacturer warranties do not cover accidental damage, but you can purchase secondary inserts that do.
  • Ask your wireless service provider to fix the problem.
  • Customers of your wireless carrier may be eligible for discounted phone repair services.
  • For assistance, contact customer service or visit a nearby store.
  • Take it to a mechanic. Replacing the screen can cost anywhere from $50 to $200 depending on the model of your device.
  • If the touchscreen functionality is broken, an additional fee will be charged.
  • Exchange your phone. If an upgrade is due, you might as well sell your broken device and use the proceeds to buy a new one. Sites like uSell and Glyde will buy your broken phone for about half what you paid for it.
  • There are also websites dedicated to selling used iPhones.
