i9505 Parts for i545 Build

Hey guys I don't know if anything like this has been posted yet but the search bar turned me no results. Does anyone know if parts (particularly the LCD/Digitizer frame and bezel) are cross compatible across all models? I found a part for the i9505 but it says nothing about fitment for my i545 model from Verizon.

Thanks

Nope. Subtle differences in the configurations. How do I know? I tried it.

If it is the glass only then yes. This is Extremely difficult to change without damaging the digitizer though.

well thank you for keeping me from wasting $60 haha. I know replacing just the glass is quite the pain (tried before) I was just trying to save myself from a $90+ bill for a new frame assembly vs the $60 i9505 variant. Thanks for the info though, looks like it's time to resurrect the S3 build...

Have you looked in the Swappa Boneyard? Unfortunately a used intact display assembly is hard to come by at a discount price. Because people break them........a lot.......supply and demand raises the price.

I'll have to check it out, I think I'm going to try and replace the motherboard on an S3 (cheaper). The power button is ridiculously sensitive but still has a definitive *click*
