How to handle the Polarizer Film during LCD Refurbish?

Posted by MichealH Alexander on September 11th, 2019

Where is the polarizer film?

  • The polarizer film is under digitizer for iPhone 4/4s
  • The polarizer film is under front glass lens for iPhone 5/5s/5c/6/6 plus

When do I should replace the polarizer film?

a. For iPhone 4/4s, if the digitizer is broken, then you need to replace the polarizer film together, because when you remove the digitizer and front glass from the LCD, it is difficult to keep the polarizer film leave on the LCD, usually it is removed together with digitizer. In another word, if the digitizer is working and just the front glass is broken, usually you only need to replace the front glass, and just use the OCA film to stick the front glass on the digitizer, don't need to use polarizer film in this case.

 b. For iPhone 5/5s/5c/6/6 plus, usually it is difficult to keep the polarizer film leave on the LCD when you remove the broken front glass, so you need to put a new polarizer film before you put the new front glass on the LCD.

 c. For Samsung phone, usually it is easy to remove the OCA glue manually, that means the polarizer film can be kept well on the LCD after you remove the OCA glue, then you don't need to replace the polarizer film, but please don't to use the blade or glue remover machine for removing OCA on Samsung LCD, because the polarizer film will be easy damaged by the blade or glue remover machine.

 If the polarizer film is not working, you need to replace it, and also need to remove the polarizer film and OCA by glue remover machine.
