Did you broke your Samsung Galaxy S4 LCD Screen and want to replace a new one? Before replacing the screen, you should know the Difference between Samsung Galaxy S4 i9500 i9505 i337 M919 L720 i545 LCD Screen. Otherwise, you may buy a wrong item.
Samsung Galaxy S4 LCD Screen consists of LCD Display and Touch Screen, the Front Frame is optional. However, it is the frame that makes i9500 i9505 i337 M919 L720 and i545 LCD Screen different. This means the LCD Display and touch screen are both compatible for all these Galaxy S4 models. The only difference is the front frame and home flex cable.
What is a front frame ? The front frame is a plastic bezel with silver surrounding, it is used to support the lcd screen. Just see your screen, you will see the silver surrounding at the edge. The internal structure of the front frame is different, it decides whether the lcd screen can be installed on the phone or not, so the front frame decides its compatibility.
Here below is the compatibility of Samsung Galaxy S4 LCD Screen (With Frame):
- GT-i9500 (International Version) - Not Compatible with other models
- GT-i9505 (International Version) - Compatible with Sprint SPH-L720T (Not L720)
- SCH-I545 (Verizon) - Compatible with SPH-L720 (Sprint) and SCH-R970 (U.S. Cellular)
- SGH-I337 (AT&T)- Compatible with SGH-M919 (T-Mobile)
How to recognize them? Just see above picture, you can see the green square marked the number, such as i9500, i9505. These numbers on the frame can easily tell you whether the screen are compatible or not. But the number M919 is not printed on the frame, we do not know why, in fact, the i337 lcd screen is totally compatible with M919. And i9505 is compatible with Sprint SPH-L720T, the frame was not printed any L720T number, but they are the same.
Important notice: Sprint SPH-L720T is different with L720, although there is only a number 'T' different, but they are 2 different models. L720 is compatible i545 and R970 with long home flex cable as you can see in the picture. But L720T is only compatible with i9505, and home button flex cable is short.
If you want to replace your broken screen, you'd better purchase a Samsung Galaxy S4 LCD Screen with Frame Assembly, it will be much easier for you to install.

How to know your phone model ?
Some people don't know their own phone model. There is an easy way to spot your model - you just need tear down the battery, you will see a white sticker on the plastic frame. On the sticker, it marked your phone model.
By the way, if your Samsung Galaxy S4 front glass is broken, but the touch is sensitive and lcd shows image, you can just replace the front single glass, it will save you much money. But it is a very tough job, if you are not a professional repair technician, we still suggest you buy a complete lcd screen with front frame to replace your broken screen, it will save you much time and no risks.

Hi, you can take out the LCD from i9500, take out the frame from L720, buy a new top glass, rebuild the 3 parts to a complete part. But it is a tough job to get it done...

"GT-i9500 (International Version) - Not Compatible with other models"
The i9500 and i337/M919 replacement parts are identical.
Hi, thanks for your info. What we talk about here is the - LCD Screen Digitizer. We did not say other parts.
So all the models of samsungs listed above are the same with regards to lcd+touch digitizer, just different in frame and home flex? So I had a 1337m I can replace it with i9500 lcd and keep the same 1337m frame? Or will it not fit into the 1337m frame? And visversa? Sorry if you alrdy answers the question above.
Hello, your phone model is i337m, it is belong to Canada Network, not a US phone. We don't know if the frame and home flex of i337m (Canada phone) is the same with US i337. The only thing we can confirm is - the lcd display and touch glass is the same.

Hi, Galaxy S4 is a general name. S4 Verizon is a detailed name. Galaxy S4 divides many different models - Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint etc, these carriers used a number like i337 or i545 to make them different in order to avoid confusion.

Hi, I have a Samsung s4 from AT&T. LCD screen shattered and before I read a lot into it, I ordered a replacement screen from Amazon. I have a i337. the one I ordered is
Original Samsung Galaxy S4 IV LCD Display & Touch Screen Digitizer Assembly BLACK (With Frame) For CDMA Models - Verizon I545 - Sprint L720 L720T - US Cellular R970 - Cricket R970C
IS this compatible? Or did I just jank myself and need to order another LCD Screen?
Hi, Your phone model is AT&T Galaxy S4 i337, right ?
You bought Wrong item on Amazon ! CDMA Models - Verizon I545 - Sprint L720 L720T - US Cellular R970 are NOT compatible with i337.
You can cancel the order. If they already shipped, you have to wait the package, and return it. Then, buy a correct model screen.
