Can I replace the Galaxy S8 finger print sensor or would it void the Knox security on the phone? Thanks!
how come the part shown has a straight flex but the button being removed has a semi s shape
Why is the part for $19.99 shown with a straight flex but the part being removed has an S shaped flex. Are they interchangeable?
Hi Frank! Our part happens to have a differently shaped cable, but is completely compatible with the Galaxy S8. Because we can’t get parts straight from Samsung, there are sometimes minor differences that don’t affect the function of the part.
