Aura HD replacement screen confusion, KBN204B ED068TG1

terrox · 08-20-2018, 09:43 PM

I'm trying to find the right part to replace a cracked screen for my Kobo Aura HD kbn204b fcc id: noikbn204b

I think the original part is ED068TG1, but there seem to be both Capacitive and Resistance screens for this model, is that right or maybe a typo? Also saw a Piezoelectric screen.

See https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale...hText=ED068TG1

Do the Brand Names matter or are they just the reseller? I can't quite understand why there would be different factories manufacturing the same screen. BUBPPOO, universal, SMITATECH

Also read that I can use the Aura H20 part ED068OG1, but does that work without driver changes and is it better or worse?

So I bought a ED068TG1(LF) for AU$ 53.65(inc GST) but the original screen in my device was a ED68OG1(LF)-00 LES68D3001(C172)
Everything works now and it fit perfectly so it doesn't seem to matter?
