Does the iPhone 5 use the same display screen for all carrier models?

I would like to know if all of the carriers (AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, etc.) iPhones use the same display screen (interchangeable). I know the radios inside are different but just want to se if I could pull a screen off of a Verizon iPhone and put it on a AT&T iPhone.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Yes, identical modules are used. There are different models of iPhone 5, A1428, A1429 and A1442. A1442 is just a software reconfigured A1429. A 1428 uses different hardware. Maybe different back case and lightning connector flex and a few PA/ filter modules on the board. But everything else stay the same

Hope it helps
