Strengthened glass substrates with glass frits and methods for forming the same are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a method for forming a glass frit on a glass substrate may include providing a glass substrate comprising a compressive stress layer extending from a surface of the glass substrate into a thickness of the glass substrate, the compressive stress having a depth of layer DOL and an initial compressive stress CSi. A glass frit composition may be deposited on at least a portion of the surface of the glass substrate. Thereafter, the glass substrate and the glass frit composition are heated in a furnace to sinter the glass frit composition and bond the glass frit composition to the glass substrate, wherein, after heating, the glass substrate has a fired compressive stress CSf which is greater than or equal to 0.70*CSi.
