I dropped my tablet corner first and the lower left corner smashed and the corner of the glass broke in lots of pieces
now my screen has 2-3 big cracks over it. Does anyone know where I can get it repaired in Asia or if in the US who can I contact for pick up, estimates and other stuff.
Go to Sony website to check out local Song Corp in Asia for services.
I asked our sony service centre in saudi arabia .a screen replacment costs about thesame price of a new tablet !
But may be cost varies from a country to another.
If you can't fix it, Id get a galaxy tab or galaxy note 10.1. Im dissapointed in my Sony Tablet. The only feature I lack on other tablets is the IR remote, which I sadly can't use as I don't have anything that uses it.

How do you not own anything that uses IR? I find that impossible, how you can have a tablet but not a TV as all TVs use IR...

The sony service center in my area doesnt repair tablets does the screen replacement include labor?
If you have replaced your screen already then this is not nessasary but here is my plan for if my screen will crack:
Just send it back with the message that you had the little black cord attached on it, the one that comes with the tablet, and tell them that your cord snapped
just like that, nothing you can do about it you could give it a try right?

lol that's why honest people with genuine faults have such a hard time getting warranty claims honored ^^

OK here is my problem questions will follow.
i purchased my gtab 10.1 in usa.moved to philippines.screen started getting fuzzy then blacking out now its totally out. samsung refuses to repair it cause they don't do international warranty.then i went to samsung office here in philippines asked them about repairing my tablet.i was told they wont order or repair my unit cause its not from here and against there laws.so now im sitting here with a tablet that needs 2 parts.(1) lcd screen(2) lcd screen cable (mine is broken).i have looked on ebay none of the lcd screens come with the cable. gotta love samsung and how they do their customers. i dont even have a way to use ebay now cause i no longer have a bank account in usa or a place to send anything to. so does anyone know where or how i might be able to aquire spare parts for this thing?
Why is it Samsung's fault you broke the screen? And why is it their fault you made the choice to buy a tablet in one country when you lived in another? I don't see that they did anything wrong, tbh.

well for one you dont know all the info. you shouldnt be so quick to judge .im american from usa which i purchased my tab from usa. then after purchasing my tab i ended up moving.and what they do wrong is not support their products internationaly. also i did not break my screen. the lcd cable is what broke. the screen went bad before the cable broke so therefore samsung gave me a faulty unit. so yes i have every reason to complain about samsung and there support and product. so please read and understand before judging others. im asking if anyone knows where i might find parts im not asking for others to look for faults or degrading with remarks.

Posting this rant here isn't going to make samsung fix your tab.
Do you have a family member back in the states you can send your tab to and get them to send it to samsung to get repaired?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
wasnt posted as a rant only trying to explain my situation.i already said what i wanted and needed to samsung . anyway i do have family there but by the time i send this to them and they send it in my warranty will be over. so i figured i would just try to find the parts i need and get it fixed here out of pocket.
So I have had my I9300 GS3 since launch and the other day I cracked my screen.
Now I need to get it fixed, I know that the whole unit AMOLED and digitizer needs to be replaced.
I could probably do it myself if the savings will be a lot but I'm looking for all options and Samsung US won't touch it apparently because its not a US model.
So anyway know of a way to get Samsung US to fix it or where Is a good place I could send it or get a display for it?
Anyone have any ideas?
Use your warranty it wont cost a dime
EDIT:
oh wait.. you cracked it.. mmmm.. you may try some low-end stores maybe in malls just to be sure. You could also do it yourself, there are lots of how-to's in youtube
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
if you're in the US and you have the i9300, then you have 2 choices:
1) DIY. buy the parts from ebay and follow instructions online..
2) Contact the Samsung on the country your phone is registered to. The one I had was register to the UK and they simply said that I'll have to contact their special service center there, arrange the case number with them, then send it to them as well as providing return postage. Then when they receive it, it will take up to 28 days to fix your phone + potential costs for repairs because you are physically not in their region. Any attempt to contact Samsung USA will get the agents telling you that they only service american models and that, I quote, their technicians do not have the knowledge or skill or parts to repair the i9300.
This is my personal experience with the incompetence of Samsung USA.

Not a common problem, but why didn't you just exchange it where you bought it from if it was brand new?
A more common problem is dust in the FFC and proximity sensor, though.

Because I bought if of someone they had it on contract and I think they bought it from someone prior to me so I am third owner it would be a nightwear trying to sort it out that way so this was the only way the phone is brand new.I hope I get it back soon it's a lovely phone in yellow.
Well I contacted them today via chat and the agent said my handset has been swapped for a new one and should be back this week it was unrepairable beyond economical repair.The phone itself was only 5days old what could of happened to it?I was going to claim the free wireless charger but if the details have changed can I still get it?
The free charger is only available or I should say was only available to AT&T customers only. That deal is now over. Also unless you bought it straight from AT&T then good luck on getting as it was not Nokia that was doing the special.
That's strange because I am in uk and on my box it clearly says offer is still valid for uk customers I have a unique code on my box.

I ****ed up with a custom rom and the screen is bricked (touchpad won't work at all no matter what rom I install).
I bought the phone during a trip to China, but I live in France right now and I would like to pay for a new motherboard.
On the Samsung France website, it says they don't accept phones bought outside Europe for warranty. I don't have a warranty so, I don't really care. I just want to pay for a new motherboard and get this damn phone fixed.
Is it possible in your opinion ? Thank you very much for your insight!

if it is not a chinese copied GS3, you have the chance of getting a new mother board. but if it is, just buy a genuine GS3.

It definitely isn't a fake GS3, double checked that before buying!
However they should do a paid for repair no problem if not then use another repair centre .

Why do u want to replace yr mobo when yr digitizer(touchscreen) is not working??? The touch screen comes together with the LCD and the frame as well its easy to change makes yr phone brand new again I changed mine. Don't try to just replace the glass although some has succeeded albeit a small percentage. Goodluck

Yeah well, I'll give it to Samsung and get it repaired so, I don't know too much about the details. If it's the screen then perfect!
I bought my S6 Edge for ATT back in April. I was plagued with the Purple Dots on the front camera. It was bad, literally 1/4 of the screen bad and they kept multiplying. I sent mine in recently. How long was your turn around time? Did the fix your phone, give you a new one, or refurbished. My only back up phone is my HTC Magic from New Zealand I bought when I lived there. Using this phone again makes me realize how far we come
yes..but in Germany.. direct to Samsung repair..means not to the provider..shipped back 6 days later..with online check what they did.. was very satisfied
