Go to Sprint and have them do it. It's $35 if you are outside of warranty and have no insurance or coverage. I've had to do it twice now.

I agree unless you want the learning experience. Personally I just want mine to work, so I took mine in too. I've heard digitizers on the 3d are harder than other phones. In fact, they actually replaced my whole screen when my digitizer was broken.
I am in Turkey and in Turkey HTC hasnt a proper service network
i have to fix it on my own
so i wonder whether those digitizers are ok or not
I did mine and also an incredible if you are fairly handy and have lots of patience you can do it. there are a lot of videos on youtube watch them a few times and see if it looks like something you can do oh and i got mine from ebay it works fine

Something unfortunate happened this morning and my phone just slipped from the pocket of my jacket to the street and a car has passed over it two seconds after that just in front of my eyes.
I felt like the car passed over me instead! Luckily though, the phone was upside down and was not brutally damaged; only some bruises on the screen and the housing.
Although the LCD and the phone still works 80%, of course it is not usable under normal conditions. It misses a lot of touches. I am attaching two pictures of the phone that I took by my old TYTN II.
Now therefore I need housing and LCD screen. Although I have seen some housings on ebay; I could not find any screen.
Any ideas of whereabout?
Regards,
For a new screen, you have to get it repaired. You can't do it yourself...
Unless you are really good with eletronics. But the screens aren't available on the market.
I live in Turkey and bought the device from UK via a friend, who brought it here. I will be very hard again to send it UK and give it to customer service and get back to Turkey. I am not talking about shipping but very much worried about customs behavior in Turkey. It's a high possibility that they will treat the device as a "new" after repair and ask for very high custom tax.
Anyway, I have replaced housing and lcd screen before of my TYTN II with various parts I have bought from Ebay. Of course I do not do it myself; instead I give the device to a local mobile phone repair shop in Ankara; the people there are highly experienced in changing parts of all kinds of mobile phones; so it won't be a big problem for me if I can get a new screen somehow
Thanks for advice though.
Hi all,
After a long e-mail traffic via many ebay sellers I think I found what I am looking for; a seller has given me this address: http://www.shope2.com/Product.php?product_id=51490
Can anyone just check that if this is the correct part?
Regards.
I think I weep'd a little when I seen your pics. Sorry to see that happen to you. I think I would have cried like a baby if that were to happen to my Touch Pro2.
Good luck with it. Hope everything works out for you.
I have no choice but to
cry.
thats the reason now i got insurance on my phone :
6 euros / month against break, thief, oxydation etc...
Good thing is, when the TP2 wont be sold anymore, i can just "break" mine , and get the new version (TP3 ? or TP2-like) at no cost
Its an investment, but on the long time, its the best choice with those very expensive phones.

that is almost as painful as getting hit in the groin..
Yes it has a valid warranty in UK; I did not want to void it and I have contacted customer support. They requested me to hand over the phone to "HTC Europe Co. Ltd. Communication House, Presley Way, Crownhill, Milton Keynes, MK80ES" and I gave it to a friend who lives in London; I'll see how much they will charge it for me; until then I am still using my old friend TYTN II
Regards,
OUCH! My heart feels sore for you my friend. Surely there must a registered HTC store in your country that you can get the screen replaced at?
I wouldn't want to try and replace it yourself or going to anyone who isn't a registered technician
You're phone actually survived getting run over by a car??
That's crazy!
I could imagine my Kaiser surviving that, but then you could knock someone out with that! I thought the TP2 wasn't any where near as well built a device.
Really sorry it's happened though, that sucks Hope you get it sorted for a reasonable price!

Unfortunately, i dont know about insurance in the US...
In France at least, most Telecom companies offer insurance as an option.
Well, lastweek i dropped my phone and the glass screen was broken, i have to spend 90USD for repair service.
i'm from Singapore
there are deep scratches on my screen (LCD is working) and i was quoted SGD$40+ for replacing the glass screen
USD$1 = SGD$1.44

How broke is it? If its just unresponsive then take it to the shop and they will send it away. If its smashed then your insurance will cover it. How do they know when it happened?
My touch screen went and I took it to Vodafone who in turn sent it to HTC and they couldn't fix it so they sent me a new phone. You are on a contract and you pay insurance. They have to help you. It's in your contract.
well the phone works and i can see everything on the screen but i cant do anything cuz touch doesnt work. my contract is with t-mobile and i went to the shop today and they said it might cost me around £120. my insurance company already rejected the claim cuz apparently they state in their terms and conditions that i had to report it within 24hours.
i wish if there is a shop where i can give them the touch screen and they can fit it for me

How long have you had the phone? Mine was a year old when I took it in. Go to another t mobile store give it to them, tell them you don't know what's wrong with it. They will take it off you and send it away. Or ring them and explain. They won't want to loose a valued customer.

You didn't say the screen was cracked. Surely the insurance should cover accidental damage. If it doesn't what's the point of it. I've had my Hd2 for 14 months now and still love it. Cancel the insurance and put the money towards getting the beautiful machine fixed. Don't do it yourself because I've known people who know more than me and you to fook it badly. Good luck. Ps. Get the desire hd in July

Have you considered calling your insurance and (while praying that you don't get put on to the same person you had last time) saying that you cracked the screen an hour ago? This 24 hour rule seems ridiculous.
But yeah, only replace digitizers if you feel confident that you know what you're doing. I've done it for about 6 different phones and iPods, and I'd say that for 3 of those I've ended up having to buy more parts I wasn't expecting to pay for just because I made a tiny mistake.

If you actually made a claim then yeah, I guess you're right. Haha... I don't know. I've stopped with these things recently because I've been so busy, and I hate working on things that aren't my own in case I break something. I was considering buying a cracked HD2 and fixing it up for myself a while ago but the soldering put me off, it's all just a bit too fiddly.
I have my 3d in a billion pieces in a zip lok right now. I purchase da month and a half ago a screen off Ebay, but it never showed up. I need to get a screen ASAP for my phone. Ive been without a functional phone now for almost 2 months and ive had to revert to my Captivate.
I need to know the best place to get a screen assembly, i don't really care what it costs anymore, (around 60 shipped would be nice) but i need my damn phone back.
Anyone have some suggestions where to go outside of Ebay, that's based out of either USA or Canada (canada prefered to avoid customs fees)
Thanks,
Dan
Have you asked the repair tech at a Sprint store to do it? They're in to make money as well. From me traveling across the country, I've had mine repaired anywhere between 20-60 dollars. Might get lucky.

We don't have a sprint carrier here in canada. Otherwise that would be the first place to do it. From what i can see, the LCD and the digitizer is about 60$ on its own, so i can see the whole unit replaced in stores for about 120-200$. Its an easy enough task i thought i would just do it myself. but after not receiving the parts in the mail after a month, im really getting impatient.
Did you ever get this fixed? Amazon.com has digitizers - is that what you need?

Has anyone got any experience with claiming warranty through Amazon? I bought my S3 a few months ago and now there is an issue with the screen showing a pink splodge to the right
I assumed it would go through Samsung for replacement, but I asked Amazon first and they have already have a new one on the way to me! I tried to get out of them whether I would need to include the charger, cable and earbuds in the return, but they were a bit sketchy about that. Obviously they said they wanted the phone back, even if it wasn't in the original packaging, but they didn't really give an answer either way about the other bits. I can't find the earbuds that came with the phone, so I hope it won't cause them to charge me when they process the return
I remember having a kindle replaced once and they said outright to keep the charger and cable and just return the device.
Anyone have any experience with getting a warranty replacement from them with a mobile?
Thanks :good:
I wouldn't worry about earbuds, due to hygiene regulations they can be of no use to them whatsoever!
I haven't had a warranty replacement from Amazon. I have a question though. Did you have to pay extra for the warranty?

No, I just went on their support thingy and described my problem with the screen and that I have had it a few months and asked who I need to contact to get it repaired. They said they will replace it and sent me a new one within a few minutes (should get it on Tuesday) and issued me with a courier pick up for the old one. I was surprised as I thought Samsung would do it, but I was checking with them first anyway. It could be due to the fact I used a mastercard to pay for it and that gives you extra warranty and protection with things like this.
My HTC One S (early fall-to-bits black version) from Amazon UK was exchanged after a few weeks in a similar way... complete and new one arrived.
One good reason to use them.

Yeah, I've never had a problem with Amazon before, they always give good service. I was glad when they said they would handle my problem rather than Samsung!
Did you have to return all the accessories with your phone?
Had to return my Galaxy S because i got caught in heavy rain and wouldn't work and forgot to send earphones and USB cable but they never even asked and gave me a full refund within a day of them getting it.

I did anyway. The new replacement was an all new sealed box.
Yeah, I think this a new sealed boxed one too. I'll send it all back as it came sans the earbuds as they would just chuck 'em anyway.
I bought a "like new" HTC One off of eBay. At first it seemed great and really did look like new.
Unfortunately I've come to realize the speakers are blown. Any audio above 50% volume crackles/buzzes. Sounds HORRIBLE at 90% volume +
Does anyone know if HTC or AT&T will cover their phones under warranty if you're not the original owner? I know with Apple the warranty is tied to the phone, I could buy a iPhone 5 off of eBay today, and if next week it starts acting up I could take it into Apple and they would replace it.
I contacted HTC support and at first of course they said "lets see if its a software problem, reset the phone blah blah" did the factory reset and of course it didn't help. Even when the phone boots up the AT&T jingle is distorted and buzzes. I told them the factory reset didn't fix the problem and the reply I got was something like:
"We are always updating the software to fix bugs. Be on the lookout for updates for your device to see if it fixes your problem."
...so a software update is going to magically repair the hardware of the speakers? Awesome. Anyway, even if they do ask me to send it in for repair do you guys know if it would be covered under warranty since I'm not the original owner?
Or would I be able to walk into AT&T and ask them to repair or replace it? Thanks.
Just call ATT, Tell them the speakers are not working. You have done a hard reset and they still dont work.
Say nothing more. And nothing less. Pay the 15 bucks for 2 day shipping.

I got mine off Ebay as well.. Did they check the s/n, imei, or need a receipt?
I would also like an answer. I bought a used htc one recently and the top speaker is crackling like mad when the volume is about 3/4 the way up.
I know the phone has a one year warranty through htc. Anybody have any luck getting a replacement from htc or at&t?
Does the warranty transfer over to a second owner?
thanks!
Speakers are defective but screen has small crack? Warranty valid?
My phone has the same issue, but it has a very small crack on the screen.
Is the Warranty still valid? Is it true that if the screen is cracked the warranty is invalid?

I'm curious how you made out...did they replace the phone?
I literally just got off the phone with att. They did want to do a reset, but I told them I already did that. The lady, asked how I did it. So say you went into backup/restore. And tried restoring that way. She also asked about the water sensor under the phones flash. If there was any red in it. After that it was address verification, and telling me I'm the best part of att. No 15$ fee, no nothing.
