Hello,
Sorry if this may be the wrong section but I'm just enquiring about screen replacement.
My other half decided it would be a good idea to smash the screen (both outer and LCD) on her S3. EBay are selling replacements for about 150 GBP however fonefix will replace it for us for 120 GBP.
If that's the case are there any cheaper places to purchase the parts I need and do it myself? I'd much rather save myself some money if I can.
Thanks for reading

Help!! Need a replacement screen for my BA anybody have a spare or know where to get a replacement screen for a reasonable price.Not sure how I broke it but there is a crack down the center of the screen and now it w'ont work.
I am really sorry for you. I cracked my iPAQ screen a while ago and found a replacement at ipaqrepair.co.uk....but I guess they are only for iPAQs
I know how you must feel
Thanks will check it out anyway and yes totally gutted I use the BA for everything like having my right arm cut off ,
Have noticed that it is only the glass that is cracked it is not bleeding at all and i think that the digitizer is only mlfunctioning because of the crack is it possible just to replace the glass panel and not the lcd display?
Try calling HTC Europe at 08712-23-0217. Leave a message and they will call you back in a day time. Just tell them your problem and see how much would they charge for it. I've got my under warranty HTC Charmer to them TWICE for some speaker/motherboard problem, and so far so good. Their service is better than I expect from a Taiwan company.

Yes it is, there are 2 distinct types of digitiser though, the sony and the toppolly one. There is another poster selling just a digitiser, I went into more detail in that thread. HTCEurope a: won't repair and XDA IIs and b: won't swop just the digitiser, they swop the entire LCM assembly.

Just been quoted £125 to repair the screen by a company called Apex, trouble is the phone only cost me £150 in my book thats beyond econmical repair if it was a car it would be a write off.I think it will have to be an insurance job (get a free one with bank account) unless someone comes up with a reasonable price on a used one.

The sony one he has can be 'widenend' to fit any LCD so it doesn't matter what's in your phone - just remove the warranty seal completley - the odds are they won't repair your handset they'd just replace anyway if you claim on insurance as they would have to use new parts - no trawling ebay for them to fix your phone....
Richard
Well guys sent my BA off to the insurance company and had a phone call today said they could not repair or replace it, and then THEY DESTROYED MY PHONE and then they said they can give me a cash settlement or the choice of Nokia n91 or the n90 what do you guys think, what should I go for? and more to the point how much would the cash settlement be as you can no longer get the blue angel anymore new that is.
Anybody been in this situation would not mind the n91 but it is not satnav capable at the moment and I need this capability.
Check the prices on somewhere like expansys, get the more expensive, flog it on ebay, buy a 2nd hand blueangel.
I sold a boxed MDA III for just £100 on there the other week :-(
PM me and I might be able to help if you need it sourcing one.
Can't fix it my @$$.....muppets.
They should not have destroyed your phone and infomed you after the event IMO.
EDIT - IIRC expansys do still have the [email protected] £600. Ask them for a cheque!!!!!... :twisted:
Richard
Yes was surprised they did not ask me first but oh well still have the mini s just like having the bigger screen for sat nav loooking t expansys think your right I'll go for the money.
Update insurance have coughed up £450 not bad considering I only got it for £150 :lol: :lol:
Hey guys
I dropped my phone today and cracked the screen a lil' bit.
Do you think it's worth replacing it or should I go for another phone? Also, can you tell me approximately how much would replacing it cost?
Thanks!
you'd better check the price on ebay ..! He also served overseas shipping I hope you get a cheaper !!!!
i think it is 20-25euros just for the screen...
I replaced the screen on my fiance's Rose without too much difficulty. It was a bit of a pain in the but doing a complete disassembly of the device, and the replacement screen was a good bit darker than the original, even with the brightness cranked up. It was worth it though as her's was busted up pretty bad. It was on Ebay for maybe $40 USD.
Jason
Yep, found the screen on ebay for 30$.
Contacted HTC Germany. They told me it would cost between 125 and 250 EUR, depending on the damage of the screen. Also sent them a pic of the screen, in order to get more precise info about the cost. When I have the exact figures, I'll post them here.
wtf...for 250euro you can buy a new rose...i suggest you fit it yourself..
So yesterday I was getting in my car and wearing sweat panths. My GNote slid out of my panths and I closed the door on the screen, the timing could not have been more perfect. Not that I would ever want to but I bet money that I couldn't reproduce such a perfectly timed event. The worst part about this was the Note had 7 Hours left on eBay , bidding ended at 585.00. I couldn't stop the auction bc it was less the 12hrs befor the end. I refunded and emailed the buyer and informed him of the situation, I hope he agrees to cancel the auction or else I'll be charged with the selling fee.
Condition of Note:
Shattered screen basically on the entire left side. The screen doesn't turn on but the captivate buttons work at the bottom. Small crack on frame of the screen.
So my questions is this: what is my best option in regards to getting rid of the GNote?
Should I sell it as is on eBay?
Contact Samsung and see if they can repair the device?
Find a local vendor?
I was going to buy one galaxy note just like yours. I contacted the Samsung repair people they told the will charger 70 just to take a look at the phone and then they will let you know how much it will cost me.The final amount they gave me to repair was 200 $. Good luck
I would compare the 2. Price for a broken note on ebay, and price for a fixed one (Minus the cost of repair). You can look at completed auctions to see the costs. Im sure someone would pay over 100 bux for the broken one.
It looks like the best screen price is 89$ shipped and can be done in 30-40 min with a blow dryer/heatgun to separate LCD from the bezel.
However, what is the cost of sending it to Texas for LG to replace it including screen cost? They refuse to provide a quote overthe phone, and I don't want a crazy quote of 250$ once they receive it.
Or does anyone have any repair shops they have use with a reasonable LCD replacement cost for the E970?

it wont be a big deal to do it. when using a heat gun you have to be carefull. to much heat can wreck the LCD if thats not cracked along with the tsp (touch screen) im a tech at sprint and we are not aloud to take apart LTE device(sucks) but when you use the heat gun to take off the cracked screen you will either have to re-heat the adhesive thats still in there or find some new adhesive to apply. when you are using the heat gun start at the lower setting on heat. if it does not have the setting to do that either take your time in quick passes or use a blow dryer. if you need any other help send me a pm and ill try to get you going again. i would compare the part price vs. using insurance and paying the 150.00 if you have tep.
if you dont have tep. get ahold of me and ill get you a work around for your situation.
also if the cracks are less than 2 of them and less then 1" a piece they can replace it - cheers!

Hello,
a collegue of mine bit(!) on his s2. He wanted to hold it with his mouth and probably bit a little too hard. Now the display is not turning on, despite the phone works as expected otherwise.
So, I'm looking for a cheap repair. As I didn't find any damages when opening the S2, my best guess is that I need to replace the whole LCD, or even better (since easier) to replace the whole front frame.
I live in Germany and didn't find any good offers for a new display yet. Can you give me a hint where tu buy one? I found one on ebay, $ 20 plus shipping which is slightly more than I expected.
Other repair suggestions are also welcome.
Thanks in advance.
That's very cheap. And probably doesn't work. Ebay is a big risk. Go to the shop and pay for the mistake. Sorry but this is my best advice. :thumbup:
+^ this is true........
Everywhere i've found in the UK wants between £60 and £80 for a replacement screen.......
The cost of the screen *is* beginning to drop......but not by that much........
