HTC Universal Parts (Screen) Needed - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

I pulled my Universal out of my pocket on Saturday and I have a crack down the screen on the left side.
Does anyone know a good store with Universal parts? I found a store that will repair it for me for US$250, but that is a bit too much. Assuming the screen is US$100 - US$150, I'll do it myself. I can still use it, but I really want to fix this because I love it very much.
If someone has a broken Universal that has a good LCD / Digitizer assembly, I'll buy it from you for US$100 or whatever you think is fair.

screen available on ebay
I've seen them on ebay, but they aren't cheap, the combo screen digitizer is around $200. If you want to do it yourself, there is the factory service manual on the ftp site, it's an illustrated step by step guide for disassembly and reassembly.
here is a link for the manual
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Manuals/confidential
I would say good luck, but the manual looks pretty good so you should't need it, just make sure you use an anti static pad and antistatic gloves or grounding strap.

I replaced the screen in an iPaq 3850 (pda-only) a few years ago, so I'm not really afraid of doing it... I just need to find the part in the first place! haha
Thanks for your input.

Just search for "lcd qtek 9000" on ebay and you'll find plenty of sellers of screens. I bought one myself for $180 a while ago. Worked like a charm.

From the XDA-Wiki Click on "Look up the HTC part number". then get the part number, or take apart your phone if you want to be sure. Search for the part number on google.com, froogle.google.com and ebay.
searching with froogle for TD028STEB1 I just found one on ebay. BuyItNow price of $60 with $19 shipping (plus a free screen guard). I expect that if you look a little more you may be able to get one slightly cheaper.
edit: opps I looked the one for Magician, Wizard, Apache, but you get the idea.

Looked for ACX526AKM-7 and found one store on ebay that sells it. Oddly enough the same product from the same store without that serial number in the name is between $4 and $14 cheaper (depending on bidding or buy it now).
The one without is $149.99 starting bid ($159.99) and the one with the serial in the name is $169.00 buy it now (seller "i like parts"). Comes with a tool and screenprotector.

Housing FacePlate Black or Gray for HTC Universal

Hi All,
Housing Face Plate Black or Gray for HTC Universal available at Shope2.com
http://www.shope2.com/Product.php?cpath=1_171_178
Cheers!
Anyone sussed out what currency the site's in?
If it's £/UK, that is some insanely high pricing, but I doubt it's in £.
If it's $/US, I reckon that's still over the odds for a 2nd hand casing, I paid that price for a 2nd hand M5000 casing that also contains a working phone.
If it's Yen, please let me know, as I'll definitely buy one to fix mine as I've cracked the casing and the hinge is a tiny bit dodgy.

The currency is in US$. What do you think guys? Is it worth it to replace at this amount? I'll put on hold first my request.
Note: They are selling only not included the service to replace the housing, if service is included then may be i will consider

cnn.cn has a great replacement screen, I bought one from them a few weeks ago - good price and a very fast delivery.
Housings for Uni are around $29 on Ebay or for a bit extra with a matching keypad.

Replacement screen

I have been trying to find a replacement screen for aria, but everywhere I look they are insanely expensive or sold out. Is anyone else finding these for 40 or 50 bucks? I have looked everywhere, so if you have a tip please help a guy out here!
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Cheapest I've seen is $80 on eBay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/New-OEM-HTC-Ari...482823?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item27b477ecc7
Just found this site that lists them for $45 but they show backordered. Maybe you can contact them to see when they'll get more stock in, if ever.

Cheap htc digitizers
This is my first post, so I can't post links, but search on DealExtreme and you will find cheap digitizers for HTC.
These are probably not genuine, but worth the gamble?
Are any of these models compatible with the Aria?

Can get them on eBay though for ~$50.
wholesalegadgetparts.com has them for a little under $50.00. OEM markings, it fits, it works, fast shipping. Mine arrived in 2 days regular post (free). Follow guide on repairsuniverse.com. Be careful with the sticky stuff that holds the screen to the frame or you will have to replace it too.
Hello all.
It is compatibile digitizer and lcd between aria and gratia?
I see on Ebay that touch screen for aria is cheaper than for gratia.
Yeah it's the same.
Digitizer
Did you get the screen yet? My wife shattered her screen 3 days after the release of the Intruder (Aria) I found a new one online for $45 with tax and shipping. had to play with the stickers a little to stop light from shinning out of the sides but it was real easy replacement .....Ill look through my records if you still need it.
does the digitizer works like the original one? no problems at all?
I'm wondering if you can get an original one, beside buying a phone for parts.

[Q] Oops.. Broke my screen wrestling with the GF. What replacement is the best?

Title says all. I was goofing around and had my phone in my pocket and landed on it cracking the screen in the corner. Digitizer still works but where can I find a real honest to god OEM replacement screen?

I don't want to get a cheap ripoff replacement but this looks legit (I guess) Anyone care to give an expert input on if I should get this or not?
Much thanks in advance. (Back to my Moto RAZR V3 til then)
are you sure you broke the digitizer, the lcd screen, or both?
the digitizer should cost you around $20
what you posted is the actualy lcd screen
I would buy from a US seller just avoid any complications.
check the feedback rating on the ebay seller you are buying from
chances are, they have sold the exact prduct before. See what other buyers have to say about their purchase
The digitizer is fine. I checked the function using droid explorer screencast. I cracked the LCD.
I just don't want to replace the screen with some knockoff poor quality LCD.
Thanks for the reply.
Then buying any lcd screen on ebay should be fine. You should understand that generally people on ebay aren't trying to sell you fake or non quality products, unless its blatantly a scam or too good to be true. Buy from a US seller just in case something goes, its easier to deal with. China and other overseas sellers may be able to get you the same product for less, but transit times can take a while. And paypal only has a 45 day grace period for opening disputes to get your money back, in case things go terribly wrong.

And there's many teardown guides on youtube to get you going. Easy peasy, as long as you're gently and can handle things carefully
By the way, Use the thanks button. A lot better than saying thanks in a post
Gotcha.. I whacked that button for you.
Tearing into the phone won't be an issue. The seller I have linked above is stateside so I will go ahead and purchase that and hopefully be tossing the V3 into backup phone status.

[Q] Replacement speakers??

Broke the digitizer, so I replaced it and when I did I also got a white housing. In that process I broke the speakers so only one works and the other one sounds like crap. Looked all over online and cant find any replacements. Anybody know where I can get some?
Check ebay, not just local but worldwide, theres a chance you may find some from a spares/repairs shop, especially from China.
Theres no guarantee but it's the only place I can think of.
Otherwise look for a seller on ebay who sells spare parts and simply ask him if he can a hold of some speakers for you from a damaged phone.
Hey thanks for the response. I looked on eBay but no dice. After searching and searching, I changed what I waS searching to "xperia play loud speaker" and found them. Problem is, one is on alibaba, which is a buy in bulk directly from the manufacturer where you have to submit a query and, well it just takes forever. And another that once I got to the cart it was all in Arabic.
In any case, I finally found them from a uk store for 8 euros a strip of 10. About to buy them so I'll report in case anyone ever needs them. They are super easy to replace, once you get the glued in factory ones ripped out.

That's great you found them. In some cases it's extremely difficult to find spares/repairs.
Best place is to look online or on ebay.
Otherwise if the worst comes to the worst you may have to send it to the manufacturer to repair.
Glad you managed to find what you wanted, quite cheap too costing you just 8 euros.
Their tiny anyway weighing a few grams and therefore shouldn't be expensive.

Screen Replacement

So...I polished my HWatch a little too much and wore off part of the bezel.....In my incessant searching, I found this.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Ori...3489-4c2a-acd6-843db467ef02&priceBeautifyAB=0
I hope this helps anyone looking for a replacement bezel / screen. I purchased one myself....waiting for delivery. However, it does not come with a side button. I plan on using mine....but have no idea how to place it on the new bezel. The seller indicates one needs a professional tool, but does not specify what.
Update: They indicate that they have cases with the button. I'm looking forward to replacing my beat up one. $14 for a shiny new watch, can't be beat!
Thanks for your suggestions. May i see what damage have you done to your bezels? Just out of curiosity
Thanks for the information! The contact points on the back of my HW are completely burned. I ordered replacement case + back for $10, allowing me to repair!
Screens are not in stock. Any other link?

https://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_nkw...+1.TRS0&_osacat=0&_odkw=huawei+watch+1+screen
Bought a new screen due to burn in, but I can't seem to separate the screen from the frame.
I'm sure there used to be an ifixit teardown for this watch (that I followed when I changed the battery a few years ago, but it's not there anymore!
Any ideas how to get the screen out?
