[Q\W] looking for a digitizer

Hi guys,
So I scratched my screen, and one tried using Displex to get rid of it.
After many many minutes sent last night and tonight, I've given up hopes of Displex working, or of finding a way to get rid of the scratches.
So, I'm looking for a digitizer now. The cheapest ones I can find are over 30 dollars on eBay.
Know any other places that sell them at better prices?

Hey you should just goto your dealer or carrier from whom you purchased the phone and ask him to replace the digitizer i think its better to pay a little more than getting a cheap digitizer as it may just spoil your entire desire experience or if the scratches are bare minimum you could put a scratch guard on the screen and continue using it. i would recommend contacting HTC service center or your dealer if the scratches are really deep than purchasing of e-bay or something.
Or if it's insured just oops dropped it!! -- make sure accidental damage is covered by the insurance first lol
EDIT[] the ones from Ebay are sometimes for cheap chinese clones so better to go to official place if this is the route you are going to take or wait for someone to respond that knows a reputable ebay seller

LCD Screen Broken...

My girlfriend shattered the Digitizer and LCD in her phone. I've figured out I have the Sony SLCD version.
Now does anyone know a good place to get a replacement one. I've searched on Google and everything is north of $70. If that's what I have to pay so be it.
So what I am really asking does anyone know of anywhere online I can purchase the Sony SLCD for a cheaper price?
Any help is appreciated thank you.
Not sure but you may try your luck on Ebay. Maybe get a used phone for cheaper than that part, or perhaps a "parts unit" as long as it hasn't been destroyed.
Check eBay I found it for $10 for the touch screen and $64.99 for the lcd. Both have free shipping.

Cheapest screen assembly (led + digitizer)

Hello all,
So after the nth drop, my note has a crack in the upper left corner of the screen. Not an issue yet, but I can foresee it delaminating eventually.
I have found the screen assembly on fleabay for ~$180.
it's this the cheapest price available or is there a cheaper one somewhere? I imagine these eBay sellers must be running a significant profit margin.
Thanks in advance,
Roman
Sell your note and keep 180 $ and add it together and buy a new phone.

You can buy a second hand note with $250...
So, yeah, just sell it (maybe hard), and just buy a new phone.

Maybe. Is there a member on this board who has superbricked their phone and wants to sell it? I would pay about 100 bucks for the screen, as long as there are no scratches.
It is possible to replace just the glass...
There are many videos on Youtube for the S3.. I did the same with my Note

broke phone - need advice

I cracked the screen on my g pro so I ordered a new screen kit. while attempting to replace it I ripped the coaxial cable from the tiny metal thing it was inside of.... can that coaxial cable be ordered somewhere? should I just sell the phone and screen replacement for parts? any advice would be appreciated. I don't actually need the phone anymore, I ordered an LG Flex.. so what should I do with the G pro?
I'm gonna assume you mean you damaged the ribbon cable on the new screen replacement? If that's so then it's up to you. If you no longer really need the phone then you could just sell it for parts. But it would be worth more if you fix it. If all you damaged was the ribbon cable on the new screen then just buy another one. Or if it's not bad you could try to just adhere the cable back to the screen and continue the repair and see if it works. If what you're saying is you ripped the cable from the connector COMPLETELY then yeah. You're gonna need to buy another replacement screen.
Sorry if I'm making you more confused. I'm just trying to picture exactly what you did. If you could post a pic that would be good.
If you are referring to this little wire.
[See attached photo] Then yes you can order it. On Amazon or eBay. They run about 5 bucks.

i want to try fixing it this method https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5e3r_2N15c
but this guy is telling me to buy like 7 items, its all in the videos discription, but why he tells me that?
There is a separate charger you can use for your battery, purchase an extra battery with the charger that charges your battery for you without it being in your phone. I have 3 batteries, 1 in my phone,1 in my wallet, and 1 that stays charged on the charger. So I rarely charge my phone just switch the batteries if that helps with your charging issue. It's a hassle, but a start if you don't want to purchase a new phone or can't fix your charge port.

what about the cracked screen/glass. and i want to repair this phone to sell it after
I recommend you to have a professional do it. I tried to fix mine and the LCD didn't have enough glue (mfg defect) and the whole thing came out. I end up with a broken LCD that cost me $225 to fix.
Yeah if you haven't repaired anything else like this before I would send it in.
The digitizer is glued to the LCD and not easy to take off.

Just go on eBay and buy the lcd and the digitizer and the frame together. It's kind of expensive, but its better than taking the LCD and the digitizer apart. Everything you have to do is swap the internals from your broken phone to the new phone. Also make sure you YouTube some videos on how to do it and you will save yourself around 100 bucks. Good luck. I did this on my own and it was a piece of cake.

:crying:..USA, hello hi.. i live in europe: Norway
plz JUST tell what parts i could get off from eBay and fix it myself or my father wiill do it profecionaly :cyclops:
Please not That expensive parts, there are allways cheaper copies around from china or whatever i could just buy that instead
i just want the phone to WORK because its ****ing Dead for ages now:silly:
Ok the parts you need are the Lcd screen with the digitizer and the frame. There are no other cheaper parts from China since this are OEM parts. How ever, if youre Screen is broken and your digitizer is not you can buy the front LCD screen alone for about 8 dollars on eBay, but the only way to know this is if you can have the phone on. If there is no black spots on the screen and its just the front screen thats shattered then you dont need to buy the LCD digitizer and the frame. You only need the front screen LCD which I mentioned above and is around 8 dollars.
