Wanted: replacement screen for Archos 70

I've had an Archos 70 for about two years, and finally, the inevitable happened... I had it in the front pocket of my trousers, bent down, and cracked the screen. The touchscreen may still work, but it's hard to tell, because most of the display is all whited out. If anyone has an A70 that's broken in some different way, with a working screen, I'd be happy to pay shipping and a reasonable cost for it. Alternatively, if anyone knows a supplier and part number for a replacement screen, I'd appreciate the info.

perhappes Ebay or a other site for used or new units?

[Q] Screen/digitizer replacement, recommended seller(s)?

Hi
I'm about to try replace my screen on my OPO. There are just so many sellers, it's hard to choose one.
Either way I need the type A with the keypad light.
Many sellers does not specify wither which type or if it's with or without the keypad lights. And sometimes the picutures of the product does not match.
I'm very intrested of which seller from eBay/Alibaba etc you have bought from and are satiesfied with the product.
I want some recommendations so my buy is somewhat more % to work
Thanks.

I have seen the following suggested: vifocal This includes the screen, digitizer, and frame, so it's an easier job to fix than some other purchases. You will still need a sticker for holding down the battery.
There is also a suggestion at the top of the page that is just the screen and digitizer. It is on Alibaba.

Thanks for answer. The Vifocal one I have seen as well. But there is only 1 reference to it as I can find and the communication/support was not so good either. So it does not feel like a good/safe choice.
The alibaba has only 5 sellings and only 2 reviews and 1 one them says defective so that is not a good/safe choice either
Was hoping that there are confirmed good sellers with working product by XDA people
I have already stripped down my broken phone into pieces and only need a new screen to install.

Buy from vifocal, I bought mine from eBay and it has touchscreen issues. The top half of screen registers 2 touches for on and renders it useless so now I have to purchase another. Alibaba/vifocal I would recommend, no matter where you purchase it will be slow shipping from China just stay away from eBay. Also you can use a or b screen they just have to be threaded through different holes in the frame

Buy it from the links you find in my thread "Replacement parts".
They are all Top-Sellers

I saw that thread
But, I can't really find anyone who can say that the screen from Alibaba works as it should. The seller only sold 5 of them and only 2 reviews and one of them was defective. Does not seem like a safe bet? Or do you have tried the screen from Alibaba or knows someone who can tell?

Too late answer Bought it 3 weeks ago
I have a new OPO as well, the other will be a spare one if lights not working. Could be a defect and return screen? Not a problem with type A or B screen/connector?
Will try my new screen this week.

Will the screen really stuck good with only 3M tape?
I have tired the screen and it seems to work and now to go ahead with the real install.
Will only tape work or need some glue of some kind? Thanks.

I replaced my screen with one from eBay. First lcd didn't work but the next did work ok.
I attached the new screen with double sided tape, which I used a lot for sure.

I got some time today to rebuild my borken OPO!
The screen works perfectly! Even the buttons lights up! Not as well as my new phone but still. Screen is really well responsive.

I have made a full test and the phone works good! I was a bit worried as it was droven over by my car Hehe
I bought from the AliExpress seller.

I've bought 3 or 4 from China. They're good where the vendor is reputable. Look at the number of units sold and the ratings. They're around 45USD. Removing the assembly from the frame is doable, but replacing just the digitizer is NOT recommended, as I've tried at least 5 of them from various sellers and none worked properly. Plus the digitizer touches the LCD at several points and without LOCA, would create rainbow spots, which would not affect functionality, but esthetically undesirable. There are guides on how to go this is you Goog. Have fun.

I replaced 2 screens on 2 N7, yes, buy the LCD+digitizer+screen combo. Even then, removing the broken screen from the frame is difficult, the melting point of the glue is very high and on both N7 I melted a little bit the frame...
I bought the 2 combo here:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/181285339236?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
One had a dead pixel after a few days and is kind "yellowish", the other one is as OEM and has better color/white balance, so YMMV.

I think i ll go for the 2 combo. I hope that it will not be yellowish. Thank you for the help!

Nexus 5X LCD + Frame

Recently, my Nexus 5X LCD broke from the inside of the phone. The outside is flawless.
On ebay I came across this thing here, wich is the LCD+Digitizer+Frame. Basiclly, it's the whole front part withouth the motherboard and other back parts.
Do you think this is legit OEM screen and should I order it and just switch my parts with this since the only thing that is broken on mine is the LCD screen?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-LG-Go...847502?hash=item51dab812ce:g:U34AAOSwUV9WnMRe
Anyone tried doing something similar?
I don't want to use a certified LG repeair service since in my country, they charge you 4x as much for something like LCD display.
50$ and self-repair seems legit to me.
Im scared of getting a hoax screen and stuff

I think you can't find oem parts on ebay because I read that oem parts are available only on LG repair service. Probably on ebay you can find only copies of the oem product but the most of the times they work well as an original part.

Have anyone personally tried any of this parts?
I need to replace LCD+Digitizer+Frame too, but I would like to buy a part that has a good feedback by someone...

I'm going to try that OEM later this month and report here. Fingers crossed for it to be good. I dont care if its OEM or not as long as it works as an OEM.

I found out that many sellers claim to sell the original LG part. Just search around for "ACQ88485501".
Do you think it is true or is it just a trick to sell the same part with an higher price...?

I ordered the part two weeks ago. It should get here tomorrow or the day after. I will post resulta when I switch the display.

Just an update; It arrived later than I anticipated, but that was not the companies fault. Anyway, the display is top grade, top notch, whatever you want to call it. It arrived in excellent condition, it works just like an original one and looks the same. The coating is properly applied and it just looks so damn gorgeous. I think it's even better than what I originaly had, but that might be due to a defective screen altogether. In summary, it worked out great for me, and I switched the whole front part of the device. So yea, my Nexus 5x is awasome again, can't wait to try 7.1.1. I ordered it from fixez.com

Ok, very good, thanks for your feedback.
Can you confirm that this is the part? https://www.fixez.com/store/lg/lg-google-nexus-5x/lg-nexus-5x-display-assembly-with-frame
But... Do you live in the USA I suppose... I will look what are shipping prices and so on to Italy.
Thanks!

Yes, that is the part. I live in Croatia. The shipping was arround 30 USD for me, it cost me arround 70 USD and I bought the 16 piece precision tool pack for 9.99 USD also. If I had gone to a shop for repairs here in Croatia, it would cost me arround 140 USD, I checked, so this is a realyl cheap alternative. The parts are easy to replace. There are numerous youtube videos about it, just be gentle Good luck:laugh:

You convinced me, I just bought the part from fixez, I spent 70$ too!
Does it already contains adhesives for the camera, battery and so on? Or do I need to buy them, like the 3m red tape...?
Thanks!

Screen replacement is really expensive...

Hi everybody,
I broke the screen of my Pixel 2XL.
In truth only the digitizer is broken but replacing only the digitizer seems impossible without proper tools.
I was searching for a screen replacement but they are really expensive!
Any suggestion on where to get it? I've read that there are compatible ones...
Do they worth the expense?
Where can I find theme?
Thank you in advance for your reply.

I got my replacement from Fixez.
They weren't the cheapest option at $162 U.S., but it was an OEM display.

Wow! Anyway to just make the phone look like there is no damage and get a warranty exchange for it?

I have a cheaper alternative for broken screen. One day my phone flew out of my pocket at 100km/h on motorcycle, cause I like to save some bucks I found an original 2xl screen on aliexpress, there are some defected screens as they say, like couple pixels doesn't work or it has some imperfections. I took one for 70€ shipped, with 2 not working pixels that you almost can't see. They include tools to change it, but u need a seal. So if you don't mind imperfections it's really good way to save some money! I hope it helps someone.
