[Q] Where to buy replacement screen

Something fell off my shelf and feel directly on my phone earlier, cracked the screen to hell. Actual screen part is alright, but the glass is destroyed.
I have been looking for a few hours trying to find a place that has them in stock but to no avail. I am looking for a US or other North American based seller as I do not have the time to wait for a shipper from Hong Kong or elsewhere in Asia.
Does anybody know of a website or specific seller on eBay that is reputable or just has them in stock, any help at all would be very appreciated.
Thanks

the only way youre going to get the a super amoled screen replacement is contacting samsung.... samsung does not distribute their super amoled screen. other sellers "Claim" its super amoled,but tis really just a cheap LCD screen.

I would be willing to take a look at these sellers. I've gone through Google and previous posts here rather thoroughly but cannot find a place that has them in stock.

+ 1. Where to buy? ETA on back in stock?

Bought my replacement screen from mission repair.com. Broke the keypad cable so had to order from ebay out of nj.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

I used this vendor: http://www.repairsuniverse.com/samsung-vibrant-t959-lcd-touch-screen-replacement.html
But they're out of stock at the time.... Be sure to be very careful with the ribbon attaching the captivate buttons to the screen, and in general, just take dismantling the phone slowly, and it'll go fine.

got mine from ww.globaldirectparts.com/category-s/6611.htm
it was way cheaper back then though. $65 or so ...

does anyone know if the capitvate screen would fit on the vibrant??? please let me know

I just broke the GPS connector of my vibrant. It still works fine except for GPS. I can sell my vibrant w/ broken GPS at $65 + shipping from California. Do u want it? Pls send me a message, if someone's interested in my phone. Thx.

the guy who posted above you they sell parts for all phones

I recently bought a screen for a friend's captivate from http://stores.ebay.com/sbstoreonline. The quality of the screen was the same as on my vibrant and the price was right ($62.99). I'm certain that what I bought was a Samsung part adn not a knockoff. The double sided sticky tape was applied to the back of the screen - all I had to do was peel off the plastic covering the tape and lay it down (I saw some adds that show a seperate adhesive kit).
Shipping took about 3 weeks...

Looking to replace a shattered digitizer... Looing for a reliable to place to buy

First off, I'm not sure if this is appropriate forum for this, but since it is technically a phone piece, it may fall under Accessories. If not, the mods can move it to the relevant forum.

Hey all. My wife'x Nexus 5 screen was shattered by a small vase falling on it.
I'm searching around on ebay and amazon and the price is coming out to about $80-100 for a screen/digitizer replacement.
I'm posting here to confirm if anyone else has any place they can recommend. My primary fear is that the replacement I might receive may be a cheaper/bad LCD (viewing angle wise). Is that a possibility? Or are all the replacements basically the same screen?
Thanks.

I usually get it off eBay. But there was this one seller on Amazon that I used for my N4 that was in the US and quick. Don't know if they are selling a N5 display but PM me and I can give you the deets. $80-100 is about the going rate on eBay at this time. I actually will recommend spending the extra $10-15 more for the frame included. It is a quick swap of internals at that point. Then flip the broken display up on ebay and recoup about $20 back.

Yup exactly. Really quick switch out. Just swap internals. Getting the display off of the frame is annoying since LG uses a silicon adhesive to bond the display to the frame. This makes it more resistant to heat. It is better to just sell the broken one to someone who has the time to separate all 3 components.

I am also looking to replace my broken screen. I know this is a 2 month old thread but the price listing for that right now is over $300. So I'm just wondering if I can ask you if you got your part and where? Thanks.

Ya that was the first place I saw when I initially started looking for the part but they seem to be sold out mostly and more expensive than other listings I've seen, I guess because they are OEM parts. I'll keep an eye on the site but continue looking.

I would like to order off of ebay, problem is I have zero experience ordering from dealers on ebay. What should I be looking for from sellers other than their ratings?
The pricing seems to be $1 to $50 difference for the screen + frame varying from China to the States but offer what seems to be the same product.

[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.

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

http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Full-LC...037834?hash=item41ab227aca:g:RU8AAOSwEa5XPtRO

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

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?

Any ideas how to get the screen out?
